This is exactly what I needed. Everyone the real endgame of MMOâs isnât raids, itâs transmog!
True endgame is having an outfit for everything.
*glamour
I only cleared the savage tier to get the beautiful edenchoir chakrams đ„șđ worth it
@@keenansartain2854 Like, What is "rez?" I only know Raise. If you shout for a "rez" in the world map, I will purposefully ignore you.
@@keenansartain2854 transmog đĄ
Me after finishing ARR: "Im gonna get a cool glamour before I move to Heavensward"
Marketboard prices: "NO YOU AINT"
Dont forget to check prices in different worlds though the world visit system. đ€
@@5359Dragon I didn't know this was a thing... I learn something new about this game every day haha
@@5359Dragon Didn't know I could access different markets like that, and right after I just spent 1mil on glamour
Just swept through all the worlds, got lucky and only could've saved like 5%, so not a big loss. I could've saved that much just by buying without the city tax (which I also forgot)
Amar Ankumar literal me when I first begin ff14, now I have all glamours, thatâs the real end game of ff14.
I actually didn't know you could link plates. This will save me a lot of time with jobs that share gear. Thank you!!
I literally just found that out last week and it's sooooo much easier now, so long as you're in a city
Right?! My thoughts exactly
.... Lol.
It doesn't work outside of cities though. Unless they changed it.
Now if the plates only had multiple main/off hand slots for different weapons for jobs that share gear.
So I just watched the vid because I thought it might be amusing. I didn't expect to learn anything I didn't already know. Then you did "link to glamour plate" and I don't know how I didn't already know about this.
I didn't know this either. I've been manually swapping plates between bard and machinist LIKE A FOOL!
Same, loads of stuff I didnât know about!
So glad I watched this. I discouraged myself from doing glamours because I thought you could only change 1 item to look like another, which would be pointless for leveling when you are constantly upgrading. I'm glad I watched this to learn about plates, thanks!
ahhhh
i see the value now
So you mean when we use plates, we donât consume any more prisms when changing gears?
I've been told I need help dressing myself IRL, I never knew I needed help dressing myself in a MMO.
Minor additions:
- You can permanent-dye and apply-to-what-you're-wearing-now items currently in the glamour dresser via right click menu, but not when editing plates.
- There's also a warning for duplicate items that is good to watch for. The glamour dresser can hold multiple of the same unique for some reason.
- Glamour dresser will wipe out random stats on aetherial items, though that's quickly becoming irrelevant.
- If you need to check item stats or armiore-ability of something already in glamour dresser, right click, try on, hover on THAT icon in the dressing room window.
As a new player,
just 2 minuets into the video, and she has already made me understand how it works.
the last 10 minuets are just a bonus.
The way you said 400 slots makes it sound like that's enough, when it really isn't... somehow :'D
when you divide that by weapon, head, body, hands, legs and feet, it is more like 65ish, so, it is definitely not enough. And I'm not counting rings, wrist and neck.
Yes! 400 isnât a lot because many gear are also job/role specific. Unless you only ever put lv1 glamour-only items in there.
Seriously. I put my poetics gear in there when I'm not using it for other classes but I'm at like 300/400. I also hate deleting class gear for some reason. They need to expand what can go in the armoire
It really isnât enough đ© I think I meant 400!!! as in like,, thatâs 400 slots of inventory you COULD be using and itâs a lot to NOT be using if that makes sense lol đ
@@ZeplaHQ Yeah but inventory data moves around with you. Glamour Dresser, Armoir, and Retainer data goes to sleep when not in use, I imagine like a zip file. Then it gets unzipped when you open them. It's a way heavier load for that much inventory data to be constantly active though.
I've been playing for over two years and I didn't know you could link glamour plates to gearsets. This changes everything.
Does it use Prisms everytime you switch to the job that has a linked plate?
@@danthefool21 nope! Since it's using plates from the glamour dresser it just pulls from that. No more glamour prisms needed!
@@ninjaemilee Thank you!
The old glam system was Glamour Savage, you needed different prisms for different types and levels of equipment.
So glad that's gone
Inventory management was a nightmare.
Yeah that was a money sink...đ
@Timothy Clark Yup! If I remember right he used to sell all the fifty-or-so kinds of glamour prisms. It felt SO GOOD turning all those things into the new glamour prisms.
I've been playing this game for more than a year now
I did not know you can get glamour prisms from the Grand Company
So thank you for that
What is that pfp?
@@keenansartain2854 I kinda made a "personal logo" in paint using the KH Heart symbol
Itai Sprachman okay lol I was wondering if it was from unchained (the only one I havenât played) or something. May your heart be your guiding key â€ïž
Omg how have you been doing all that long :O
@@TheragotzProductions buying and crafting the prisms
I feel so bad at glamouring, I can attempt and prog savage edens raids with some success, but my brain turns to mush when I attempt to understand the glamouring steps! They need to make the glamour dresser even MORE user friendly for ppl like me! Thank you for the video! You rock!
Yes, the glamour dresser is so trash...
I uh...yeah I still have a hard time with it. Let me just put whatever item I want I the dresser and then just slap a plate together, level restrictions be damned.
Yeah, I've been looking into this game (and it looks cool), but the glamour system seems like 10x worse to use than the other two mmos I've played (GW2 and warframe)
@@T2Designgaming At first it is, but after you figure it out it isn't the worst. Would be nice if you just automatically had any gear you pick up have its appearance saved to your glamor dresser and then slap it on whenever without needing to keep the gear until you throw it in there. I guess they were worried about data bloat or something?
@@zeterzero4356 if it worked like that you'd have all kinds of stuff you don't need in there, you'd basically just have a data base of stuff and I imagine that'd be hard to keep track of what people have unlocked. They're already struggling with storage but looking to give us more plates and gear sets in the future. This way you can get rid of things you don't need so it's a little less of a mess.
Plus I personally used it as storage for gear I wanted to use for different jobs later. You can always take it back out once you've reached that level and use it. I know you can just give it to retainers but that's not the case for free trial and limited space there too unless you want to buy more retainers.
Thank you a lot for this! It clarifies so much the whole system. Now, to convince SE to double the glamour dresser space and plates.
Just wanted to say thank you for all the videos you've posted recently. With everything going on in the world and the (understandable) content drought in 14, your cheery videos and have put a smile on my and my FCs faces. Cheers from Lich o/
I have been using one gear set as my city and golden saucer clothes. I didn't want to risk glamouring them because the glamour system seems complicated and I feared destroying them or tying them permantently to one set of gear. This video alleviated those fears somewhat.
Thank you so much for making this video!! I was just about to deep dive into research about glamour plates and the dresser but this is so easy to understand!
the only thing i hate about the glamour system is that we only have 15 plates. At least give us one for every DoW/DoM plus a couple extra
I need one for every DoW, DoM, DoH AND DoL to meet my fashion needs đ
@@WingedAsarath exactly DoH and DoL also need style plus they have some good sets.
Finally I learned about linking plates! I was wondering how to share gear but different glamours! Ty!!
This is off topic but is anyone else obsessed with Zepla's voice? Its soothing and exudes so much positive energy.
Gives me Aerith vibes
Gives me Pam from the Office vibes
Zepla - your vids are SO helpful. You first got me into the game about 5mo ago and I've never loved a game as much. I'm now in HW content and didn't really understand glamour plates, dressers etc. Written online descriptions seemed too complicated. Your vid made it look so easy! Many thanks!!
Thank you so much for this. I was so confused on how to work the glamour system but you answered every single question I had with it!
No one in-game could explain the plates to me, this was extremely helpful. Thank you!
I really appreciate how simple you made this process to understand!!
A very helpful guide, much appreciated! Thanks for making it step by step too, sometimes I miss something obvious.
I love your videos. You always get to the point in a clear and concise way. Great content!
Thank you! I could never figure out the glamor plate system. This explained everything wonderfully.
Yours is the ONLY tutorial that has made ANY sense to me. Thank you so much!!!
I watched a few glamour videos and yours was the most approachable and helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for a super run through of glamour! Answered all my questions đ
Thank you so much. I'm a new player and didn't know nothing about the Glamour system. You explained everything I needed to know! Thanks again!
Thank you so much on explaining this. Being new and from wow, I would open it up and I could not figure out how to get an item into to the glamour dresser. This helped a lot.
The content you make is always useful and you voice is so calming. THANK YOU!
hi thanks! guides for specific parts of the game for new players is really nice, I've been looking for videos on specific parts for my friends cause I'm really bad at teaching them and I just ramble about things and get them completely more confused than they started out.
I just sat down with dinner and needed a video :D Thankyou!
Awesome video, I've tried to look up glamour guides before and found them confusing. Instant follow after watching this.
alright, i started playing ffxiv 2 days ago and every time i want info your vids always get me what i need. subbed and very happy
wow thank you so much! I am a new player and have been so confused by the glamour system. Thanks for breaking it down so wonderfully!!!
I'll sacrifice all my organs if they give me more slots in the glamour dresser.
Thanks so much! I picked up some steps from quests and forum posts yet could never find something lay it all out like this. There are so many nuances people pick up over time and oftentimes when new you don't even know the question lol. The Appearance system in WoW is my main motivation these days, so finally having a better grasp of it in FFXIV makes me want to play loads more now >_
thanks, I found it a lot of help. Still finding my way around the game and videos like this are very helpful!
Thank you for this! This clears up so many questions I had!
This video was great.
After recently discovering Glamour sets and the dresser, my main goal has been to level all my main classes and side classes that I like and getting them proper gear to then use glamour.
Somehow, despite having played for nearly 2 years now, I completely missed the Armoire option in the glamour dresser. I never picked up on the icon in the top right corner either. Did not know you could dye the plate or link to gear sets. Thank you very much Zepla for the informative video. I will now be doing a lot of glamour dresser management this week :D
Very helpful! I didn't know about linking glamour sets to jobs, so there's more time I should spend gathering to earn money gone down the glamour drain, lol.
Thank you so much! This noob was having such a hard time trying to figure this out!
Literally every question I have, leads me back to your channel, for a solid explanation. Many thanks! đâ
Omg, u saved my life, i have been playing for months and i did know about the glamour plate! Thank you so much xD
That was helpful, thanks! I figured out most of it by now, but was still a bit uncertain about the glamour plates. It's a lot clearer now.
This is a fantastic and comprehensive guide! Thank you for posting this, and sympathizing with WoW players like me lol.
I'm new to FFXIV and your videos have been most helpful. ty.
I got this game last week after years. Omg how amazing it is. And yesterday youtube reccomended your channel. Another amazing find. Your content is incredible. Thank you for the tips. Im playing and watching at the same time hahaha.
Such good info Zepla, linking glamour plates was such a great tip. I did not know about it!
Thank you so much, Zepla! This was really helpful :)
Thank you so much! I've been searching for the name of the crafting quest for quite some time.
Thank you so much!
I never understood glamour when I'd play off/on and thought you had to use the armoire and gave up when I couldn't deposit anything.
At least now I know how to put stuff in there in case I find things I really love I can finally stop using default looks.
Really appreciate the easy & clear instructions.
â€
Honestly, thank you. I honestly didn't know how to do this without the Dye being lost. This was helpful.
Thank you so much for your content. So many questions answered
That was a good explanation and very helpful, thank you so much! I'm in Heavensward content currently so I haven't messed with any of the glamour set stuff yet.
I love this, I had no idea what linking to sets did because I never tried it!
OMG i could watch you all day :D you have so much knowledge :D
That is very well explained,Zepla! Even as a veteran player returning after 5 months away from the game, i had missed out on the armoire being accessible from glamour dresser. Very handy!
I also appreciate being shown the way plates work, i did not know linking glamour plates to a job would be specifically applied to that job only despite several jobs having similar gear! Sweet!
Just came from WOW because of your videos and I am in love with this game. Such an amazing story, such nice people, raiding and grouping is so much more fun! Thank you!
Thank you for this, been having to manually re-equip all my stuff manually for ages
I did not know about the plate linking! Figured I would have to build different sets
Thank you Zapla! ^.^
Omg I never new you can link plates to characters !! Amazing !! Thank you for video xx
Thank you for making this video, made it much easier to understand glamour
Thank you!!! I needed this!
Such a great vid. I am returning player and had no idea how glamour plates and dresser worked. Also even better now I can clean out my armoury inventory that for some reason keeps getting filled up. Thanks
I just started playing and your videos have been a lifesaver for me.
Thank you for video, im such a newbie on FF14 and i didnt quite grasp this system lol
but now I do.
Appreciate it
Thank you so much for this lol I couldnât figure out why I couldnât do anything until I realized there was another screen to put stuff in đ
I didn't know about the linking gear sets to glamour plates! Thanks!
Your videos are really helpfull thanks a lot for the good work â„
i've never really looked into glamour and realize that I had no idea these were available. Thanks for the video :) really helpful :)
I've been playing for 6 years and I did NOT know you could link glamour plates to gearsets!!! You have changed my life thank you sm!!
It took me way too long to realize the glamour dresser was my best friend and I only needed to go to an inn. Now I have difficulty deciding which of my 400 glamours to get replaced by a new one.
Disappointing you can't get a glamour dresser in your house, but I get the technical limitations on that.
I love your videos!! Super adorable and helpful, thank you ^.^
Thank you, this was an excellent guide!
This was so helpful. Thank you for making this video!
OK, I didn't expect to actually learn anything from this. I already knew about glamour, but figured I'd watch anyway because Zepla. I didn't know you could link glamour plates to gear sets. That's cool and super useful.
Thank you for this guide I was very confused with this system.
Man I appreciate you for this. Iâm here at level 55 and wanted to change how I looked and this really helped.
Great tutorial! I use the glamour dresser all the time, but I learned a BUNCH of stuff that I didn't know you could do, like plate linking! No sarcasm from me this time, this was fantastic!
thank you for this
This has to be the greatest thing ever for an "old" new player like myself with tons of random cosmetic items. Cleared up tons of room because of this!
coming in late to the party here, but man this really helped me out!! I absolutely love this game but there's alot to learn and vids like this are a must! Thank you!đŻâ
Your guides are really helpful!
Thank you! This will be a great help!
Shout Out: I am here because Az from Hell -vs- Baby Face talked you up in his video about C.E. coming back to Who!
Thank you so much, I haven't played in years and this was very helpful.
Very informative and easy to learn... thanks!
Thanks to this video I have now acquired the fabled Dripstinct
I literally just searched this up yesterday but didn't find anything I wanted. Zepla you literal God, how did you know?
Awesome video, thanks for the plethora of info on glamours.
I had no idea you could tie plates to gear sets like that... Does it still work if you make a button out of that gear set on a hotbar?
Yes it does....only catch being have to be in a city state or the like for glam plates to change between jobs.
Yeah I had been using macros to do that this whole time
@@GEMINIVice1 That hang up has kept me from using plates, and will continue keeping me from using them.
Yep! You can see me switching to Bard after linking the associated glamour plate by using a hot bar button on the bottom right of the screen at 10:19 :)
@@ZeplaHQ Was this link to plate thing added recently?
Nice video, very well explained. Thanks :D
Yesssss! Thank you so much this really helped me understand all about glamours;-;
Oh man I'm glad I watched this, cuz I had no idea you could link glamour playes
So THAT's why there's an arms mender next to the inn. Super helpful guide--thank you!
Thank you for this wonderful video!
