Less robes, please

[Korbash]

I agree that the current armors for the mages are generally not pretty and more of the same with not much diversity. Too many robes and not much else. One game I love the armors sets is Guild Wars, and I wish we could get mages sets more like in Guild Wars. There each class has a distinct unique look and still has diversity, for females per example you could get a dress set or pants wih a top instead. I'll show the armors my alts I had there.

My two elementalists:



My two mesmers:



My monk (healer class), my necromancer and my ritualist:

I have nothing against robes. I like some of them, actually. What I WOULD like to see more of is unisex pants. Granted, it's not as bad as it was in XI where pants on a guy would be hot pants on a girl, but alot of the caster sets have panties, culottes (may as well be panties) and skirts (the demon set skirts aren't terrible, but still short). All I want is a pair of pants!

This is one reason I do like tank gear. We don't usually get miniskirts or panties instead of breeches.

NO! WE NEED MOAR PALETTE SWAPS! Why put effort into making new gear when you can dye an old piece and call it new

Great game if you're into multiple melee classes. Pretty damn bad if you're a mage wearing the same damn crap every single job.

You're bad at designing gear and jobs, SE. Now go ahead and ban me cause I don't even care. I barely sign in once a day for mini cactpot anyway.

Step it up and stop the cash shop nonsense. I don't want to melee. I never have played a melee class in other mmos. Call me crazy, I don't care.

We need more mage effort SE.

What does the cash shop have to do with this discussion? There's barely anything in it, anyway. It's not like the great variety of mage-applicable glamours that we're missing is gated behind some $3 paywall...

But yes, if they simply relaxed the glamour restrictions, a lot of the complaining would die down. Keep quest-related, Job-specific looks restricted, but free up the rest.

Personally, I want more gear that actually looks good, not gear that's from another job/class.
But I wouldn't mind if they let up on it. Yeah let guys wear dressies, but it is taboo if we wear metal as a healer.

Also for the CS thing: Stop putting past event items in it. It's stupid.
Wouldn't be so bad if these current events wasn't housing only when only 1 out of every 10,000 people has a house lol.

[NozomiKei]

This sounds a lot like the post that got me banned, fellow mage!

More risque stuff for casters (that isn't exclusively sexy on females) please! T_T

Level-appropriate gear is one thing. What's really bad though is that there's not nearly enough glamour options either - everyone's bored of low level pieces by the time they reach 50; seasonal pieces are just that: seasonal (many of them even combines badly with others); and most of the few genuine glamour pieces is so incredibly gated behind insane criteria that they're nigh unobtainable, thus making them overpriced too - shouldn't be charged a buttload of gil for common clothes, really. (I understand they had to find a way to keep crafters and gatherers relevant...but this was a bad choice.) I do believe at least some of the sense of same-ness could be alleviated with more varied and more easily accessible glamour outfits.

And to add, I'd really like some skirts without the leg warmers/ thigh high stockings. Glamouring skirts with ie: the Lady's clogs and Slippers looks silly. Plz SE? <3
