Inventory being problematic!

[Fynlar]

I have all 60s and I have no issue with space. Figure out what you don't need; the game is so incredibly generous when it comes to inventory space that I can only think many of you have not actually played many other games like this one

If you have all 24 jobs at 60, and having BASIC gear with them, you need at least 288 slots to depost their gear. It's 12 slots x 24 jobs (it's actually slightly higher because crafters have both MH and OH and RIGHT NOW eso gear is job locked).
One retainer has 175 slots for a total of 350 slots. 350-288=62. This is the space remaining in your retainer.

However you have the armory so part of this issue is simplified and actually good, with essentially 25 slots for each piece of gear and essentially covering the basic equipment on every job. FOR NOW.

If in the next expansion we'll get 3 more jobs, we'll have space only for 1 more into our armory while the other 2 will be set into the retainer (of course that is if we don't get space still). Then another expansion comes out, 3 more jobs, and more equipment will be stashed into the two retainers we (might) have at that time. On the long run, we'll be forced to buy at least one more.

In addition, I'm being generous with the info and pretending that you never have two gear of the same kind. Afterall isn't it common to keep part of your gear with you to level up other jobs? Isn't it common to keep more gear for the glamour? Sure your armory can keep all of your 24 jobs at bay with ease, but i'm 100000% sure that you also keep other things into your retainer that's not strictly gear.

As of now, the inventory space is more of a nuisance than a real issue, but if SE doesn't add more space soon enough (which is a high possibility, knowing how the shop is going rampant)) our armory space won't be enough and we'll have to start clogging the two retainers we have with extra armor that we don't use.

Sure right now the game looks generous, but I bet that you won't say the same in a few years...and I'm sure of it!

PS: I hope I counted the number of jobs correctly.

BASIC gear don't need inventory space, because everything still find space in the armory chest.
And the only one where the space will run out with more jobs is the weapon categorie (i hope they increase the armory chest before that).
In all the other categories is still enough space, thanks to some classes sharing gears.


armory chest update? yes
glamour catalogue (where you can choose a gear that you once owned)? why not
free 3rd retainer? not neccessary if SE do the other 2 things.

Ultimately, a glamour catalogue would be the ideal solution. As long as SE is capitalising on people hiring extra retainers, I'm afraid they're in no hurry to find a way to let us store glamour items for free. =/
