Disappointment and shame.

[LalaRu]

Disappointment and shame.

Let's see when the new glamour details will be disclosed. Your conclusions are based on thin air right now.

They already gave us pretty much most of the info anyway.

Disappointment and shame.

Yup, still can't cross class glamour even in FFXI you can do that, and that game is super old heh.

[ChaoticCrimson]

I'm gonna need more Sigmascape details ASAP! Also, hey late January release, nice

FFXI's style lock disables if you try to switch to a Job that can't use the gear you've glamoured though (so, no cross classing WHM AF for glamour as a BLM for instance) so it's no real different to what we have here (although as it's not kept on armour but is a literal glamour you set on yourself it is superior to the FFXIV version in that regard).

That's not true. You can glamour any gear as long as you can equip it normally on the job in question*. Here are some examples.

Combining COR, THF, GEO, and WHM AF all in one outfit:


WHM AF on my level 1 PLD


WHM AF on my THF



*So for exmample, if you want to use a level 75 WHM body piece in your glamour, you just have to make sure you have your WHM at level 75. Once that requirement is met, you can slap that item into any glamour set, for any job, at any level.

[Enkidoh]

Well then I have no idea what I am doing wrong because style lock deactivates every single time I change Jobs, and especially if I switch to a Job that cannot wear the gear currently glamoured (I confirmed this the other day in FFXI when I switched from RDM to WAR, my glamour was RDM AF and style lock deactivated as soon as I changed to WAR, WAR was a much higher level than RDM though.) So unless there is something else that I am missing I'm sorry I do not believe what you are saying is true.

Either way, this is not really the place to discuss this as this is about FFXIV so I'm sorry for derailing this thread. Back to topic!
