Two classless Retainers

[NeoZanther]

Well, due to Heavens I now have two additional retainers. My problem is, I already have a Mining, Bot, Fisher and an Arcanist retainer and just can't decide on what to turn my two additional ones into. Had thought about doubling up on Mining and Bot just to make my crafting a tad more bearable into HW, but will take a while for either one now to get high enought to benifit me, same with making them into two combat classes. Should of posed this question back in June

Combat classes.

One miner and one botanist can generally keep up with my needs, though admittedly I'm mostly just crafting leveling gear and GC hand in stuff, very little to sell. However, so much stuff is retrieved by a combat class, one is nowhere near enough.

I'd initially gone 1 of each, then with HW gotten the other four. I had gone and made the four new ones two miner and two botany, but by the time they got near level 50 I found that one was enough to handle most of my needs. I'm now in the process of taking two (one miner, one botany) up as combat classes instead of gathering classes.

Another consideration : combat classes get 5, 7, or 10 of an item. Miner/botany are more like 10, 20, 30 of an item. And areas where they mix, such as turning hides into leathers, you need more combat drops than you do gathered drops.

I use two fishers, a miner and a botanist but I may switch one fisher into a combat class once I gain another gestahl minion since already have the fat cat and sold first gestahl. The minions and leveling cul desynth was the reason I chose fishers for first two retainers and now only one minion to get and desynth already now capped it might be time soon to change one to combat.

I had to buy two new retainers for HW due to the amount of stuff I hoard. I had an ACN, MIN, BTN & FSH from 2.x and went for CNJ then MIN. I may get another BTN. Having two combat retainers is essential for those materials only obtained in small amounts given how greedy 3.x recipes are.

I had to get another retainer and he'll be a BTN.

So. Much. Stuff. >_<
