Final Fantasy XIVfans are growing increasingly frustrated with the game’s flawed storage system. There are thousands of items in the vast MMO set in theFinal Fantasyuniverse, making it quite a feat to find storage for all of them. Items can be stored across several storage locations and items, including retainers and guild chests.
One of these storage solutions is the armoire, which has unlimited storage but very limited usage. According to Reddit userBloodclaw_Talon, the armoire situation is “starting to get out of hand.” More specifically, they write thatthe armoire should be expanded to include more itemslike Moogle Treasure Trove rewards.
Fans Agree It’s Time To Expand The FFXIV Armoire
There Aren’t Enough Storage Solutions For All These Items
At the moment, the armoire can only be used tostore limited-time special items, like seasonal event rewards, one-off costumes and armor, and other specific cases. It’s largely used for unique items that can’t be stacked.
As the Redditor points out, though, there should also be a tab for players to store items acquired from the Mog-Tome event, like the earrings shown in their image.Each single earring takes up a separate slot in the inventory,making it difficult for anyone who wants to collect all the rewards.
An easy way to tell if you can store an item in the armoire is to look for the small icon on the top right of the item’s description.
The comments agree with the Redditor and point out that there are restrictions even within the armoire’s limited storage allowances. Artifact armor, for instance, can only be placed into storage if it’s at least level 50.
Reddit userZiHasBigDumwrites that “all lv 1 items with no stats, along with all artifact armor, should also go in there,” adding thatonly allowing high-level ones into the storage is “ridiculous.”
Storage Is Becoming A Real Problem For FFXIV Players
The Armoire Rules Are “Baffling,” Say Fans
AsFFXIVgrows and expands its scope, it’ll continue adding more and more items. With storagealready an issue for many, the problem will only continue to get worse over time. At the very least, this Reddit thread shows thatSquare Enix should consider revising its rules about what can and can’t be placed into the infinite storage of the armoire.
Players should be able to add any event and limited items to the storage. Reddit userDragon_Avalonnotes, “it would make sense” for items like the Moogle reward earrings and artifact armors to go in the armoire, since “they’re an event only reward item, much like other event only glamour gear pieces.“It’s simply “baffling that they aren’t allowed in there,“they state.
Square Enix has updated the rules around storage in the past, adding cash shop items to the allowable list of armoire items in 2023. With any luck, the positivesteps the dev team has been takingto improve theFinal Fantasy XIVexperience for players will include improved storage options.
