Can your inventory be increased ?

Honestly, the biggest thing you need to learn is to let go. Sometimes, it's worth it just to NPC something especially if it never sells on the market boards. Consider whether the hassle of having it in your inventory is a bigger issue than just getting it again. That stack of mythril ore on my retainer? Probably gonna keep it, I use it a lot. That single piece of maple lumber? I can get another if I really need it.

No, that's the big issue indeed. Did you ever notice that following the Murphy's law the items you let go are the ones that can only be bought back in batches of 99? We never know when we will need that single maple lumber or whatever. It takes a lot of time to memorize what's junk and what's not. And don't forget that we can have two types for each item, since HQ and normal don't stack together.


Also what's the point about selling the gear to GC? To get 100-200 seals? Please. Some gear is either good looking or with good stats. Not to mention all the things we can get now, and more in the future, from advanced raids. Plus the seasonal events stuff. The place for the Christmas suits is the Armoire, not the retailer. There is simply no space. Try to raise a culinarian and a blacksmith having 5 or 6 fighting jobs at the same time and see

See, if you always hold on to every item "just in case" then of course you will have inventory issues. For me, I get rid of that single piece of maple lumber because I can buy it cheap from an NPC, or go out and gather it myself. I do tend to keep items I can't obtain easily (Mostly monster drops like leather and sinew), even in small quantities.

As for selling gear to the GC, that's because it's one of the few ways to get rid of dungeon drops and get something useful in return. If the stats are useful, fine, keep it on hand as part of your set. If you like the look, keep it on hand as a vanity set. I actually keep a LOT of dungeon items myself. Just understand that you're making a choice. If you find yourself with no inventory because you've kept every last drop from every dungeon you've ever done, that's not SE's fault. It's yours.

Also, FYI, I am currently leveling all 8 crafting classes, including culinarian and blacksmith, as well as having gear sets for all 9 jobs. So, yeah, I kinda am doing that, and I see I can still manage my inventory.

(Oh, and HEC, turning in dungeon drops only gives seals. It doesn't add progress to the achievements)
