Thread: Will the Heavensturn Kabutos and Snowman/Dream suits be storeable soon?

I can't believe I'm saying this, because I LOVE events and vanity pieces, but I'm starting to dread any more right now. I finally made some room putting the lightning weapons in the armoire, and now we have 12 new pieces that don't store?! I simply don't have room for all this stuff that we can't even use right now since we don't have vanity slots!

Just out of curiosity, why aren't any of the new seasonal or special gift items ever flagged for armoire storage at the same time they are introduced? It's always something that has to be done in a patch usually months following. It's been this way since 1.0. I'm sure there's a legitimate reason for it, I'd be interested to learn what it is.

I imagine it's the easiest way for them to give themselves a whole year to fix stupid dupe bugs they should catch to begin with. And also to cut down on the amount of people requesting support for duplicate event items (this way it's only people who forgot they stored it last year instead of them plus people who do it while the event is running).

They've been doing this since FFXI. There must be a reason because it just doesn't make any sense, lol. It cant come a s a surprise that people want to store new event items.

And now we know the reason is that they want you to get frustrated with the lack of storage so you'll spend more real money per month on the extra retainers.

There's really no excuse other than incompetence, to be honest. Common sense would suggest that you allow your players to utilize the storage options given to them, but that is something Squeenix doesn't seem to have in much supply.

The Snowman suit should be at some point, but the Dream Suit will not be most likely. Same with the Usagi Kabutos(ie these specific ones will not likely be allowed).

I see, I didn't know that. Hopefully we can get some kind of official response from the devs^^
