Do you even glam, brah? Some people might think that glamour is an end game only thing. But remember level 50 was endgame at one point. If you are looking at the distance you’ll miss some great things right under your nose. So if you are just starting out and want to look as good as possible as soon as possible, or if you just disregarded the early game as a glam resource definitely check out this video.

If the opening didn't give it away this took way longer than I wanted to make. Basically I had audio hell (still not very happy with how the audio turned out). Anyway hopefully I'll take what I learned and it won't take me so long to make vids in the future.
Didn't know one could look that good at level 60, been really sleeping on stuff. You said you're a trial player? Does that mean you actually got a pot of general-purpose metallic silver, and then used it on a squadron member's glamour? Absolute mad-lad. That true dedication to the glam game. lol
Alright time for a glam review.
The Paladin glam. I'm not sure the Zangantetsu is the best fit for it, but the more I see it the more I like it. It goes from white to black with the rest of the outfit and have the white shield with the black sword actually gives a good touch. But what I really like is how the helm and the shield both have a single horn in the middle. Even from completely different sets they match together so well.
The healing glam. What I like about this is that the Ash mask (while already a popular glam item) fits into the griffon coat. It has a bird like esthetic. The relic weapons from two different expansions are a nice touch as well. A trial player getting an ARR relic, that must have been a pain.
Black Mage glam. Basically same, though going to have to admit it isn't as good as the healing. The grey feathers just don't blend in as well as it white does. But still you managed to find a winged black mage weapon to go along with it.
The Marauder glam The one is a real shame because yes the Parashu would have been great with this. The chains on the Parashu with the chains on the chest gear would have been a really nice match. I also like for the chain lining of the coat matches the legs. Shame about the weapon because while the Tremor Ax is a awesome ax it doesn't really match.
Bard glam. I'm just so use to seeing this glam considering it is what you use for your videos. But I like the rings, cause they are stars like the logo of your channel. For a casual glam it's pretty good, but there are a lot of items that a lot of people use a lot. But I guess that is because they are good items to use.
Monk glam. I had to double check to see if any of these pieces where of a matching set. Nope but boy do they work together. The purple with the grey lining/wrappings is a solid through out the piece. The Dinosaur boots where a good touch. The fire weapons and the only thing that may seem a little out of place, but I can't think of a better early game "edgy" weapon. Probably my favorite of all the ones shown.
Warrior glam. It's simple, but I like how it's a tank glam that you'd expect a healer to look like. I'd consider dying the gloves Gun Metal Black instead of soot black but it still works. The earrings are a bit off. Everything seems much more basic but you've got some Allegan styled earrings. Of course I am saying this without any suggestion to what they should be. What would be a twelve styled earring? /shrug
Shizuo cosplay. Definitely a solid Shizuo, not sure how you could do it better all things considering. But now I just really want a street sign "ax" for Warriors. Hope someone does that for the next weapon design contest.
Ronald Knox cosplay. Would have probably like to have seen a Reaper version of this considering he is a grim reaper, but I guess that would be an impossibility considering you're a trial player. But you got the shoes down, and considering that's one of his defining features well done. Now you just need to find an Au Ra Sabastian, and a female high lander Grelle. I know he's a man, but the highlander females would be the best. The knives I guess are the best you could find, but man does this emphasize that Ninja's need more real world based knives. Like we need balisongs, switch blades, spring blades. I think the reason we don't have them if because of real world issues interfering with my fantasy game (bleh). Also the pure irony of a hardcore trial player spending money for glams. PURE HERESY!!!
Out of all the "sexy glams" my favorite was the highlander female lancer. Though you should have maybe pointed out that this was a highlander female only glam. Kind of shame other races can't wear that sexy hempen shirt. But still it was good how each piece was from different sets. Loves the binding look. The mask just added to the kink factor 😛
Over all very good showcase. I can tell you put a lot of effort and thought into each piece. I guess that's what a real hardcore trial player spends his time on :P. Once you sub I'd be interesting in seeing what end game glams you could come up with.
just a lil tip when blown up to full screen the lil thing telling you each piece is blurry af i cant really read any of it on a 27" screen
Clean!
Btw u can't get halone's helm of fending on free trial, that's PvP item
It's an interesting idea, but level 60 isn't what I'd call early game.
Ok, you want low level glamour?
Do Novice Hall
I rocked the Brand New set up to level 80
My tips for low level glam;
1. Do not be afraid of the marketboard. Some old glam outfits are very cheap and can be used in multiple themes. Be sure to use search function and set the level to 1-1. Don't forget to check that the outfit you want is wearable for your job, or it wouldn't show up as a glam.
2. Keep everything you think is best or has the potential to be something more. Some early lvl gear are unique in their designs which will grant you more options to choose from in the future. Do note that some might be undyeable. More options is always better for your fashion sense.
3. Know thyself, know thy theme. – This is important. You have to know your style and your character. Some races might be heavier on a cuter, cooler, or sexier side, so corporate that into your style. For me, i love thighs with cute, regal, sharp, or casual outfits, so my character won't be in a bikini armor or walk around in lingeries, still, they are available options for mix-and-match. My character is a Xaela AuRi, so showing off her scales with glams that do not cover her entire legs or arms is also a choice.
4. Attention to detail. This is not a requirement but its good to have. This way you can mix and match an entire glam set from entirely different set pieces. Some pieces can be used to change the visual on body and leg glams such as long sleeves and long boots glams, giving them new and unique looks you cannot find from using their own set.
5. Check other people glams or your favorite characters outfits from other medias, and don't be afraid to steal that idea for your own. If you are not comfortable with copying, just borrow the idea and mix it with your own style and available glams. You can also find good looking glams that are not available in the marketboard this way.
6. Don't be afraid to be colorful and vibrant. Use your favorite colors to express yourself.
Just don't go overboard with colors or people will think that you haven't unlock glam system yet.
4:23 where that from? That one looks really awesome. The helmet **
Nvm, found it. “Beastlord gear” (pvp).
Thanks for the website 👍🏼
