I certainly hope they've learned from this particular failed experiment and this mentality hasn't found its way into FFXIV... I don't think I can take it for much longer... From purely a role-playing perspective... who the hell changes armor mid-battle!?
I thought we figured that out long ago. Yes, you're correct.

Maybe you'd have different gear sets for different situations or mob types, but I don't think they expected us to be swapping gear mid-battle like a schizophrenic Superman in a phone booth.

FFXIV doesn't let you swap gear while you're in battle. That was one of the first questions I asked when I met up with a few friends in game.
