OK, so BDO SEA servers got the nice, dyeable Glorious Shudad in this patch.
Meanwhile.....NA and EU servers got the terrible, overpriced, NON-dyeable Black Shudad YET AGAIN.
What's the deal, Pearl Abyss?
Let me just say, I'm glad that PA is self publishing so people realize more and more the problem is PA.
We don't get the regular dyeable version (that other servers have for the same price as all the other costumes) because in here Glorious Shudad was the 150€ founder's pack exclusive costume. They just picked one of the already existing outfits back then to sell in the west at a very high price to founders. They knew people in here would happily pay a premium price for a recolor and they can use the excuse of not making founders angry since they can kind of keep the exclusivity still (even though that costume was never special in any way on other servers).
If only that were true....
The original founder's edition was simply called 'Shudad'. They re-released it as 'Glorious Shudad', so the DK's, Mystics, and Strikers could buy it. Then, they sold it again so the Lahns could buy it. Each time, it was available to all existing classes.
You can still flex your founder's edition if it doesn't say 'Glorious' on it.
Non-dyeable Black Shudad is garbage.
Oh man, that makes it even worse. I haven't been playing for years so didn't even know the Glorious Shudad and founder's version were separate. Makes no sense to sell this Black Shudad in that case...
Wait... its non-dyable? ... why?!
