Glamour & Other Miscellany in the World of Final Fantasy XIV
It’s been a long time, hasn’t it? For four or five years, I updated Fashion Ninjutsu multiple times per week, with some gaps here and there, but early on in 2020, things got pretty derailed. The easy answer would be to say that the pandemic threw a wrench in things—and on some level, that’s probably […]

I’m still working my way through the main content additions from 4.3, and while there’s a lot I could talk about, especially regarding the Main Scenario, that will have to wait for now. In the meantime, for the MSQ and the Riordana Lighthouse chapter of Return to Ivalice, I decided to go on Ninja, even […]

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 […]

It occurs to me as I sit down to write this post that, in the four and a half years (give or take a month) since the introduction of the glamour system to FFXIV, I have never used Summoner-specific gear in a glamour until this one. Naturally, that comes down mainly to the fact that I […]

At this point, it’s pretty safe to say that glamour potential alone is going to keep me interested in Eureka for some time to come, as I keep getting ideas for ways to use the dyeable Artifact Armor sets. While I had planned to finish off the Anemos Storyteller’s set for Bard, the realization that […]

I’ve spent almost all of my time in FFXIV since the release of the Nezha Lady’s Attire experimenting with it. It’s a great glamour set (and I talked about some of the reasons why in my review), and it looks fantastic on Alahra. I’ve been focusing on other things for most of the last week, but given […]

With several of my recent glamours for Alahra all featuring plenty of Pure White, I’ve definitely hit that point where I’m going to have to get something white put together for everything. It’s often more difficult to do so for jobs I don’t play as often, since I have less familiarity with the sorts of things […]

I don’t even know where to begin with this one! Usually, as I’m putting together a glamour, there’s stuff running through my head, and I can figure out how to open the blog portion of each Spotlight that way. For this one, though, it was all pretty simple! I had enough Crystals for another piece […]

I’m at a wonderful point with Eureka now, having finished full sets of Anemos gear for Alahra’s three primary jobs for Stormblood (barring any sudden changes in priorities, anyway) but with enough interest to keep gathering upgrade crystals, meaning I can target things specifically for glamour now. After I finished up my Red Mage set, I debated […]

My Red Mage is just about all set with Anemos gear now, with only two pieces remaining. But, since I jumped the gun on a Red Mage-specific glamour, the couple of pieces remaining ended up really disrupting the glamour for my Black Mage and Summoner. I don’t really play either of them, since if I […]
