Update the Gender Vendor

First of all, the title is just because of how it sounded. So, I had noticed today that despite many if not all of the previous 'Gender Locked' outfits have made it to the Calamity Salvager's gender-specific gear thing. However, it doesn't have any of the newer outfits that have a male and female parallel.

Specifically, the Loyal Housemaid and Loyal Butler outfits. Given the cost of these outfits, I would think that they too would make their way onto that list. Perhaps it was just something skimmed over?

This one seems intentional specifically due to the costs.

I'd love to see more items added, like the Tidus and Yuna sets, I have the male, but playing female now and feel like a swap should be possible.

Adding in my opinion any mogstation/promotional outfits should be able to be salvaged as well. Back during times of less inventory, I rather stupidly accidentally tossed my amazon promo maid set, and after filing tickets was told it's not recoverable since it happened months ago. This is rather unacceptable for items we paid for, there has to be some record of it, and I should be able to recover this from the salvager.

Yeah... intentionally greedy.

This is about how the salvager NPC work. You need an achievement entry for it.
As an example, the Salvager NPC only sell the Garo gears if the set for it got completed for the achievement. He will not sell a single Garo gear from uncompleted sets.

As much as I'm sure it probably is true, I hold hope that maybe it isn't. :c

This doesn't excuse the fact. It is very possible to add a trigger so that the calamity salvager recognizes a purchase. It can either be as an invisible achievement on the backend, or if that isn't possible make it a visible achievement in its own category for 0 achievement points.

The real reason is that tweaking the achievement system to accommodate purchases is a low priority.

Not sure why people keep saying this because it's not true. The salvager will re-sell you plenty of gear that has zero achievement associated with it. Even gear that isn't useful, like the Sylvan belt from some random story quest. The salvager's purpose is to give you a way to reclaim unique gear that you may have lost. He will even sell you all of the Lucis crafting and gathering tools even if you only completed one of them (you only earn the achievement one time). Most of that gear is associated with achievements but a lot of it isn't.

Most likely the game is reading your journal, as well as the achievement log, which is how both this and the meteor ring can be retrieved. Mogstation items interact with neither, in fact they don't interact with anything except the delivery moogle. My above post should tell you my opinion on that though.

Having the gendered items available at the salvager also has the effect of letting people try on those items in-game.

Exactly. I don't see how it could be regarded as a bad thing, it helps with advertising the outfits.
