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

[Mikita]

I understand the technical limitation of this. My understanding right now is that the item is removed from your inventory when you put it in a gearset. if it remained in your inventory I can see this being easier to fix. The easiest thing to do i think is to segregate equipable items into a unique tab. much like crystals are currently.

but overall, no. I do not think it is a good idea to require multiple pieces of the same gear, especially since it may not be possible to obtain multiple pieces. (IE, I use Lominsan Officer's overcoat on two jobs, and the bracelet on 3)

Yoshi P explained it as part of his statement that our inventory will be reduced from 200 to 100.

To offset this, when you place equipment into a gear set it is taken out of your main inventory and not counted towards your 100 item limit.

But by doing it this way, it means that the actual item is physically moved into that gear set... not just being assigned for use when selecting that gear set.

They said they're doing this for ease of understanding, but to me it seems to be doing the opposite.

I frequently use the same equipment across multiple jobs, so this is going to make things pretty frustrating if left as is.

It would make more sense to me if they just added more inventory space instead of getting rid of it, and instead let you drag and drop gear items out of your inventory to your gear tabs as many times as you like. But I'm assuming they have some reason for making inventory smaller, probably space issues or something.
