I am once again asking you to stop making DoM gear black/white...

[AvalonBright]

So, I was already disappointed seeing patch notes revealing the tome gear is, in fact, still not more S9-inspired/appropriate gear. But I'm disappointed even more so in seeing DoW Jobs getting at least green, blue, violet, etc, and then I tab over to my mains and... oh, look. They're black and white. Again.

I know SE doesn't even listen to the non-JP audience at all, but I have to vent. Again. How long have we been tired of the same Jobs getting the "flavor" focus for every single endgame update? Sure, things like the Vanguard gear explore new looks, but why do we have to keep relying on glamour every time there's a Tome/Raid update?

There's literally zero reason Caster armor should be so black and ugly compared to all of the DoW jobs, but the fact Healers, AGAIN, are stuck with the white cloned armor is insane. How many years now have we been constantly complaining about nothing but white robes for healers and it never. Ever. Changes? It's even worse when they so often do white and red to lean fully into the WHM vibe when there's three other healing options.

Even in DT alone already the entire first tier!

Aesthetics Healer set? White and red.
Arcadion Light-heavy set? White and red.
New Heliometry set? White.

SE, STOP ALREADY. I know you've got better armor designers than this, they show up literally anywhere else but freaking endgame content.

Inb4 getting told to just git gud and do Savage or just wait forever for the dyeable versions, probably.

If I could upvote this 1,000 times, I would. I am sick too death of the crappy gear casters and (especially) healers get.

I like the new normal raid set, but because I don't do Savage I'm never wearing it because the white and red is just so damn ugly and doing Savage is the only way to dye it. It's putrid.

Color isn't your only concern. It's the lack of design. DoM suffers from having robes with little diversity most of the time for no apparent reason. (Something the AF gear suffers from as well)

I'm SO SICK OF ROBES too please SE... I am a red mage I don't want to trip all over them I'm begging ������

I feel like there is so much interesting fashion to draw from why why why must it always be waist-to-floor or half-skirt robes......... granted there have been a FEW that aren't recycled sets that are useable-ish but most times I end up staring so much at aiming/scouting gear with such envy..

[ASkellington]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

The dev team should be banned from using Black/White for Caster/Healer gear outside of artifact gear for an entire expansion.

The are other casters other than Black Mage and there are other Healers other than White Mage.

THERE ARE OTHER COLORS IN THE TWELVESDAMNED RAINBOW

*Next set is puke green and pee yellow*

[Ilenya]

*Next set is puke green and pee yellow*

Frankly, I would find that acceptable because it meant they USED OTHER COLORS.

[CamuiKushi]

Caster/healer is the role I always fall back on glamours for. For the other roles I'll usually base the look around the new gear.

[Basteala]

Making a battlemage can be a pain in the ass to be sure. The Serge Gambison is kinda helpful for that, as is the Metian and Crystarium Gear, but it's definitely more limited than the umpteen flavors of robes which is a shame.

Honestly if they're going to reuse crafter assets I wouldn't mind some aiming or scouting gear or something bleeding into caster crafted stuff. Some kind of light armor.

Don't worry, on the Japanese forums many of us also think SE doesn't listen to JP players.
