    Accessories take up too much space in the Glamour Dresser - suggestion

    Hello!

    Because accessories are locked to jobs/roles, despite usually looking the same across them, they take up a lot of space in the glamour dresser.

    For example: 5x Lakeland Necklace of ???.
    There is a Lakeland Necklace of Healing, Fending, Slaying, Aiming and Casting.
    Or any other necklace, or earrings etc. from level 61 onwards.
    If you want a Lakeland necklace for every job available for glamour, you need to put all 5 of them into the glamour dresser. If you want the color variants as well (Skallic and Atrociraptorskin necklaces) that makes 15. If you want the rings as well you're at 30 slots.

    Anyway, there are many more nice accessory sets, and they take up a lot of space!

    I have a suggestion for this problem:
    Implement a trader NPC that lets you trade in your accessories for statless glamour-only versions that are equippable by all classes (or at least all DoW/DoM).

    I would even take it if you need ALL of a specific accessory type to trade them in (like all 5 Lakeland necklaces for the glamour-only Lakeland necklace).

    Making them level 1 would be nice of course, but even if they're the same level as the original it would be much better than what we have now!

    I don't know if I explained it well enough, but what do you think about this idea?

    I'd be down for this frankly. It's kinda annoying to have to dedicate space to the same item x5 when we already have such limited slots to begin with.

    I barely have accessories in my dresser for this reason. Some of the older accessories are usable by all classes even though they're 'of <Role>' so I'm not sure why they stopped doing that?

    Because some players used the wrong accessories in battle. Like a casting ring when they're tank. I often see it, even now, with low level accessories. They absolutely needed to make them role-locked.

    I suppose that's true, either way I'm all for anything to save some precious dresser space.

    Please no. High Allagan Earrings of Casting (the red ones) go really well with High Allagan Healer set.

    This wasn't even about the old accessories. And even if they locked those to their roles as well - my suggestion for glamour-only accessories would work here as well.

    I hadn't even thought about this as I tend to keep my accessory selection down to just a few of the "jobless" options I use on pretty much every outfit, but it certainly makes a lot of sense.

    This is similar to some of the Garo gear where several job/role locked items have the exact same appearance.

    Your idea sounds like it would help the situation, and is similar to what they have done with replicas. This is also a great argument for a collection/log based system where you collect the appearances rather than items.

    They have said they would continue to make "replica" items that are jobless but that has only been armor pieces afaik. (note: not all replicas are jobless), but that seems to complicate the issue with more items sharing identical appearances and needlessly increasing the number of items in the game. The vast majority of gear is not iconic to particular jobs. If they made replicas of it all, which I doubt they would do, it may nearly double the amount of equip-able items in the game.

    Yes please. The dresser is tiny and any help to save space would be appreciated.
