About Tank Design Winner

[DragoonSantos]

I absolutely loved the winning set and all the runners up. Unfortunately for some we were talking about TANK gear of course the plate metal look would look like so much of what we have, tanks aren't supposed to run around in bikinis getting beat by 10 x enemies

I just want to say that they should put every single one of these in the game and just make the grand prize winner a custom chocobo. The winners outfit looks like it only would fit a SMN! JUST LOOK AT THAT UNICORN!!! I think they should of choose all of them or at least one armor for each class.

You can have metal armor that doesn't look like a BCoB Fending reskin. Doesn't have to be Allagan to be practical. If anything, the inverse seems more often true as certain motifs get more extreme among Allagan sets...

It was the best design. It fitted Lore wise. Looked something that the original FFXIV design team could pull out. It looks tanky (Proper Heavy Plate Armor) and it's something that can actually be implemented without problems. It was the best design and I'm happy it won. Although I liked some others as well. Would love to see the OnionHolic in game too. It's something that fits in game very well too.

Well...not my taste.

But luckily they released the legacy warrior armor recently, so I don't even have to play tank if I want the armor-y feel :3

A bit tinfoil-y of me, but I feel like they chose it because it'll be the easiest one to implement in the game. They already have most of the art asset created...the HA Coat of Fending. >__>

I liked the one that was supposed to be the Zodiac weapon version of armor the best. OnionHolic's super nummy fur-and-leather design was nice, too.

I dislike the Winner mainly because it's so simple and plain that it just looks like any other unadorned leveling set for around the late level 30's for tanking. It's unoriginal, about as plain as plain can be, and has no features that make it stand out. From a design standard, i'm disappointed in it and it feels like SE wanted to take the easy way out with something that has about as much color as Uncle Ben's Bleached Rice. I was hoping for something with at least some color to it other than WHITE.

Imo, the winner design is a bit boring since it looks like gear we already have. It's not bad, but there was more creative options in runners-up.

I love the winner . A lot of the entries looked more like a mage outfit and not something for a tank so I am kinda thankful that this one won.
Hopefully they will implement that Gobbue one as a glamour outfit for everyone.

The gear looks like an Allagan/Ironworks set. Like the stuff we already have within the game.

Little disappointed as such. (YOU NEVER SEE ANYONE WALK AROUND WEARING THOSE AS GLAMOURS!!)

Exactly. They chose a design that's essentially already in the game. Talk about lazy.
