I know you don't technically have to do it, but I wouldn't want to be dead weight in groups so I'd end up doing it in the end. If nothing else, isn't it annoying seeing your character phase in and phase out repeatedly while fighting? I'm not sure I could ever get used to that.

This game kinda need gear swapping to have substance though.

As "annoying seeing your character phase in and out repeatly" issue.....honestly the only thing I ever stare at on DD jobs are my HP/TP and chat log. If I play mages I only stare at PT HP/MP bar and chat log as well. Tbh I rarely look at my character in events :X Any sec I spend on looking at my character on DD jobs I'd lose DPS due to over TP, any sec I spend on looking at my char instead of PT HP my pt would start dying. So no, I don't really feel annoyed with my character blinking. If I want to look at my character I do that in town/MH.
