In response to User Interface post " Feature Request / Suggestion: Grey out equipped"

due to the ridiculous rules set by the forums... i was only allowed 1 post in the general threads, so i am posting a reply to this forum here in the off chance someone sees this and can relay my message to said topic.

with what i've noticed on how its setup, it swaps out gear positions with whatever you replace to equip said items when switching gear sets or manually equiping. While it would be nice to have the items keep a "reserved" slot, i don't think it would work. Now what they need to do is make it clear in the armory what items are registered in the armor sets for other classes. Some type of border or coloration of the icon to make it more clear that Body Armor X is registered to Conjurer while i'm currently a Botanist... and so on.

The disorder that is the armory isn't terrible. it would only get bad if you can't tell what armor is equipped to what class and end up tossing one piece to later find out it was part of a set for another class and have to manually re-equip everything for said class.

And speaking of which, can we get a fix to the gear sets. If, for the reason i mentioned above, we remove a piece of equipment from our armory chest(short of the tool/weapon) allow us to still use that armor set instead of making the equip fail altogether. And add a notice saying "Some of the armor in this set does not exist anymore, please check" or something similar to this.
