    Glamour dresser expansion ?

    I was a little bit surprised that Glamour dresser size wasn't increased with the new expansion .
    My dresser has been full for a long time now, it's such a pain to constantly manage the limited space,and store stuff on retainers. We constantly get new gear sets and glamour sets but no space to store them.
    Inventory management is a nightmare ! It's my least favorite thing about this game , I don't even know how crafters/gatherers cope.
    But i don't even want to think about what it takes to revamp it, however for the Twelves sake ...Increase the size of the glam dresser please !
    I don't even understand why there is a limit, I should be able to store every gear set in the game !

    I still question their reasons for why they are incapable of adding a glamour log.

    We know they are capable of adding new systems to the game as seen with Lord of Verminion and Mahjong.

    We also know that items can be used to trigger achievements, that achievements can generate items and that there are items that generate multiple other items. All of these are systems that could have been used for a more ham-fisted implementation for glamour logs.

    Edit this cause i hit my quota for today.
    That's what they could use the achievement for. And maybe some behind the scenes behaviour, to prevent players from scrapping items. Use achievement to look at what is obtained -> generate items from that achievement into an inaccessible inventory and apply glamour to equipment -> delete items.

    Yeah not exactly pretty but it gets the job done.

    If you really want to be optimistic, you could view the Facewear implementation as the first baby steps towards an idealized glamour "log." It's doing basically everything you want out of the idea. It's a proof of concept.

    But, given the time/effort investment just to get this far, wouldn't be expecting a full rollout any time this decade.
