Thread: [Clarification request] Accessories role locked in 4.0, will it affect current gear?

Yes it will affect current gear. But currently accessories arent glamour locked, so maybe that will stay the same.

If they role lock current ARR and HW gear, suddenly many of our current glamours using those old accessories will stop working on most DoW&DoM and all DoH&DoL jobs! Such as all the different colored Allagan and High Allagan accessories.

I really like those allegan accessories...

And if this change is retroactive, then people wouldn't be able to use whichever color they want unless it was the color for that specific jobstat...

This is something I'd also like to know.

The Garo accessories are from this limited time event and I happened to buy the Vitality ones. I'd prefer the Mind ones if they are locked. I don't mind doing the extra grinding, I just need to know if I should.

Although the Garo event is time limited, it'll still be around after Stormblood launches, so you should have a definitive answer with plenty of time to take action on it:

I'd really like to know this too.

If I'm not wrong, Garo acessories are pvp gear right?

If they are, then don't worry, they said now, pvp gear will only be for glamour.
So I don't think this should hurt pvp accessories if it doesn't have stat anymore
