Baffled that people will defend 2 retainers max after 3 expansions.

You as a crafter are perfectly fine having to go out and gather every time you need to make anything, then throw out the excess mats you gathered after, then go gather more when you need the same again, constantly pruning and not allowed to hold too many totems or raid currencies or "might be handy" items, while a "premium sub" user can basically store any useful mat they like in the game, keeping their army of retainers on constant ventures to stockpile stacks of each. They want to try the "I made that VI" achievement, make a glamour, gear an alt class, make a sub, make a friend or FC member an item, they can do it within the minute by simply grabbing the mats.

Up to SB you could enjoy this too, but now its become a premium sub privilage only you're defending it as great and happily off gathering things you threw out last week, waiting for timed nodes again and cursing at the mb for only selling stacks of 99 at high price.

We should have got a 3rd free retainer by now.
