Inventory space

[Arcell]

In all honesty? Yeah, I probably would. I'm fairly tired of this attitude they've been taking with this game. Nothing they release ever works properly. All we ever hear about is the costs to implement, and how shitty a server structure is. I'm tired of excuses. One of the reasons this was asked for in the first place was the seasonal items. I want a stable, finished, implementation. Perhaps people may not agree with my stance, and that's alright but i'm tired of these half-assed unfinished services.

This isn't something being half-assed though. It's them being cautious about potential bugs and giving us what they can for now while they fix that one part of the functionality. As I said, for any other system I'd agree with you but we're talking about storage here. Some now and more later is better than none until later.

A materia tab would be great as long as they keep materia so it requires inventory slots. I think what a lot of people want is for it to be like how crystals are now but then we'd end up with too much hoarding. Since the server merge, most materia prices have plummeted. There is a large disparity between prices of the higher tier materia and ones with lower quality stats (within the same quality ie. +9 enmity rage IV materia is dirt cheap while +12 are non-existent or absurd prices). This problem would only increase if materia didn't consume inventory slots.

Another way to alleviate inventory space & management issues would be to let us purchase more retainers. I believe the original plan around launch was to allow purchasing of retainers through the subscription service, something like $1 per retainer. In my ~3 years of XI I had at least 2 mules at all times and at one point I was up to 4 (for several months, not just for mog bonanza :P). I hate to jump on the "add this from XI" bandwagon, but I think this would be a reasonable option for FFXIV too.

I actually didn't like when they gave us the free inventory slots, so I was happy when I saw that it was a temporary measure.

My reason is that there should've been some kind of quest or additional content in order for us to earn that inventory space, rather than have it just given to us.

I wouldn't mind a quest like the gobbiebags to give us more inventory space, but I don't like that they're taking it away. Although I'll admit that 100 slots is better than 30 slots like some games give though.

You mean like XI .. where you get the quest then have to deal with crafters' price-gouging? Nothing 'earned' about that method of obtaining more slots. it requires no skill other than the ability to buy gil.

No thanks, we don't need more crafter dependency.

I never said anything about crafter dependency.

you guys do understand it's event items coming in w/e patch.
Say in 1.22 they release a event - you wont be able to store items in 1.22 but most likely in later 1.22a or 1.23 etc. They just need to check to make sure it wont cause any issue.

Although they should test before the event but it doesn't mean we can't store all the event items, only the upcoming ones for temporary.

Anyways I posted translation on stuff that kind of sucks from JP Rep today, might get some people angry lol.

im pro for more crafter dependency

[Visch]

I feel like I have way too much inventory, please take some of it away SE.

Maybe like 30 slots and then make us do goblin based quest to get more.

Not sure why we just don't take away an entire retainer while we're at it. (FREE UP THE WARDS DUHHH)

I have brought forth some more information for you guys!

Will Ifrit/Moogle/Garuda weapons and unique/untradable gear from instanced raids be storable?

The unique/untradable storage box is generally reserved for items that can only be obtained through events and other gear that cannot be obtained more than once. As such, items such as Ifrit weapons and Moogle weapons can be obtained more than once, and therefore aren’t storable.

We will have a Topics article regarding the item storage box soon, so please hang on for more details.
