I've been disappointed in this game for the first time ever recently, with the 7.4 glamour update and I hope I'm not the only one..
Before 7.4 I've been able to make each of my job outfits unique by glamouring on a piece of Job specific gear. For example, I could glamour a Dragoon only helm on to a DRG/RPR helm and the Dragoon helm would only show when I was on my Dragoon job. I was able to do this with all of the armor sets, making all jobs look slightly different and match their job aesthetic.
Now, that's all gone and I'm bummed out every time I upgrade my gear and realize that I can't do this one thing anymore.
I don't think that the glamour update should be reverted or anything because most people seem to be very happy with it...but what am I to do for my character..?
I've tried making Glamour plates in the armoire but some rare pieces of gear don't go in to it yet. Additionally, glamour plates can only be changed in a sanctuary. I play everything and change jobs all of the time. I want my glamours to update with them.
Even more than that, glamour plates and the portrait system don't seem to match. I have job portraits for each job and anytime a glamour is changed, it breaks those portraits. Mixed and broken systems.
Would it be possible to make the 7.4 glamour changes an optional toggle?
Could the 7.4 glamour changes only be applicable with glamour plates? Leaving the old system alone?
Sadly, I guess I'll just have to deal with this change since I don't think they'll actually reverse any of these changes..
Is there anyone else that's had their outfits ruined..?
