Roles for Samurai, Red Mage, Dancer

I had a good laugh at this. Because most classes did not have unique looks to them in FFXI outside of AF/Relic armor

It's also funny you try to use that armor as an example after saying ffxiv doesn't have job identity in armors. Because when one thinks of Final fantasy Blackmages the image that comes to mind is totally a tribal tattoo covered witch doctor...

Remember that he did say "unique". The Igqira set was very unique. Doesn't have to necessarily relate to the jobs cliche look in FF to be that way. I mean, we did have this as a thing before...



I still think that, at least for BRD/MCH, that was a pretty damn lackluster go.

And I posted an equally unique set from FFXIV making his argument pointless and nothing more than a subjective opinion. To claim ffxiv doesn't have unique identifying gear for its jobs while ffxi does is entirely incorrect.

Well sure, but we have generic sets too. I do recognize that it was more prevalent there as endgame gear though... maybe a downside of horizontal gearing style there, since so many people clamor to the one good one for so long lol. I dunno, I always just joke on the end that we keep blinking anyway, so it somewhat justified the mismatched looks, I guess lol. Limitation of software back then maybe. They did get a lot better though as time went on, at least, since players now actually commonly have their upgraded AF/JSE equips on as a norm. I think it was Abyssea that really started making players wear unique gear job-specific stuff as a norm. Empyrean armor was pretty badass and would probably go over pretty well here, where it'd apply, just as the Koenig look did.
