First off, I enjoy this game but I sadly see it dying, so yes Im on the forums too much while I work nights.
Anyways, armor stands have been a topic for awhile, but what if they made them, “classes.”
You make your armor stand, you put gear on it and weapons and set stat points with the weapons being specc’d a certain way for each armor stand. Include toolbelt and bags for gatherer sets.
You can just enter your house, press a button for class set ups or walk up to a dummy stand or upgraded dummy stand that is an armor stand, switch to whatever set or class you want and edit everything from gear to wear, Weapon Mastery, attributes and Equipped weapons. Costs respectively what it would cost to respecc, just does it automatically and says, “costs 200 gold and 100 azoth, confirm?”
During a war, OPR, invasions or even expeditions before joining you can open your Character Page, click on, “Armor Stands,” and a class set up before entering. above Accept or Decline it says, “select equipment,”
When you are returned, you have the gear on you were wearing before.
“Oh, I forgot to grab my focus gear so I can’t heal right now, lemme spend 400 azoth to go to town and rummage through my cluttered storage and hover each piece to make sure it’s the right one; spend 200 gold to Respec stats and my VG is for PvP, lemme spend azoth respeccing that too.”
WHY? Just why.
Eventually most of the population will have multiple class set ups as the game gets older. QoL is inevitable.
Addition: Add a wardrobe for accumulation and crafting gear. Add the gear to the wardrobe and it is removed from your storage and put in the wardrobe. The accumulation perks extend to all stations in the town where the wardrobe is placed.
Open the wardrobe and see all refining accumulation slots, crafting slots and Earrings.
