    You are misunderstanding WHY the dev's are saying what they are about items. Its not that the game has too many items, its that they cannot increase inventory space due to the way the system writes your inventory to a save state frequently. These are 2 different things. Reducing the number of items would not help this.

    Yes it does because its less items we need to hold to craft. Also I know that is the real issue and I know they need to fix that coding because of the lag that makes, but if they want to stick with it for whatever reason, we NEED LESS ITEMS to deal with.

    Except do you really need to hold on to items you only need small quantites of very infrequently? Wehns the last time you used a yew branch or a shard of obsidian?

    Why don't they put 90% of this casual mats on vendor. Like they did when they added housing vendors. I am not positive but I think you can craft most of 1-20 from the vendors. If they want us to earn these vendors through a craft/msq/some trial. Their has to be some reasonable ground. I generally don't keep quick gather mats. But this game also has a lot of shitty timers.

    A lot of gear could be locked behind some vendor in another way. We all agree they aren't as skilled as other dev teams to probably do a glamour properly. Hell people run primals and gets 100s of tokens. While shitty an achievement completed "Crystal Tower 100 times" unlocks a vendor. Probably at the start of when ilvl is basically hunt gear. It isn't a great fix but it works inside the game.

    Anyone has seen these forums knows your stance on SE. But they could sure do a lot of other stuff. They could make some compromises inside the game as is. The only people who have to make compromise right now are players spend time doing it a second time, pay someone, pay retainer to get it(also timed), pay retainer to hold it. As we all know one side is pro SE and the other isn't. I have seen very little give on their side as they lined pockets for years.

    If we were wishing that fish had wings. An instanced house with built in account storage. That data wouldn't have to be loaded till you entered. You could share items among alts. Everyone gets some sort of personal space.

    OP doesn't want to admit they're a hoarder. You're what statisticians call an outlier, an extreme case of somebody who buys 6 retainers and still needs a ton of space. Your extreme hoarding, as well as anyone else, isn't going to justify the cost of reorganizing the entire inventory system just because you can't manage your inventory. The only thing I can agree with is either implement a WoWesque transmog system or let us store Mogstation and special deal items in the Armoire which is really underutilized at the moment.

    I manage my inventory just fine, have you ever did crafting favors or crafted the top end things? I know you couldn't since 4.0 + since your not 70 in anything crafting related. Having 2 battle classes at 70 does not give you insight on how much inventory this game demands. Do you know what it is like needing 2-4 trades to do one crafting favor? or craft 1-3 hours at a time trying to HQ top end materials for top end products? Did you even know the current meta is 97 ish steps? Do you even know why crafting takes so much inventory because of the muti-step process?

    Once again using the lodestone as a weapon I see. You know with how often you are making threads just to complain about something I have to wonder if you really even enjoy this game or are just causing trouble for the sake of causing trouble. You claim people are attacking you and then you go out of your way to be aggressive to anyone who disagrees with you... Like the example above. Either stop using the lodestone as a weapon or post your legit lodestone and not just screenshots of your supposed levels.

    To the actual topic at hand, the inventory system works well enough for what it is. You have two free retainers to work with and if they're full on glamour how is that SE's issue, when they are 175 slots. Thats more than enough room for rarer items for crafting, whatever glamour items you truly wish to keep and the like. Would more inventory be nice? Sure, it would be, however they already said they will look into it further and add more based off what they find. Give them time, this expansion is still relatively fresh.

    I was an omnicrafter in 3.x and never needed more then two retainers. I'd gather and craft everything myself. Also if you're going to make an argument about inventory the number of steps in a craft is irrelevant. You only need at most 5 finished ingredients, maybe 7 per craft and if you're turning in 2 or 5 finished products at a time you still don't need 8 retainers worth of materials if you manage right. If you're going to use my Lodestone against me don't leave an opening for counterattack, Princess.
