I hope this is an oversight by the Devs, but the armoire are pretty much useless in ARR compared to how it used to work back in 1.x.

In 1.x, event items can be placed into the armoire, and this is currently very lacking in ARR since it doesn't allow all event items.

If SE is to have events where they encourage players to collect the items, then SE needs to allow the players to store those items into the armoire, or SE needs to make a special storage area in the retainers so these event items aren't counted as regular inventory items.

This needs to be taking care of, or else event items will be useless rewards as we cannot and will not keep them due to what is already very limited inventory space.
