    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.



    Example of Empy gear:
