Can you stop reusing models please?

not only are we getting more reskins, but a lot of roles share the same model. instead of getting 7 outfits per tomeset we get like 3 and a spare shoulderpad.

That is literally how most gearsets have worked since ARR. Occasional sets get more designs, but three or four is normal.

ARR's tome sets were Darklight (essentially the fully upgraded versions of the same repeated cowl, harness and tin-can tank reiterated since level 15), a recycling of the job gear designs, then Gerolt's Masterworks (5 designs, 1 duplicate) and Ironworks (5 designs, 2 duplicate).

Fast forward to Shadowbringers and we have Ronkan (4 designs, 3 variants or duplicates) Deepshadow (4+3), Crystarium (4+3) and Cryptlurker (3+4).

On those numbers it seems that the number of designs has actually gone up, but spread across more sets instead of having two low-effort sets and two fancier ones.

Or at this point just give us the actual ascian gear as drops. Not the bootlegged lookin shadowless gear.

I thought the mage outfits were specifically the Ascian and Emissary robes? Though I never got around to actually comparing.

Would you rather all seven roles got the same black robes?
