Requirements
All equipment has certain minimum requirements a player character must reach before it can use that item.
Both weapons and armor have job and job level requirements. Only players with the appropriate job and job level will be able to use those items.
Many armor items also have gender (Male or Female) requirements. A player character can only use items that are made for their gender or items that are marked Unisex, which can be used by either gender.
