Put the currency for bicolor gemstones in the actual currency tab

Where we see the bicolor stones currently

Where I believe we SHOULD be seeing them

Why do they have to be kept in their own entirely separate window? The moment you have all the areas capped for fates, you shouldn't have to open that again just to see ONE currency type.

Oh there's a currency list there? I thought I had to go to a bicolor stone salesman to see it.

Yeah, it's kind of in an awkward location, some friends didn't realize it was there either.

Yes, please. Common sense when adding new currency like this would be very much appreciated in the future. :T

If you look at FFXI with their currency tab, they look like they always added the newest currency to the same window. All you had to do was scroll a bit with it.

It would be nice if all currency forms would be put into the currency tab. Those Mhachi coins, Alexander gears/cogs, deltascape currencies... I really get tired of having to delete those to make room in my already limited bagspace.

That's a whole different thing entirely. I'm talking about moving the currency from one window to another. You're talking about turning item currency that you can interact with into just something shown in a menu, which would require more work, which there have been other threads dedicated to just that before.

But it's not different. The same amount of work would be required for both. They're both currency. It would require no more or less work to add them to the Currency window. Changing it from an item simply requires a line change designating it as an actual item that appears in the bags. They're already treated as currency by the vendors.

One is simply moving from Menu A to Menu B. One is turning an item from a tangible interactive token into a currency. They're treated as tokens at the vendors, not a currency.

Beast Tribe currency says hello.

Beast tribe currency in Currency menu being implemented in a big patch (X.X instead of X.XX, specifically 4.1), with datamined signs of most of the work being implemented back in 4.0 says hello.

It's not just a single line of code.

Please it will be nicer to track there than where it is currently, at least they are not in your inventory don't need more pointless bloat >_>

Your argument starts to fall apart once you think about it. Unless they were so inept to lay foundations for the same thing happening, this could be an easy addition to the work they already did in the past.

They did the exact same thing with beast tribe currency though

I'm very aware of this, trust me. This thread is not about that.

What I'm suggesting is to simply move a currency from one window to another because it actually makes sense.

What people seem to be trying to turn this thread into is 'oh take these 40+ token items and turn them into currencies.' There are items for Head/Body/Hands/Belt/Pants/Boots/Accessories/Weapons. And that's JUST in normal mode.

Alexander Gordias/Midas/Creator, savage has four pages in total for savage mode - 7 tokens in each normal mode. 4 pages in each savage mode, one weapon token from the last of each normal mode as a weekly item normally

Omega Delta/Sigma/Alpha, Four data logs you get here - 7 tokens each normal mode, 4 pages in each savage mode, one weapon token from the last of each normal mode as a weekly item normally

Eden's Gate - 7 tokens in normal mode, and one weapon token you currently get once a week. Savage doesn't have tokens and you instead get coffers to get what you want if you get it

Do you see where I'm going with this? We have a CRAP TON OF TOKENS and this topic should have its own thread about it, not trying to change a thread that's ONLY for moving something to the proper window that already exists. Not changing dozens of items in game.

To be fair, it was never my intention to derail the thread.

I agree with your suggestion of adding and/or moving bicolor gemstones into the currency window.

In regards to the tokens, that needs attention altogether anyway. But I've accidentally derailed this thread enough, so I'll leave that for another thread.

Again, I agree with you, Bacent, about moving BCGs to the currency window. Kinda strange they didn't do this from the start, really.

I agree. Its hard to find the gemstones currently and it would make more sense for them to be on the currency window.

I would really love this to be implemented. I have an entire page and a bit of retainer inventory being wasted on old tokens from raids and would love to see it all consolidated on the currency window perhaps under a raids category.
