Organization

[Xenosan]

On my main I have ingredients/mats split between 2 retainers.

On an alt though I have all ingredients/mats on the same retainer.

The second way is so much nicer..

It's just. So. Much. Better.

I would love SE to readjust the UI in some form so that we can get to retainer storage unilateral-like.

I only have one character with two retainers. Grant it I was not heavy into crafting until the last month. Still I had a decent organization I think.

My primary retainer had all the mats that I was currently using for my crafts. I leveled my crafts from 1 - 30 with each other to keep materials relevant. Tab one was metal, two was lumber and so on. This wasn't perfect, as sometime metal would go into the next tab when I got into needing basilisk stone, gems and what not. But I knew all my materials was on one retainer.

My secondary retainer was used for Equipment I might find, Aetherial or better specifically, to set aside for later classes. Also if I found materials that I wasn't able to use yet. My crafting was behind my class for a bit, so I had a large amount of diremite sinews and webs in her back tabs waiting for weaver to catch up.

Once I leveled out of a mat, I would either vendor or MB it.
