The Fashion Report

[Degaulace]

I'm glad we finally got a week where everyone could go to 100 without counting on an excessive luck or spending $$$ on the Mog Station (or dozens of billions of gils for the dyes)...
This should always be like that, rewarding efforts put in the game. Instead of prioritizing cash players, or those who had the luck to be able to take part in the right events...

Before heading out, a short translation of the german hints for this week:

Theme: Citizen of Skalla (Bürger Skallas)

Chest: "Skallaisch" - no real translation needed, just the adjective of the word Skalla
Legs: hip-short (hüftkurz)
Shoes: rolled up (umgekrempelt)
Earrings: To cute for this world (Zu süß für diese Welt - its the same hint thats always been used for the "Cute as a button"-hint)
Necklace: Ultimativ

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The only question about that chestpieces is obviously: Will any Skalla-chestpiece do?

I expect the legs to be the Uraeus-miniskirt, since thats only covering your hip for both genders - there are obviously a lot of hotpants for the ladies, but not so sure about the male versions of that gear. Maybe some of the underpants we got to go with the Yukatas could work aswell?

Shoes... several jobs have access to shoes with some sort of rolled up part - so maybe the 100-score is locked behind having the right ones and any Skalla-pieces will do?

Earrings - maybe the Peach blossom ones...? Personally I'll try my blue bird too, but since thats very limited, I dont expect it to be that.

Neck has to be Ultima or Proto-Ultima.

They seem to like to throw curveballs with the hints sometimes, so I am not entirely convinced it’s a Skalla chest piece yet. It could easily be something related to the Lochs, or Ala Mhigo.

The boots could be PVP related, referring to The Fold, instead of appearance.

we had the Finally Fantastical/Ultimatic/ect hint already a few weeks ago, which ended up being a ring from Ultima's bane

mmh, you might be right about the chest-piece - given the theme ("Citizen of Skalla" - at least thats how I'd translate the german hint) it could obviously be something someone who lived in that city was wearing. The mobs that are actually people turned into monsters by the mad king tunr back into people once they're killed... maybe we need to pay attention to what they're wearing.

For the boots - nothing in the german hint points towards PvP. "Umgekrempelt" literally means "rolled up" (or I guess you could say "folded" at the top part of the shoes...) - the word doesnt sound like any of the PvP-modes (neither english nor german), so I'd consider that unlikely. Unless there are some PvP-boots that are rolled up...

I was going off the English clue,
In the “Fold” as a reference to the PVP zone The Fold.

That is interesting about the monsters in Skalla, I haven’t noticed that before. Will have to pay more attention next time I get it for a roulette.

Cross linking BiS for this week

[Ariel_Valmont]

88 with piper dyes and 1 Star earnings
(Tremor earrings) and chest (guardian corps coat) will experiment with a couple items later and post results for trying to find some alternatives for people.

Was a bit sad, had access to the platinum paramours necklace, but none of the earrings. I really need to be more thorough on events.
