So uh, how's the storage situation progressing? ^^;

[FaeQueenCory]

I'm sort of gear illiterate and don't get heavily into it, so storage hasn't been a problem for me, but let me ask a question. If it's a problem that you can't store augmented gear on Porter Moogle slips and you never could... would it be acceptable if you expanded the range of non-augmented gear that could be stored, so that you could just put the augmented stuff in your normal inventory?

Like I said, I don't really understand the storage woes deeply, but it's something I was wondering.

That would be the same as having augment-only storage slips.
If you've ever +2'd a relic piece, you'll find that you have to do the magian trial before you can store it on a slip.
And since it's only a few of those that are really useful, it doesn't bother anyone much to have one or two floating around in your locker of whatnot.

But the problem is now that there's a huge influx of gear that HAS to be kept in your inventories.

If you wanted to +2 all your relic gear, and then found yourself out of space, you could alleviate that by taking the magian trials and be then able to store it all on one slip.

And having a slip for only-augmented or only-unagmented bayld gear is exactly the same scenario:
too much of it, do the augments and buy a slip.
or
too much of it, don't augment the ones you don't use much and buy a slip.

Obviously in the case of bayld the augment one would be the implemented slip, and personally the prefered to the unaugmented (bayld rains from the heavens, why not get that swaky +120MP??).

But the problem isn't with the bayld gear.

It's with the skirmish2 and delve gear.

Theoretically... it could be possible to tag all stages of delve augment paths with a various hexcode value (255 should be enough "slots" per gear) and that could be slip-ified with ease.

But the skirmish2 gear would be impossible.
Because.... the augments are random....

Probably the worst idea they had.
Had it worked like the Bayld gear... no one would have minded.
Sure, there would have been a bit of complaining that any augments are bluh.... but w/e.
But they decided to use the same method for skirmish weapons... which worked for them... because it's unusual for weapons to get on storage slips.
So random augments wouldn't (and didn't) come with a wave of complaints about storage clog.
But with the gear.........
They made the skirmish2 gear unstorable and that's one of the reasons for this large pressure on ppl's storage atm.
(that and the needless to mention bajillion of OTHER new gear that suddenly showed up.)

The least they could do is to make non augmentable gear, such as delve boss drops storable. Things like melee and mage earring sets etc also. If we can't store all of it, at least let us store SOME of it.

This means that there will be one more moogle inside of your houses, but we’ve received some feedback asking to make it possible to hide the display of these moogles from those of you who really enjoy organizing the furniture is your homes, so we are examining whether or not we can do this.

Anyone who wants to hide a moogle should have there account deleted! Its about time our moogles had a friend in there!

[Glamdring]

sorry dude, my moogle has apparently not even SEEN a female of the species face to face in years, decades if you go by Vana'diel time. If you knew how many times I've had to patch my Mog House walls, not to mention the magazine subscriptions and the stuff I've found in the VCR and on my computer in there... I don't dare even open my Mog to outsiders, I'm afraid of what he might do the the members of the fairer sex that might drop by

Actually, that'd be an adorable way to add a Moogle. Romance.

Apparently you never completed A moogle kupo d'etat.

Storyline Spoiler

You get to see your Moogles girl friend. As well as him patching up your mog house, and traveling around the world. Sounds more like you just neglect your Moogle

Alternatively, we could discover that the Dutch Moogle Wife that our moogle recently bought just so happens to double as a Dutch Porter Moogle because of an unexplained zippered pocket in the back.

Greetings,

In addition to the plans described in my previous post, we will be making it possible to send items directly from your Mog House in the fall version update. When selecting “Delivery Box” from your Mog House menu, you’ll be able to select “Send” or “Receive.” We plan on adding this feature to the Test Server next week. We'll update you on the status of the other storage plans once we hear more information!

Thanks...for basically telling us and giving us nothing really.

Are we that much hurting developer resources that by now we still cannot solve the stoage issue (of going over the 80 slot cap...which from what I can remember is the cause of the PS2 limitations).

If that is truly the case, why not just give us another 80 slot bag - even if we can't access this bag in the field, it would be better than what we have NOW.

This is now 2013 and 2014 isn't that far away and we're still having to complain about lack of storage and it doesn't help that you guys just give us MORE armors/weapons that cannot be mule or stored. For the sanity of your paying customer, please do something. Anything would be better than either having to spend 15min muling or having to cap all my dbox slots.

FIX THIS! This is not a request anymore, this is a DEMAND from your paying customer.

Did you read my idea? I think allowing us to transfer some of our 99s and the gear for those jobs to a new paid character would solve the problem.

It would have to be like world transfer feature.

Think about it like this. I never play bard but I leveled it to 99 so I could play VW. If I transfered my gear and this job to a new paid account.

I could have a new inventory.
Could have full merits open to raise all merits on bard.
Power to do things right away at level 99.
