Red Mage use Casting gear!!

[LalaRu]

... it's really another bit of disappointment to me. It would have been nice to have some originality in both stats and glamour.

If some gear needs be intended only to RDM, SE just will lock it to RDM job and problem solved, as it already happens on other jobs for some gear around, so no need to have new stats.

Less sets we need have, more time we get for other things in the game rather than grinding gear. 5 sets are already too much imo.

There are seven armor sets, five accessory sets. Not counting craft/gather classes.

Think LalaRu was refering to this

Ill have to find the post, but Yosh stated that they are working on a new looting system. My guess is that each will have their own loot tree. Each class will have its own unique look to it.

That would be, honestly, horrible. Even with expanded inventory space, having to manage equipment for every single job would be nightmare for anyone that actually enjoys playing multiple jobs. I would love a better loot system that makes sure everyone in a run gets something they can actually use, but having to store so many sets of armor is just insane, and does not even count keeping inventory for glamour. Remember the current glamour system also requires you can equip that glamour piece.

Implying being up on the enemy even requires more health/armor. When I'm looking at our dungeon and raid design though, getting damaged as DPS usually goes over indiscriminate room wide AoEs or mechanics you're not supposed/allowed to screw up in the first place.

yes theres alot of that in the creator just splash splash splash, sooo yeah i agree with you, just trying to connect a "why drg/mnk/nin has more hp than healers/casters in equal level gear

if they give us enough new room this would be awesome. if not then it will be extra tedious.

You dream like you don't know dev team. Even they separate the set, you will no get unique looks (except only artifact). You will get a lot of swap palette of same model or better like ranged shire gear that be swap texture. You can look back at all gear you have now. Scouting always share model with Striking/Aiming. Scouting gear lack of own unique looks and you hope RDM will get unique looks? Same for aiming, many of it share model with caster/healer as ranged jobs already. How you think dev will crete unique look on each set?

But just separating the sets would allow for glamouring unique looks. The problem with artifact gear is that it currently can't be glamoured to anything else that's going to share a set with other jobs. If we could have separate sets per job (even if their default looks were nothing but pallete swaps of each other), we'd be able to glamour either AF or whatever other looks we like for each of them separately.

I honestly could not care less about RDM using casting gear. I care more about how it plays.

As for glamour...this game has enough as it is and Yoshida said its getting a huge overhaul in Stormblood. I remember at NA fanfest when he said this game is way too much about glamour...I agree.
