Inventory space

It's also kind of amazing that maid and butler outfits AREN'T storable in the Armoire. This is exactly the kind of thing the Armoire was built for: equipment that can't be replaced, and that players would be reluctant to discard.

Armoire could be used to store any gear items if they extended it slightly to allow the condition of the gear to be retained. I don't really see any reason why we cannot take all our gear that we seldom wear or bring out to glamor onto something occasionally and put it in the Armoire. I don't see any balance issues since the worst thing that could happen is acquiring a duplicate, which we can already do by storing things on a retainer.

Glamour prisms - One is enough, we don't need to segregate by craft and rank.

Glamor prisms are crazy since you already have to have the right kind as well as the level. A major help would be to let higher level prisms work for all item levels below them, then you could keep just level 3/4 prisms for each craft to cover the majority of things.

Dyes - Let them be unlocked once, then usable forever.

Dyes are consumable, and I don't think that they should have infinite uses, which seems to be what you are implying here.

Glamour items - Implement a separate glamour catalogue that stores ID and appearance of items so we can ditch the original, that's much less data than also storing stats, HQ/NQ status, condition, materia and spiritbonding information >_>

Simply open up the Armoire to include the spirit bond level and condition of the piece of gear and let us store any gear we like in it. Reset the dye/glamour of the piece, but lock the piece in the armoire for 24 hours to prevent people abusing this as a way to remove dye/glamour.

The last remaining bastion of bloat would then be crafting mats. But you'd probably have two empty retainers for those by then, so hey!

I see these less of an issue since as you say you'll have more retainer space already, and a lot of the easier materials can be purchased through vendors already, so storing them is a convenience, and part of the inventory management metagame...
