Additiona freel retainers

[Saggo]

Why ask for more retainers, when we could be asking for a personal bank.

I want a new retainer 'cause I like dressing them up. ._.

The man already said no. Its 2 dollars per retainer per month. Skip 1 happy meal (you don't need it) a month and you have a retainer, skip 2 and you have 2 retainers. I mean really?

Even in f2p games, extra inventory space doesn't cost you $24-->$48-->$72... good grief. Do people even THINK about what SE is charging them? For inventory space? That any other MMO increases regularly free of charge (or just included in subscription) in the form of larger bags?

what I would like to see is a dynamic storage system. it's closed unless you call for something that happens to be in it or manually open it. thus most of the time it would not contribute to the data issue.
an example would be this could be kinda like a wardrobe system where you store your gear in it and it remains closed unless you use a gearset that happens to have some of the gear in said wardrobe.
white mage gearset has 4 pieces in the armory chest and the rest in the wardrobe. so it opens the wardrobe and swaps the gear then closes it.
mind you I'm just speculating on this and am not certain how difficult it would be to do.

Next time someone does an interview they should ask when they will address these hardware issues a d/or if we can simply have a thing only for storage, no retainer but something new...

there was some mention of a wardrobe system they planned to introduce. I would like more information on that myself.

Well it would be great if we could have an inventory size like our retainers, but that would probably crash the server on the update. Easiest thing to do is give everyone 1 free retainer with HW.

Although people still request expanded armory chest.

You have more than they do, count up your inventory slots plus your armory slots. You have over 300 item slots in your character data just for the armory, each of those will take more or less exactly the same data as a standard inventory slot. All in all we probably have close to 600'inventory' slots in our player data if you include armory, key items, shards, crystals, currency, Triple Triad cards, minions, mounts companion settings, etc....

On an semi-related note, could we please have a few extra ring slots in our armory chest? I hate having to hit retainers to switch classes =\ Sure, accessories are shared across jobs, but only if they're all the same level. Right now, my NIN (60), BRD (50), SMN (60), SCH (60), WHM (51), BLM (51), MCH (34), DRK (31), PLD (60), and WAR (50) all use different ring sets because they are vastly different in level than the classes they'd normally share with. Only my MNK (50) and DRG (50) are currently able to share. I honestly haven't unlocked AST (-) just because I'd have nowhere to store the rings for the class <_<

For those counting, that's 22 rings for DoW/DoM. Throw in 4 more for DoL/DoH (which are all the same level right now for me), and you get 26 rings in 25 slots (not to mention my wedding ring of teleportation which puts it at 27).


[EDIT: Oh, slight mistake in the above (not that anyone cares) - just checked, and WAR IS sharing rings with MNK/DRG because rawr warrior smash! But I have two sets of rings for PLD, Vit and Str. I still use the Vit rings for very specific content where I'm just a vitality sponge - damage doesn't matter and threat isn't a problem, like OTing Faust in A1 (normal) or OTing in A4 (normal). They're also good for healing in PvP. Also, I still have my level 50 vit rings for when I get old FL in the FL roulette, not for WAR, so I really have 29 rings, but I've only been swapping out two. How do I store the other two? I just found that a few classes had one of their rings "accidentally" desynthed and will be one ringed angels whenever I get back to playing them.]

So, so, so much this...
