    Bikini tanking has logical reasons, like distracting enemies and having full body movement*. Think of Conan the barbarian wearing just a pelt. Crafting in thongs over in limsa keeps you ready for the beach, while still being covered enough.

    If you think about it, both the kitchen fires and the smithing when you are forging materials can be very hot, so it is best to have as few clothes as possible. And if a thong is one of the options that reaffirms that body sculpted by the incessant adventure, better than better.

    Full range of movement would only be an excuse if we had a dodge tank. We don't. Distracting enemies? Most of the things we fight are monsters that don't really care how toned your abs are or how big your boobs are.

    Now, I don't mind when people tank in them, and I don't mind when SE throws us a fanservicy tank set like in the Shisui or Sky Rat sets. It's fine. But we don't need to pretend that it actually makes sense. It doesn't make sense, but that's okay.

    It makes complete sense. I'll have you know my sun hat bikini glam on a tank gives me the same amount of protection as my gunbreaker in an armor glam. We are living in a simulation, and the perceived "armor" offers the exact same amount of protection as a bikini.

    Sturm Churro has a rather sacastic and unique sense of humor so don't take most of the things she says seriously since they are likely mostly jokes. Once u learn to recognize htem they can be quite funny and she makes (sometimes) the thread more fun to be at

    In a frog suit in their flying car on their way to unlock The Copied Factory for some Nier android fun.

    To be honest, that's one of the least immersion breaking examples. It just looks like a costume, something a jester or performer might wear. Sure, it's silly, but not outside the realms of plausibility.

    A lot would depend on the Sin Eater glam I suppose. Would you look like a Sin Eater, or would you look like a person in a Sin Eater costume?

    Another angle, why not have prisms that function like the actual 'magic glamour' some enemies employ on Leves for example? You could be whatever type of enemy for 30 mins as an example, with your attacks and what not being replaced by random animations that enemy does. Just an idea.
