A QOL change entirely because I'm lazy

[Violyre]

On retainers, we can store items. Sometimes, when you don't know better, or in a rush to empty up your inventory, you store a valueless item on them. Then sometime later, you could see it wasting space on your retainer, and be like "I should NPC this. But my inventory is full!" and then forget about it.

My suggestion is a command to tell your retainer to sell to NPC (The NPCs are like right there by the bell!). Feel free to have it be a time delay on selling the goods if you want, because if that extra two gil is a big thing for you, I think you may have other problems.

Since you can only buy from market boards, I don't think there'd be a large issue with quick buying and reselling stuff that vendors for more than the item MB cost. Again, even with the MB, the NPCs are RIGHT THERE. If you do that already, it'll still probably be faster to go to the NPC than call the retainer anyways.

Yes, I am incredibly lazy and forgetful.

I have always wished for two more retainer inventory options: discard, and convert.

If you have a lot of stuff you don't need stored, it is so frustrating to have to retrieve everything to your own inventory and THEN discard/convert it.

Wait, so you're suggesting that a retainer automatically sells off items in their retainer inventory. THE PLAYER'S ITEMS IN THEIR INVENTORY.

Just the items you tell it to sell. Say, for an example, I have an imp wing that's sitting there. It sells for 1g to an NPC, and the same price on MB. I'd rather put something that actually makes money on the MB, so I tell my retainer "go sell this stupid imp wing" and they do.

But we have that feature already, though. It requires the slightest modicum of effort, sure, but we have that feature.

If it's anything other than "take the item off your retainer and run to a vendor to sell," I'm not aware of it.

All of my this too!

I would like to craft out of my retainers inventory.
I hate having to search for mats then go get them off of which ever retainer has them then run back to my out of the way corner to craft said items.

i find myself saying this more and more... but SWOTR has this feature and it is actually really nice.



it would take rework to define what could be automatically sold tho... because choosing the items individually (telling your retainer what to sell off) would take just as much work as pulling the stuff out yourself and selling. Also, in swtor, this could be done in the field and it would take a couple mins for them to come back but since we only have one companion, thats not our retainers, it would only be possible to do this at the bell. SO then you must ask yourself... are you purposefully putting items into your retainers inventory just to mass sell it all when you could have just turned left instead towards the merchant??? lol stop being lazy :P

When you click on an item in your retainer's inventory, it already brings up a list of options. I don't see any issue with adding a "Sell" option to that list, which will cause the item to be cashed in for its NPC-price value.

It's not a huge deal, but I can see the value in it when it comes to housecleaning.

"Bah, my retainer is full of junk. Let's see what I can get rid of... I can marketboard those, but THESE aren't even selling for NPC price, so I'll just NPC them. There's twenty, though, and I only have four slot left in my inventory. Bah, guess I have to swap out items from my inventory for the stuff I wanna sell, and then come back and load up my inventory again. What a pain! Guess that's what I get for leveling FSH..."

If only there was a way to NPC-sell directly from your retainer, without first putting it into your own inventory!
