Expanded Armoire List

[Nahald]

I don't know about all of you, but I for one am rather sentimental about items that I've worked very hard to get. Whether it be artifact armor, armor I get from trading tomestones, or raid armor from Crystal Tower or Coil, I like holding onto rare armor long after I've outgrown it and it's served its purpose. What I do not like, however, is the space it takes up in my retainers, and this is coming from a guy who primarily uses one combat-oriented job.

This game offers very little in the way of offering storage for higher-level armor. So far the only storeable high-level armor that I know of is the original artifact armors in 2.0, but even that becomes unstoreable once it becomes augmented, as if you're being punished for success. I really don't see why these equipment sets can't be stored. Even FFXI had a system for storing high-level armor sets aside from artifact armor, why can't FFXIV? I don't know about you, but I don't want to have to choose between throwing out my old armor that I put so many hours into getting and forking over some cash for an extra retainer. Not to mention the fact that I am an RPer, so having a big wardrobe is somewhat important to me.

I don't know if anyone's ever brought anything like this up before. The only other thread relating to this topic that I've seen is one that someone made regarding holiday items that are still unstoreable, which makes me somewhat unconfident that the dev team will ever get around to expanding their list of storeable items beyond holiday items. But I do hope this thread gets more attention because I think this is rather important quality-of-life mechanic that they should implement for respect of long-time players.

This same issue has often turned up as a wish for some sort of glamour log, because most people who feel the trouble with storing such amounts of old equipment do so precisely for the will to preserve their looks, not as much the items themselves. And thus hope there would be some way to recall just what item looks they have unlocked, or the sort.

This issue gets brought up from time to time. Each time is brought up, it usually gets buried under all the other topics. It has also been brought up in the producer live letters more than once. I can only assume that they know about the issue, and are working on a solution. The only thing we are lacking is any sort of direct confirmation from the dev reps (outside of the live letters), so it's not terribly likely that a solution will be available any time soon.
