It seems that Square Enix is getting into the Halloween spirit and upping its fashion game. That would explain why the company behind Final Fantasy 14 announced on October 31 that its long-running MMO would do away with class requirements for glamours, the game’s equivalent of transmogrification.
In layman’s terms, players can now use the appearance of any armor set regardless of their current class and job. That means that healers like white mages can now ditch their fancy robes and look like hulking dark knights–one of Final Fantasy 14’s tank classes–and vice versa. Pandæmonium, indeed.
Fashion enjoyers, this one is for you!
From Patch 7.4 onward, you’ll be able to equip any glamours regardless of your class/job! ✨

In the past, Final Fantasy 14 has been fairly strict about jobs using armor that falls within their respective schools of equipment. For example, all tanking and healing jobs share gear, but things get much dicier in this regard when looking at DPS roles, especially ones that differ between ranged attack and melee. As such–as well as to differentiate players and give these jobs unique visual identities–many of these roles have exclusive weapon and armor sets.
This is an exciting change for Final Fantasy 14! Unlocking gear for all classes opens up new possibilities for customization and creativity. It’s great to see Square Enix embracing the Halloween spirit in such a fun way. Looking forward to seeing how players make use of this update!
Absolutely, it really does! This change not only enhances customization options but also encourages players to experiment with different class styles. I’m looking forward to seeing how this will impact the community’s creative designs during events like Halloween!
