Glamour dressers in housing

[vampiregirl663]

First, I want to thank SE for announcing we're finally going to get Mog station items in the armoire. That will help with glamour dresser space so much! Now, it would be really awesome if I could have a glamour dresser in my personal or FC house/room. While I've figured out the fastest way to get to an inn room so I can get to a dresser, it'd be much nicer to allow them in personal/FC housing. Even if you only allowed it in personal houses or FC rooms as a start, that would be nice. Thank you SE team for all you do, let's keep making those exciting QoL adjustments! \0/

Thought you were Chloe for a second.

Want this too. The entire reason that my GC is flames is because the squadron command room has a dresser in it. Would much rather be able to us one in my house.

Wow, I hadn't thought of this. I usually used the aetheryte to go to Adventurer's Guild then up to the Quicksand. I'll have to use this so I don't have to walk too far. Thanks for the tip!

From what I got in a similar thread a few weeks ago, it's a problem of only being available on solo instancied zones, like inn's rooms and your Grand Company Squadron HQ. I don't remember the details, but from what I got, it's a technical problem.

Technically they aren't instanced, they just don't network players to each other, only the party list still gets information if you are in the same zone.

The reason there is no dresser in housing areas is because there was a technical issue if the dresser was moved while it was being used by another player. I don't know where the "the server crashes if two players use it at the same time" thing came from, but Yoshi never said that. Regardless, the reason hasn't been a problem for a while now, because the game no longer lets you move furniture that is being used.

Yeah they can just place it at our workshops... at least for an FC thats an acceptable workaround.

If there's still technical issues in having it be an interactable furnishing, then they should make a separate room for it like the FC workshop/private chambers are. Except make it available for private houses too.

Y: In terms of having a furnishing item… there’s a scary amount of item data connected to it. Something like a glamour dresser has a few hundred items associated with it. With furnishing items, you can move it around, or someone else can move it around… it’s very dangerous and risky and very unstable to have an item like that for you to place in your own personal housing.

I’m sure with the convenience of moving around normal furnishings, or having retainers available, or having the ability to access market boards, it’s logical to think, “why can’t we have it as an item?” but the engineering behind that, having the items taken out, but suddenly not having it there, or having other people affect the location of the dresser…. we have to be very careful in working on that. That’s why we can’t just have it available as a furnishing item or something that can be readily placed.

That is from an article from 6 years ago.

If this is true then hopefully it's in the works.

At this stage nothing has changed. Last few attempts caused server crashes.
