Glamour Spotlight: Ranged DPS #37

December 4, 2020.Reading time 5 minutes.

Within the last week, I pushed Astrologian to level 80, leaving just one more job to finish before I finally receive my Amaro. Though I never imagined it would be the last of my jobs to go, all I need to do now is get Machinist to 80, and then I won’t have to level […]

Gear Set Gallery: Shadowless Attire of Aiming

Thanks to a startling bout of luck that had both final pieces I needed to complete the Aiming and Healing sets from Heroes’ Gauntlet, I can wrap up this cycle of galleries today! All in all, I had much better luck with Shadowless sets than I did with the Anamnesis ones in 5.2, but I […]

In terms of Artifact Armor, Shadowbringers has been one of my favorite of FFXIV‘s expansions thus far, featuring sets I absolutely love for Monk and Ninja (among others), and some of my favorite Relic weapons in the whole game (and I’m greatly disappointed it seems like we’re abandoning this expansion’s lovely weapons for the Blades […]

Despite the fact that I’ve been picking at Bard for quite some time now (it’s 79!), I’ve not actually touched the Choral Chapeau since sometime back in February. Instead I’d largely been using my “canon” ARR glamour while I did my leveling (and I’ll probably be picking that up again soon once we actually have […]

Like I mentioned a few glamours ago, I’ve hit the point where my weekly Tomestones can mostly be spent for glamour purposes now. I picked up the Scouting Coat first and had a pretty successful glamour attempt with it (and I eagerly await being able to dye the coat in 5.3). After that, though, I […]

I’ve been sitting on my last attempt at an Enchufla Dancer glamour for a little while, largely dissatisfied with it. While the look was serviceable enough, I wasn’t happy with the fact that it was, in the end, mostly a color swap of my current glamour for White Mage (which I’m still absolutely happy with), […]

Most of the time when I sit down to work out a new glamour, I like to settle on a body piece first, which I’d imagine is a fairly common practice. Body pieces are the main selling point of just about any look, so that shouldn’t be surprising, of course. But sometimes, that habit ends […]

My intention after completing my series of Neo-Ishgardian glamours had been (and continues to be) getting all of the Anamnesis gear set galleries up as soon as possible. I’ve been farming with much of the time I have available to put into the blog (hence the couple days worth of silence on the posting front!) […]

My gil income on Balmung has never really come to resemble anything like I was used to as a mid-tier crafter on Diabolos, which has left me counting my metaphorical pennies as I work on collecting the various Neo-Ishgardian pieces I want. While Balmung is by no means expensive in a relative sense, I’m trying […]

When it comes down to it, I’m quite disappointed that the most recent Valentione’s vanity gear sets are gender-locked. One of my most sought after glamour items is a good vest and shirt combo for Alahra, and almost all of the existing options for such are available only to male characters. The new Valentione’s Waistcoats […]
