    This is likely what the biggest block to "going back and recreating a better system" is. They don't and wont have increased resources, their parent company has shown very often they have a set amount they want to invest in the FFXIV devs, so since they are limited they will need to divert all resources capable to the project, and there's no point in implementing anything new till its finished since all items will have to be compliant and compatible with the new system.



    I agree the only true fix is a rework from the ground up, but I don't see the company doing that as they would lose so many subscribers until it was finished and even then it's harder to win people back than to just keep them hooked with small fixes.
    I mean.... They could just patch fix this one up too. All they would need would be to clean item instancing up and they could have an easier solution to this problem by just creating instances with default data (dye, etc.) for the plates. I suspect the code is actually already there tbh since they probably already create new instances for the plates. I suspect the glamour dresser works the way it does so it isn't destructive of your gear which a log system might very well be.
