Considering you can do Ifrit naked, I'd say the bolded statement is not true at all.

because when ifrit (hard) is really all you've done, that's the summation of endgame... right? and what all else in the game should be judged by?

Don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say anything about anything else. I made one statement. A factual one. So stuff it.

You're trying to refute the point that gear is important, citing a single fight that can be done without. Your argument doesn't support gear not being important, it just says that it isn't necessary for one fight.

Saying Ifrit (Hard) can be done naked does not mean the original person you quoted is false when they say that gear is important.

maybe you should do garuda naked? or document your journey acquiring relic every step of the way... naked? or play around with van darnus in rivenroad (hard) naked? seriously have fun with that.

so what is my point? precisely what alerith said.

If I had said you could do the entire game naked, you'd have a point. I didn't, so you don't.

For what it's worth though, I acknowledge the point you are both making.

I love being able to switch jobs on one character two thing though. 1. Inventory with that many jobs will add up over time making forums wanting more inventory space for the game life span and making mules just like ffxi but will cost 3$ just to have them etc. 2. Again equipment people will want the same gear since they can be whatever job making it a headache to some people getting that gear when a whm will lot on a pld gear for example.

But I say as a community when you go to raid/instance whatever you make a list say whoever started the party or link shell event on what that player wants as a drop for one particular job they ask for! Though a drop can be something that no one lot for and that can be free lot. For inventory space that a battle will always be in play but I still like being able to be any job....

Your argument about storage is kind of outdated considering it's been stated that if you have a Legacy or the $14.99 account option in 2.0, you can have as many as 8 characters per server with a total of 40 characters across all servers. That and we will have Gear Sets (formerly called Mannequins) for each class/job that will pull the equipment out of our main inventory once set.

As far as acquiring gear goes, in a PUG/content finder group it's probably going to be a free for all as far as loot goes since anyone can technically equip anything. In linkshells/free companies that will have more structure, people will probably declare a "main" class and will only roll on that gear unless something drops that nobody on a main needs, then it becomes a free lot. It just depends on the group of people you play with.
