Another Raid, another 8 currencies to bloat our inventory.

But those are not currencies, but exchange objects. This would be like putting cigarettes in your wallet just because you know someone who would give you apples for those cigarettes. And only apples and nothing else.

Oh, I see what you did there. You applied real world logic. If we are doing that, then how the heck do you fit a giant dresser and couch in your bag with all those swords and lances and armor? Hmm....

I think it will not break the game, if all the OLD raid gear currencies being condensed in just one only, as happens today with old tomestones, converted to poetics.

Yes, this would be really nice to have. If they can't convert all the old tokens into one universal token, then they should at least do the following:

• One token type per raid series, period.
• Two token types per raid series; one for Normal and one for Savage.
• Remove the token system entirely for old raids and have gear drop normally (not my favorite option as it would put players at the mercy of RNGsus but it might ultimately alleviate the problem with currency clogging up inventory space).

Because really, the main - if not only - reason people run the old raids are for glamour. Typing this out however, I'm thinking that (aside from the tinfoil hat theory that SE wants us to buy more retainers for space) SE sees this as a way to keep people running old content, especially if gear for different slots are confined to specific raids. /shrug

If the new currencies from the Eden raid are "bloating your inventory," then you are mismanaging your inventory horrible (read: you're hoarding).

It's pretty annoying tbh.
Maybe make each fight give progressively more tokens so that there's incentive not to just spam the first one.

I also agree with binding all the old previous expansion raid gear to a single token.
It's all pretty much glams at this point anywyay, and it could help people trying to get over the staggering desynth leveling wall that happens post level cap of every expac.

100% agreed with this. If you're not actively leveling your desynth, you're going to struggle on a new expansion launch.

My first initial reaction was "Found the person who doesn't craft or gather" and checked your character that you're posting on.

Yep, not a single crafter / gatherer leveled.

I don't know why people are arguing that currency items should take up limited inventory. It's simply unnecessary. Can you make it work? Yes... but why?

It's not arguing that currency items should take up limited inventory space, it's arguing that if your inventory is bloated, then you're mismanaging your inventory. Even if S-E doubled the total inventory space, these hoarders would still have problems.

[Krotoan]

Why are people still hoarding old tokens?

Yes currency bloat sucks, but as far as raid rewards go there's not a whole lot of reason to hold on to old omega raid or Alexander raid junk. In theory it should be the same 8 slots being gummed up, not MORE slots.

Who cares? This is about currency taking up inventory.

Ok, hoarders will be hoarders.... why derail the conversation with something so obvious?

[Kuroka]

Why cant ppl not accept that some ppl play differently and dont wanan trash all the stuff in a game where its literally a few kb at max. ...? Its nice if you never had problems but im bags explode just from all the crafting and gathering trash....

No one would be hurt if they finally improove the system >_>
