Glamouring PVP gear

[Synner]

I've seen alot of articles about Glamouring your PvE gear with PvP gear but is there any articles about glamouring PvP gear with PvE gear? The i100 PvP looks awesome but the i70 stuff isn't all that great looks wise. Is there talk of this happening at some point in time? Maybe I didn't delve far enough into the PvP threads or maybe there is an article talking about this. Any help would be much appreciated.

There is no quantative point, which is probably why it hasn't been discussed. pve gear relative to pvp of the same ilvl is superior stat wise in pve environments, and glamours do not display in pvp arenas. I imagine it is possible, but glamouring pvp gear just to use it as a town set seems like too much work.

Yeah i'm hoping they get rid of the Glamours not displaying in the arena. I ask because I have been pvping alot lately. I'm a Whm mage and I'm not fond of the old Feather cap and vest look. I'd like to have my PvE gear look when fighting so maybe I can atleast die with some dignity. I could also see the potential to maybe add another element to PvPing. Let's say I add the gladius gear look to my character. I may be perceived as a Dragoon or tank and maybe this would make me less of a target right off the bat. First thing you here when starting a PvP match is "Kill the Healer!!!!"

That is the whole point why glamours don't work in pvp though, which is why glamours will not be allowed in pvp. They designed the system around full disclosure of what people are. Heck when people started wearing identical looking gear in the 30 bracket to hide which mage was which, they patched it so the text appears as the name now. The element already existed and they killed it.

Bummer. Darn those free thinkers using cunning and wits to get ahead in PvP! Oh well; maybe I'll take a morale hit and through on an eye patch to throw people off

Yeah, right until you start casting medica II+regen prep before the gates open, you sure fooled the enemy team for the pre-match

Exactly. They are going to know I'm a healer no matter what. The fact you can't glamour PVP gear is just plain dumb.

Why not Glamour it for around town, I do it to the i90.

I do that as well. I am just not a fan of the i70 pvp gear. It'll be different when I can equip the r40 gear but that'll be awhile.
