Gear Swaps?

[Elexia]

Situational =/= every other ability.

Exactly, situational, you didn't need to gear swap for every ability because there's always an innate cap. This is why people are against it because of misinformation.

The only time you'd ever gear swap for "every ability" is if you're trying to reduce the timer heavily, otherwise no need for it.

My point still stands. It's completely useless for this game considering you can hit most caps with one set of gear. If you really want that extra invigorate/ballad of magi/presence of mind/fist of wind/whatever, wear the damn AF. Or equip yourself before a fight. Having it mid battle is ridiculous.

I absolutely DO NOT want to see gearswap in this game. It is a bunch of crap. This is not FFXI.

You only heard horror stories from lazy people lol. Btw, if SE adds a lot of situational gear to XIV, there's going to eventually be a need for it, which they also stated they had no current plans to introduce it, but they aren't against the idea if it's needed.

Funny thing is, the current setup in XIV actually screams for Gear Swapping in certain situations because you can't stack all preferred stats with just 1 set of armor, for example for nuking you want less resistance as well as more damage, it's usually either/or, not both unless you're insanely lucky on melds.

Really? lol gear swaping in XI was horrible. If you were in Dynamis and playing your (mele) job right your character would disappear or blink out for 2-3 mins while doing JA/WS. partly from macro and partly from the lag...
Not to mention the 2-3 sets of gear you would need to carry with you.

I hope its implemented , but hopefully no blinking etc, it seems they are making it go this way, we have a wide array of different gear sets available and to maximise ones potential we need gear swaps.. all in all , if they add it I wont bicker and if they don't I wont bicker

either way I am happy :P

Keep gear swaps away, please :P

It's just dumb. In real life, how can you change your clothes and stuff while fighting? lol
