Poll: Gear Tabs (Are you content with needing multiples of the same items?)

[Mijin]

huh? then unequip your rings from your goldsmith and equip them on weaver whenever you change to weaver and do the other way around when change back to goldsmith? i dont get what the problem is at all...? isnt unequipping and equipping gear a part of the game? or maybe i just dont understand what "gear set" is...

Why would i need 4 rings when i can just requip the same 2 rings whenever i change class...?



we don't NEED multiple of the same item... if you want to have the SAME gear on multiple class sets then you "need" it, but why would you want that if the unused gear set doesnt have any effect on you except saving you 2 seconds requipping gear when changing class... Unless you're really lazy to make 3 mouse clicks... ( > . >

The example I used was to stress the current way the gear tabs system is set up... It's common sense that you don't "need" multiple items to change gear manually, but on the other hand if you want to have two of the same item in two gear tabs you would (currently) need two of the same item. The fact that you can still change gear with out a gear tab is irrelevant. The point of this thread is to explain how the current gear tab system works, and gather feedback on the subject. Along with many others, I personally think this is a bad design considering gear tabs are supposed to be for convenience.

I just re-watched that part of the video and agree with Reinheart's translation on this.

Thank you for also confirming this.

Does this even require feedback?

Well, since the people who make this game spend all of their time doing just that, making it, and never actually playing it (I suspect, or very little at least) bad ideas like this creep up all the time because their often in the dark about what players really want. That's why they actively review the forums and other community sites.

Yoshida probably figures, "well we've existed with out gear tabs up until now, and it was a cool idea, but it turned out to be a lot of work making it so you can put the same items in more than one tab, so I'm not going to bother with it unless people really bitch." - That's just my speculation.
