For all the ppl that are against swapping because of the blinking... The dev's could implement a system that would allow you to choose pieces that you would be allowed to be seen in, as an overlay of sorts. This wouldn't be affected by changing gear. You would only blink if you changed your current apperance style.

With all the new AF, I would be for gear swapping. Example would be with Brd and only being able to use one song while enhancing more effects that can't be stacked. Sure you can take those pieces out or juggle it around. Just trying to point out that it would be better to use a different piece of gear entirely instead of wearing 1 piece that's only effective once maybe twice a fight, and the bonus for such isn't that great.

Ppl already complain if your don't wear AF when you have it and use another piece that's better for the current fight. Alot of ppl are also using mods to view over all effectiveness and complain that your not pulling your weight.

It all boils down to individual playstyles. If you enjoy doing it, then do it. If not, don't. We shouldn't be punished if there is a system that is effective and promotes the use of it.

If it's because there is no inv space if you do it... There is no xtra space now as it is. No matter how much space we get, we will fill it. With every patch we get more and more junk items. Alot of this could be solved with a dedicated NPC to store said items but normally they only store regular items and nothing modified or hq.

What makes a game great are having various choices to customize the tasks at hand. From character creation and general appearance to slaying that almighty dungeon boss or NM w/o a cookie cutter mold.
