[Request] Please unlock older gear for Viper

[kishi-san]

Hi, first forum post here! I haven’t seen this mentioned yet, but I noticed that VPR cannot equip or glamour older (Striking) gear that existed for NIN before Scouting gear became its own category.

Some of these include:

• Saurian Shirt of Striking (which I prepped specifically on a glamour plate for VPR’s release, my disappointment that it couldn’t be used)

• Fuma Set from Labyrith of the Ancients

• Replica Allagan/High Allagan Striking Sets

• Gryphonskin Jerkin Set

While I believe gear that was specifically designed for NIN/individual jobs (eg. Batliege Set) should stay NIN exclusive, I feel these older sets should be available for VPR as well, being another Scouting job. I hope this can be changed. I am aware some of the sets I've listed have alternatives, but they aren't the same.

If it helps, there are some alternatives for some of these:

There's the Raptorskin Shirt as a reskin of the Saurian Shirt, which should be available to all disciples of War.

For the Fuma set and High Allagan sets, there are the PVP "Prestige Shadow Fuma" and "Prestige High Allagan ... of Scouting" sets you can purchase with Trophy Crystals. Just confirmed Viper can wear those versions.

Sadly, no Viper-friendly alternative for the Gryphonskin Jerkin set, which I planned my Viper glam around.
