Screw retainers, I want moogles!

[Uriahnool]

I think we should get rid of all the retainers. Also, they should be replaced with everyone having their own moogle. The market wards should be controlled by a dozen or so NPC's in each ward behind the counters. The moogles will transport items to and from the NPC's as their owner specifies or as the market wards are organized.

In the market wards, there will be a wanted board and a selling board. This is where the magic happens. Let's say someone wants a pair of black leather jackboots and they want to pay 2000 Gil for it. They can post this on the job board with their character name, what they're seeking, and what they're offering. A passerby can "take the order" and they will have 1 hour to fill it (or longer). Once it's ready, they can send their moogle to deliver the item. If a player is online, a message will sprout up saying "Order complete (click for details)." If a person is offline, when they return, they will be notified of a completed order.

I think in this way people will be able to sell their goods very efficiently, and those crafting can have some good ideas on what to do to gain exp, as well as branch out and seek items from other wards.

This same concept can be used for repairs. You can tell your moogle to place an item up for repairs in the market wards. There will be a "Repair Board" where people can take the order and repair it. Your moogle will then bring it back to you when it is repaired.

Basically my idea is that you can summon your moogle form anywhere in the world (similar to ffix), tell it what you want it to do, and send it off to do it. People will still have to travel to the market wards to view the market boards, but to sell items, store items, seek items, or seek repairs, this is all done through moogles and a delivery system. Someone, make it happen.

This will never happen. This is not FFXI where moogles are an everyday occurrence.

Moogles have a big plot then just everyday occurence like "Dreamer" Said just like Avatar have a big plot vs FFXI.

I agree that moggles are not really in the FFXIV lore as being domestics so they wouldn't feel right.

But I think the board ideas in your post is great.

i'm totally for this, Retainers was going to be a good idea until i see how crowded are the markets ward....

[Zenaku]

Moogles are part of the storyline and there more like a race/mob in the game so i don't think they ever use moogle like they did in ffxi.
