I agree: having a ton of "useless" items around really sucks.

My friends all have an entire set of gear that they'll never use just because it's on a class/job that they'll never use. Having a load of these items lying around is a waste. Selling them for 10-15 gil is also pretty much a waste.

If our old gear could be exchanged for seals then why can't these gears?


Granted, it'd be awesome if we could trade them off to our friends who needs them (basically, everyone who does Titan HM knows that picking up the weapon is nigh on useless since you'll be getting your Relic in a few short minutes of grinding out the Philosophy Tomes for it) but I can understand why it's not in place.

Still, it's a little bit of a missed opportunity and I can see OP's view on this.
