1. Set a fixed cost to upgrade gear instead of the lottery style cost. I would rather knowingly pay a huge fee in ore, than pay the variable cost. 2. Discard the "unequip gear" costs. Paying a fee to change clothes is stupid. 3. Make the gear comparison easier to see between what is equipped and a possible replacement. 4. Have a "quick set" button to quickly equip the best gear available with one button. But still allow a player to swap out individual gear items if they choose. 5. Reduce the size of the visible portion of the gear inventory in favor of more gear stats above.
