Sorry but HOW DO YOU THINK WHAT WE HAVE NOW IS BETTER THAN WHATS COMING?

Yeah, I don't see it either. We could have kept the old system, IF and only IF they had given slot point increments at certain levels to allow for more higher-level accessories to be equipped, but since they didn't, well a better system is coming in place.

I don't post a lot and this is completely off topic, but I grinned so huge when I read this.

Thanks blizzard. Hopefully FFXIV 2.0 will be so successful it can undo some of the damage WoW has caused to the genre.

Edit: Hahahahahaha, who am I kidding?

ref dev1244 please dont change the ability to have two earrings.;( I really enjoy mixing and matching earrings and some time just wearing one.

so with your line of thinking we could say the best system would be 10 rings, choker, 4 earnings (you know, for people who got them done 2 times in each ear) 20 bracelets(if your going for that 80's look) would be the best system

how is that

You can almost do that in 1.21 except you you have to wear double the earrings? I'd say we are moving from a better system to a garbage system.

FFXI: Neck, 2 Earrings, 2 Rings

FFXIV Post 1.21: Neck, Wrist, Earring, 2 Rings

It's almost the exact same thing...

As far as comparing FFXIV's accessory system pre and post 1.21... right now you get to wear 3 high end accessories at most. Post 1.21 we get to wear 5 total and each individual piece will have either boosted stats or more relevant stats.

wait wait wait since when did have ffxi bracelets? as i remember 1 necklace 2 earrings 2 rings so all in all 5 too?

got beaten.

5 accessories > 3 accessories, I can only 3 rings and I am at my slot cost limit. This new system makes us able to equip more accessories, with better stats it is paticularly a huge update for DoW/M because they can get crafting attributes which they currently cant.

Also the new DoW/M stats are a nice boost enmity+ on a ring will be awesome for GLA/PLD.
