Trading between alts

[The_NPC]

Retainer sharing between alts in the same sever hub sounds like my fav solution posted so far solution, or haveing a box with low inverntory space that can only be used in Inn rooms (like a some "inter-dimensional footlocker" near the bed) at lest I could finnally grab all the stuff I left behind in my old FC, a FC thats my alts sole-exsistence revolves around holding on to (the FC not the items left behind in the FC chest)

Because if they did allow such a thing, demand for paid retainers would plummet.

This is basically the primary reason imo

I'm feelin' it.

I would love to see a way to trade between alts - if they were worried about RMT, they could restrict the trading of gil between alts and only allow items.
I hate to endorse this, and do so begrudgingly, but if they are so worried about people not purchasing retainers, then make purchased retainers shared on the account.

I have 5 characters on Balmung. My main there owns a small FC and we simply use the FC chest to do transfers of gil and items. Sure it's not ideal if you want to belong to a large free company but i have a few friends who belong and we have fun.

Trading shouldn't be an issue in game though and SE really needs to make it's so that is possible both for shared housing and friends lists.

Trading/shared housing I'm cool with.... Friend lists though... I'd like to keep that separate (or atleast have them function properly! haha)

Because you don’t need alts, ever? Every class can be done on one character.

how dare someone try a new class/race.the horror

Unsubbed for well over a year due to being alt unfriendly. Came back because I spaced the reason I unsubbed in the first place. I won't this time.

I can see nothing has changed. I know there is work arounds for some of this, but NOT options I like. It's just dumb, to not have EASY trading between your alts, period.

If RMT is the real reason, well it's dumb too. Still get RMT messages in game still, AND this is the ONLY mmorpg where I see it.

Enix - You don't need alts, you can do it all on one char.

Me - So, you don't want me to play another class, and you want me to GRIND jobs rather than quest. (really, you don't want us to play other jobs either)

Who ever thought that would be FUN? Some might like to grind, but it's got to be God Awful Boring at times. Just saying.
