Cannot switch to DOH classes

[Golophei]

This is a new bug for me.

I logged into the game. Tried switching to my ALC class from MRD inside Market ward/jeweler. Got an error message saying "Unable to equip. Not enough action slot available" which prohibited me from switching.

I then tried to switch to all other DoH and DoL classes and still getting the very same error message. However, I have no problem at all to switch to any other DoM/W classes or any other weapons.

Later, I've tried unequipped all my armors and accessories. Still won't allow me to switch to any DoH or DoL classes. I also tried logging out from game into the character selection page and then logged right back in. Did not help either.

Right now, I have exited FFXIV completely and hoping it will finally solving this problem. I will update the status.

Update

Exit FFXIV does not help. Finally a LS friend instructed me to uneqipped a ability from action slot and did the trick. This is really not good.

You need to have at least 1 action slot (2 if archer) open for you change into certain classes. You probably filled up your action bars entirely and when trying to switch to a DoH class, there was no room for "Stone Throw" to be auto equipped. Should be fixed when 1.19 comes and action bars are saved based on classes.

What troubled me was because my action slot "COST" number was only 61/63 and therefore I did not even think about the issue of available physical slot. SE need to correct this issue.

Step 2 = I then tried to switch to all other DoH and DoL classes and still getting the very same error message. However, I have no problem at all to switch to any other DoM/W classes or any other weapons. I've check my slot cost, it is only 61/63.

Step 3 = A friend told me to unequiped one ability which finally allow me to switch to DoH and DoL class.

Step 4 = If I need to free up an action slot to do so, then why I have no problems at all when switching only to other DoM or DoW classes?

Please fix this.
