    Sorting Mog House possible?

    I dont k now what is involved in this but I thought it would be a pretty cool idea.

    You know how SE have made catergories for your Key Items - why not do something similar for you MOg House / Locker?

    Even better, make the customisable to us.

    For instance, I could have headings of:

    Red Mage Solo Gear
    Red Mage Party Gear
    Warrior Gear
    Quest Items
    Chest/Coffer Keys
    Synth Materials

    etc etc

    ANd then you could choose the convential view (all items listed) or a categorised version.

    Hey ho, as usual I prolly missed something out that makes this null and void, and its probably something to do with PS2 limitations -.-;;

    Re: Sorting Mog House

    I felt bad for you. none have replied :/

    But I find your idea interesting! :)

    Organizing gear for each job, and be able to transfer more then once piece at a time would be nice. I hate using 15 mins on changing gear cuz of this stupid lag.

      Re: Sorting Mog House

      I think it's mostly because it is a new and recent post.

      Give it time.

      Nice idea, but there would be so many categories and not all would be utilised (I dont keep every job's gear on my main character, I dont have that much space!)

      But nice idea, maybe not as needed now with the new update, you can scroll fast through your gear using Ctrl+(left or right arrow) for PC for example. Quick way to find your gear.

      Good to have an option for it though, as in you can chooose to sort it or not.

          I'm reminded everyday. cuz I got to switch jobs too often, and I always wish there was a way to make it go quicker.

              Not sure what "Pokemon Style boxes" are to be honest...

              But why not with categories? As I said, in the ideal world we would be able to customise the titles, but if that is too much work/resource why not be able to have some default category titles (again, as covered in the original post...)

              If they can do it with Key Items then why not Mog Safe?

                yeah kinda intersting....boy not many weird RPG fans in the room XD

                Let me expain: If you've ever in your lifetime played a Pokemon game(ok I'm weird...I like'em and it's great fun when I can't get anywhere near an FFXI machine) you'd know that you're spare characters are stored in PC boxes(like the mog safe) that can be renamed and made into custom catagiores(box1=plant pokemon) by soting them out. Personally I never do this since I'm not that much of a fanatic....

                What you seem to be propsing is something similar, but I think it'd be imposible due to the PS2 limits....

                  You're presumption was right - I have never touched a Pokemon game!

                  Although the way I envisaged it in my minds eye was pretty much like the way they have sorted Key Items.

                  ANd again, referring back to original posts, I did mention the whole PS2 limit thing.

                    Because Key Items are totally different from actual items, maybe?

                    Come to think of it, we already had a way of sorting our Mog Safe long before they organized Key Items. When you choose to auto-sort your Mog Safe, the items go into a pre-determined order, grouping them together by types (food together, weapons together, body armor together, etc), and then sort them inside those groups. If you think about it, that's what the new organization for Key Item has basically done.

                    I already manually group my items in the fashion described in the OP. My BST gear is grouped together, and my WAR gear is grouped together. When I switch jobs, I move the entire sub group in and out, so the groups of items stay together.

                    Now that we can "insert" using manual sort, it's a lot easier to keep items in the Mog Safe organized like that. Certainly, it shouldn't take any more effort to do this with manual sort than it would be to define the customizable categories and then add each item to one of them.

                      I know what you mean, but the problem there lies in when I wish to group something into a stack - I hit Auto and all of my "Custom" groups of armour etc suddenly gets thrown around.
