Required rank on all gear

[User201109011315]

I'd vote for Class / Job Specific Equipment, and Rank Restricted Equipment as well.

It certainly would allow for something to work towards and strive for, as well as add some class / job distinctness (instead of having Monk, Warrior, Thief all wear the same armor, or, say, Bard, White Mage and Black Mage all wear the same armor - No Thanks).

I'm fine with having some General (Non-Class Specific Gear), for those that want some versatility (saving inventory space, etc.), but there's something special about seeing a classic Final Fantasy Black Mage, or a Dragoon, or a Dancer, etc.

Thanks.

Then they should just implement gear for typical FF classes which bear bonuses to specific kinds of magic/attacks or something but without the "required class" clause added in there.

That way there is a strong suggestion to wear those types of gear while performing a certain role, but without flat-out imposing a restriction on players.
