The Fashion Report

[AvenoMatt]

Quick question. Do I need to be wearing the actual items or do glamours count?

You are judged based on your glamour, or if unglamoured then based on the actual items. Basically, on your appearance, not on the actual gear.

I can confirm that with the following. I got a 99 score..

Makai Bow - Goobue Grey
Flap Cap - Dal. Red
Survival Shirt - Dark Green
Expeditioner's Gloves - Dark Green
New World Pants - Cream Yellow
Dinosaur Leather Shoes - Dalamud Red
Behemoth Earring
Moogle Ribbon Neck

So its looking like. you pretty much gotta be a 60 Fisher with that Tacklekeep's hat to reach 99. Cause i cannot for the life of me get 100 as any other class.

Confirming the bit about the Mammon Lucis.

Prior to today i did not complete the original Halcyon rod -> Supra/Mammon/Lucis bit. I just had the first rod in one of my inventories. My fisher was level 68, and i unlocked spearfishing through main fishing quest. I had Supra + the umbral notes. I purchased the 15x600 GC seal items and 4 more moon stones, got my Lucis Mammon. Went back to calamity salvager and now Lucis Halcyon rod is available.

I can confirm that the augmented tacklekeep hat also works, though that's not really surprising as it is the same model, just higher ilvl.

makes me sad, i couldn't find an alternative to the new world hose, the stupid macrame is expensive, if you have a lvl 60, and 600 poetics, just make yourself a augmented shire weapon and dye it. works all the same. i just got a 94 with everything that people have posted. i looked around for a different set for legs but just couldn't get anything. ribbon of healing only gave me 4 stars lol

Ugh... have everything buy the dyable rod, when does this reset?

On Tuesday we will get the new theme

[Catwho]

This week as a challenge to myself I took the theme, and forced myself to ONLY use 1. Stuff I already owned and 2. Only vendor dyes - for the first try.

Thankfully, I already had Behemoth Earrings and Mog Ex - note that both those items are free, but require you to run content or have run it in the past and kept the reward. (Dear 2015 self: Thank you for keeping that Ribbon of Aiming!)

I used vendor dyes only, but followed this week's dye clues. Red hat, green shirt and gloves, yellow pants, red shoes. I used Rolanberry Red, Nophica Green, and the cream yellow and goobbue gray are already vendor colors.

Under these constraints, I put together a base outfit worth a score of 81, without spending any more than 300-400 gil at the dye vendor.



* White Beret in Rolanberry Red (three stars)
* Expeditioner's Shirt in Nophica Green (gold)
* Claws of the Beast in Nophica Green
* Expeditioner's Pants in Cream Yellow (three stars)
* Marid Leather Boots of Healing in Rolanberry Red

If you're a veteran player with a large closet full of old glams, it seems you'll be able to do this fairly cheaply just for the 60K MGP each week. It's newer players who haven't hoarded or run a lot of it who might struggle.

I then went and visited the Calamity Salvager to retrieve a Halcyon Lucis rod, turned in this week's yellow scrips thing to M'naago so I could get a macrame, bought two dark green dyes off a FC member who had extras (she sold them to me for 100K each), discovered I had a Surival Shirt after all, mined some red pigment and made my own Dalamud Red dye - and got my score of 100.

Yeah this week seems especially inaccessible for new players. They don't all have 800k gil to spend on just the pants. And then there's still fancy dyes, EX gear, etc. etc.
