I'm making legitimate concerns. Why do people have to comment bait in a way that takes away from posts?

As bad as the inventory/glamour system is the post mostly reads like "I have poor inventory management skills" tbh

Oh just what we need. This comment is just such an easy target for the trolling masses on these forums to upvote. :|

You can't just tell people their diary is nice now when you have so many things stacked against you. I'm very saddened by this reply, and I think it should be deleted before it misconstrues the tone of my diary compliment. Please stop bullying me.

So wait, is this complaining about a lack of armoury chest space, or a lack of space for glams? I can't tell if this is a legitimate concern about not being able to have the space for Reaper gear, or just Yet Another General Complaint About Glam Plates.

I have gear for every job to 80 and I have no issues with armoury chest space. Sucks that you'd sooner deprive yourself of an opportunity to play a new job you're ostensibly interested in rather than actually try to address your inventory/hoarding issue, but SE is not exactly to blame for your choice here. If you cared enough, you could make this work.

There should also be more more outfit spaces beyond the fifteen that we already have, considering that there are a LOT of jobs in the game.

We were clearly never intended to have one individual plate for each class. And if the rollout rate on additional plates is anything to go by, I wouldn't expect to eventually have one for each class, either.

Regardless, this issue can be gotten around by not putting class-specific gear on your plates, but coming up with some more general sets that multiple classes can use.

It's a complaint about both, and why should I have to be restricted to general gear sets? I want to be able to have things match my jobs. -sigh- Why do I even try on these forums anymore. All people do is act negative to me. I'm not allowed to have any valid concern anymore. I've already been labeled as a target. Couldn't possibly post anything here anymore without being taken in a negative way.

I will probably only level Reaper and maybe just maybe play it if it has a lit rotation.
Wait that's not the topic?

Oh, poor inventory management? Listen boy, with friends we made a challenge. Who could shave the most out of their glamour dressing, retainers and inventory. That was before Zadnor.
We went from 400 to under 80 slots taken for the glamour dressing.
Inventory was shaved by half, apart for the weapons armory, all armor and accessories went under 10 slots taken. I'll have to shave again as I'm done with Zadnor.
All retainers were cleaned and one has 100 slots takens.

We figured that we were not using 80% of our inventory. There is no need for more glamour plate, I have all of them filled but only use 4-5 of them. We're not playing every jobs, I haven't touched Ninja, BLM, SMN, RDM, MNK, BRD and DNC since I leveled them to 80.

In short: Manage your inventory in a better way, it's not SQEX fault if you are stacking unused items you think you'll use later.

Because them giving us enough plates to have a separate one for each class isn't going to happen. And since you don't seem to have a "main" or are willing to pick favorites, this would be your next best option with regard to the plates.

I want to be able to have things match my jobs. -sigh-

Well, you're not going to be able to have that just with glamour plates. The limit has remained 15 plates for how long, now? Maybe they'd up it to 20 "soon", but I don't see it going much higher than that anytime soon, and that's still not going to be enough for 1 for each class.

So either you need to carry gear to manually glamour around (still quite doable; right now I'm still carrying around the level 80 AF sets for all of the level 80 combat classes in addition to all the gear I actually use, for instance), or you will just need to suck it up and deal somehow. Regardless, you electing not to play Reaper is a you problem, not a SE problem. Again, if you cared enough, you would find a way to resolve your problem somehow.
