    QoL improvement: Icons for gear not able to be equipped greyed out in Armoury.

    Please make a colour/greyscale change to the icons of gear which cannot be equipped as your current class in order to vastly improve the ease of changing gear. It's very tedious having to scroll over each piece of gear individually to find the specific ones for your current class.

    Um.... they have a little red x if it's gear you can't equip on any job, and a little blue x if you have a job that can equip it, but you are not currently that job. At least when it's in the armory chest.

    Coming from a PC player....

    I've found by left clicking and holding on an equipment slot will open up the armoury chest with non-usable gear greyed out for that slot. This will continue to happen for each of the other slots in the armoury chest for the duration the chest is open (closing and reopening the chest will turn off this 'function' unless reopening it in the same fashion as explained above).

    It works the same on PS3 / PS4. If you open the armoury chest by selecting your character's gear slot, it greys out anything not currently available, though if you open it from the Armoury Chest option in the main menu, it doesn't.

    It's intuitive enough for people who are accustomed to going from the character sheet to equip items to their character. I only go to the Armoury Chest from the menu when I'm removing stuff to make space or checking whether there's spritbonded gear I should convert and replace. I'm generally doing either of those for any/all jobs, not just my current one, so I prefer not having half the stuff randomly greyed out. That's information I only want when I'm equipping gear, so it works out well that that's the only place it's shown that way.

    Even going from the character sheet, though, there is still some checking of different items, because it only indicates whether you can equip an item, not whether it's suitable to equip. (DoH/DoL items that are equippable by "All Classes" for instance, will show up as available on any class or job that meets their level requirement. It doesn't make them suitable on a combat job.) But at least the greying out cuts down on the number of items to look at.
