    Had suggested a glamour system that was also a safety net, think I called it crystal library.

    The short: gear can be compressed into materia (token) (naming convention: 'title of area' + 'materia'), in the library allows you to convert materia into other gear (like 3 - 5 to a gear or your choice), if you collect 1.5 materia * total gear in the zone you unlock all the glamours and converting future materia into gear is cheaper too. So you can get a glamour log, and for a little extra you can pull specific items (pull as in the literal item, that has stats). Materia can also be used for other things like quests, relics, and crafting.


    So play the job you want, failing to get the item you want is fine, get the glamour / gear you want in the end. Also encourages collectors to run dungeons a few times lol. Due to the materia concept inventory management is easier (can compress items in content), and additionally provided a data friendly way to add glamours (a dungeon of 30 items becomes 1 variable).
