    Item destruction, or limited space in the dresser (I may go back to calling it a toilet).. not both.
    Well Yoshida more than once stated that people should just throw away dungeon gear if they have no storage left...glamour gear that might be hard to get since its no guaranteed drop thus can take quite the while to farm it again even unsynch.

    And wait you cant use the old and new system? Didnt they just said the complete opposite in the liveletters? So if people want a complete glamour they need to either only use the old system or the new one but not both? Thats just bad..

    And honestly I would accept beta versions more if we get a true promise that more would come..but there was no hint that this was only a beta version. They only said that they will increase the limit but not when and not how much..

    The plates apply the glamour onto the gear itself so if you want to use the old system too, you need to keep reapplying the glamours on individual pieces. For example: 1) glamour RDM the old way with 5 prisms, 2) glamour SMN the new way by using a plate, 3) use another 5 prisms to glamour RDM again because the SMN plate overwrote the original glamour. The glamour plate doesn't go "over" the old glamour appearance, but rather replaces it. This means wearing a unique outfit on each job is as cumbersome and expensive as it has always been, i.e. you have to re-glamour every time when changing a job.

    Actually they have said they intend to build on this system. For example one complaint, that you couldn't use gear in the Dresser to glamour squadron members or retainers, was something they said they wanted to address by making it possible to use stuff stored in the Dresser for those glamours.

    The Dresser definitely needs work but its not a complete lost cause. Its limitations are frustrating though and I hope they can address those somewhat. Even more plates would improve the system a great deal.

    The question remains: When will they build onto this system and will they truly change it? I lost any kind of good will towards them since they often said stuff and did not keep up with that. Who knows..maybe they will do it but as long as that limit exists and items are getting destroyeds its a no go for me. It could also happen that they see that they cant build onto this system much more and suddenly we will wait a long time for an update.

    @Reinha: Ugh that sound tedious..

    Maybe they should create systems where they dont need to change things so much in the future to make it into a good system. :/

    If not, I want a roll back and get my gear back lol.
    Right now you cant take things out of it again. They are kinda destroyed if you put them in that. Did they not have some big message that this will destroy it forever which you would have to click accept? If not shame on them..not everyone reads patch notes.

    Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
