why cant I put AF 1.5, new season event item and pre-order item into Aimorie ?

Why ? I mean the Aimorie is to store the AF, season event items & pre-order item right ? but why cant I do that with the 2.0 items ?

Because it's terrible in its current state.

Because those items are meant to go into an armoire, not an aimorie.

It would be nice to get a reply to this.. we don't even know if it's a bug or intended.

It's intended

The colored pumpkin heads will go into storage.
The Ghost costumes will not.

The cheap versions of the swim suits will go into storage.
The expensive versions will not.

AF gear will go into storage
AF+1 gear will not.

color pumikin head is 1.0 items, mean 1.0 events
the cheap version if swimsuit is also from 1.0
AF is also 1.0

new AF is AF 1.5 (not +1), and it is from 2.0

I ll repeat again, only 1.0 items you can put into Armoire (correct name) but not the newly 2.0 with same type.

and while you say it work as intended, I d like the source link or quote of GM reply

edit: some where back in 1.0 Yoshi say the Armoire is to put those event, pre-order and AF item because they take up player inventory & retainer slots. So in theory, those new items of same type in 2.0 should be able to put into Armoire too but I cant, and that confuse me

If it follows FFXI at all with the event storage etc. then new event items won't be storable until the update after their release. That means these items should be storable after 2.1 and any event/blue items released in 2.1 will have to wait until 2.2. Not sure why this is the case.

It's also worth noting that while you can put the 1.0 pre-order Onion Helmet into the Armoire, you can't do the same for the 2.0 pre-order Helm of Light, which lends credence to the 1.0-only angle.

I propose all Grand Company gear should be storable in the Armoire.

Because if you have tons of gear from one Company and then you switch to another, you can use any of it so you need to store it somewhere.

Any non-convertible gear should also be allowed to be stored in the Armoire.

I disagree, that's what retainers are for. The armoire was only implemented as a means for some relief to the ever increasing holiday and pre-order gear that was accumulating, not as a supplement to normal storage.

The armoire is for all the items that you can only get once and no more again. So you don't need to throw them away forever to make space in your retainers.
AF1.5 and GC gear can be farmed again and therefore would never go into the armoire.

I hope they make a new category in the armoire for dated gear (gear from old 1.0 recipes that can no more crafted and traded in ARR). I have still a nice chainmail that I can also wear with a mage class ^^

Add crusaders uniform (the black one gotten by vouchers, which afaik you get once as veteran rewards) to that unstorable list.

It is the same as in FFXI.

We were never able to store new items on storage NPCs. However after a few months they would make it possible (after a patch) to store the newer items.

I expect the same here. Right now you can not store the new items in your Armoire, however I expect this to change with 2.1 or 2.2.

This really makes no sense at all.

Because it is something between AF1 and (soon coming) AF2. What people call ingame AF2 is not AF2.

As example the Monk AF2:

Same reason they call it AF2, relic armor, and any number of other names. They have no idea what to call it so they stuck a .5 on the end (though I like AF2 myself, since it's pretty much the 2nd version of your AF, not the 1.5th)

I personally consider the ilvl 90 gear to be AF1 now. The gear you get during the job questline is really just job gear, not AF. With that in mind, the new AF2 gear designation in the last producer's letter makes sense.

Oh yeah, it actually does say AF2 on there doesn't it? I never even thought to look that closely at it.

In recent updates FFXI has actually been pretty good at modifying storable options when they add a new event swimwear or with the 2 new classes they added storable options via the AF Mog Slip for the Runefencer and Geomancer's AF equipment and weapons the update those items went live. I can't imagine them being a step behind in that regard in ARR.
