Unable to Craft High Quality Paladin Sword/Shield

[Hajime_Shouzaki]

With the modification of how the Paladin sword and shield are crafted now, there are a couple of issues that are noteworthy. First, there is no longer a way to preview them. Second, it appears that they are no longer able to be crafted as high quality. While every other weapon is. This is strictly when crafting a set such as Byakko's Enspirited Arms. Individual swords/shields are able to be crafted as high quality just not sword and shield sets. Please see the included picture as an example.

Pretty sure that’s a wall decoration

It's mainly just a piece of glamour at the end of the day, so it's not necessary to HQ it. While yes it might have an IL attached to it, and a min required level to glamour, people don't use the crafted weapons as actual leveling gear, they glam it on top of better gear.

Either the paladin's arms should be HQ craftable, or they should make the corresponding weapons for the other jobs HQ uncraftable.

I don't really understand what this change was supposed to accomplish, but I agree that there are some issues with it. It doesn't matter if they're just seen as glamour weapons for experienced players. There are always new players, and some of them may want to actually use the gear while they're at the appropriate level. Even if it's just used as glamour, some people like to use HQ items, even though it doesn't change how it appears, except in the name of the item.

But it is annoying not to be able to preview the gear before crafting it. You can still look it up on the market board, but it's confusing and inconvenient.
