    My extremely curious side of me wishes there was a compilation thread where all the people with at least over five retainers post pictures of whatever the hell they're packing so bad in those retainers.

    Like, I'm legit curious. I know about token bloats and mat bloat and hell even glam bloat (that one being the most popular) but I'm just super curious about the craft mats needing more than 2 or 3 retainers.

If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.

    Well storing any and all crafting materials takes up a lot of space my friend. As I said in my post I am a packrat and I hold on a lot of things gear is I can use it for other jobs in if not probly for crafting or for the most Part glamor. Now I just might do that what you suggested create a thread I post pictures of all the stuff in all my retainer's inventory.

    You're not a packrat, you're a compulsive hoarder, I bet you don't even need half of those spaces if you actually went through and managed it all better.

    Speaking for myself as a 4* omnicrafter with all but 3 DoW at max level, I have 6 retainers (2 base 4 extra) and I've got about 80 spaces spare on each of them. My inventory is never full, my saddlebag is never full, my armoury chest is never full, my glamour dresser is never full. Truth be told I could condense the retainers down into 3 if I really wanted, but I use them for a steady stream of materials all the time.

    From what I've seen most people who complain about inventory space use the glamour/materials/tokens excuse. News flash, you do not need to hold on to those Gordian Bolts or those Cobalt Ingots. You need to regularly have a cleanse of glamour you can easily replace (things you can buy with tomes/marks/etc, anything you can reclaim from a Calamity Salvager). Frankly you need to manage yourself better. There are claims our current inventory space isn't enough, yet I challenge anyone who has more than the standard free retainers to come forward and show me exactly why you are short on space, it just shouldn't happen.

    I probably didn't sit well sure I didn't I do have free spots both in my inventory and in my retainers. One reason why I store all that stuff is if I were to drop it all as you suggested or as it appears as you suggested that means I would have to go back and get all that stuff again if I was to get the items related to those mats items in etcetera. But having them with me if it's some point I decide to make this item or get this item I'll already have at least some of the requisite items already in hand. You can call it hoarding if you want and I suppose it is but why I get rid of something if you might use later on specially it's a hard to get.

    Eh, I have 3 extra retainers and they're almost all full (5 total). Mostly with gear (currently have 200/200 glamour dresser) I don't want to re-farm but a LOT of them are currencies I don't want to have to farm again. Currencies. . . despite having a currency tab that SE refuses to update.

    Every new raid is 7 extra currencies in normal, more on savage, plus EX totems. This game has so much item bloat it's insane.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Sounds like you skim-bought your subscription. Skim as in skimmed all the information pertaining your sub, the duration at which you'd be charged, the retainers you'd be chardged and finally even that companion app.

    It is as sad as it is hilarious. This is not even a "I clicked yes once" by accident kind of thing, especially considering the amount of confirmation pages you go through to buy all these.

    Slow down next time.

    Did you seriously not check the final price of your purchase before smashing the confirm button? I'm pretty sure kids even know the final cost of what they're buying.

    Out of darkness, light. Ouf of silence, song. Ouf of the sun´s death, the birth of each year. Out of cold, fire. Out of death, life. Out of fear, courage to see the day. (Elizabeth Moon - The Deed of Paksenarrion)
