Thread: Patch 6.0 Notes (Preliminary)

Both of those things are pretty big deviations from what they've done before in regards to healers and casters.

I mean on that au ra it looks like it’s just meant purely for females. Has the lower chest cleavage area and everything. The sleeves are fine but it’s the chest pieces that’s like wtf?

Some more genderlocks lifted - this is great news! Unfortunately, still doesn't have the amazing Ishgardian Thighboots that only females can wear (for some reason since these aren't even feminine, I don't understand).

Dyable AF gear without jumping through more hoops is a great change, although I wonder how much it will hurt Anemos participation. I was eventually going to go back there to gather up the rest of the SB gear, but now I won't have to and I never have to set foot in there again.

The spearfishing minigame actually makes fishing look fun. I hope they will extend the minigame aspect to the rest of gatherers.

I'm in love with the tall alien cactuars. I hope there is a minion for them!

Overall, just very excited for EW.

"Last night" I think you might have dreamed those... They've never been on the list of future known unlocks to my awareness, but everything else here was leaked a while back.

Well it is Rydia's outfit... and from "FFIV characters who are mages" your other choices are the twins, Tellah (who is very pink and not that interesting) and Rosa. If you're not happy with Rydia then you definitely don't want Rosa.

The centre front could have done with being more of a curved drape, but ultimately it's a character costume and I guess they don't want to stray too far from the design.

The healer gear was going to be feminine regardless since it's Rosa they are basing it off of. Albeit a bit more tame since her outfits were skimpy in FFIV. Less so in After Years. And Rydia is a fan favorite so her attire will mesh well with both Lalas and general females for Child Rydia, Adult Rydia and the Maenad clones which were low key clones of Rydia.

I don't think it will look good on males but you could go for a nice Wizard look with proper dyes.

Tellah at least wouldve bene better and more fitting. A bit more male-fitting than Rydia’s. This just goes onto the long list of feminine healer gear sigh. Nice to see that isn’t changing in Endwalker…

I think they could use a bit more variety, sure, but they clearly have a general design in mind and are sticking with it.

On the bright side at least it's another female ff lead outfit. We get those so rarely.
