Thread: Petition for Vanity Slots to be released in 2.1 Patch!

I usually like to have myself in the highest tier gear, but sometimes a mismatch is extreme enough that one or two things I feel needs to be adjusted.

Not only that, if you are on this argument that it is hard to tell in dungeons if someone is well geared or not, isn't the ilvl requirement in dungeons being implemented in 2.1 enough of a system to show that the person entering at least meets minimal requirement?

Like to leave one final argument. The helmet on Heavy Darklight Armor is so horrendously ugly that I feel that alone is argument enough that a vanity system should exist in this game, where aesthetics itself is a really big deal to a JRPG community. It would be nice to switch on the PLD or WAR AF in place till I get something better looking like Allagan to put there. The armor is so damn ugly, but the stats are too great to skip. May I suggest in the future to keep all jobs on a 5/5 main body slots? Its a hassle when you wear a two-for-one piece and you get an upgrade to one and you deal with a lower level of the other till you get an appropriate piece for that slot also. Its not that you cannot work around it, but all you accomplished in doing this is confuse people and force them to wear helmets that are not optional to hide. You know how much better that Heavy Darklight Armor would be if the helmet was gone? Hell they even have a pic of similar looking armor without the helmet and it is just gorgeous:


*Funny the LNC is wearing MNK gear*

Just sad they even have concept work of it, kind of a punch in the gut to me, haha. Ohh well though, i'll get out of that body piece eventually when an Allagan piece drops. I just hope SE takes into consideration in the future how two-for-one pieces can potentially cause problems for players.


Just to add on more. I know green tier gear shouldn't be a well thought out or unique design (referring to ilvl60 gear in AK), but seriously, why does it look like gear you get from lv.1-15? There is lv.20/30/40 dungeon gear that looks much better than this. In the future SE, please take into consideration that people who are at max level like to look like they are to some extent. You don't have to go out of the way to make unique looking gear for us, but the gear rehash in AK is beyond the extreme. I know other MMO's use this technique to influence you to want to go after the better looking gear, but at least they kept your style in the appropriate range.
