Relic Weapon Storage

Am I the only one who feels that we should be able to store fully finished Relics in either the Glamour Dresser or Armoire(PREFERABLY ARMOIRE)? As someone who's been playing for years, and has a major addiction to relic quests; there is a large portion of my inventory taken up by finished relics that are essentially just over-glorified glamour items. Does anyone else feel the same?

The reason you can't put them in the dresser or armoire is because it would remove the custom stats they have, the dresser and armoire don't keep that data.

Yess it doesn't feel right but the solution is to throw the original relics away and only store / rebuy the replicas.

The armoire and glamour dresser don't really store the item, only a number in a data base and thus they can't save the customizable stats on the relic weapons with this system. And since there already is a solution with the replicas to essentially remove these custom stats - and also to circumvent the need to store them at all - it's unlikely SE will invest further ressources into this.

They're just small indie company, please understand. But you can buy extra retainers for mere $2 a month for each retainer to get that extra storage you need!

Spaghetti code strikes back again.

"Sorry best we can do is offer you an additional subscription in addition to the one you already pay to play the game to get more storage" - Square Enix

I think the Glamour dresser should interface with all the vendors where you unlock gear (Relic Weapons, Skybuilders Tools, Calamity Salvager...) and you can add things to your plates from there. It does essentially the same thing with the Armoire already.

It honestly wouldn't be too much for them to implement a way to store the stat data or let it reset and be reallocated once withdrawn. I personally would rather them have a section in the Armoire as there isn't a limitation to the storage. As a FC Leader whom prefers to enable my FC Memebers to request crafts at either a major discount compared to MB prices or free(should we have the required materials) I already have max retainers which are full of every mat imaginable. Thus using a retainer for every class and every relic available takes up a lot of space.

There's zero reason for them to even consider modifying storage to include stat data, significantly increasing the data load. The stored items are intended for glamour purposes only, stats have no bearing, only for appearances. As such, there's no reason to give any consideration for how to store a completed relic, as the replicas share the same appearance and achieve the same functionality when stored, with a fraction of the data.

Right as you are it doesn't change the desire. Call it OCD or something but I prefer the original over a replica.

Alternatively, just let you rechoose stats on older relics when stored/recalled. Or give a “dormant” relic that can be re-stated via some npc.

as long as you have to pay the in-game currency to reallocate stats, they can't just give you free substat rerolls. (esp with the Eureka relic where you don't even get to choose your substats it's all RNG).

You know what ? Let's push that even further : Can we have some kind of personal museum to expose every single artefact weapons we unlocked ? Trophies for extreme, savage and ultimate ? Or even for awfully tedious achievements like the hunt/mentor ones ?

So, just hypothetical, why not pay the fee to get a “blank but stat-able” weapon that can be stored and/or later rerolled.

going to bump this. there is no reason job/replica relic weapons can not go in armoire. replicas were literally made for glamouring. they have no stats and are level 1.

i also want to add that armour for job gear, 50-90 + should all be added. this was already a thing in arr but was not continued in HW+ and i am very annoyed they did not. even the dyable arr stuff can be put in there

There is definitely a limitation to the armoire storage. As I've outlined previously in multiple other threads when the subject of a glamour catalog came up--which is essentially what the armoire is, for a limited set of items--even if it was simply a one bit for one item storage, it would take up an unignorable amount of space, and it would scale worse than a limited inventory glamour dresser does.

Can you get replicas before finishing the last stage?

And I would be fine with that.

The reason would be to satisfy your customers and not let them feel fleeced so they continue being customers.

And then when you pulled the item out of the armoire again, some special case handler would have to run to re-stat your relic. It's far safer to just tell you no and make you use a replica for glamour.

Honestly it could reset the stats and require you to reallocate them at the pre-existing NPC before equipping it. Or require you to have the item needed to reallocate stats prior to withdrawing it. But yes. I understand that that would be something that will never happen as the data requirement would be pointless in SE's eyes. There are still better inventory alternatives they could implement regarding Relics that they don't. Such as items relating to the quest becoming Key Items. I remember when Beast Tribe currency took up inventory space before they turned it into a spot in the currency menu.

No it wouldn't but moot since neither goes in the armoire.

It still boggles my mind that only the item level 50 artifact armor can be stored in the armoire. All of the artifact armor should be able to be stored there.

This. I get needing the replicas for glamor, but not being able to store the originals in the armoire is just showing us they want us to pay for more storage.

buy another retainer for an extra 2 USD a month. 5 USD for the other half of the chocolo saddle bag. no more storage problems for the time being

I shiver over the idea of storing custom stat containers for the dozens of outdated relics instead of something simple like a constant dye list to apply. Hence the replicas solve so many things. Yes, I get that relics are BiS for older content and ultimates. It's purely down to making something so unique for little benefit.

As previously stated. I already have and use maximum retainers for materials for my FC. Having played since 2013 and having all classes and most relics as well. Thus this doesn't help any lol. Honestly the point of this whole thread was to see how many others may agree to the point of having a different way of storing Relics
