I'm hoping the Coffer Manifest feature will also apply to PLD sword/shield combo items... Ever since everything was combined, I've completely abandoned trying to see if there's any glams I want to craft, because you can't try anything on from the crafting menu.
In the case of FFXIV, I feel this will be okay, because there's already a ton of content available to people just starting out. And I haven't seen this confirmed, but it sounds like people can start at least visiting other players' Island Sanctuaries as soon as they finish ARR, giving them something else to look forward to down the line.
