    All that proves is they have a reward/incentive problem.



    If you cant manage your inventory, thats on you. If someone hasnt organized their inventory since they started and then 70 levels later "find they are bogged down" then thats their own fault. Even crafters shouldnt have a problem with all the storage, unless they are trying to level all DoH and DoL jobs in tandum, then, again, that's a problem of their own making. I only leveled one DoL job and max 2 DoH jobs at one time.

    To address the gear, they have added the glamor plates and increased the armory storage and still, manage your crap. At the worst, before Stormblood launched, I had both retainers completely full of gear, cause thats something i do hoard. But I solved my problem by actually going through it all and asking myself "why do i still have this hat/pants/chest? When was the last time i even used it for glamor? Where did i get it? If i decide i really want it again, i can do unsynced runs of X dungeon until it drops." If they have any problem its an item bloat problem. So much useless, pointless, crap that "cloggs" up your slots.

    If the lockboxes are that much a problem (and from what I have seen from the OP, worthless) then...

    Discard them? One less stress in your playtime gone.

    I know, it is still a flaw of the game though, it should be improved. You are reflecting there is a flaw when there is so much inventory bloat the only solution is to toss, and that is not fair I have to miss out on mount and such because of said flaws.

    Because you have to throw them all away before you get the reward you want? do you just like to hear yourself complaining?

    The OP hated Eureka. It's laughable that he/she is spending so much time there they are having a problem with lockboxes.

    This is still off the point though, it does not matter if you did not say anything about exaggeration, keep in mind what you did say
    So no one can really understand the problem unless they have all craft/gather jobs maxed out to level cap AND have 1000+ lockboxes saved up.

    Got it.

    A good solution to Lockboxes would be to make their trade for Gil on NPC decent because right now many players prefer to delete them than going through the hassle of opening them. But that would bring other issues because of their own loot table. It's like they cornered themselves.

    Ya but, keep in mind how many some went though to get a mount, 1000+ without a mount? so this conflicts with the idea they did not expect people to gather mass amounts.

    I got about 1700 getting to level 20.. i mean.. its too much

    I got 8 mounts in less than 3k boxes. It seems fairly common (for a supposed to be rare mount) to me.

    I'll admit I've not read all of this thread's pages because it was starting to get heated, but maybe you can limit yourself? Possibly keep two or three stacks of boxes to hold onto in case they add more items and open any you get after those? No massive loss of space and you can npc everything, since the anemos gear is not worth a sell slot on your retainer, and just keep the materia to toss onto the market board.
