3rd Retainer coming when?

[FizzGigg]

If I read the last live letter correctly, a 3rd retainer was slate to be coming after 2.1. I am just curious as to when this might be. I don't know about you.. but I really could use that space about now.

A third retainer would be nice I agree.

I hear you it sucks that I can only selling two markets I'd love to be able to selling all three and the storage space would definitely be nice as well

Ugh a 3rd one? I'd rather get rid of the second and enlarge the inventory of the only one remaining. Going through 2 retainers to find the ingridients for crafting is already annoying, one more will make it even more puzzled. I'd love to have a bigger inventory as well but why the separation through a boat load of retainers? It is all my stuff in the end. I don't need a retainer at all and prefer to have everything with me at any time to make instant use of my crafters and collectors. Right now, whenever I want to craft an item or use my fisher, I have to visit my retainers first, go through the mess that's called inventory and put the stuff back after I am done. Waste of time imo.

Very much this. Having one retainer with more storage would be optimal and maybe changing what gear can go into the armoire would go a long way to fixing the space issues

I also agree with this. The only drawback for this is that you would only be able to represent a single city-state but I can live with that!

Ok so.. 2.16 has come and gone.. no retainers yet.. no bag space increases.. no company chest space increase..

Are we ever going to see another retainer for personal use? I could care less if it has access to the markets.. or if you opt for just increasing current retainers space. I literally, as a full crafter/gatherer and now leveling more jobs to 50, have 12 unused spaces in my inventory and retainers. I have now made an alt so I can store gathered mats on due to the fact if I farm anything... aaaanything.. I have no space to put it. This is becoming very tedious, and now more of my FC members are starting to have the same issues.

How is everyone else dealing with this issue? Please dont answer that if you arent an active crafter/gather.. because obviously you dont have this problem.

One retainer for gear, One retainer for Materia and misc items and one retainer for crafting materialls.

One retainer for gear, One retainer for Materia and misc items and one retainer for crafting materialls.

That might work for some people, but what about when you have too much crafting/gathering materials to fit in one retainers space? I'm nowhere near a full-time crafter/gatherer (20-something levels in my highest crafting, slightly above that with gathering), but I have three slots available with my material retainer. Sure, I'd probably save space by only keeping the high-quality materials, but I shouldn't have to be that selective.

Wait, if I put items on my retainer to sell, only one of the three cities can see it? I thought they changed that with 2.0...
