Expand the equipment page where we currently have our tools and fishing rod into a full lifeskill gear page. Copy the layout of the combat gear and only allow lifeskill gear like Manos in those slots. The 6 tools could go to the bottom row, fishing gear where the weapon slots are on the combat page. Lifeskill clothing is just one slot, lifeskill costumes are at most two slots, so the page would still be less cluttered than the combat gear. Set a toggle for which costume you want to be shown, combat of lifeskill.
Never again switch gear. At most you would have to swap relics clothing and costume if you do more than one lifeskill on one character. Never again go into battle forgetting that you are still in lifeskill gear. Never again start lifeskilling forgetting you are still in combat gear. Never again be vulnerable while lifeskilling.
