    Are diadem glamours useless?

    So I found a 180 head piece with the pvp gear's appearance. I tried to glamour it on top of my 200 piece but received an error message about glamours can't stack. So is diadem gear useless for glamour purposes, or am I missing something? Even if I get a piece I like I can't copy it over? I was hoping to find some awesome looks from this gear.

    Clearly, the best Final Fantasy character is Locke Cole.
    Glamour is TRUE ENDGAME

Other than RNG 210 gear this mode is seeming more and more useless.
    Yes, other than the best gear in the game this mode is completely useless.

    Seriously? Lol.

    Not to mention the gathering that nets a pretty penny atm.

    A few willfully ignorant people here it seems like. A modicum of context would reveal he's specifically talking about the glamor aspect being useless.

    Thank you. Yes I was just complaining about the glamours only. Trust me, I spammed the islands looking to improve my healer critical rate and/or det all day.

    Leading up to this patch they stated that the pink gear would have a randomized appearance, a unique feature no other gear shared. I thought this was a clever way to get dye-able versions of gear. Or perhaps let players who missed the older raids get the appearance. After a few runs I surveyed my bounty. Then I realized that my assumed function was somewhat wrong. My first post was generated from confusion on why SE randomized the appearance in the first place. It had to take time and resources to get this unique feature working correctly. So yeah, in practice it seems like a useless feature. Even for 210 gear, which you would actually want to wear, it would be impossible to get a matching set. So you end up glamouring over the gear anyways.

    Then he needs to learn how to state what he means?

    He said the mode was useless other than RNG 210 gear. This statement does not reflect "glamour aspect only". At all.

    Sorry for any confusion generated on my end. This topic is just about my confusion about the way this unique feature of diadem gear was handled and a misconception I had. I was hoping the topic title would frame my initial question. Maybe I worded it better in my second post. Thanks.
