The Armoire: Are there any plans to make it more... useful?

[DSN]

Greetings,

In patch 2.1, we will be expanding the number of items that you can place within the armoire:

• Seasonal items from events that took place after the launch of A Realm Reborn
• Items from the "Lightning Strikes" event
• Collector's Edition bonus items
• Pre-order bonus items
• Main tools obtained from the level 50 Disciples of the Hand class quests

Any plans to make this useful ahead of time instead of post events going forward? Why do we always have to wait (and so long) to be able to add new items to the armoire? Should this not be done when you create and do the data entry for any new items you add to the game instead of playing catch up all the time?

What the hell is a Cactaur, I wonder...

So when can I get rid of the extra pieces of AF that I got from re-doing job quests in ARR while I had my AF from 1.x in my armoire?

[Felis]

Or af1 gear from myth considering we can put in our job armor and myth is little more than job armor with a different color set?

Can't you buy them again with myth everytime you want?

Great news, all I was hoping for was forward progress and this delivers. Let's keep it up!

You know how awesome it sounds to tell people "oh hey you can just delete the old item and spend 1-2 weeks capping myth for it again if you want the look back"? As I said af1 is nothing more than a recolor of our job armor we get while leveling, why can we put our job armor in but not the recolor of it?

We desperately need it to resemble this kind of system Mr. Cactaur, http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Porter_Moogle

Just improve the Armoire period. The Porter Moogle can be the "Remote Access NPC". No Claim slips as they were made due to inventory limitations based on core coding in that game.

• Add in more rare/ex gear.
• Tabbed Categories / Sorting.
• Remote access from areas besides Inn aka Porter Moogle.

Unless you have more news on the Retainer and Armoury system to share with us SE...

Because the job armor is Truly Unique in that it cannot by any means be reacquired in the game.
Same with event items that are only avaiable once or for limited time and will never be avaiable again.

If the item doesn't falls under "Cannot ever be reacquired" aegis, then it can go in the armoire. If you CAN reacquire it at some point, then it cannot go in the armoire.

Well they did say a retainer upgrade of some sort couldn't make it in for 2.1......so please be excite.
