Suggestion: "Pack" Equipment Slot

[hythrain]

My suggestion is to add a new equipment slot called Pack. Not only would this slot be for glam purposes (allowing characters to carry backpacks, satchels and other types of bags that would fit well with the idea of players being adventurers), it would also be capable of providing inventory slots for specific types of items that would be dependent on the pack. Packs would have no limitation based on job for functional purposes, but for glamour purposes they don't always appear on certain jobs. More specifically, if the job's weapon or tool while sheathed interferes massively with the bag (some glamours and even disabling sheathed weapons being shown will still work). Here are some examples of how this would work:

Miner's Satchel: A satchel miner's use for holding ore they collect. Provide 4 additional slots that can only be used on Stone, Bone, and Reagents that can be gathered while Mining. Not always viewable on the following jobs: PLD, MNK, NIN, SAM, MCH, DNC, SMN, RDM, BLU, WHM, SCH, AST.

Traveling Chef's Backpack: A backpack often used by chefs while on the road. Provides 8 additional slows that can only be used by Ingredients and Reagents used in Cooking. Not always viewable on the following jobs: PLD, WAR, DRK, GNB, DRG, RPR, BRD, MCH, BLM, SMN.


Finally, to make these items scalable with time to ensure the developers can give more, they would start off only providing a couple of extra slots but one day could provide as much as each tab of our current inventory does.
