This is a suggestion, something that bugs me a lot about dye storage. Would be amazing if we could, while using the Glamour Dresser, use the dyes stored in our Retainer's inventory or Chocobo saddlebag.
Currently I store all of them in the saddlebag, but it's very cumbersome when planning a new glamour plate. If only I could move them to my own inventory while using the glamour dresser, but not even that.

I would like dyes to be kept in the Glamour Dresser and to function sort of like a currency while in there. You could have the option of pulling them out if you need to trade or sell them.

Honestly, and I know a lot of people hate when I say this because "but that's my market!"
I wish they would do away with having individual pots of dyes full stop. I'd much prefer a system where you unlock colors, and once unlocked you can apply them at any time. They can charge gil for the dye to keep it similar to how it is now, but this would be much better than having to go make/buy more every time you want to apply a color. This system if how some other MMOs work, so it's definitely possible. -

Would definitely be nice if we could store them in the glamour dresser itself. That would free up about 80% of one retainer for me(it is literally just dyes and materia).
Of course not having to hold all those dyes would be good too by making it so we just unlock the colour and then can use it, but I highly doubt we would ever see that happening. -
11-07-2020, 02:30 AMWhiteArchmageI don't think that'd happen as several dyes are sold at the Mog Station. But good gods I'd love that; hell, make the Ishgard dyes cost 2000 scrips or more but you can use them anytime, I'd still buy them.Quote:

Easy and fast to use, and the glamour even had multiple dye options for the same armor piece, so you could dye individual parts of a chestpiece as example. I always hoped they copy that system as some armor items are dying exactly the part you don't want to dye.Quote:

Though I can see that being a harder system to implement with our current setup. Feel like that would require a larger overhaul of the entire system whereas just making applying dye of any color cost gil would be pretty easy (also it could provide more incentive to do certain content, like if the new bright pink was tied behind contributing enough to the Ishgard restoration, it would make more players incentivized to do crafting/gathering so they can unlock it) -

This is a great idea, I spend an entire retainer doing holding this and I need to purposely go grab them, annoying

Naw, lower their stack size to 16. I wanna feel like it Minecraft of something.

They should get their own separated place to be stored, just like crystals and beast tribe currencies do

no
What i dont want at all is a fragmented set of inventory bags. What if i want more general space since i only use limited number of colours? I'd rather they increase the general inventory in that case.
I could support the fact of unlockable, then allways available dye's but then it takes some dept out of the game.
Why hang on to most of the dye's by the way? all the ones you can buy from a house vendor are pointless to store. It takes a bit of effort to go to the beast tribe vendors but those are also easily obtained so why have them on hand unless its a colour you use all the time
crafted dye's are another one thats pretty pointless to store too, just keep the 6 pigments on hand and you are set -

It would be a huge QoL change. I also don't think being able to store dyes in the glamour dresser would tank the market. They would limit the amount you can put in the dresser, and then there is the inconvenience of having to port and take a mount over to one of the beast tribes that sale exclusive dyes, or gathering the pigments for the ones that can be crafted. And rare dyes will always have market value.
Pigments and rare dyes take up quite a bit of inventory space on their own. A change like this would alleviate a lot of inventory management without having to add inventory space. It's basically an ace that the devs simply have to choose to use because modifying the glamour dresser to take dyes along with prisms and glamours would be very easy to implement. I just hope they wouldn't do it in a way where dyes, prisms, and glamours share the space.
