Less robes, please

[Cynfael]

As has been said many times, simply relaxing restrictions on the existing glamour system would alleviate many complaints.

If the tank can run around in a voluminous gown while wearing a snowman head, why can't the mage choose to use the appearance of a roguish chestpiece or an armored long coat?

Yeah, I'd like something like the Kirimu coat myself.

Other than that, I'm looking forward to the Lv60 SMN AF.

I want more battle-like robes. If not, more eccentric robes, and not that Zoro stuff from our AF2 armor >.>

I've been pretty mad at healer gear for a while, I've been wanting to make a more 'tribal' looking healer but so far I found nothing good with mage gear.

On a slight different subject, I also really wish they would start making healer gear more 'unisex' looking again… I'm the first to put my male character in a skirt, but unless it's your thing the last two healing set from ST and WOD can just look so ridiculous on males, especially Highlanders and Roes, and the new WHM i60 gear seem to be made the same. Bara character looking like a nun? Ehhhh.

For now I'm just hoping they don't ruin the male version of Astrologian, though I personally wouldn't mind having that fancy dress to change from the ugly pink/violet ones we have...

Edit, just remember that we can add some of the PvP gear set to the list of gear that look awful on males, such as the BLM and SCH gear set...

ITT: There's no pleasing anybody.


Personally I love the robes in this game... most of them. I despise the boring simplistic Bliauds, as I had to wear them or a basic cloth robe the entire time I was leveling (and I actually preferred those bed sheets to the bliauds). So to not have to wear them again would be great.

Though I'm not saying casters should only wear robes, there should be some coats or even perhaps light armor sets that aren't also robes as well. Diversity isn't a bad thing to have when there's millions of people who all have their own tastes.

But don't hate on robes, they're awesome. This game just needs more variety with it's robes instead of reusing the same style with a different texture.

I completely agree. I enjoyed wearing some of the leveling gear. I think my fav during beta was the blue robe that was a reward from a CNJ quest. I liked the hooded robes that came from thanalan, all the caster AF sets, the Darklight set, and the sol/poetic gear. Except for the (fake) tail. Seemed a bit forced to me. Some sets are not to my taste, but I see no reason to hate on them.

More variety is always a good thing. Robes or otherwise.

(also, more thigh-high boots please)

It's ok if you want to look like Gandalf, but please give me an option to look like these...



I'm not asking SE to remove or replace all the robes, just want some variation.

They certainly nice. Like I meant , not against it at all just saying I'm happy with what they bringing so far. No complaints from me

[Ashkendor]

*sigh* It has nothing to do with polygons.

Silly goose. You know we can't ever have a fashion thread without someone harping on the butt thing. :3

While I agree that Gandalf would probably mostly wear robes, what exactly is un-magelike about normal shirts and pants?

Search me. I'm actually really fond of my black mage's casual outfit.

[Caraway]

+1'd if only for more options.

While I do like the current robe options you can never go wrong with more choices.

Holy Breastplate from FFXI, I loved this on my WHM.
