Colored gear with specific classes.

[Kiote]

I honestly thought there was some semblance of a chance that I could get over this, but I can't. This is making me more and more angry every time I make a new piece of gear and change it to the color I want I can't use it or the stats are wrong.

Why would you make color effect who can equip something?
Why would you make it change the stats?

This doesn't make any sense. Please, please fix this.

I never in my wildest dreams would have thought such a stupidly simple feature could be so game breaking for me.

inb4 "use materia", Materia isn't a bandage to fix a piece of equipment from being gimp. It's a system to enhance a piece of equipment even further. The fact that dyes adjust the stats across the board is simply outrageous and laughable.

Especially since, trust me on this, the stats don't quite compliment one another as you look at the pieces that match it. Like I said earlier, if you were gearing as a low level conjurer for healing, you'd be wearing a clown costume. And I wouldn't waste good Materia on anything but level 50 armour anyway.

Honestly I'm baffled even still. <__> Not to mention the sudden change in what you can and can't wear as a crafter and DoW. If anything this is casually shunting uniqueness across the board and resembling what XI was every other patch. Pretty soon I'm going to be able to tell what Archer is going for strength over Accuracy, by the colour of his gear.

Not by the gear type, not by the weapon, not even by his rings, but mainly by his gear COLOUR. BS.
