It Needs To Be Easier to Transfer Items Between Your Characters On The Same World

[LalaRu]

The transfer of items between your characters on same world is enough easy, don't see the need to make changes. You always need to log off and on to get them, and you always have to use an interface (fc vault), so a different interface (your mail) does not adds nothing.

Unique/nontrade items are meant -by game design- to be kept only by the character who got them, and I like things keeps as is.

It sucks that SE makes us all suffer because they can't find a sensible way to deal with gil sellers. I remember a while back, somebody asked about shared storage (or something similar) and Yoshdia said they couldn't do that due to gil sellers. If we can't have that, then they should at least allow us to send mail between alts x amount of times per day; they could even limit it by not allowing us to mail gil between alts. It's silly that I have to keep giving people items so they can give it back to me on my alt.

Why would you have more than one character on a server in this game.....

Why is one of the top answers to a question like this always "gilsellers would use it"? Of course gilsellers would use it. SE needs to track gilsellers independantly of features players want, like by adding quick reporting tools (right click -> report works nicely in other games) and not by just keeping useful features out.

Role play purposes, maybe you just want a different race for each job, can max out more characters faster (weekly tome limit), more DoL maps for you per day, can help people with things that have a weekly lockout (coils), etc.

Simple - a crafting character with crafting retainers and a DoW character with DoW retainers and a gathering character with gathering retainers, or maybe even just a burn out character to play on when you are sick and tired of your FC draining you every single time you log on. What does it matter?

I can see it for the retainers, but thats pretty hardcore. The game lets you have every single class on 1 character, just seems illogical to make a 2nd character.
Seems like the game is designed around the idea of only having 1 character.

I can also understand wanting to log in incognito.


But I would venture to say that 90%+ of people here have 1 char per server. And if that is indeed true, it isn't really in SE's interest to "fix" a problem that doesn't exist with the majority of its player base.

There's other reasons as well, such as storage. I remember having several "mules" in XI that would hold various items for me that overflowed the inventory. Some people are pack rats like that. I mean, it just seems silly to argue against allowing characters to mail items to one another on the same account. That they even thought to put preventative code in for it is a little baffling.

would be nice to have this, Aion has a shared bank, witch is really nice to have. not having this is not going to stop rmts, they always find a way around doing things, seeing that they have more then one acc.

The whole can't send item to people not on your friendlist does nothing to stop RMTs they should of left delivers the way there were in XI you could mail items to anyone.

I make multiple characters for role playing, with each character having a focus on 1 to 2 roles to play with. However it got really outrageous that I have to rely on friends to transfer gil and items just to do what I want... a lame barrier. I bought another account to help myself transfer and finally do treasure maps whenever I want, instead of being forced to do 4 at a time.

I have 3 characters at 50, finishing up the current storyline of 2.3, with another character coming up... no idea why, but it feels to fun to play a different race.
