Thread: Petition for Vanity Slots to be released in 2.1 Patch!

Except you wouldn't need a belt slot or soul gem slot (since these are not visible things). One of the great things about the Rift wardrobe system was that when you placed an item in the slot it was no longer counted in your inventory, that is also something I hope they do with XIV.

Edit: The only point of your post I don't agree with (from the Rift vanity system) is that for ARR I wouldn't want to see mages running around in plate armor, or tanks in mage robes. Thankfully though, Yoshida's already made it quite clear he doesn't want that to happen either, so it won't. Likely if your class can use it, you can wear it. Which I am perfectly fine with.
