You want skirts on guys? I don't think we really need crossdressing....

Would you be upset with a kilt? I mean, most people joke that it's basically a skirt, but few *seriously* consider it cross-dressing.

You can get a less cumbersome menu by opening the Repair action through the Actions & Traits menu. It looks (almost) the same as the NPC mender, and you can just select categories and mash "repair all" (though you have to repeat it for each of the 7 repair classes). The problem is if you have any damaged item in a category that your crafter can't yet repair -- it'll refuse to repair everything, instead of only repairing what is possible.

You can do it very fast on a controller if you have all your crafting gear sets and the repair window on a crossbar.

Holy crap, that's the best thing I've seen all night.

I'm a cross dresser. Just what is your problem with it?

That's not cross dressing that's a mail skirt. A functional alternative to the steel codpieces etc. on full sets of plate armor. I also have no problem with kilts, but I don't call them skirts. I have Scottish heritage.

Doesn't really justify for being lazy to do something new with the Weapons instead of just changing some sort of Colour and Glow.

Personally, I'm more concerned about the methods of obtaining Alexandrite (aside from Hunts) at this point. The aesthetic concern is something that can be addressed once we actually see the new weapon in action.

I mean what do you expect at this point. Recycle it and throw a glow on has been their method of showing "This weapon is stronger" since the original +1 relics.

Nevermind the fact that most of the end-game armors are either recycled models or shared between multiple classes as well.

My Summoner Book changed a lot switching to Atma. There are a lot of changes underneath the glow effects. It's mainly just the overall shape of the weapons that hasn't changed.

I mean, no, I’m not sorry. Male-specific gear that comes to mind, hm… racial clothes that everybody starts with, under-things, and uh… the Valentione-outfit - even that is just a recolor of the CUL AF

Man, I am still po'd about that. I didn't expect to be able to dress my character up in a frilly skirt, but I expected some sort of cute frilly/heart shaped apron at least. A recolour of an existing item when female characters got something genuinely unique was really annoying. Same deal with the spring dress. I assumed that there would be a cute spring (not nautical) themed set for guys too. I'm not asking for skirts (though I don't care if that's the route they choose to take) but I want there to be equal numbers of UNIQUE items.
