Accesory Slot Cost

what the D:, my English is bad, but i know that "we will be lowering the amount of accessories that can be equipped" is different from "remove equipping slots"

I'm happy as long as i can still wear two earrings and a necklace D:!

Like someone mentioned, please let us turn off earrings if it will become standard to use all accessory slots. A lot of the higher tier ones are really gaudy on us guy characters. Maybe all accessory slots cause the gold chains are a bit much too haha

In conjunction with this, we will be lowering the amount of accessories that can be equipped and increasing each accessory’s effects.

Yoshi-P will be giving some more details on this in the very near future, so please look forward to it.

So we are either getting working visual enabled armored slots removed or the ability to use only so many slots at once? ...This is going to be a bit of a pointless change (Higher strength is great but why not just open all and leave at current strength, cause that in itself ups the effects of accessories).

The problem currently is the limit/restrictions on the system, so the devs team answer to fix this is to...restrict us?! ... *facepalm*...

Now you can use 2 Mythril Wristlet, or 3 Rings... In future, even if the decide to remove 2 of the 4 rings slots, you'll can wear up to 7 accessories... I'm so happy! :D

lol this ^

Tanaka has always seemed very.... mm... confined to his own delusions of genius and not willing to modernize or freshen his own ideas.
i however agree that taking away Acc. slots is a little weird.
why is one limitation better than the other? its the same ish!

Another point is that this change might also be forcing players to use accessory in every slot, just like in FFXI. It won't be a strategic choice anymore...or you equip stuff in that slot or you will be losiing attribute...which is terrible...i don't wanna be forced to wear chokers ><

Rename 'Slot Cost' to something like 'Bling Bling' or 'Bedazzlocity' or 'Gaudiness' and I will tolerate it D:

I am confused as to why I cannot wear bracelets if my earrings are too fancy. Unless the bracelets are actually armbands(totally not the same thing), in which case it's totally okay.

Bad move, no good... :(
Keep the accessory slot cost then, at least I can vary my character's look. *sigh*

What a load of crap, everyone chucking a hissy fit because they are BARELY altering the way accessories are used in the game.. "Yoshi-P has been doing amazing work and listening to everything we bitch and moan about for months, but if he does what we ask for concerning accessories in a way that is not quite what we want, FIRE HIS ASS!" I am disappoint, Lienn.

The way that I assume the system will work is allowing players to use the same amount of accessories at lvl 1 as lvl 50, which lets u upgrade your gear to higher lvl, higher bonus gear without having to equip less items. Seems to me that's exactly what people were asking for towards the beginning of the thread. If you don't like it, choke on your words, I think it's a good change.

Wrong. People are upset because yet again, options, decisions, and consequences are being eroded away for an instruction manual led way in which to play.

That may be what some people are worried about, I didn't get that impression from a single reply following the Dev's post on here eluding to the changes though. Just a bunch of confused people failing to understand the change.

I'd like to see our rings that we wear over the gloves. It's a shame that the art team went into the work of modeling all the rings and we can't even see them with our gloves on. The rings look very well detailed and actually match the 2D picture in the Gear menu.

.... Yes.... I want to jingle jangle as I run through the land, and act as shiny shiny bait for all the monsters to see. plus being grand and drenched in jewels and gold... wouldn't you love feeling like an elite of Eroza?(sp?)

I think what a lot of people are missing is that this is essentially for the sake of balance. They're making accessories more potent while reducing the max number of accessories. However this is better than slot cost as you can now actually use those higher tier rings which had obnoxious slot costs.

we have 100 inventory spaces too do we have to fill those?

Spelt is correct...

Having all of the slots available seems a bit over-the-top, I'm fine with it as it is.

actually...spelt isn't correct...

Imo eliminate 2 of the ring slots, and allow you to equip something in the rest of the accessory slots with no slot cost.

I feel that allowing players to wear Earrings, Neck, and Wrist would add to the game, and make me feel less "Naked". It makes no sense to wear other things than rings, due to the slot cost and minimal stat differences of accessories other than rings.

It'd be nice to see if the Devs still have plans for this; as if i recall correctly it was mentioned that this was something they were planning to do.

Thanks for any confirmation and/or comments.


**YAY SPELT THE TITLE WRONG X_X**

They said they where removing slot cost all together :)

And we have a winner! being able t upgrade to a max of lets say 16 to 20 through quest lines is most certainly the solution.

I like that the jewellry we equip can actually be seen on our character model, don't think any other MMO does that.
Was quite amazed when I first equipped a Fang Earring and could actually see it hanging from my ear.

So yes, remove the slot cost, I want more stats + more shiny stuff :D
