if I don't use the lux version I also personally really love the hyperconductive Anima version of the sword and shield a nice minimalistic blue glow with nice orange and redish highlights
I’m leveling PLD now and I have to say I really love that bucklers aren’t considered weaker than kite shields. I love high level shields on the smaller side!
Yeah you can get great glams with bucklers. With wolf marks you have a scimitar available that imo pairs well with the Mol round shield. Then you have a middle eastern esthetic going.
I really like the Sword of the Forgiven (L79 dungeon) for a non-effect sword that looks really good. It's got a great design and color scheme that looks especially good with brighter armor sets. The Neo-Ishgardian Sword has the same design and is dyable but the gems inlaid on the sword are all the same color. The gems on its forgiven counterpart are red, blue, yellow and green. It reminds me of old school FF plots with the four elemental crystals, which I think is cool.
Great list! I am loving the Manderville set and really hoping they do something new and creative with the particle effects. It would be cool to see the eagles cast, like a hologram from the shield.
Honorary mention: dropped weapons in Castrum Abania! Royal, angellic white! ^^ i wear mine with pvp halone mail dyed pearl white and that one helmet with feathery wings. Dyed to suit wings on shield.
Galatine Anemos/Evalach Anemos are my favorites. The base model and textures are beautiful, and the particle effects don't overwhelm them. And they're from the first Eureka zone so they're not hard to get.
Thanks for putting this together! I do like the PLD aesthetic, but man, it could be hard finding a good combo. Of the relic weapons, the Anemos line I think is the best. A lot of the relic and crafted swords have such thick blades, it looks unwieldy. It's one of the reasons I'd never go for the ARR one. I also wish we could give the Zantetsuken a glow.
Hyper basic, but for a non-effect sword I love the Dzemael Winglet. Very clean, minimalistic design with proportions that look like it could be a real sword with a splash of fantasy elements with a wing crossguard motif that really sells a holy warrior aesthetic. The gold color of the hilt I also think looks better than the white version of the colbalt winglet. And the crossguard opens up when you draw it, making an extremely satisfying click sound and adding a bit more visual flair.
I use the 75 Ravel top dyed blue with the manderville sword/shield, they go together perfectly in matched blue/gold/silver design. #1 relic i want to see next evolution for!
One of my favorites not mentioned here is an oldy but damn, the high allagan sword are shield are so good. In general I love the high allagan stuff with its high contrasts but I specially love the sword and shield.
Personally for me recently I'm into Byakko's Sword & Shield. It has the ink brush effect when swung around. For me it's quite unique because I've never seen this kind of effect done on any weapon except this one.
Sorta new but where can I see the gear sets or well... Clothes you show for plenty of these? I love the clothing combinations as well but sadly idk the name of every single set on the game yet.
For mine I love uaing the zantetsuken (i think thats how its spelled) sword and shinryu shield. I have a soft spot for retractable weapons and the swords always nice to see form out of the hilt
I got the ARR warrior relic and I just can't bring myself to go through that again. I'll just stick to heavensward relics until we get more Mandervilles. Bozja is basically dead and I haven't been able to finish DR yet because of that and Eureka is just too much of a time investment to be worth it for 1 - 2 weapons that I may want.
I really love the Warrior of Light Tank-Set from Crystal Tower. (Wish there was an update with higher resolution, tho.) But I cannot decide for a Sword and Shield matching to it. ^^ Right now I’m using a hidden shield an the ilvl 520 tomestone weapon. ^^ Any suggestions? :D It’s also a pitty that the swords clips with the little bag when sheathed, and large shields clip trough the… uh… collar? „Kragen“?
The Manderville sword and shield look great. Looking forward to seeing how they evolve. I think the Edenchoir Bastard Sword looks awesome too, I love when the guard of a sword has wings on it. The shield counterpart, the Edenchoir Scutum is a pretty cool tall shield.
Yes Paladin thnx it's now my main but haven't delved in glamor weapons to much. Like the Lux blue flame edition. Don't like the more Dark weapons cause I'm going for a more holy knight esthetic. But if going more DRK themed then those weapons definitely work and are very beautifull. Am hoping for good Manderville glow too. The Mandeville gives of a Link Hylian shield vibe. Whish the sword was a bit slimmer tho. So SMN lux and PLD lux. Are all the Lux weapons that good?
Can someone tell me if there is a slightly easier way to get Curtana and Holy Shield Ultima? since I never knew if it is possible to do like the other trails that you enter now at lvl90
PLD main here. Im not a damage nut, personally. I want PLD to get stronger so people dont audibly sigh when i join their party. But personally i prefer having more utility than more damage.
I thought the ARR relic was ok for PLD. then after getting it, I kind of hate the darkening in the middle. Same with Honorbound & Tenacity. The base design was already good, why was it darkened so much that the texture doesn't show. Augmented Law & Order is the best phase from ShB relics. disappointed with the 6th phase. Heavensward relic, almost everything looks good. This is how I was thinking the ARR relic & Honorbound & Tenacity should treat the darkened part of the weapon. The effect also good, I don't really like the spike on the bottom of the shield though. same with DRK's claymore, the sudden 2 spikes at the end feels weird for me. The only weird one from Heavensward relic is probably BLM, look like chupa chups
It's actually pretty good now. Slightly less, but viable, damage is still good damage. And then factoring the party utility, its a nice pick, atleast from a certain tanking perspective

As a holy class, I feel there is a surprising lack of holy shining weapons, most are actually dark or fire
You are right, that is why I like the ARR one, it gives good holy vibes, while having a dark core 👍
To be fair, in many mythologies fire is used to cleanse and as such is considered holy. For instance a lot of angels uses fire to purge & smite foes.
if I don't use the lux version I also personally really love the hyperconductive Anima version of the sword and shield a nice minimalistic blue glow with nice orange and redish highlights
Try dropped weapons in Castrum Abania! Royal, angellic white! ^^
@@DesperiusFFXIV are you doing a ps5 giveaway or am i beeing scammed ?

Once I get PLD to 90, I will be equipping those Manderville weapons ASAP. Pretty much exactly what I am going for with my PLD look.
**video starts with FFT music** automatically 10/10

Bro, I'm hype for the potential Dawntrail changes for Excalibur, it's going to look amazing. Easily my favorite PLD weapon aesthetically.
Honorary mention: dropped weapons in Castrum Abania! Royal, angellic white! ^^ i wear mine with pvp halone mail dyed pearl white and that one helmet with feathery wings. Dyed to suit wings on shield.
I have high hopes for the Manderville weapons, its been hard to top Aettir in my eyes
I enjoy the look of the Gordian sword and shield simple in design yet the colouring of it can change it drastically
Galatine Anemos/Evalach Anemos are my favorites. The base model and textures are beautiful, and the particle effects don't overwhelm them. And they're from the first Eureka zone so they're not hard to get.
I love them, just that I like the Augmented Law's Order more
same here, other PLD sword are kind of to short for me
As a trash PLD and still in SHB leveling, I run a somewhat minimalistic with the Sword of the Round and the Fortemps shield. Looks good and clean.
Ritter Shield and Sword for the girly aesthetics. The shield had so much details it’s just a shame there isn’t a glowing version.
I use those with a pink-dyed creed armor set and haven't found anything I like better. They look ++great on the forgiven reticence mount.
Gives me the extra boosts for working trough the books of my first relic! 😁Awesome stuff!
Zantetsuken and Augmented Shire Shield in slate grey dye combo is perfect for me :)
Whoa what's that chest piece in the first glam? The Ultima Weapon sword and shield.
Did you ever find out? Interested too!
@@gatr16 yeah I think it's the shadowstalker armor set from the old feast rewards
Thanks for putting this together! I do like the PLD aesthetic, but man, it could be hard finding a good combo. Of the relic weapons, the Anemos line I think is the best.

Excalibur was my first relic I ever earned in 14 and I still use it with my Paladin to this day.
very cool weapons. My fave is TEA but I’m definitely going to look into some of these for other glams.
I use the 75 Ravel top dyed blue with the manderville sword/shield, they go together perfectly in matched blue/gold/silver design. #1 relic i want to see next evolution for!
Nothing beats the Honorbound Recollection and the Tenacity Recollection. Those are an easy number one for me.
@Desperius FFXIV Irgendwie haben es Scammer auf deine Identität abgesehen. :/

I absolutely love those augmented Law's Order weapons!
Paladin gear is always some of the coolest in every MMO.
I got the ARR warrior relic and I just can't bring myself to go through that again. I'll just stick to heavensward relics until we get more Mandervilles. Bozja is basically dead and I haven't been able to finish DR yet because of that and Eureka is just too much of a time investment to be worth it for 1 - 2 weapons that I may want.
i did Eureka for the gear glam for PLD :)
i kinda like BA and i 100% recommend to do Eureka with a friend group
Maybe basic but the Aettir and Prywen Lux are pretty much perfect in my eyes.
I really love the Warrior of Light Tank-Set from Crystal Tower. (Wish there was an update with higher resolution, tho.) But I cannot decide for a Sword and Shield matching to it. ^^ Right now I’m using a hidden shield an the ilvl 520 tomestone weapon. ^^ Any suggestions? :D It’s also a pitty that the swords clips with the little bag when sheathed, and large shields clip trough the… uh… collar? „Kragen“?
A year late but I love to use the sword and shield of Light with that armor set.
I've been gone from the game for a long while. what chest armor is that at 0:55? other than that awesome video!
Had been a PvP reward, that you cannot get anymore, unfortunately
Lol sounds about, right
Sharpened Sword of the Twin Thegns and Sharpened Shield of the Twin Thegns from HW relic weapons go amazingly with the paladin 90 job gear.
Sharpened Sword and Shield are under-rated it seems. Would definitely put it ahead of Zeta sword/shield.
i have a question, once your done with a relic weapon line, can you just get the previous stages without having to grind it all over again?
You can get a replica of each individuell step
For me your rank 10 is NR 1.
I absolutly love that blue 1hand sword+ shield :D
Yeah I like it a lot too
Eh, I'm sticking to my Zantetsuken and Skjoldr cause Odin is my fav primal, good vid though
Anyone know the armor glams used when the Tsukuyomi set is being shown off?
Newer to the game and love that look.
Can you do a non weapon glamour video already
Wish there were more swords that didn't look like paddles from the walmart toy section
The Manderville sword and shield look great. Looking forward to seeing how they evolve.
I think the Edenchoir Bastard Sword looks awesome too, I love when the guard of a sword has wings on it. The shield counterpart, the Edenchoir Scutum is a pretty cool tall shield.
It't not fair using ultimates man, that's gonna take me even more than the zodiac relics >:(
Could you please do a top 10 samurai arms
Really awesome gshade setting!! Mind sharing them?
Just made a video about my recent presets, 3 days ago. Just check it out 👍
What’s the armor set you have paired with the augmented law and order set in your video
Curtana Nexus is my favorite paladin weapon
Yes Paladin thnx it's now my main but haven't delved in glamor weapons to much. Like the Lux blue flame edition. Don't like the more Dark weapons cause I'm going for a more holy knight esthetic.

So SMN lux and PLD lux. Are all the Lux weapons that good?
Lux Anima is a very popular choice, so I guess it can be considered an absolute favourite of the community. The whole Anima Series is fire indeed !
Dang thought we’d see the Sword of Twin Thegns combo on this list haha.
Yeah, that is epic as well, had it on the list as well
@@DesperiusFFXIV it’s my first and favorite haha! Still great video! Appreciate your content especially your anima guide.
Great video but... on Rank 10 what glem amor is on the Char here? can sombody tell me.... :(
One that I love that isn't on your list is Excalibur, the Zodiac weapon from ARR. I simply love the design of it
Can someone tell me if there is a slightly easier way to get Curtana and Holy Shield Ultima?
since I never knew if it is possible to do like the other trails that you enter now at lvl90
What is that last set with the green glow and wings?
where do you get the jacket from the PLD had on at 3:42
YoRHa Type-55 Fending from The Tower at Paradigm's Breach alliance shadowbringers raid
As a GNB main I'm very jealous of their amazing glams & weapons... however I bet they are jealous of my damage.
PLD main here. Im not a damage nut, personally. I want PLD to get stronger so people dont audibly sigh when i join their party. But personally i prefer having more utility than more damage.
What is the weapon/shield at the end? The one with the greenish glow
Shinryu's Ephemeral Set
What is the one with the dark blue/black effect? @ 0:28 and 7:13
The Enspirited Byakko Set, found on the market board
@@DesperiusFFXIV Thank you!
Is it accurate to assume that all or most of these have DRK versions as well?
7:26 weapon?
I thought the ARR relic was ok for PLD. then after getting it, I kind of hate the darkening in the middle. Same with Honorbound & Tenacity. The base design was already good, why was it darkened so much that the texture doesn't show.
Augmented Law & Order is the best phase from ShB relics. disappointed with the 6th phase.
Heavensward relic, almost everything looks good. This is how I was thinking the ARR relic & Honorbound & Tenacity should treat the darkened part of the weapon. The effect also good, I don't really like the spike on the bottom of the shield though. same with DRK's claymore, the sudden 2 spikes at the end feels weird for me.
The only weird one from Heavensward relic is probably BLM, look like chupa chups
in my opinion most arr Relics are like the end glam, when you have it you don't need glams anymore. ( for now :) )
What set is that showcased at 7:08 ?
The Epic of Alexander Weapon
It's about time. Lol.
this will be helpful in 6.3 when pld is actually good xdd
It's actually pretty good now. Slightly less, but viable, damage is still good damage. And then factoring the party utility, its a nice pick, atleast from a certain tanking perspective
Fire vid
Very disappointed in that these weapons are more suited for a Dark Knight than a Paladin!!!
