3rd Retainer coming when?

If I read the last live letter correctly, a 3rd retainer was slate to be coming after 2.1. I am just curious as to when this might be. I don't know about you.. but I really could use that space about now.

A third retainer would be nice I agree.

I hear you it sucks that I can only selling two markets I'd love to be able to selling all three and the storage space would definitely be nice as well

Ugh a 3rd one? I'd rather get rid of the second and enlarge the inventory of the only one remaining. Going through 2 retainers to find the ingridients for crafting is already annoying, one more will make it even more puzzled. I'd love to have a bigger inventory as well but why the separation through a boat load of retainers? It is all my stuff in the end. I don't need a retainer at all and prefer to have everything with me at any time to make instant use of my crafters and collectors. Right now, whenever I want to craft an item or use my fisher, I have to visit my retainers first, go through the mess that's called inventory and put the stuff back after I am done. Waste of time imo.

Wait, if I put items on my retainer to sell, only one of the three cities can see it? I thought they changed that with 2.0...

Everyone can see it, you just pay a fee/tax when you buy something not in the city of the retainer. I'f I'm sitting in Limsa and buy from a retainer in Ul'dah I'll pay a small fee for doing so. If I bought it from a Limsa retainer I just pay the price of the item.

so that is how it works I see.

So.. now that 2.15 is here.. and we now know this "shortly coming" retainer is yet to make it.. Is it possible at all to get any form of response on this? As a full crafter I have to keep things in my inventory while my retainers are packed to the brim. If I run out of my single stack supplies.. I now have a routine of farm for a day.. craft the mats.. replenish the mats (1 stack sadly) and have no room to really stock anything so I dont need to repeat this process ever 2-3 days.

Very much this. Having one retainer with more storage would be optimal and maybe changing what gear can go into the armoire would go a long way to fixing the space issues

It would be nice to have one retainer for each city-state.

I don't know...maybe I just like creating NPCs that I can boss around. :)
