Thread: More Retainer and Character Inventory space in 5.0?

Does SE have any plans on increasing the inventory space on our Retainers/Armory Chest/Character Inventory space/Saddlebag?

Collecting all these glamour gear for all jobs is taking up so much space plus all the crafting mats. It would be great if we got more space for 5.0

Considering they increased Armoury Chest space in 4.0 because we got new jobs, I'd expect the same thing to happen again. Personal inventory not so sure about, but the Saddlebag seems like the easiest thing to increase but obviously that has its own limitations. Retainers who knows, I'd like more inventory space on current ones as opposed to more free retainers but if they give us more then is better then nothing. The Dresser is expected to get some improvements so that should be the main thing for your glamour stuff.

Definitely need more Armory Chest space. Belts are the only gear category that have no visual. Though I would like to have visible belts, at least when wearing simpler body and pants, It seems to me rolling the belt stats into body pieces and eliminating belts as items might be one way to free up inventory.

Since my retainers are holding a lot of stuff I would like to put in the glamour dresser increasing the Glamour Dresser would be great.

Things they can do to help with space:

* Turn the "Off-hand" section of the Armoury Chest into "Tools" section. Since currently, it's literally just used for DoH/DoL off-hand tools and PLD shields (Back in ARR it was also used for CNJ/WHM and THM/BLM shields, but they've since scrapped the notion of those jobs using 1h + shield). This would allow you to fill this section with all your DoH/DoL tools, freeing a bunch of space in the "Main Hand" section to consist of all your DoW/DoM weapons.

* Allow more things to be put into the Armoire. Let us put level 60 Antiquated gear in there (Also, RDM, SAM and BLU starter gear). Let us put Relics in there (Zodiac weapons, Anima weapons, Eureka weapons and armour). Let us put gear obtained through MSQ in there (Scion Adventurer's gear and Scion Traveller's gear)

* Consolidate Rings down to a single item slot. Not only is this a pain when gearing (Especially as everything is Unique so you can't even buy 2x Tome rings to fully equip yourself), but it takes up a TON of room. Literally Rings are the section of my Armoury Chest that overflows the most, due to needing 2x every ring in there... (With Main Hand being the secondary concern due to having literally one unique MH item per class in the game)

* Consolidate fishing baits down to a reasonable amount. In lieu of a tacklebox... The amount of room taken up by simply keeping fishing bait around (Especially since not all baits can just be bought from a vendor, some have to be crafted) is absurd.

* Make Relic specific items go into the "Key Items" section. As someone who's working on Zodiac, Anima and Eureka weapons for all jobs, a lot of my inventory is full of all the knick-knacks that are only relevant for Relic quests. Meanwhile, I have all of like 5-6 things in my "Key Items" section that appears to be equivalent in size to my actual inventory...

It would also be REALLY helpful if the glam dresser was a personal housing item. As is, I never use the inn so I have to go out of the way to use the glam dresser to "save" my equipment. And if I'm in Kugane and I run out of glamour prisms at the dresser or I need to get some dye, it's a long run to the Market Board, which is a frustrating way to handle inventory management.

And I do wish they'd give us a 3rd retainer for free, there's 3 gathering jobs for the retainers to do, so it's really awkward just having 2.

It would be nice to at least hang more ring slots. We have to wear two at all times, but they get the same amount of armory space as everything else. I can't even clear mine out at all because every single ring is in a gear set.
