    Then, as for everything else, since SB we started getting less, with Omega being a nice excuse to teleport us into an arena with a boss, and Eden works the same way
    Eden is straight to the boss, but Omega does have a "moving through an environment" aspect to it - they just shifted it to the solo instances before you reach the base camp where you launch into the boss fights, so you only do it once and don't re-experience it each time you do the fight.

    But they already do that quite regularly? Not usually mages in armour - though they have shared lighter sets before, like the Lv68 crafted gear gives healers and tanks the same leather coat - but we get mages sharing with DPS fairly regularly even if caster/healer is the default pair.

    They do it, sure, but it's usually within the context of same piece but some time later. I'm saying more like if the pieces are shared within the same set it would be a nice change if they did it at the time of release. For example, if they only make 4 different styles of gear for New Dungeon X, then have the Caster and Scouting gear for New Dungeon X look the same instead of it always being the Caster and Healer gear for New Dungeon X looking the same.

    And yeah, I know they've said before that they want to avoid cross classing gear so that tanks and casters and DPS all have different silhouettes but this went out the window a long time ago. They already use different sets for other classes later on (usually as crafted gear), and you can already glamour every single class from heaviest geared tank to sneakiest ninja in bikinis, so that argument doesn't hold any water.
