Allowing Gear Change in Active Mode

[Jynx]

While i don't want gear swaps back, if people notice it or not, gear swaps was the sole reason FFXI content lasted so long.

Untrue, the difficulty of obtaining gear was another factor. Needing to have multiple gear sets compounded the issue it's true but it wasn't the underlying reason why the content was played for years before becoming obsolete.

Yes it was, cause if you could not have x piece of gear for every situation people would just get the new best thing and leave it at that. Think about it once a better DD body came out better than kirins body was hardly an reason to do him, but since gear swapping was there ppl still did it cause it was a good macro part for brd.

Edit: it's also the reason why thf's used Leaping boots for SA/TA macro's for years.
