The Wristdresses are unfortunately a re-used model, available as the Loyal Housemaid’s Wristdresses from the Loyal Housemaid’s Uniform set on the Mog Station (or previously as part of the original Housemaid’s Uniform from an Amazon promotion a few years ago). The boots are similar, being a little heavier than normal for smaller boots like them in FFXIV, though they are close enough in style to something like the Falconer’s Boots (which are dyeable, unlike the Majestic ones) that you can probably find suitable substitutes. Outside of the clipping issues, the body piece is somewhat unique, being more suited for travel than other dresses of its type. Au ra and miqo’te characters will have tail clipping issues because of the cape on the body piece, as well (with just the end clipping through in my case). Both of these are generally avoidable with changes in style or character pose, as usual. As is often the case for dresses like this one, longer hairstyles can clip through the back between the shoulders, and character hands can clip through the actual gown, too. The items have no associated set bonuses or other stats, like other NPC sets, and all of the items are level 1, which is to be expected for Mog Station sets by now.Īs the pictures of the set will attest, the set does have some unfortunate clipping issues, however. Each of these items is non-dyeable, as is generally standard for NPC outfits from the Mog Station, and each one is also gender-locked for females only. Though this is something of a curious and unexpected choice (with it being decently far into Shadowbringers now and with at least one major NPC outfit-Lyse’s current attire-from last expansion having yet to see the light of day for players), more options are always welcome!Īlma’s Attire is purchasable only as a set, for $12 USD, and includes three pieces: a Majestic Dress, Majestic Wristdresses, and a pair of Majestic Boots.

But with the central piece being something of a wash here, the $18 price tag does feel rather steep, so this is definitely one of those sets where personal mileage is going to vary based on how useful you’ll find its accompanying pieces.In a surprise maintenance the night of Thanksgiving in the United States, the Mog Station received an update both to activate a sale on level boost potions and add a new glamour set: Alma’s Attire, which is what the FFXIV version of the Ivalice character wore in Stormblood‘s Return to Ivalice Alliance Raid series. The real meat of this set comes in the three side pieces, providing a solid all classes circlet with far less clipping than usual, a pair of short-cropped pants with a nice fit (quite rare in the game), and a pair of close-fit boots, something that not all classes have had access to before. Of course, the body piece is so heavily thematic that it never would see widespread glamour use to begin with, so perhaps that’s not a huge mark against the set. While clipping issues are minimal with the set, dyeing might as well not be included for the central body piece, greatly diminishing its glamour use. Like many Mog Station sets, this one ends up being a mixed bag. Lighter colors work well enough, but dyeing options do feel rather limited due to the contrasting colors and strange color channels. Worth noting also is that much of the original purple remains even with dye, so many colors will have some strong clashing. While the single channel piecess dye quite nicely and in the manner you would expect, the pattern of the robe is quite unfortunate, with the primary color applying not to the robe itself but to the accompanying wings (which lose their gossamer appearance), leaving the robe to take on a washed out hue of the chosen color.
Largely, the set dyes along a single color channel, with the exception of the robe, which employs a two-channel pattern instead. Included in the gallery above are examples of each piece dyed Midnight Blue, demonstrating the set’s dyeing pattern. Even this piece sits loosely enough around the head that it is compatible with a wide range of styles with minimal or “realistic” clipping (obscured by hair in ways that make visual sense).Īs is always welcome and mentioned above, the Mheg Deaca set is also entirely dyeable. The main clipping issues come from, as one might expect, the Mheg Deaca Circlet, which interacts poorly with a number of hairstyles. The robe hangs in such a way that hand clipping is minimized (though still possible in certain poses), and tail clipping potential is also minimal (male miqo’te are likely to have the worst of it given their model’s particular tail shape). As far as modeling goes, this one is surprisingly well put together for a set that includes a robe, a type of item that often presents a number of potential clipping issues for various races and genders.
