I must say, the glamor system in this game is poorly designed. I mean your gear is all like Woodworking for this, leatherworker for that, weaver for these, goldsmith for those, blacksmith for this, carpenter for that, armorer, alchemist for god knows why......
Then on top of all that, you got grades 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. You gotta go into the glamor screen, attempt to glamor something just to be shown what grade prism you need at least until you can remember which item levels relate to which grade it's something like grade 1 for levels 1-25, grade 2 for 25-35, grade 3 for 35-45 I don't even know tbh lol. I never wanted to bother spending the time to memorize it all cuz it's stupid I just go into the glamor screen and have it tell me what I need.
I can craft my own glamor prisms but crafting them each time you feel like changing up how you look is highly irritating to me, gotta head to mor dhona, grab the crap, hit up your retainers, grab the other crap, verify which ones you need, load up your craft, make each one you need.
Nah I just buy them on the market board. I can't be effed to deal with that.
I mean you can craft a ton of extra prisms and leave 'em in your inventory so you can very quickly switch out your glamors whenever you feel like it. But I mean there's 7 necessary prisms types from each class, 5 different grades which depend on what you feel like at the moment. That ends up being 35 spaces of inventory being used for your retainers and yourself. Plus you gotta store all of your glamor gear that you like in your retainers or Armoury Chest totaling ridiculous amounts of further inventory space.
Frankly, it's a bad system. It's inconvenient, it forces players to use game time for inventory management which I feel is kinda stupid.
This isn't a post advocating for the glamor system like GWII and some other MMOs are using now because those posts are bountiful and make their own awesome points, this is to remind SE:
