[Console] Opinion on gear/skill loadouts

Would you like a gear loadout chooser (similar to your potion/emote chooser) that would equip certain gear in your inventory and slot specific skills to your active bars?

Maybe by holding left on the D-Pad you could get a big circle where you could change loadouts out of combat. Assigning them would be a bit messier, but no messier than the dye stations (so it would be manageable).

Some arguments:

Pro: You may be spending more time switching gear and skills now that IC is out as you travel between PvE, AvA, and IC areas. Sometimes you may accidentally slot skills that don't work because you forgot to change weapons. Also, it would be nice for tuning your playstyle for different content (e.g. fire, undead, ww).

Con: This is not needed and constitutes feature bloat. This is available to PC players through addons, but if developers start adding features that are available through addons to the console UI, then where do they stop? Do they add every feature available through every addon? Is this feature really more necessary than any other addon feature?

    Surprised this isn't already in the game since we dont have a mouse to quickly scroll through/drag skills around for bar switching... Would love to be able to save pre set skills and set my bars by selecting those presets and not manually scrolling through each time I want to aoe farm, single target, boss vs trash, or pvp... It's tedious as all hell and part of the reason I don't typically switch

    No for how it's described but if there were templates saved (4 or so) that could be assigned in options to either of the weapon swap options then maybe....but I like how weapon swap works as is.

    Not against have templates but not in place of weapon swap

    I never meant for this to be in place of weapon swap. Must have been poorly worded.
