Reduce the Glamour Plates but make them dependent on Job/Class or Gear Set

Sorry for my bad english.

From my understanding the main problem with not having more Glamour Plates is that they load with you charakter and having more could be to much for the servers. Thats why i propose the following change:

Reduce the Glamour Plates to 2 or 3, but make them per Job/Class or Gear Set.

With this we can now Glamour every Job/Class differently and have extra Glamour Plates for fun and the loading problem with the Servers would be reduced since it loads only 2 or 3 Glamour Plates instead of 20.

But even if my understanind for the main problem is wrong, this change would be better then the 20 universal Glamour Plates we have at the moment since this change would be future-proof for every new Job we will get.

Ehhh...

If we're worried about server load, then we could just do what WoW does and save sets locally. Then theoretically we could have infinite plates!

Actually, while we're talking about WoW, did you know that their 'dresser' is infinite and encompasses all gear in the game? They don't even need to manually save gear, it automatically saves a "copy" of the gear to their 'dresser' when the gear is soulbound!

That would be so nice to have in FFXIV.

So less plates. Hard no.

Did you not read what i wrote? It will be more Plates in the end and not less.

This greatly limits the number of glamours you can have for a single class. If anything, it's going to make the system even more restrictive than it already is.
