Friends and myself are avid crafters and try to be as self sustainable as possible, so we will have our retainers go off for resources while we get others, or are too tired gather otherwise. Originally, we thought maybe some remote retainer control would be nice to send them on ventures even when not logged on, but this morning the idea developed in our Discord on my end.

What about having the option to send retainers on multiple, back to back gathering ventures? Only the gathering ventures are necessary, and it allows for them to only focus on the one material for multiple hours at a time instead of just one, where you have to be vigilant and get to a summoning bell just to send them off again.

I thought of the complications of the vaguer ideas, and they led into this. Since I haven't seen anything suggested as of yet (at least in English forums), I figured I would do my part to place it here in the hopes that it be added to the ideas list for the QOL of the game.
