Thanks for the mansplain. When I click my little man, to bring up my character sheet. I have outfit let's say #7 selected as the outfit that it looks like I'm wearing. I then have the stat gear that has all the armoring in it, you know your currently equipped gear. (That's what shows when you first pull up your charcater sheet.) When this window first opens if my gear that has the actual numbers to it says active instead of apply, this is when the problem hits. If I click to a different outfit, let's say #8 and select that as active then go and look at my currently equipped gear it shows as apply again. Then it fixes it. This is exremely annoying in a WZ. I'm rather busy and all this extra clicking usually means death, but then again so does running around in empty gear.
Next time try not to be so condescending.
