changing gearsets animation.

I know its minor, but I've always wondered why when changing gearsets, your character doesn't do that animation it does when you change preview gear in character creation. Seems odd that they'd go through the trouble to have a character animation that is seen only during character creation. This would be a perfect way to bring it into the actual game.

It's already an emote. You can do it with /examineself.

Also, it breaks the fourth wall. During character creation and you pop on new armor, your character is admiring the new armor that just appeared onto them.

In-game when that character is supposed to be "you" it wouldn't make sense for you to look surprised at the gear you intended to put on. You don't think "oh hey, where did this come from? It looks nice" everytime you put on your shoes do you?

And yes, you can do the emote if you really want to. :)

lol, I suppose I would too. Still waiting on those back to the future shoes! :P

I miss the cool animations from 1.0 when you equipped your job crystals. Each one was unique.
