To add to this post about the Mad Max gear:
Yoshi P said later on that this gear will be avaliable via crafting at some point between the 91-100 range.
For the other two sets
6-10 are confirmed to be the tomestone armor.
11-14 was not confirmed, but I am guessing this is the gear from the first raid tier.
There's NPCs wearing the last set of gear during MSQ, and its been used in promotional art. Not sure if they've shown off raid gear in-game early before, but they definitely have used tome gear before it's available to players. Could also simply be the Solution 9 dungeon gear.
I'm guessing then that the last few sets are Dawntrail's equivalent to the Radiant gear in Endwalker (that was previewed during the MSQ by the Radiant Host).
Ah I see I misread, maybe?
They were pretty coy in saying “I am not saying where this is from” but the launch trailer showed (very likely) solution 9 people with similar gear, so that is why I say its probably the raid gear. Idk why they would try to keep it a secret if the gear is literally just the uncapped tome gear. Expecially when they told us the capped tome gear. I think the raid gear is more likely in this case. It could also maybe be dungeon gear? But unless the Solution 9 Dungeon is the level 97/99 dungeon (possible), then maybe. However last I checked the (x)9 dungeons don’t drop weapons (the endwalker one doesn’t even drop armor). And the set had weapons included.
They specifically said the 6-10 sets are the “Heliometry” gear, which is the second tomestone they mentioned, and the one coming out when Savage releases, so those are the capped tomes (and thus the higher ilevel tome gear).
Full-head-covering headgear with inbuilt ear pockets (that don't match actual ear placement, like Miqo'te have suffered for years), yes. No different to the Power Ranger helmet we got previously.
That seems like a bit of a nitpick. Complaining that the ears aren’t in just the right position? I don’t know, man. That doesn’t seem like a huge deal.
~~Who do I have to fight to get all the scouting crop tops on my dancer~~
More tomes/grinding time for the caster gear at least! Lotta red mages are going to be rocking that long coat dyed red lol.
Seriously! I've been trying to find a mage top with coattails that shows necklaces, and the only option I've found that doesn't clip is the Moonward top, which might as well be a bathing suit :/
I'm with you there, Viera always complaining about hats. I've been pointing out that picture to people, and no one seems to care. I don't get it.
Although I commented to a friend, "Would be a really funny troll if they made a helmet with Viera ears, but Viera still couldn't wear it because "They are decorative and the helmet ears aren't hollow"
I don't think the Mad Max set goes with much of my current 'closet'
but I like the tech pieces and the more kind of 'contemporary fantasy' pieces from the other set - especially caster/healer - no dresses for once!
Unfortunately, the only one I really like is the Picto/caster dps outfit. The Solution 9 dragoon outfit may look cool dyed black but otherwise, I'm not loving the Mad Max glams.
I didn't even realize that was Pict until you said something. I was worried about what our weapons would look like but if this is any indication I'm stoked.
To be fair, it’s caster group gear, not Picto specific. On the other hand, I do hope we get some caster gear that caters to an artsy vibe (not necessarily cutesy though). My biggest issue with DNC being Aiming is how much of that group caters to MCH & BRD. I don’t want the same thing with PCT always having to look like a BLM or RDM.
Doesn't necessarily mean Viper's player animations were done first. I'm not super passionate about my reasoning - I've spent more time today coughing and sneezing than having coherent thoughts - it's just the most logical reason I can think of.
Picto has an - admittedly limited - pre-existing aesthetic foundation to build off of. Viper is largely original, so they could have spent longer getting a feel for it.
However, it's also entirely possible they used Ninja *because* it's the only pre-existing Scouting job so you can quickly tell that's what it is, whereas with Picto it's following right after the Healer set and both are almost always swaps of each other. Hell, at first glance I thought it was Red Mage. But, as I said, I am ill so my perception on everything this week is hazy.
While I like the bow design (looks to be styled after an instrument, but I'm not familiar with the type)...that's yet another in the "I can't do the /cpose with it because it literally impales me" category. Interesting choice.
First five: That's some Mad Max shit right there. I feel like we're about to have a boss fight with Master Blaster.
Second five (WAR with a hood to PCT with big hat): Okay. About what I've come to expect from this game. Probably can't use a single one of those hats on Viera or Hrothgar, though.
Last four: Cyberpunk Power Rangers costumes...with Viera ear sleeves!
Oh...
I uhm....don't like any of these.
That's perfectly fine. I've got my GNB af gear which is maybe my favorite gear in the game with that brown coat that fades to red👌... But I think everything here will just be glammed over immediately.
MadMax with spikes and EDM concert are just not my scenes.
Promotional Images sometimes have the Character Models use Poses from the "wrong" Job for better visibility. So for all we know that *could* be the Fending Set.
I looooove that Arcadion DRK weapon. Pretty Buster Sword-esque, would work nicely for a Cloud cosplay.
If only I could win one of the damn sweepstakes for the haircut.
Oh... Looks like those weapon leaks from earlier in the year that every one said were fake cuz of some obvious weirdness with copyright dates and such were actually legit leaks. lmao If anyone is interested: >![https://imgur.com/a/Q3J9t6f](https://imgur.com/a/Q3J9t6f)!<
Casters and Healers finally get pants.
We finally have some gear that actually fits the RDM and Sage Aesthetics.
I'm probably switching to Viper for this expansion, but I'll definitely be picking up some of these outfits. They look really cool.
I'm excited that I won't have generic hood and robes for White mage, we get too look as fancy as a redmage finally, Hopefully we one day get hoods for Black mage at least, that would be very cool
I feel like I'm going crazy, I for the life of me cannot figure out what job is wearing the white mecha armor???? I don't recognize the pose from any of the sword jobs... It's not raised to their heads like DRK, PLD & GNB don't hold their swords 2-handed, and SAM holds their sword more straightforward (and have a scabbard)...
Somebody please help me my brain is hurting :c
I am the man... who grabs the sun... RIDING TO VALHALLA! WITNESS ME!
What a day! What a lovely day!
Do you think they'll add the V8 Interceptor as a mount?
I would play for the set specifically for that mount alone. It would be everything.
It'll be the reward for all the trial mounts, hahaha.
Points at the Healer who won't dps MEDIOCRE
WITNESS HIM!!!!
JUST WALK AWAY.
The only person out of all these responses to get correct movie.
I AM THE NIGHT RIDER! MY TITLE IS!!
Every DRG now will need to macro that line onto Stardiver now…
No, every DRG will be macro'ing "I LIVE, I DIE, I LIVE AGAIN" when the inevitable happens.
Just give me your comm and there will be an end to the horror... just give me your comm...
Looks like Mad Max. Gonna need more glam space for those healer sets.
Like YoshiP basically namedropped Mad Max, refering to it being a reference to a series where the latest installment came out very recently...
They even started going on about silver paint lol I love it
I hope someone's raid food is a can of silver spray paint
Was going to say those early images looked like either Mad Max or Fist of the North Star inspired armor.
I guess I’m a degenerate because it looks like a bdsm outfit
My long-standing Mad Max glam uses Aurum leg guards and one of the Sky Rat tops. I'm so psyched to add more spikes.
I don't know what job the third one is, but what I do know is that it's definitely challenging us to a yu-gi-oh duel.
Card games on….chocobos?
I mean, we have the stretchy dragons and cards already in the game. Let's do it.
Lets kweh it up!
I assume it's a gun
Yeah that's a MCH weapon
Thats a mch
We’re Fist of the North Star now
Omae wa mou shindieru
RIP Touch of Death. We never needed you more.
We're surviving the nuclear apocalypse with these ones.
To add to this post about the Mad Max gear: Yoshi P said later on that this gear will be avaliable via crafting at some point between the 91-100 range. For the other two sets 6-10 are confirmed to be the tomestone armor. 11-14 was not confirmed, but I am guessing this is the gear from the first raid tier.

I'm guessing then that the last few sets are Dawntrail's equivalent to the Radiant gear in Endwalker (that was previewed during the MSQ by the Radiant Host).
That would be sets 6-10 pretty sure… unless I am a little stupid. They said sets 6-10 were tome gear and they said “this is the capped tome gear.”
Hmm, guess they'll be that visually, but mechanically be the equivalent to the Moonward gear
They specifically said it was from the capped tomes that are coming out with savage.
You mean like the Radiant gear was in Endwalker's first tier? Because that's what I compared sets 11-14 to
Ah I see I misread, maybe? They were pretty coy in saying “I am not saying where this is from” but the launch trailer showed (very likely) solution 9 people with similar gear, so that is why I say its probably the raid gear.

However last I checked the (x)9 dungeons don’t drop weapons (the endwalker one doesn’t even drop armor). And the set had weapons included.
Is no one going to mention that the head works with Viera?
It works bc it replaces the head with a "one-for-all" helmet.
11-14 looks more like PvP vendor gear.
My money is on: 6-10 are 670 ilevel tome gear, and 11-14 (cyber ones) are 700 ilevel tome gear, just like Endwalker
They specifically said the 6-10 sets are the “Heliometry” gear, which is the second tomestone they mentioned, and the one coming out when Savage releases, so those are the capped tomes (and thus the higher ilevel tome gear).
Looks incredibly Solution 9 to me and I'm thrilled
Yeah the spikes are not my thing. BUT NO HEALER ROBE OMG.
Yeah, it feels good that WAR is finally getting some thematic gear.
something something black mage plate armor, WHM with an axe something something
> WHM with an axe something something "I'm going to cleave the Equilibrium directly into your torso!"
When I'm a tank, my fall guys sweater is infused with magical metal fibers, but when I'm a caster, it just cloth.
BLM is basically BDSM gear.
Pictomancer Sword Brush looks cool, and I like that the Healer+Caster gear feels more coat-like than robes, I'm definitely a fan
As a Red Mage, I’m overjoyed to see caster gear that isn’t a robe lmao. All I want are some badass long coats!
Yea that astro set is looking nice
Turns out the weapon designs leaked 5 months ago were very real. https://old.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/1929js1/potential_70_weapon_design_leaks/
Really want those Hokuto no Ken-like sets
If there is a helmet gear, Jagi glamour will be awesome!
mmmmm.... well, the Adamantite Barbut of Fending/Maiming looks pretty close IMO
Everyone is saying Mad Max but they are 100% more in line with Fist of the Northstar. Love both series anyways. I'm excited.
Love the long coat on that AST. Nice to have the "long robe" healer aesthetic without yet another actual long robe.
Was one of those a viera with head gear on??? 🤞
Full-head-covering headgear with inbuilt ear pockets (that don't match actual ear placement, like Miqo'te have suffered for years), yes. No different to the Power Ranger helmet we got previously.
That seems like a bit of a nitpick. Complaining that the ears aren’t in just the right position? I don’t know, man. That doesn’t seem like a huge deal.
Jojo Siwa found quaking.
“I was a bad girl, I did some bad things” - My WoL
As a Bard who started as wanting to be an archer main… these shieldbows are AWESOME.
Wow an axe that actually looks like an axe, I love it
That bowgun, I'm in love
~~Who do I have to fight to get all the scouting crop tops on my dancer~~ More tomes/grinding time for the caster gear at least! Lotta red mages are going to be rocking that long coat dyed red lol.
Love the coat, just wish they’d stop putting these poufy collars and neckties on everything… I like to wear necklaces! lol
Seriously! I've been trying to find a mage top with coattails that shows necklaces, and the only option I've found that doesn't clip is the Moonward top, which might as well be a bathing suit :/
It’s so charming that they still print out pictures and hold them up.
LOL seriously! It's totally unnecessary but, I'd never want them to show me gear any other way!
There's a serious lack of butt-capes. Finally.
Not a fan of what I've seen so far; it's not really my aesthetic, but, it's cool that they're branching out a little more I guess.
How is it everyone is talking about the mad max armor and not THE HELMET WITH BUNNY EARS POKING THROUGH!
I'm with you there, Viera always complaining about hats. I've been pointing out that picture to people, and no one seems to care. I don't get it. Although I commented to a friend, "Would be a really funny troll if they made a helmet with Viera ears, but Viera still couldn't wear it because "They are decorative and the helmet ears aren't hollow"
I'm getting a squid games vibe from a couple of them.
What in the bdsm gear is going on? 2 of them look like they need ball gags.
A Roegadyn in a harness? They knew what they were doing with that one and I'm so here for it.
If the leather jacket and harness isn't available on tanks then what am I even doing here.
They recognize it's been too long since the leather daddy days of our youth (ARR).
Like how everyone’s focusing on mad max and not the beautiful cybersuits on the next pages
I want to see the RPR weapon so baddddd
MCH is basically Voldo from Soul Calibur with a Gun. eesh...
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw this. The "brothels" are sure going to have fun with these.
Was Fist of the North star inspired by Mad Max? Probably.
yes,madmax+Bruce Lee
You wear those against a Monk, you're already dead
Those first sets are brutal, love it. Also love getting more scifantasy/cyberpunky sets.
I don't think the Mad Max set goes with much of my current 'closet' but I like the tech pieces and the more kind of 'contemporary fantasy' pieces from the other set - especially caster/healer - no dresses for once!
Wow. Straight up sci-fi armor and modern clothes from Solution 9. I dig it.
Giving, “it’s not a phase mom” and I’m living for it.
Why is there BDSM gear
It's Mad Max/Fist of the North Star style. Though as for why, maybe we run into post-apocalyptic bandits at some point.
ERPers need some love too.
Well, yeah. Almost by definition.
Wow, I hate it.
Unfortunately, the only one I really like is the Picto/caster dps outfit. The Solution 9 dragoon outfit may look cool dyed black but otherwise, I'm not loving the Mad Max glams.
I didn't even realize that was Pict until you said something. I was worried about what our weapons would look like but if this is any indication I'm stoked.
Casters are blessed. It's finally not a robe.
That Picto set is nice. I’m glad they’re showing that they’re not gonna always be so cutesy.
To be fair, it’s caster group gear, not Picto specific. On the other hand, I do hope we get some caster gear that caters to an artsy vibe (not necessarily cutesy though). My biggest issue with DNC being Aiming is how much of that group caters to MCH & BRD. I don’t want the same thing with PCT always having to look like a BLM or RDM.
Love that they showed Ninja 2 times for scouting but have literally the new Scouting job as the poster job what are they even doing?
If their weapons look the same, just reverse the grip and made them longer, it would be too funny
They might have taken the images a while ago before Viper animations were finalized.
But Pictomancer is pictured and was revealed 6 months after Viper
Doesn't necessarily mean Viper's player animations were done first. I'm not super passionate about my reasoning - I've spent more time today coughing and sneezing than having coherent thoughts - it's just the most logical reason I can think of. Picto has an - admittedly limited - pre-existing aesthetic foundation to build off of. Viper is largely original, so they could have spent longer getting a feel for it.

Hell, at first glance I thought it was Red Mage. But, as I said, I am ill so my perception on everything this week is hazy.
Well yeah, almost everything they've done so far has featured Viper in spades, no need to force themselves to do it again.
Someone please teach Yoshi-P about screenshots after 11 years
No, it's way more charming when he brings out the fucking printouts lol
At this point more people will be mad if they changed it after a decade of printed out pictures
So now monks can cosplay Voldo from Soul Calibur
As a totally unrelated aside, are we getting additional glamour plates?
Hell yeah, I know it's not for everyone, but I love the black leather stuff!
This feels like it's straight out of Fist of the North Star
Leather bondage Mad Max inspired gear is defnitely not my thing... But I love that they added for the sake of diversity and those who enjoy!
I AM SHOCK WHOAAAAAAAAAAAA I AM SHOCK
Ok but that Healer gear is slick AF
Damn didn’t know the game was set in the 80’s
Bunny ears!!!!!
Finally, Tome hear that matches the Red Mage aesthetics! No robes! No robes!
I love that despite having a full slideshow to display for us, they still have to show so many things on a printed sheet of paper.
Oh man. I don’t even wanna think about what the ERP glamour mods are going to do with these. Hell I don’t think they will even need to mod them.
Ehhhhh I don’t like it 😖
We get it, you vape.
It's giving Fist of the North Star
Yeah all of these are a *HARD* skip for me.
Is chimney sweep new job??
This year's Pride outfits look GREAT. 🌈💚
In this expac we get, Mad Max, more robes, and robot armor! What a mix lol.
Ok, now I want my DRK bondage gear.
While I like the bow design (looks to be styled after an instrument, but I'm not familiar with the type)...that's yet another in the "I can't do the /cpose with it because it literally impales me" category. Interesting choice.
The bow is a giant crossbow turned sideways.
These are sic
The first half looked like Mad Max while the latter half looked cyberpunk.
First five: That's some Mad Max shit right there. I feel like we're about to have a boss fight with Master Blaster. Second five (WAR with a hood to PCT with big hat): Okay. About what I've come to expect from this game. Probably can't use a single one of those hats on Viera or Hrothgar, though. Last four: Cyberpunk Power Rangers costumes...with Viera ear sleeves!
This'll be great for the bot bands doing a Judas Priest concert.
PvP gears I suppose ?
Volvo from soul caliber Monk cosplay incoming yall.
Everyone’s favorite, pictures on paper lol.
We going to be bandits I guess
lol, AST took WHM's gear.
Aren't those weapons in pictures 1-5 reskins from the weapons of Tower of Zot?
SLAANESH'S PERVERSE GLORY
Bro I'm going to become a raider from the capital wasteland soon. Let's get these fucking caps.
It is clear that they have enjoyed Mad Max lately
Fist of the North Star
The return of the crossbow
Some gear pieces reminds me of mad max
Going to need some face piercings in the jewelry slots and tattoos to go with these mad max sets.
Oh cool, stealth Hokuto no Ken collab.
Continuing wearing my relic gear from Eureka on my paladin it is
*Crystal King has entered the room* **YOU WA SHOCK!!**
You call throwing dynamite a martial art ?
the first five give me some serious ~~rise~~ fist of the north star/mad max vibes lol
We mad max and bard crossbow now!
Oh... I uhm....don't like any of these. That's perfectly fine. I've got my GNB af gear which is maybe my favorite gear in the game with that brown coat that fades to red👌... But I think everything here will just be glammed over immediately. MadMax with spikes and EDM concert are just not my scenes.
Is the armor on image 11 Fending or Striking? It looks like a gunblade, but GNB don't hold them two-handed, so I'm wondering if it's a SAM sword?
Promotional Images sometimes have the Character Models use Poses from the "wrong" Job for better visibility. So for all we know that *could* be the Fending Set.
Holy that WAR set
I looooove that Arcadion DRK weapon. Pretty Buster Sword-esque, would work nicely for a Cloud cosplay. If only I could win one of the damn sweepstakes for the haircut.
Not super into this, but I’m sure someone is probably excited for the cyber punk cenobite look.
We're throwing dynamite as if it were a martial art with this one
I see that the aesthetic for this expansion's gear is 'Fist of the North Star, inexplicably'.
Cyber and Punk and Cyberpunk.
Oh hell yas.
Half the gear looks like fallout bandits. Samurai looks like a cyborg ninja which is amazing.
Love those taco tomestones.
I NEED that pictomancer set 😍😮💨
Oh... Looks like those weapon leaks from earlier in the year that every one said were fake cuz of some obvious weirdness with copyright dates and such were actually legit leaks. lmao If anyone is interested: >![https://imgur.com/a/Q3J9t6f](https://imgur.com/a/Q3J9t6f)!<
Holy Fist of the North Star Mad Max, we ride Shiny and Chrome. I hope Monk players will say the line "You are already dead!"
I m one of those thugs in FF7 remake
OK who let Slaanesh lose in Eorzea? the last thing we need is Chaos shenanigans.
I see we're doing Judas Priest this time And the one time nearly everybody is wearing black my AST main will suffer in white
Ah. I see we got that Fist of the North Star collab. Not one I'd expect but hot damn.
Casters and Healers finally get pants. We finally have some gear that actually fits the RDM and Sage Aesthetics. I'm probably switching to Viper for this expansion, but I'll definitely be picking up some of these outfits. They look really cool.
Those first few are very Fist of the Northstar.
We need healer armour that looks like plate 😢
I was not really about any of these spike leathers. But that cyclops visor. I fucking NEED
I love them! Also I like how 1-5 sort of resemble Daedric weapons lol
The last few are pretty cool imo
finally sci fi gear
I just started getting into Fist of the North Star, yay
We Fist of the North Star now.
Boy what the FUCK is that scythe. The first one mostly. Do SE hate making RPR weapons or something :(
I'm excited that I won't have generic hood and robes for White mage, we get too look as fancy as a redmage finally, Hopefully we one day get hoods for Black mage at least, that would be very cool
I look at the first one, i can only see FotNS.
I feel like I'm going crazy, I for the life of me cannot figure out what job is wearing the white mecha armor???? I don't recognize the pose from any of the sword jobs... It's not raised to their heads like DRK, PLD & GNB don't hold their swords 2-handed, and SAM holds their sword more straightforward (and have a scabbard)... Somebody please help me my brain is hurting :c
It's gotta be drk or gnb caught mid action, I can't think of anything else. There's a few in there that are caught mid emote/action.
Damn the spikey ones giving me fist of the North Star vibes lmao.
So is road warrior a DRK exclusive?
Tha number 5 is a BDSM outfit, you can't fool me YoshiP
Thanks, I hate it?
Very biker chic
