Idea: Glamour Catalog

[Evangela]

Once we obtain a new unique-untradable gear, it will be added to our personal Glamour Catalog so we can glamour everything we used to own, without having to carry them around or keeping it somewhere in our limited inventory & retainer spaces, even if we lost the gear, it will be in the catalog forever.

That would be soo nice
It would hurt the market if you were able to put it into the catalouge without binding it, so I'd be fine with that. If I can't resell it, that's okay. Just no more carrying hundreds and hundreds of outfit pieces around.

The idea is nice, mind you, I would be for it but it's just too big of a step from what we have been doing thus far.

Not only that, You could just farm every piece of gear from every dungeon, and never have to do it again(bad). That's not very MMO at all, grinding is pretty fun and time consuming.

grinding is pretty fun

heh

I support this idea for the 20th time, almost every modern MMO supports a system like this. Even WildStar has it, cross-character no less.

Realistically, how often do people redo content AFTER they already got the gear they like but maybe threw it away months later? How often does such a situation actually happen? How often do people actually throw away gear they spend so much time on obtaining on?
We grind to get it once (which takes ages and hundreds of runs anyway until you have full sets), then we usually put it on a retainer and store 175 pieces of clothing there per retainer, so we can glamour freely. All the catalouge would do is free up that space.
The catalgoue is solely for glamours. It's not like the actual gear is in there - meaning if you start leveling a new class, you still need to gather any gear you want to wear again.

I like the Idea.
Glamour shouldn't waste any normal inventory slot.

My guess is they are going to make attach this feature to the retainer or make it a inn/housing feature. They may have issues with it being directly attached to our character (or however the excuse goes).

They could design also it so we need to use a glamour prism to register pieces to the Log. That way the piece would be bound to the user once it is registered (no selling it back once used). I'd imagine that would give the economy a temporary boost too, and give a use for all of those lvl 52-60 crafted gear pieces.

and while we're on the topic of glamours, when are they going to ease up on the glamour restrictions?

i would kill for the system GW2/Rift/DCUO have :_(

This is needed.

This could also actually increase the gil spent on glamor overall. If I had access to every gear I owned to glamor at a click of a button, I would be pretty much inclined to change my glamor more often = creating or buying more glamor catalysts. Other than having to figure out which retainer I stored it in...

Yoshi touched on this a while back and agrees that it would be a nice feature, but with how often game saves char data, it would add a fair bit of data to each character as to what they've unlocked and haven't. He did say however that if need be, they may save the data on client side, but then that also runs into issues for ps3/4 players since their save data can only be so large.
