    I don't know about an overhaul, but changes really should be made to accommodate multi-slotted gear.

    It's vanity gear, it should work with the vanity system. Simple as that. That it doesn't already is totally ridiculous.

    Looking at you guys throw around Whiteknight makes me a little sick. I think the system is pretty good as it is and while it features some restrictions it's reasonably open. However it'd be nice if people could use things like Odin's Armor or some of the other one piece items. I doubt implementing a fix would require an "overhaul" nor is the system "bad" because it doesn't have this feature. I wish you guys understood what mockeries of thinking adults you look like when you make something so simple and non-offensive into some either-or slap fight.

    whiteknight overhaul… i care little .. MY CHARACTER LOOKS AWESOME IN ODIN ARMOUR SO I WANT TO USE MY ODIN ARMOUR !!! PLEASE SE
    iam surprised they dropped the ball on this though it was quite useless from the start being ilvl 55 gear being able to use it for glamour would have given it a bit of life.. kinda defeats the purpose of wasting time with odin fate now for useless crazy awesome looking armour!!

    I would assume SE made it a single piece because they wanted you to wear the entire thing. Splitting it up would also mean they have to add a new system that says "BEEP! You are not allowed to exit this equipment menu without wearing the full Odin set".

    On the other hand they could have done a REAL vanity system instead of something as terrible as this one. That way this would never have been an issue at all.

    The reasoning for this is solid due to the number of slots the Odin gear takes up you need something to match that.

    Overhauling it because "I can't wear my Odin gear" is a poor excuse.
    How is it ?

    The whole point of Odin, Chocobo and Reindeer armour is for vanity reasons, yet the vanity system doesn't really allow you to use these pieces because of convoluted restrictions.

    So yes the whole system does need to be reworked or the gear needs to be redesigned.

    SE did a very poor job on the Glamour system IMO, PS3 limitations be damned.

    Why not just make Odin's armor require 4 prisms, you choose to Glamour it, and it takes over those 4 slots? I don't see why it would be such a hard thing for them to code.

    It obviously would be terribly hard.

    If it was easy, we would have gotten a duplicate of our equipment menu, but everything equipped there would be visible instead unless left empty. But since you could have a body + head item in body, and head slot empty, it would be really confusing to program that it is an exception and the empty slot does not mean show original head, but should show the body head model. I'm almost positive it is these multiple part armors that made them create this confusing system to begin with. So they could set up that combo pieces only work with combo pieces and whatever else restrictions are out there.

    It is terribly funny Malamasala how many games actually have already addressed this type of thing already and done so fairly easily. It's just an issue of a rushed vanity system that they didn't care about just like most of this game. From the first raid being non FCable(and full of crappy gear to boot) to the destruction of the usefulness of the crafts and the economy because the RMT might use it... Not sure how you guys can defend them. But again, thanks for giving me additional ammunition to use on my friend's demands I give it another chance.
