Inventory space

What.
How?

I like to keep certain things although I do not need them at the moment. I am a collector (ok, sometimes also crap lol) and I like to be able to help others when they ask for certain items. I know it is my "problem" but I would also like to see more inventory space. Not only for items but also for weapons and armoury. If you have a few active chars, their equipment plus the items you keep for future use suck up a lot of the inventory space. This Game is meant to be played for a longer time and FF once had a very nice inventory tradition: to give you ENDLESS space so you do not need to worry about collecting.

So + 1 for more space, especially having future expansions in mind. The more classes they add, the worse the space problem will become.

8 characters per server

Also remember you can toss some stuff into the Armoire. Right now I think it can only hold AF gear and 1.0 event gear, but hopefully that will be expanded soon to include the 2.0 event gear.

If you can only mail items to other characters on the account! You could try and make a FC on a character and use that FC as mule/transfer diddy, but then again you'll have to find away to get the stuff from that FC and your alts in it to your main... lol

@OP: there is a talk back in 1.0 8an very very old thread) about hire addictional retainer via montly payment but have not been confirm neither update anymore info about that.

Also there is an info from Yoshi (back in 1.0 ofc) there ll be place to store primals weapon in player housing....have not hear any more info about that either.

Long reply make short, lets wait for the housing & private housing before asking for more inventory slots, they might have something in their mind.

The best solution I have to counter this problem atm are:

1. only keep green item that have unique look that you want

2. optimize your material. That mean do not keep raw material, only keep the craft product like Ingot and etc and for craft class like ALC and CUL and mostly CUL, only gather what you need and dont keep any of those material in inventory because with 5-6 items/recipe they take a lot of space, you can always gather material when you need so dont keep them

3. this option only avaiable for some ppl and if possible I do recommend crafter to make their owm FC and use the FC warehouse as an alt WH
or ask your leader to give you FC WH access

so far I dont have the inventory space issue even w/o FC WH so I dont think it is the issue atm

I understand, I really do. I have two crafts at 50, another above 30, and all of my gathering classes are > 15. I have an entire retainer who has seven pages full of cooking ingredients. But that's my choice, and my problem - there's no reason they should start throwing more storage at me simply because I don't want to get rid of my cul mats.

Inventory management has always been a part of RPGs. Learn to do it, instead of asking the game to do it for you.

it goes something like this and is really nice, if you have more than 1 stack you have to put it somewhere else tho xO so it still needs more than enough mnagement.
In Ff there arent even sort/filter options. It's really tiring to switch between bags and sort stuff.
I mean I know where i have my stuff. It's on 2 Characters and 4 retainers + FC bank. and that is really really tiring...
"oh the leather stuff is on the other character, so because i need 1 leather XY i need to switch character" or something ._.

You just join the same FC with all your chars and use the chest. It´s not hard.

750 total inventory slots, and people still complain.....175 from 2 retainers, 100 inventory, and 300 armory chest...

Heh. I'm leveling all DoH/DoL and yeah sometimes it gets crowded, but just sell stuff you've overleveled and hope you'll pay as much as you sold it for that ONE time you're gonna need a piece of it next. I think the most intensive use of space comes from culinarian and fisher. But it's not like this stuff is hard to get anyway, at least for me it isn't. Just keep what's important, throw the rest away :)
