You could have easily tossed the Mirror and just gotten another after you finally gotten the globe. you were the one who clogged your inventory with an unused upgrade token.



They are more stamp cards that you trade in. Them being items that you can toss when is much better in the long run than adding new trial currencies every patch.

The new primal-tokens are working excatly like the beast-tribe-tokens that are getting moved to currency - are you against that aswell?

The mirror is not a guranteed drop. And you have to roll on it. Sure, I would have loved to farm for one again after I finished my farm for the globe...

Why is it better that you can toss those items? What do you gain from that? If they're moved to currency I gain inventory space and you lose nothing, so I cant understand why you're against that?

The reason I'm asking for the totems to become currency is because lets see I lit went 97/100 until i got the bird. lol so it was eating my inventory for the longest time ever. I've had terrible luck on the birds before and i used to have all of them eating half of my space. I have the birds now, but still i feel like they should have added it way back when.

p.s. sorry for being negative nancy!

That wouldn't make any sense though. It'd basically just be a new menu tab to see what we can already see in our inventory. While the devs can make some bad design decisions, they aren't inherently stupid about it.

Just upgrade your gear or don't buy them with tomes if you don't want to use them.

Now they just need to make other token items into key items to use all of that unused key items inventory space.

The thing is I stack them because if I wanna use a piece that is dyable I need to buy it and upgrade it, then dispose of it because inventories are sh*t. So if I change my glam later then wanna come back to that piece, rince and repeat.

Basically, every item that we have to stack up completely should be moved to the currency tab.

They'll change the mirage system in 4.1 i read (i forgot how cause im all sleepy and its 6am but still lol)

The reason for them being a currency and going in the currency tab is that they are currency. If you give something to a vendor NPC in exchange for something else and it doesn't have other type of use, that's a currency. The reason it wouldn't have to bloat the currency tab is because if SE programmed it correctly (which they won't or can't do, of course), currency tabs and counters would be dynamically generated only if you have the currency. So if you don't have Horde Totems or mirrors or unidentified arbitrary item #16, it wouldn't have to show "0", instead it'd just not be there.

OR SE, we could just just stop making new currencies and items for every little thing/primal/raid/whatever and stop bloating everyone's inventory.

With jobs number increasing each expansion, it's unthinkable to stop getting tokens for primals and raids: getting gear would become a real pain in the a**, just like it was back in ARR when running a primal 40 times and still not your weapon.

I agree and if it can't go in there it should be in key items
