This came up because I have been levelling my DoH and DoL jobs lately, and I was re-reading Hairspray's thread about having a single set of crafting gear for every job. And when I read it, my first reaction was, "But what about dress up time?"
I enjoy the different looks for each class's AF. You can achieve the same amount of Craftsmanship, Control and CP using AF instead of the pimped out HQ Patricians:
HQ offhand: Tier 1 Craftsmanship
HQ hat: Tier 1 Craftsmanship
HQ body: Tier 1 Craftsmanship, Tier 1 Craftsmanship
HQ hands: Tier 1 Craftsmanship
HQ legs: Tier 2 Control, Tier 3 CP
HQ feet: Tier 2 Control, Tier 3 CP
It still requires pimping out your waist and accessories the same way. But those are non-visible, all-class slots. I wound up doing Tier 3 Control on the legs and feet instead of Tier 2, so that if I choose to pimp them out later, I don't have dump the current materia and start over. On my server, the cost for the materia for one class is around 50k (if you use Tier 2 control) to 70k (if you use Tier 3 control).
