Re: Retainer inventories ... back in ARR I had several retainers full of crafting materials. For the most part, those materials got scrapped during HW, when I made the push to get all of the leveling and housing recipes done once. After that, I was able to drop 98% of ARR’s materials (because I was not crafting anything that used them) and was able to drop down to 2 retainers for materials : one to hold basic HW materials, one to hold special stuff (which was stuff like crafted stuff for the FC Workshop, or materials available only from airships).

With SB, I’m able to do the same so far. Except, right now, there isn’t anything that falls under the “special stuff” category I need to hold onto, so everything’s on one retainer, even the FC3’s and Mastercraft Demimateria.

Oh, unless its a material I’m planning on using in the near future, I don’t hold on to any fish, at all. That helps, somewhat, to keep things in one retainer or so.
