Disciple of Magic plate armor

When are they going to add decent options to use plate gear for casters/healers? There are plenty of different options for tanks/dps from plate armor to dresses, so why are casters limited to just dresses and robes? Players have the option to use bikinis and chocobo suits on their tank so don't tell me a healer would look "out of place" in something like the i250 tank crafted set. I would even spend actual money if they just reskinned tank sets like allagan or gordian for healers/casters and put them in the mogstation.

Yes

No

I always thought a light plate armor like the Divine Breastplate from XI would be a nice addition for healer classes in XIV.

If I recall correctly, Yoshi did say he was planning to have older gear sets like Darklight have their class restriction removed.

Why only older sets? Anything not job specific should be glam fodder for all jobs.

Baby steps.

There is almost no chance someone will actually try to equip darklight gear on their job for actual use making it nothing but glamour at this time. Where as if they remove class restrictions on sets that could actually be relevant to a player at any given time would cause issues we had in the past with accessories where people were equipping things just to meet ilvl requirements when it offers almost no performance benefit to the job they are using.

The aversion to paying money for things you want always confuses me.

It's idea of paying extra for what should be a basic game feature.
