Gear over looks

[Luxx]

Yeah, the Glamour System is great, though I do wish lower-level players had access to it. No real reason why that can't happen.

I'd say because the cooler looking gear is higher levels, plus you need the glamour crystal for x job to get it done. You'd have time to collect gil and all just before you can up and glamour.

It's silly but y'know the majority of this game has really crappy gear till 50, even then as a SCH/healer I still look like crap.
Look like a damn Princess Zebra in my CT gear. The Daylight star whichamallcity looks like I'm the Pope. It's kinda bad man. The rest doesn't look bad.
Feel like they just super lazy till 50, you get rehased cult looking hemp subligars all day.

He is still not completely wrong. Glamour is great but I'd love more options in whm gear instead of another variation of the pope look. Pvp gear is excellent in this reagard - the new swan set is a breath of fresh air and looks insanely cool. On the other hand, myth gear and AF look almost the same, and from royal to soldiery, to some of the hm dungeon drops*look alike.

Glamour is a double-edged sword, though. For everyone making a cool-looking set, there's five people who transform everything they wear into bikinis or the "omg you can see panties!" WHMshorts. I like the "jungle Amazon" set I made for my PLD, but there are often times I regret the glamour system...

And then there's the Roe-man on my server who wears a cone hat (sugarloaf, i think?), subligar, and then dyes everything coral pink. Yeeeargh....

So if I read this correctly, when you get the Glamour quest at 50 and complete it, that ability is unlocked for all the other classes too right? Or is this an character specific type thing like Chocobos?

It is unlocked for all other classes on a single character yes, much like your Grand Company Chocobo. If you wanted to do all of this on another character though...well, your current char=/=another.

It's not a double-edge sword when you put it this way because it gives people a good bit of freedom to do what they want...with a few restrictions, of course.

All DoM gear looks terrible. Nothing I would ever want to wear in real life.
Glamour does not help.
Luckily there was the Lightning event with the gear.
