Crafting and gathering without changing Jobs

[Bishop81]

This is an awful lot to ask programming-wise, to be honest. Firstly, your gear sets aren't stored server-side, they're stored locally on your PC so the game would have to determine which of your gear sets is your gatherer/crafter and then switch to them, activate the skills you want it to activate and start up the gathering/crafting interface. Next, you want it to remember all of the specifics of your state before it made the switch? We don't even keep our buffs when switching between classes normally as it stands, you're asking it (once again) to know which gear set you were on, remember all of the stats you had plus all of the effects you were under and which pet you have out?

I'm not expecting it anytime this expansion to be frank.

Next expansion though ... something they should consider.
