    The easy solution is to have your class defined by what weapon you have equipped, and your job defined by the armor that you wear.

    Wearing "generic" armor ~~> no job equipped
    Wearing "Job" armor ~~> job equipped
    (note: can only equip Job armor after unlocking the job)
    This would all fall nicely under the armoury system, both class and job.

    FF: 4 Heros of Light your hat defined your job. Was really cute.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    It was your originally mentioning this mechanic that set off this idea in my head. The more I think on it the more it seems like an elegant and natural way to set both class and job.

    The only thing that dismays me about it is the impact on my poor, poor, inventory .

    I think if they did this they'd have to implement a seperated inventory bag for Weapons and hats.

    A separate tab for gear would be fantastic.

    This would just be for class defining gear. Hats that defined your job (ala 4 Heros of Light) and Weapons that defined your class.

    It wouldn't have to be.

    I cry every time I'm at the Tanner's guild and Fen-Yll Fineries and see all those beautiful bags on display, and yet not for sale ...
