Another Raid, another 8 currencies to bloat our inventory.

......so what you are saying is that there should be a system in place where materials from ARR/HW/StB/SdB should be in this tab-like system, the same way as in currencies to combat bloating? Lots and lots of hand holding there....

Guild Wars 2 has had it for years. SE is supposed to be taking the best practices from other MMO's and learning from them.

How are primal tokens any different to beast tribe tokens? Beast tribe tokens are in the currency tab.

ill say since the Raid items are limited
while beast tribes are not
you can buy materials and Dyes

raid books you have all the sets and that's it
no mats,no dyes a limited selection for raids that are basically on a time limit of relevance

if they just went into the key item slot sure
but to rework them into a currency is waste imo when effort like that should be worked onto the dyes somthing that is in much much dire need of a currency esk slot or somthing akin to the crystals instead of these raid items

But the materials over here compared to Guild Wars 2 is so much more. And Guild Wars 2 materials are much more simplified. They had like 6 tiers of materials only compared to ffxiv across all expansions. And once you get your Ascended gear crafted there's really not much else to craft since there isn't any higher than Ascended or Legendary gear.

I don't mind the new raid currencies, but I think that once a raid tier is no longer current they should consider turning them into some sort of generic raid token, instead of arms, legs, head, etc, just have it be a coin or something. That way the people that are hoarding those old tokens for lord knows what reason, don't have to worry about it.

I don't think I want another tab in currencies, seems like it would become really cluttered really fast.

What??? Literally all I'm saying is they should stick the same exact thing we already get in the currency tab instead of in the inventory. What are you even talking about?

What im saying is for normal raids you lot for and item not for a currency. You want it to be a currency item itll drop to your currency tab so now you have to pay more of a garanteed item got it?

... No?

Thats not how any of that would work.

They have to be trolling with that response. Don't feed them.

With the new drop system it is quite easy to drop exactly the number of a given token you want, to buy your stuff right away after the raids are done. I have only one token more in my inventory, the weekly one, and it will be gone as soon as i can buy the upcoming weapon. I have already next week planned, and when i will be done with my main job i will switch to equip another one the same way. We are not with the old system anymore, if you think beforehand and aren't rolling mindlessly on all the drops your inventory will not become bloated as the topic title say.

[SenorPatty]

The desperation to make sure raid tokens is not implemented as currency in the currency tab is astounding. I've never seen such lofty responses to a QoL that has virtually no downsides. It's almost like these people want to go back to the beast tribe token days have those currencies fill up their inventory.


Yeeesh.

See, I do agree with you, but I said primal tokens. Heres how I see the system:

- Primal tokens should go in the currency tab
- The currency tab should get an "inventory" for exchange items such as raid tokens and 24man tokens or the key items tab in the inventory should be updated with a new interface that houses these items and separates them from quest items (or we just get a new exchangable items tab).
