    Make the wardrobe job-specific, (Or create a second, job-specific wardrobe), this new wardrobe doesn't even need to load if you're not on a particular job, and it shouldn't accept gear that's not job specific, for example:

    I'm on Blue Mage, I have a wardrobe that I can only add items to that are equippable by Blue Mage, and Blue Mage only, I can equip directly from it, like our current wardrobe.

    When I change jobs to Warrior, my "Blue Mage wardrobe" completely dissapears and doesn't load, isn't visible anywhere on my character (thus, not creating 22 more inventories worth of server load every zone, only one specific to my job, exactly like wardrobe is now.) There would only be one wardrobe-per-job-per-player.

    To prevent items getting "lost", these wardrobes should only accept job-specific-equipment, so that you can't go, "Oh where did I put my Thaumas body?" But, you don't care about your Blue Mage AF's location when you're on Warrior, so it's fine to be completely unfindable, for example.
    I don't get it, how'd wardrobe being job specific reduce the load time??? I thought the load time is long because we have 160 inventory spaces, so it doesn't matter if you're loading BLU wardrobe or WAR wardrobe, it's always 160 inventory spaces, thus the time is the same.

    Another issue is that, the point of wardrobe is to give players more inventory, if it's job specific only, then you get less inventory than 160.

    For example, currently I use over 150 gears on COR, but out of all those gears, only AF sets x3, JSE cap and 1 gun is "job specific". So that's only 17 equipment being job specific.

    If the wardrobe can only store job specific gears, I'd have to leave 50 gears in MH.

    I don't see how this system would reduce the load time at all, without sacrificing the amount of gears I can carry.
