My retainer found something interesting...

[Martin_Arcainess]

I get alot of house stuff back.... But it seems lately both my retainers are holding crafters up and stealing their gear. I've received BSM head, HQ GSM body and Cul feet in last 2 days xD poor people

Still trying to figure out how my archer and gladiator are getting fish in the field. @.@

One of them wasn't a roof by any chance? Seriously I am getting SO sick and tired of these pesky retainers stealing my roofs all the time! I mean HOW can they steal a Roof?!?

Oh and your Archer and Gladiators might be hinting to you to change their Jobs to fisher.

Did your retainer really brave the Binding Coil for that Diagnostics Module? Or was it pilfered from your next door neighbor? To explain the enigma that is retainer ventures, we consulted our lore masters to discover what retainers are really up to.



So when your retainer brings back that Minute Mindflayer, its origin can be a story all your own. Perhaps it was carefully crafted in your retainers' spare time, or maybe they found it abandoned in an alley and seized the opportunity. We hope players will enjoy creating back stories for the items found by their retainers.

As an aside, my retainer doesn't like to bring me anything of worth these days since I accidentally rejected her beautiful gift awhile ago...

Actually fluff like this is GREATLY appreciated!

As long as she doesn't bring you a Llymlaen's Embrace house fountain.

Some I guess "useful"/interesting items I've gotten from my retainers:

- Giantsgall Claws (sold for around 200k I believe, this was around 2.2 launch)
- Gysahl Ring
- Nymian Orb (apparently my i11 lvl 38 btn is running Wanderer's Palace)
- Warwolf Jerkin of Aiming
- a Gerbald's Redspike (an i52 lance, idk where it even comes from)
- Dalamud Popto Set (seeds for the Dalamud Popoto, sadly we don't even have a house )
- various tier 4 materia (Piety being one of them, goes for 150k+ on my server)
- a NQ Weaver's Gibus (the hat)

I might've also gotten a primal weapon and a Moggle Mog XII's Whisker. Other than those it's usually lots of fish and various housing items, usually windows.

I got a Garuda's Couch which sells for like 100-150k on my server Though mines still on the market at 111,111.

The lance is apparently a 1.0 only drop from Cutters Cry. Nice to see that stuff from 1.0 is obtainable.

Notes
Version 1.0, this item could be acquired in Cutter's Cry, but it is now unobtainable. An identical version of the item with better stats, the Darklight Harpoon, is now obtainable from the final chest in The Wanderer's Palace.

Funniest thing I had brought back. was.

Went to the bell to check what goodies they had brought me back. Checked the first retainer, she had brouhgt me back a complete roof! Not that funny.

Until I checked the 2nd retainer, she had brought me back a roof tile!

Think the second needs more training XD

[necrosis]

Well once I get my minion I don't think I will bother with this anymore.

It just a huge influx of **JUNK** that does not sell. There is almost a full page of housing crap in our FC chest and we don't even have a house!

Really? I agree there is A LOT of housing items but, retainer ventures are currently my main income. ._. Maybe I just have a bad income. LOL.

Thank you for the reply by the way, Camate! ^.^ We should make some website called Tales of the Retainers or something. =3
