Thread: Patch 6.0 Notes (Preliminary)

A new system has been added allowing players to dye artifact gear after progressing to a certain point in role quests and the main scenario.

To me, that sounds like it could apply to Shadowbringers AF sets and up. But one thing to keep in mind is Memoria Misera Ex. They might want to keep those rewards in there to keep people running the content. Same with Eureka Anemos. They did say, however, that the base AF weapons from Shadowbringers (Weathered Lionheart, Weathered Fail-Not, etc) will be dyeable in Endwalker, so we might get those at least without having to run MM.

That is totally fair. I had assumed it to be retroactive by default since I was thinking more about ARR and HW.

"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.

I mean, considering how much they’ve been going on with the unisex things and trying to be more about “gender equality” you’d think that would include having some male oriented glams for healers no? Or does that not count?

I have a snarky remark for this comment, but it will get me banned from the forums.................
Instead, I will just say "I love you all."
