Request: Expand apartments to be upgradeable in size and amenities

[Valfreyja]

Didn't read it all.

Need the following placeables to stick in an apartment.

1. Mail Slot (wall mounted) - to retrieve your mail, should be usable in houses as well
2. Workshop access
3. Hydroponics Growing Stand - 8-plant bed that goes vertical instead of on the floor, so you can grow plants inside just like the Deluxe Garden Bed.

I agree that we should get bigger apartment access. Just keep in mind this has to function on the Instance server with everything else in the game that is instanced. That includes apartment interiors, house interiors, company workshop and private chamber interiors, dungeons, trials, raids, etc.

Workshop access should never be decoupled from scarcity - honestly, they've done enough inflationary damage as it is.

[Valfreyja]

How is giving everyone access to a workshop causing damage?

Because FCs won't be able to hoard those full exterior walls and make millions off them? Or using the Sub voyages to get all the vendor items to make lots of gil?

[Sindele]

Mostly voyage gil generation, yes. It's already wildly unhealthy for the game as it is, and I don't think we really want to exist in a world where you have to have solo FC alts turning over workshops to be able to afford anything of value.

Logged on here just to reply to this thread with a resounding YESSS PLEASE all of this.. being such a huge fan of anything Ishgardian and losing out on a plot only to see them all fill up was such a huge gut punch, so I begrudgingly settled for an apt but honestly wouldn't even WANT a normal plot if I could just upgrade it.

I love your 1st suggestion... I'm unsure about your 2nd since the workshop is just about the only way my FC leader is able to make any sort of gil which all goes back into the FC itself to help us players with whatever we need. Also I mentioned in my post that an option for a greenhouse would be nice with room for deluxe garden plots. I'll definitely add the mail slot thing to my post tho.

[IckeDerTyp]

YES THIS.

Maybe they'll even listen this time around :3

[Valfreyja]

Yeah, but there are other ways to make gil, clearly. Given the number of houseless players that are just doing fine with making gil.

Instead of having exclusive access to the Exteriors, or Sub loot for vendors, it will return to crafting and selling gear, Primal weapons, glam items, shard or crystal farming, or other methods.

Still plenty of ways to make the gil. There are also mounts and minions that can be farmed to sell to make gil.

Fun idea, fund it

THIS. Exterior housing is way too unreasonably expensive.
