    Can we please get rid of glamour grades?

    They all use the exact same recipe. All the prisms grades have the same price. There is literally no difference between the grades other than making glamour more of a chore to use.

    Why have this unnecessary complication? remove the grades and use on general prism per craft.

    It seems like it was designed to just eat up inventory space.

    As an omnicrafter, glamour prisms aren't exactly lucrative. I'd much prefer convenience in using them over whatever potential profits they could provide.

    I would be really happy for this, having 5 grades per type really stinks

    Well the funny thing is. I'd also get rid of type.

    They complain about having no storage for items then they have all these junk items nobody cares about.

    It really is unnecessary to have these different grades of glamour prism. I have to constantly look up the gear to see what glamour prism grade it needs.

    There have been times, albeit rare, where nobody was selling the glamour prism grade I needed. I can only imagine how this might be a problem for lower populated servers

    This is really nice QoL idea to be honest.
    It would really reduce my retainer storage space usage.

    If nothing else, they need to reduce it to 1 single glamor crystal per crafter, even that would reduce clutter across the board by as much as 80%(on the best day)

    I'm happy with this idea. I can't count how many times that I've had three different prisms of one type, only to have to buy a fourth just to glamour some new piece of gear. I'm fine with keeping different types for different gear types, but when there's a couple of prism grades that just almost never get used period per type, something is a bit pointless within the system.....

    I never understood why they did 35 prism different... Friends said me "for more economical variety"
    Is it needed? NO

    7 prism (one by craft) or 5 (1 by grade but smilar to all craft as we see with coloring stuff) would be enough different prism to not store only one to do all... and a decent number of prism...
    And with 1 uncolored prism to craft all other (which could be the "no glamour" prism same way?)

    The restrictions make for solid gil gains overtime without the huge investment in stuff like script grinds, pentamelds, researching perfect hq rotations etc. You just crank them out while you wait for queues an get a million every week or two. If you're into hardcore crafting that's cool, but just because you aren't making prisms doesn't mean others aren't.

    The only, I guess omniprisms, I'd support would be one you couldn't auction. Maybe something you throw in the guild bank for example. Since that's the kind of thing that should go in there, but there's just no space for it.
