suggestion: move item to retainer option

Hi! So, I have a multiple retainers and I tend to lose track of what I have stored in each – generally its old gear, materials for crafting, housing items/crafted items for sale. What I propose is a tweak to the retainer systems.

For example:

I select Retainer 1 and want to move something from Retainer 1 to Retainer 4, but instead of taking it from their inventory and adding it to mine, only to add it to 4’s afterwards. It’s time consuming and tedious, especially if you have a number of retainers.

Since we have a “search for item” option already, which scans the player and the retainer inventories, could we maybe have something similar like “move [item] to retainer” option too? This option would allow a player to move an item or items from one retainer with a click of a button by removing the middle man all together. Naturally this shouldn't be a function that can be allowed just anywhere in the game. To move things from retainer to retainer would require a summoning bell.

I really like this idea. I would use that daily. Really hard trying to "clean up" my retainers when it is so hard to do it in the first place.

Might I also suggest these?

-Moving an item directly from one retainer to another

-The ability to discard an item that your retainer currently holds without first moving the item to your own inventory

-Allowing the player to go back to the list of retainers after they have finished with one retainer, rather than being booted out of the entire menu

If this option was available and the stacking value was increased to a larger figure, it has the potential of reducing the number of complaints about lacking inventory space. So in my eyes its a win win - but I'm not a Dev so :p

bump because i think this is something that would really help

I sort of think this is a poor patch to the current clunkyness of the retainer interface. All limits of it we currently have seem to be based on fundamental design where only one retainer's functions can be accessed at one time. Whatever hardwired addition the search function is, I'm not sure how beneficial it would be to add more hardwired quick solutions.

Don't get me wrong, I'd really like to see the retainer inventory system improved. But I'd rather see it build on new base, where accessing each retainer and thus their inventory is just tab away and thus also switching items between them would be simple enough (drag the item to other retainer tab, for one possible way). Adding a clunky solution to clunky base would just perpetuate the problem.
