so lets talk about reusing gear sets

I wonder if it's how Makai is going to come back.

I am kinda salty about NIN getting the same Tomestone gear as Casters just recolored...
Just wtf?

I have to admit to being a bit bummed by asset reuse this time around. After getting the Law's Order spear I finally had a weapon that went well with the Baron Helmet and Behemoth Queen chest piece and built a cool set with those as the base, only to have the Behemoth Queen set be reused in its entirety. Finally, after 7 years of playing and trying to build a set off two old pieces, I pick the same expansion where one of them is re-released. At least I was cool for a day or so.


Truth be told, it doesn't bother me overmuch. I would like to see them put more effort into creating new outfit assets and ABSOLUTELY make things dyable, but at least on my end I've got enough glamour sets to fit any occasion and if I do need more there are one or two in my list that could be replaced.

What bugs me even more than re-using sets is the sets they choose to re-use loads of people really like the Warg, Woad and Paglathan sets and all 3 aren't dyeable, honestly gimme dyeable versions of those and I would be ok

[Haruka_R]

it just strange as they just don't do gear sets not even for the cash shop.
what you think of it?

Didn't even notice till you mentioned it. Nothing new in 6 months. Shame. :/

I took some comparison pictures of the Republican and Classical Medicus set (specifically the chiton, wrist torque and caligae). In addition to the usual colour alterations, the metal texture on the new version is a lot more detailed.

The chiton is dyed Snow White and the caligae Metallic Brass in both examples.

Oh!

I'm actually okay with reusing gear if that's how we fix some of the uglier renders.

see if this was how they approached all reused sets i think people would be more okay with it. giving older sets an actual facelift or adding dyablity that isnt godawful.
for example the shirts that drop in hullbreaker are really nice. the dyable hw variants that have jagged edges where the dyable texture ends? ugly.
