Required Rank vs Optimal Rank

[AdvancedWind]

Wow, gifthorse/vesperia/giftforce is running out of things to complain about.

Except this one is probably one of his most valid complains.

Personally, I prefer the optimal rank system, that just needs a few tweaks (such as properly showing the reduction of stats when using non-optimal items) and using class / rank requirements on VERY specific / VERY rare gear such as Job gear, instead of pretty much every rare/ex item.
