For the 129392831203123801 time. STOP IT with the genderlocked gear.

Now seriously, most if not all the new lv1 glamour gear is basically genderlocked. STOP IT ALREADY.

Could be worse. Could have 3 female-only race-specific classes like TERA.

I read that the reason they did this was because those were the three most popular races and genders so they started on those first. I'm not sure how accurate that is but if you're a free to play game I suppose you're going to cater to the largest majority of your player base.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with gender locked gear. The issue is the lack of balance between the number of sets for male and female characters. Removing those restrictions does nothing to appease the vast majority of players who prefer to dress their female characters in a feminine manner and male characters in a masculine manner.

Well actually one thing TERA got right is that all gear has a male and female version depending on the character that equips it so you only need one piece of gear. It even changes the look based on the race though I'm not sure people who play this could handle that much dynamic it'll just be "But I want this one!" no matter what they do. I kinda think in some cases it's needed though for cloth the ST gear looked ridiculous on males so they really should have had a male version but I'm sure somebody out there would have complained they can't look like a Las Vegas drag queen.

To be fair, 1.0 had a male only race (Roes) female only (Miq'ote) and a male only subrace (Highlanders). Fan demand caused the addtion of the "Missing" genders during the development of ARR

[Alexander_Dragonfang]

It should be better, no real reason for something like Dark Dhalmelskin Gloves to be genderlocked, what the hell.

Pay SE millions of dollars and they'll consider it......

Wait people playing female characters are doing this?! No wonder we can't make any headway. Let's start a crowd funding campaign.

Yup, every month I pay my sub and then I pay the female only fee towards getting special treatment of glamours.
