Glamour & Other Miscellany in the World of Final Fantasy XIV
So far, my Patch 5.35 hasn’t really gone like I expected it would at all! By now, I imagined I’d have done a ton of Bozjan Southern Front, but as of writing I’ve actually only managed to get one lockout in! Instead, I’ve been busying myself capping out new relics outside of the exploration zone […]

Balmung completed the New Nest of the Firmament not too long ago, which opened up the next series of quests in the ongoing storyline (in addition to adding some absolutely beautiful new music for the area). Since I’ve been saving crafter leveling for the final line Beast Tribe Quests for this expansion, I’ve still got […]

Last but certainly not least of my three crafting specialists is Alchemist. ALC has always been Alahra’s crafter “main,” but it’s also one of the ones I use the least, since I find crafting consumables to be too tedious when it comes to making gil. Even so, I’ve largely kept it as a specialist for […]

It feels like ages ago now, but in the pre-5.1 world, I was at one point planning to post my specialist glamours for Alchemist, Goldsmith, and Weaver. I got around to one of them before I found myself without internet for a few days, and once I was back online, I wanted to focus on […]

Now that we have a slightly narrower release window for Patch 5.1 of Shadowbringers—late October—I don’t feel like I have to scramble quite so hurriedly to have all of the 5.0 dungeon gear set galleries up on the site in time. That means I can get back to sprinkling in some glamours I’ve been sitting […]

Way back in Final Fantasy XI, I loved the game’s various yukatas, which were usually part of various summertime events not unlike FFXIV‘s Moonfire Faire. For the most part, the relaunched FFXIV hasn’t continued the tradition, with only the first Moonfire Faire following the game’s 2.0 relaunch as A Realm Reborn offering yukatas of any variety. I’ve only rarely found uses […]

Often when I glamour my Disciples of the Hand, I try to stick to really functional things, which generally serves to be a pretty severe limitation. My last few crafting glamours have been largely variations on the same basic look, with the basic color scheme and even many of the pieces staying the same from […]

I’ve so far had positively awful luck getting Skalla body pieces to play around with for glamour, despite farming it for the largest majority of my Creation capping last week. I’m going to do the same thing this week, hopefully, as I really like the look of several of the Skalla pieces. They dye very well, and […]

Crafting glamours usually flummox me a bit since all of the classes tend to share gear, and it can be hard to go for anything that’s really thematically appropriate for all of them at once. Sometimes we get looks that are fairly broad in their applicability, as with the Ironworks Crafting gear from Heavensward, but for […]

I really should have known that the Alchemist glamour I put together earlier in the week wasn’t going to last. Wednesday evening, after the post went up, I resolved to finish up my Dark Knight Anima weapon, and along the way, I got a really strong urge to mess with my tank glamour. That meant […]
