    Paladin Looking for Earthy/Rocky Looking Gear to Glamour Into

    I'm fairly new to endgame content in FFXIV. After hitting 60, I went back and redid some old stuff, and found both the Tremor Shield and Break Blade. These two weapons really worked well together visually. Problem is, they don't fit my Void Ark or Esoteric gear well at all. So, I am on a hunt to find some cool, earthy or rocky looking armor to match them. Any and all help and suggestions are hugely appreciated!

    Enclosed are a few pictures of my board and plank.







    Thanks to everyone who took the time to look at my post!

    thou not sure there are any specificly "Rocky" looking gear that Tanks can wear at moment but u could use dull/norm pants dyed a brown color & go the topless route... thou I think the Syrucs Tower (CT2) raid's tank pants thou yellow & brown has a barbarian motif (I think only had it once)

    Whats coming to my mind are actually the Tankchest from ST aswell - its the Phlegeton motif, while not totally rocky/earthy it has a lot of brown and yellow on it and might work for you...

    The Coil1-chest is brown and somehow... bulky aswell and might fit (drops in T4, maybe? Not sure anymore, its to long...)

    Depending on your GC: Maybe something from the flames? I cant check right now but they fir the general color-theme. I dont know the serpents stuff at all (never joined them) but they've got a general nature-theme so it might be worth a look...

    You could also get a full-dyeable strat-set and dye it brown (there is a crafted version of it aswell, can be bought in Azys Lla, might be the better way to go).

    Beside that... maybe the tankchest from Sohm Al? It has some fur on it and looks a bit like the stuff the hunters in the forelands are wearing.
    I could also imagine the coat from the new expert dungeons... yet that would be a bit more elegant again...

    The Light Steel chest and legs (crafted) look great with the Titan weapons.

    Sounds like I need to get some Syrcus Tower runs in. I was planning on farming it soon for the trading card anyway. And I'll also be sure to look into the Light Steel set.

    Thanks for the suggestions, everyone!

    Phlegethon's Loincloth from Syrcus Tower will definitely work for you. Not sure about legs/chest.

    The Coat of the Defiant Duelist (from the new Expert dungeons) is a brown/earthtone, though it might look a bit too refined for the Tremor Shield in particular. There are some great suggestions in the thread though.

    Fun fact, I'm actually glamoured into that currently, as well as the greaves, both dyed with General-Purpose Metallic Gold Dye. Matches the yellows in the Tremor Shield very well. Looks a lot better than the Void Ark dress, and is a great temporary while I try my luck in Syrcus.
