Show your interest for a Glamour log!

[ShinMetsu]

I swear EVERY.SINGLE.TIME a glamour log thread come up there will be one genius that suggest this. There is literally no bloody reason for the gear to be destroyed when you add it to the glamour log. Just bind the gear to the character (like how's it's done when you glamour a piece of new gear) and call it a day. Hell, ideally you shouldn't even need to do it manually. The system should auto add it into the log the moment you pick up a piece of gear with a new model.

Seriously people, stop making things more complicated than required... This shit (destruction of gear when adding to glamour log) always trigger me so hard when I see one...

I'm sorry if i offended you, that definitely wasn't my intention!
I just threw that together in ms paint for fun.

And the reason i put it like that, with the item being removed, is because i thought that was the reason people want the glamour log?
To free up space and remove old gear that they don't want to use anymore, but still want to glamour.
That wouldn't mean that normal glamour would be gone either, you could still hold on to gear you want to use and still glamour it like normal.
At least that's how i'd imagine it to work.

The other way would be having the Glamour log work like an expanded armory, i guess?
Hope you can forgive me
How would you like it to work?

This is a must have and a HUGE QoL improvement imagine all the space we would all save and how stress it would relieve from the retainers having to bring these items to us when we need them <3 Yes Yoshi please give us this!!

We already have the binding system in place, why not just use that upon adding it to the glamour log? Then the player can decide how they should free up the space (discard/vendor/hand in for gc seals) if they no longer have any use for it. Surely it isn't that tough now is it? (Barring the first time the system is introduced)

It's nothing personal, I'm just against the idea that's all. I'll explain why the item being destroyed is a bad idea. Say you already have an alex weapon and you're working on a relic for glamour. So if you want to glamour stage X of relic onto your alex weapon, it will destroy your relic weapon in the process of adding it to the glamour log. Then what happen when the next stage of relic update is release? Are you going to work on the relic from scratch again? Granted things are better now that replica relic is a thing, but do note that it only gives you up to stage X-1 of the relic. So what's next? You're going to wait til the next relic update patch to be release before you will glamour it? Doesn't that sound ridiculous?

Since we already have a binding system in game, why not just utilized that? Then let the players decide how (discard/vendor/hand-in for seals) to free up the slot themselves. Surely it isn't that difficult now, is it? Well, maybe barring the first time the system is introduce but I think you get the point.

TL;DR Just let untradeable (relic/raid/dungeon/achievement) loot be automatically added to glamour log upon obtain and bind tradeable (lvl 1 crafted) gear to character upon manually adding it to glamour log. Then let the players discard the gear after if they have no future use for it.

Again this thread was made because Yoshi P said at PAX East such a feature was possible and so this is to help demonstrate player interest in the feature.

"R: Players enjoy keeping many glamour sets which they switch between frequently. Are there any plans on making a "glamour log" system where obtained pieces of gear are glamorable without having the physical item, like the WoW transmog log?

Y: *Yoshida thinks for a bit* When asked is it physically possible, it’s possible. It’s not impossible but there’s so many different things that we do want to in terms of UI that I’m afraid the priority isn’t as high on our list. Leading up to 4.0, we are setting up the UI so that each job has their own sort of user interface and there are many different tasks that are on our priority list so it might take a bit more time before we can address it."

The reason I'm ok with the destroying items idea is that I think the developers will prefer it, rather than that it benefits me. Obviously it's better for us if we can still desynth or trade in the items after adding them to our log, but it reduces demand (slightly) if everyone gets dual benefit from each item which in turn reduces the time taken to do things which in turn reduces subscriptions. You should obviously still be able to glamour 'non-logged' items as normal if you want to do it that way, to accommodate things like the anima weapon. Which should probably be non-loggable in the first place until the questline is complete, to avoid people making mistakes they will later regret.

Aren't we introduced to that node which produces replica anima weapons?
If people don't read or are dumb enough to log their actual anima weapon, it's their fault lol.

Thank you! SE, you know what to do.

Sadly, it does seem to be the case that there are are fair few people who don't read (or indeed think). Having the anima locked out while it's current content is a small price to pay to spare the GMs hours of silly support tickets :s
