    Please allow us to add Primal Weapons to the Armoire.

    Hello,

    A simple request really, myself and many others enjoy collecting things and I think Primal weapons should be able to be stored in the armoire. I wouldn't purchase an extra retainer just to store them there, so SE wouldn't be losing money or anything. It would just be a quality of life feature.

    Thank you.

    Edit: obviously I would like more to be added, Primal weapons was just a start and example since there's a lot of them.

    There will always be issue with storage, its also unrealistic to just add primal weapons. If anything they should try making some furniture that you can store things in, a few mmos do this already...

    Mannequin to store a single full gear set
    Drawers/Wardrobes to store accessories and gear, 5 or so spaces
    Racks to store weapons, also 5 or so spaces

    Lets people store those glamors they want to save
    Adds a bit more importance to housing, which comes and goes at times
    And doesnt really diminish those away from buying retainers still, people will still be hasty, quick from a retain rather than taking the time to tp to house and such

    It doesn't matter if you call it a chest, wardrobe or mannequin it still requires server space to store that stuff and apparently the servers are at breaking point as it is. When I swap stuff from my character to my inventory one by one most of the time I get an error and Moogle is not even a 'full' server.

    The wardrobe actually requires only a fraction of the space that other kinds of inventory do. This is because the wardrobe ONLY keeps track of the type of item. Modifications to the item, such as dyes, glamours, and wear-and-tear, are not recorded (this is why you are warned when storing the item that such things will be lost, and that the item needs to be repaired to 100% before it is stored). Because it only stores the type of item, the item's identification number is the only thing that needs to be tracked. Also, since the wardrobe can only be accessed in very specific areas, like the inn, it doesn't have to be loaded from the server every time you change zones.

    Adding additional items to the wardrobe is probably the most low-impact way SE can increase our inventory.

    THAT SAID, the wardrobe is intended for a VERY specific purpose: allowing the user to store items that they can't obtain a second time. While it is true that many items in the wardrobe can now be obtained from the Calamity Salavager, back when they were first added to the wardrobe this was not the case. If you threw away your artifact armor, it was gone FOREVER. If you threw away your horse kabuto, it was gone FOREVER. This made players want to horde these one-shot items, eating up precious inventory space. To ease this, the low-impact wardrobe was added so that players wouldn't feel pressured to hang onto them.

    Primal Weapons, on the other hand, are NOT one-shot items. It may take some grinding to get the one you want, but if you throw it away, you can always grind again to get a new one. For this reason, I doubt primal weapons will ever be added to the wardrobe. The same goes for other items players worked hard for, like High Allagan gear. They may be hard to replace, but they're not IMPOSSIBLE to replace, like artifact gear and the event items used to be (and, in some cases, still are).

    Housing mannequins to show off gear sets from Alex, Coil etc etc could be a fantastic addition to the housing areas tbh, and would go some way to ease the space issue although I'm unsure if it would be easy or hard on current housing decoration resources

    they should just implement an archive system and be done with it... we all know why they wont give us more storage is because at some point people will be able to hire 40 retainers lol

    I just want to be able to put the augmented AF sets in there, for the love of rngesus they've been out since 2.3.

    We can put the AF sets in there, we can put dyeable items in there, so why the h- moogle can't we put the augmented AF sets in the armoire already?

    Augmented AF sets are easily replaceable, and therefore will likely never end up in the Wardrobe. Unless you frequently use them for glamours, just throw them away, and if you ever need one again, just buy the base AF armor from a Calamity Salvager and upgrade it again with a new Augmenting item.

    That is likely SE's stance on the matter, anyway. The wardrobe is only for items that are either irreplaceable, or were once irreplaceable but became replaceable at some point after they became storable in the wardrobe.

    As for folks arguing that a universal wardrobe should be allowed for the purposes of glamour - I don't totally disagree, but "universal" might be taking it a bit too far. Even as efficient as the wardrobe is in terms of storage, what you're asking for is a hash table for EVERY equipment item in the game, multiplied by EVERY player in the game. That adds up! That said, the current glamour system leaves an awful lot to be desired. I barely dabble in Glamour, and even I have three pages of a retainer filled with glamour armor pieces. Allowing a user a wardrobe-like storage for a hundred or so items of the user's choice shouldn't be out of the question.

    Square Enix should allow us to store one copy of every single piece of gear we have ever obtained in the Armoire, they can do it with incredible ease, but only for green, blue and purple gear with fixed stats, that would solve countless space and ordering issues!...

    I'm sure they would find out other ways to get more money if that was to decrease the number of hired retainers!...
