Retainers, confirmed, you have to pay for them.

I like how they did it in FFXI... Like in Aht Urhgan to have an additional mog space you have to buy in game currency known as gold peices, silver peices, and bronze peices, and you gave them to your npc, and however much you gave them extended the length of how long you had access to your newly acquired space. Why didn't they go this route?

Nono you misunderstand you cut the post "Ctrl + X" then after its posted click edit post then Ctrl+V it back into the existing post to get past the 1k post limit

she misunderstood you despite your good intentions and clear explanation.

Let it go, this one is on a war path and is out for blood! Run child, run!

1- its fine
2- this is considered a basic service, so yes, unless it give a cash player a distinct advantage over regulars.
3- it affects gameplay a negligible amount.
4- depends on how many people are vocal.
5- not right now, maybe in the future.
6- no.

See that? They already artificially created a need for 35 inventory slots + all new stuff that is coming out as well.

Funny thing is, do people really need to carry all grades? Like what gear would people wear under 20 on a serious note? Who says you NEED to carry them? Just buy or get what you need use it and voila you still have 35 spaces in your inventory. Using your head to make/save space (also even with those 35 spaces I would still have 131 space) :P. It's still a non issue personally.

True, I take that back then. However, I see no reason to lug around a stack of each grade around.

1) Buy or make 5 Prisms for your gear.
2) Attach the gear to another
3) Prisms are gone? (I am assuming once they are used they disappear.

If #3 is the case then not many people will have inventory issues due to "prisms"

OMG Star you are being far too pragmatic Of course we all carry the lvl 1-5 *5 spaces* items to meld with, we also keep 1 of every materia in our bag JUST IN CASE we need it. So of course we have to carry every lvl of every craft JUST IN CASE we need it /sarcasmoff

Haha!, that cracked me up! Yeah, lets carry 1 of EVERYTHING! then maybe I will have a reason to buy another retainer @.@ bahahaa!

You do realise Yurimi was trying to assist you? Pretty sure we all know it is a forum and what it is usually used for. As Yuri said if in the future you want to type out your *more lengthy, well thought out and fleshed out responses* do what the rest of us do. Type out your story and then copy and cut to leave approximately the 1000 characters then EDIT your post and paste your cut words back in.

And yet there was no mention of the EDIT function. The post conveyed the messege of "Take out your post, cut it down to 1k, then paste it back in" rather than "Take out your post, Cut part of it out, paste it, then edit the post and add the additional portion back"

Proper wording people, use it.

Well of course I can save space and organize constantly and all that junk but having an extra retainer would make life easier.

Then by all means spend your 2 bucks, that's your business. Other people including me will just do a routine check on our Retainers and never have inv space issues heh.

I don't even think that was my point in the beginning.

Says the person that sounds like she going to buy a couple of them.

$4 extra for a months worth of entertainment isn't even the cost of a cup of coffee. I'm more than happy to pay real dollars in preference to having to work at getting them through the game. We are provided with a heap of inventory space up front so paying with real dollars for additional is OK. If others aren't prepared to pay extra for it then they obviously don't really need it.

And yet, it looks like you might get an advantage from having extra retainers.

If you look this is different from carbon matter which was UP TO certain levels this is specific level ranges so I can't keep around the rank 5 ones and do it all and actually I do keep materia that I may need it may not be 1 of each but in my retainer I have stuff that is common for relic melds or useful for the crafted i70 sets
