Retainers/inventory space

Niwashi...you da man.

To add to his post's merit, as I've said I have been using the retainers of alts I have to store items for one character, using the fc chest to trade back and forth (tedious beyond sanity). I craft (all classes), I use novelty gear and have multiple gear-sets for that purpose (on top of normal gear-sets for all of my jobs and the 11 DoL/DoH classes), and yes, I fish. Extensively. Oh, and I garden...theres a lot o' seeds...not to mention the multiple beast tribe currencies. I've barely gotten into original end-game with this character...

Six of my ten retainers are full, and I will have to move on to a seventh soon. I too have not yet gotten into HW, by the way...

As has been stated, it's clear SE intended for people to use as many jobs/classes as possible (any crafter knows that having all classes exponentially increases your ability to craft due to crossover abilities, any individual class will have a hard time crafting well at all). SE is obviously limiting the base game to get people into paying beyond base subscription, which is not cool by any means.

I understand there's a lot of speed players who don't see any of this (though they tend to miss huge portions of the game anyway), but if SE intended for us to skip most of the content in their game...well, that would just be ridiculous.

Intangible storage systems are really starting to grow on me, and there is no excuse not to implement them. I'd take an additional free retainer per expansion as well...but something's got to give.
