Feature Request: Job Specific "Wardrobe" Container

[Webjester]

Hello Final Fantasy XI Community and Dev Team!

Firstly, thanks for continuing to keep Final Fantasy XI alive and vibrant! Secondly, hopefully this is being posted in the correct area for consideration.

Problem Statement

A common issue for End Game players, particularly with content like Odyssey which requires a wide variety of Jobs, is the increasing lack of functional Inventory Space. Modern FFXI has quite a bit of Job Specific Gear now, which compounds this issue. Even with 8 Wardrobes, players with multiple jobs geared up are running out of space to store gear, limiting their ability to quickly change jobs to the required role when party building.

Proposed Solution

A new, per-job "Wardrobe", container. This Wardrobe would be a new select-able entry in the Storage Menu, would be accessible/visible only while on the selected job, and would otherwise function just like the existing Wardrobes 1-8.

This would, ideally, be used for Job specific gear such as Artifact, Relic, Empyrean Armor sets, Dynamis D Necks, Empyrean Earrings, Ambuscade Capes, etc. Creating a per-job container for the storage of Job Specific Gears would allow players to maximize the potential of each job while by enabling them access to additional gear space.

(Credit to Leviathan.Warsongs for the idea.)

Example and Detail

Player changes main job to Black Mage, selects the Storage Menu. A menu option labeled "BLM Wardrobe" (or similar) becomes available. This Container is only select-able and accessible while on the Black Mage Job and would allow the player to move Job Specific Gear in and out of the container, and directly equip it.

Player changes main job to Rune Fencer, then selects the Storage Menu again. The menu option now displays "RUN Wardrobe" and is a completely separate storage space. The player may now move Job Specific Gear in and out of this container, and directly equip it.

Note: The proposed method would prohibit the player from accessing these items unless they are on the selected job, but also significantly reduce potential User Interface clutter by only displaying the active job "Container".

This container would otherwise function just like the existing Wardrobe 1-8, allowing the player to directly equip the item from the Job Specific Wardrobe.

Proposed Container Names

<Job> Attire
<Job> Garb
<Job> Wardrobe
<Job> Closet
