So, lot's of gear options, yet no gear swap in active mode..

[Elexia]

The closest I would like to see to gear swapping is bosses in dungeons that require different gear sets, for example one boss that needs an acc set, then when outside the next boss room it requires a high damage set, but never never never add active gear swaps, in FFXI I needed atleast 3 macros for 1 WS and I never want to see that again.

This is pretty much what happens now, which is why compared to XI there's a lot more reason to have the ability to swap your sets around even in battle. You don't need 3 macros for 1 WS in XI for example, but here you definitely need to stack accuracy for 1 WS on some bosses, especially you play LNC/DRG which already has an acc penalty on it's WS, all the while you also want to do a fair bit of damage in the process.

Gear swapping is one of the things that definitely needs to stay in FFXI.

They should probably stop giving us a lot more options then, as I already stated, you can already swap gear in passive mode, so gear swapping is already in this game.
