More GLAMOUR PLATES, please!

[Underscore]

Give us at least 20 plates per job. No big ui changes needed. Switch job, switch plates.

This would mean that if you want a glamour plate to be shared between jobs you'd have to replicate it multiple times.

All the developers need to do is redesign the glamour plate menu to be future-proof using the gearset menu as a template. Just a simple, vertical numbered list which you can reorder and rename. It really shouldn't be hard.

Agreed 100%

Considering how much information is stored in the gearsets, and how much is removed from items when put in the glamour dresser, a gearset-like system would probably be the best solution. Have the preview on the side and the list with them

Glamour plates are functionally the same thing as gear sets, a text file with a list of gear items and their dyes. Since there's no materia, they actually have less data to store. The gear set limit was drastically increased to 100 in Endwalker, so server storage clearly isn't the problem.

I'm no developer, but I'm pretty sure the reason we still only have 20 plates is simply the UI - because they designed it with rows of numbers at the top rather than a future-proof list which could be expanded like the gear set menu. The UI guys made an oversight when designing the menu, and I guess they just don't feel like redesigning it.

That appears to be the reason at least, CBU3 is free to correct me.

There should be 1 plate for each job. Period. No excuses.

1 for each at the minimum including plates for any future jobs

Please...glamour is an addiction and we need more spots ;-; I keep having to reuse plates

It seems kind of crazy that they use our clients to implement blacklisting, but don't use our client to implement huge glam plate libraries.
All youd have to do is get the server to sign your client glam plate with it's it's own sever side secret encoded against that char, and you can make sure no one is doing something like faking dies and gear ownership. Infinite glam plates, at no further server cost.

Imo, there should be a minimum of one plate per class.
That way all your classes can have unique looks, especially since they share gear and you may not want your warrior to also look like your pali.

Definitely. It would also be really nice if they had a few extra for DoH/DoL as well, since those all can have unique glams.

A large amount of client-side data for keeping track of glams probably wouldn’t be something that can be backed up to the server alongside our other configs, but even if that ends up being the case it still might be nice to have as long as we’re aware they can’t be backed up.
