Gender change and Mog Station items

[Iscah]

Thanks God that we at least can swap Seasonal gear on Calamity Salvager. I'm not sure if you can do it with "replica"s bought from Mog, though. Probably can as well? They should work the same.

It works - because it's not 'replica' gear, it's just the same actual item that was available from the original quest.

As far as I've seen, only housing gets the altered replica versions... for no good reason as far as I can tell.

Good then.

I do understand why housing items get replicas. Back in 2.0 and partly 3.0 you could sell them on Maket Board, so they just prevented "legal RMT" by making replicas instead of releasing original items.

The reason is probably that seasonal housing items used to be sellable on the marketboard and since they didnt want a way to introduce RMT through official chanels all mogstation-items are untradeable. The gear already was, so it could stay as the original item but the furniture wasnt, so they added the "replica" to make it a different item. They wouldnt really need to do that with newer furniture since now all of it is marketboard prohibited, but maybe they're just sticking with a theme now?
