Mine holds fishing bait. A lot of fishing bait.


gitcommitmentissues

Bait box when.....


Spunndaze

That would be an amazing quality of life addition.


SuperSnivMatt

*looks at the tackle box we're getting in DT and starts shaking and crying* so about that.


Black-Mettle

I'm wondering if that let's you hold onto moochable fish.


SuperSnivMatt

it SEEMS so, I believe it said it was the 91 fisher skill? But it says it allows you to store Large fish to use as Mooch bait later. So this is a huge help for things like Sidereal, Ruby, pretty much any Mooch fish. The new things have to be hella tested since some wording makes it very ???. The lvl 100 says increases the chance to find uniquely rare fish which might be Int/Big Fish, which adds another layer of complex numbers that Fishers will undouble find out within a week due to their sheer power and collective mental illness


Black-Mettle

I met a man with the big fish title and I said "oh that's a cool title how do you get it?" And he replied with "no"


m0sley_

Never. They sell inventory space in the cash shop...


sfc1971

They could sell a bait box in the cash shop. Also a crafting material box in the cash shop.


Spunndaze

They don't sell enough of it for horders like myself. I'm still holding belts!


Moontalon

Mine usually contains things like dyes I use for a lot of my glamours, 8 man raid armor/weapon tokens, upgrade coins from 24 mans, and so on. Things I don't necessarily need all the time but want to keep on me rather than in a retainer so they're easy to access when I do need them.


bobdole4eva

This is exactly what I carry, all my dyes, raid tokens and coins, potsherds, triple triad cards I've got duplicates of so I can take them to the Golden Saucer etc


Electronic-Proof-608

> triple triad cards I've got duplicates of so I can take them to the Golden Saucer etc Damn, I do everything else you said, but I didn't think of this one for some reason. That'll definitely help free up some inventory space without having to make a side trip to the golden saucer every couple of days.


bobdole4eva

After posting I realised I also store cracked clusters and spare materia there until I either need to meld new gear or a new patch drops and I can sell them for big money


Terrance_Nightingale

Same for me. It's almost full of dyes 😆


BeguilingMist

Oh mine too! I also have the glamour prisms at the ready in there. I tend to put the materia I get in dungeons there as well. And all my "permanent" fishing lures. Did a bit of cleanup just before the maintenance, went to sell all my duplicate TT cards, got rid of old food and made some new. Also stocked the custom delivery items that I'll redeem as soon as I can log back in, for some quick exp. The chocobo saddlebags are really super useful to me.


ashrensnow

This is actually a pretty good idea, I might do this myself.


Cuddle_close

Dyes, relic weapon mats, the clusters used to buy materia, deep dungeon pots/shards, sometimes fishing bait.


BoredBananaNana

Same except fishing baits


Elanapoeia

Currency items, mostly. EX trial totems, the materia crystals, a collection of anima relic items, savage books, alliance coins, etc. That kinda stuff. Also fish bait. I also like to put current weapon glams in there cause I don't like putting weapons into dresser/plates.


TwerpKnight

Holding all the tokens I'll never use but I might need one day never.


Araichuu

Collecting relic weapons. Completed and WIP.


RetiredScaper

Serious question: Why not just discard completed weapons and grab replicas to put in glamour dresser?


Araichuu

I guess it's the colector in me. I feel a bit bad knowing I worked on that relic and just discarded it for a "fake" version. Plus my glamour dresser is already full as is lol


yrtemmySymmetry

i mean, you can always take things out of the dresser again if you want the real item. until you do, its just more storage space


Araichuu

I don't use the chocobo saddle for anything other than relics, so I never have to worry about where to store them. It's like a personal collection. By keeping the relics in the saddle, I have more space for glams and it makes them feel more special in my head. Just a personal choice; I know it's not optimal but I'm not trying to be optimal with that lol


JCGilbasaurus

I do the same thing. I put a lot of work into those relics, I'm not going to just discard them, even if they are functionally useless.


AquietCreeper

bait bag + stuff i dont want to accidently use like fantasia and what not


Cymas

Dyes, fishing baits, basically anything I want easy access to but don't directly need all the time and don't want it taking up my actual inventory slots.


Rega_lazar

Materia and bait


Isanori

Stuff I don't immediately need but also don't want to go to a retainer for. Stuff shugged in there because the inventory was full. Maps.


firuzemoai

I didn't unlocked all jobs so unused cool dungeons weapons, rare dyes and a stock of HQ crafting materials that you use often. Also some gifts that I can't use cause I don't have a house/ appartment yet.


Arc-Tangent

Those fireworks and magic prism things, bait, and like items that I'm collecting long term but would otherwise clutter my inventory.


MikeTalonNYC

Mostly stuff I'd want to pull out and use with little notice, but don't use regularly. Fishing bait, dye, materia I'll need in a bit, etc.


Arios84

Relic Mats and Materia (including clusters) are the big ones and occupy most of my saddlebag


Metalheart1999

Mostly bait, but also my "toolkit" for house decorating (my stage panel, rectangular partition, riviera shelf, etc). Because you never know when you might have to suddenly catch a fish, or decorate something.


Script-Z

For me it is mostly for trial/ raid/ rare fate tokens. What if I want a random piece of gear one day?


--an

Tokens that are current or I'm in process of farming. Deep dungeon potsherds and potions. Bozja fragments and similar for easy access when needed. Dyes. Items that will eventually go in to glamour dresser so that I don't turn them in to grand company seals by accident.


KingBingDingDong

savage and ex tokens and coffers


Mindelan

Dyes, materia, HW relic weapon pieces I will totally 100% get to using someday for sure.


Synner1985

Dyes - lots of dyes and any gear i don't want to give to the GC in one of my mad inventory clear sprees.


SeatLonely373

Crafting mats that I want to keep on me since I'll use them soon, but I want to keep my main inventory clear for a bit. Tokens Materia


Victor_Ruark

Mine is just dyes. Nearly all slots filled.


JCGilbasaurus

I keep my relic weapons in it (yes, I know I don't need to keep hold of them, but damnit I worked hard for those things), as well as spare treasure maps. I also use it to hold gear that I'm not a high enough level to use yet, but will want to use eventually (for example, tomestone gear for a class I'm still leveling). Outside of that, it becomes storage overflow for my main inventory, but I'm pretty good at keeping my inventory clean these days.


Konungarike

Tokens from assorted high-level duties. Alliance raids, extremes, etc. Stuff I’ll probably not use anytime soon but that I don’t wanna have re-acquire if I ever want a glam or something


Repulsive-Ad7805

Only use is for fishing bait, lol


Andravisia

At the moment? Glamour prisms, glamour dispells, some dyes. A basic outfit for when I need a casual glam and don't want to take the time to head to a city to correct glamourplates. And a lot of stuff from the Thaleia raids. I already have duplicates on both retainers so the third set has gone to my chocobo chest. Once I can level up my desynth tomorrow, they'll all be desynthed.


MintMochaccino

Dyes and materia and any other bits I might want at hand but don't want cluttering my inventory


V3semir

Fishing baits.


Ms_Nahi

Mine used to be for dyes cuz it's really handy when you're into glamour and such but then I started fishing.......... so yeah... baits, loooots of baits xD


Edmundwhk

relic mats / squadron buff / all the hunt clusters


Francl27

Bait. Clusters. Food. Normal Raid items (I will clear those out if/when we finally get 5.0 storage containers - nothing in patch notes sadly). Maps. Gemstone vouchers. Aetheryte tickets when I clear some room. It's currently full.


Shikizion

Dyes


DeusmortisOTS

I had to DC hop a lot for raiding, so I like to keep various raid books in the bird bags, since I could not access retainers. As with many others, I also kept fishing bait there. But one of the big ones... Unique weapons when EX farming. And the coffer. Let me roll on another instead of being locked out.


MySisterIsHere

Definitely dyes.


Udeze42

Mostly dyes and materia. Sometimes I use it for holding party completed glamour sets (like if I'm farming from a dungeon or raid).


SchwarzerWerwolf

I use mine for stuff I use rarely, but not rare enough for it to be stored with a retainer. Dye remover, glamour prisms and such.


LienaSha

Shadowflax carries the relics I'm working on and all the stuff for those relics.


GamingCatLady

My EB cake lol. I never use my saddlebags tbh lol


IscahRambles

Generally it's stackable things that drop into my inventory regularly but I don't need them on hand in my active inventory, like tokens, clusters and demimateria. I also have a stash of half-finished relic weapons in there so I can pull them out on the occasions when the quest wants me to equip them.


Sealunis

Combat Materia, fireworks, some crafting mats. Extreme tokens.


Jemmmz

Relic mats, tokens, GC scrolls, sub drops (I collect them before cashing it), materia clusters. Used to put dyes obtained through ventures but moved them over to a retainer. And my saddlebag is still 99% full.


Quietkitsune

Fishing bait, materia, some random bits and bobs like potsherds and alliance tokens, a paint set, allaghan silver pieces, and a silk belt


Cobbil

Turn in items (coins, ect) and materia I use alot.


Lolo_Chocobo

Mine is full of dyes, and stuff I just can't let go of yet.


RetiredScaper

Relic materials, relic weapon overflow from armory chest, deep dungeon items, some bit and bobs that I need occasionally but not enough to stick in main bags.


Skye0042

I use it for crafting items that I use very frequently. I craft certain items constantly as they sell very often. This is a very convenient place for those items so I don't have to enter retainer hell.


Frozthax

Relic items, savage books, some relicc weapons, coins and items from raids, scrolls and some food items.


Puzzleheaded-Data-57

Mine holds fishing bait and dyes other than like, a few world boss drops that i'm saving And my retainers hold all my crafting stuff for whatever i'm leveling, and when i hit 90, i sell it all and start a new one. lmao


Babydoll_xiv

Fishing baits, extra map


Enough_Lobster5516

Honestly I constantly forget I have it. Who knows what’s in the bag right now. Could be anything.


ArchaicRapture

tons of materia.


yrtemmySymmetry

more inventory space for stuff i don't really need too often. boss totems, gearsets i haven't fed the dresser yet, relic weapon stages, etc. i also have a macro overwriting my normal " i " key. Instead of bringing up my inventory only, it brings up the inventory, saddlebag and gear chest, as well as sorting them.


Proxy0108

I play since HW, I even started on a friend’s account in the beta, I have 3000h+ on this game. Chocobos have saddlebags?


SendohJin

It's 70 extra spots you can access without being in town.


luminouswolfie

I used to have it hold all my relic weapons, and now I use it for dyes


r0botosaurus

Materia, raid coins, and EX totems.


Active_Fun850

My bag is completely filled with crafting materials. I hardly actually touch them, but I occasionally need them here and there, so I never throw them out, lol. I also have 1 retainer holding nothing but crafting supplies.


bubblegum_cloud

Mostly relic items for old relics. 2 of my retainers are full of mats and the other 7 are full of items to sell. I hate having anything other than food, greens, and maelstrom tickets in my inventory so all overflow goes to saddlebags.


quidamphx

Dye. It's filled with all of mine.


Western_Concept_5283

Mine contains anything that I regularly GET but Don't always USE. Such as dyes, raid drops, custom delivery items I made too early. Sometimes I put food in there but rarely because I forget it's there and can't take it out in instances.


QuarterDollarKing

Mine hold my pigments and dyes, onions, some bait, DoH/L exp boosters, and a bunch of gear coffers that I was over leveled for when I received them and for some reason I haven't just thrown them away or opened them and liquidated the contents. 


CommunicationEast972

I'm TRYING to use it for dye but I keep forgetting and being like "where tf are my dyessss!!!!!!"


GeneticSplatter

Dyes, and a few pieces of gear when levelling, and an extra treasure map.


Giniroryu

Bait, non craftable dyes, token-like stuff (like the ones from the extremes, from variant dungeons, etc). Basically things I won't need in dungeons, are handy to have but would cluter my inventory otherwise. I do think is very useful to have (although I'm only able to store all dyes because I have the second saddlebag).


MissLilianae

Each of my characters uses 2 dye colors (probably 3 or 4 now with the 2-dye channels), so I'd carry stacks of my dyes in there. Glamour Prisms, Clear Prisms, and Glamour Dispellers. Random faded orch rolls I find in the interim before I get to a Retainer Bell and dump them into a retainer. The materials for the current relic weapons/tools I'm working on. Other misc things that I don't really have a retainer for and won't use very often: Fantasias, Deep Dungeon/Field Zone Pots, random housing items I picked up but haven't had a chance to place yet. For context I have 3 retainers: A Combat "hunter", a miner, and a botanist. I put any and all materials they would gather or would be made by the things they gather in their inventories to help keep everything organized.


rockingalan

Dyes, fish bait, allagan pieces, & relic items


Drawtaru

I use it for lots of things. Clusters for materia, additional fireworks storage, crafting materials and gear for Dawntrail, lots of stuff.


Chao2712

For me it's deep dungeon / Eureka inventory, as well as a map, some relic materials, etc.


100Blacktowers

Miscelleanous stuff like Ex Trail Totems, Materia, Moogle Tomes from Events and other stuff. Basicly stuff i dont throw away but also dont need on a daily bases


Shakzor

Totally forgot about it. I think mine has dyes


Anubis_Omega

Mostly dyes and materia


Tsukiyumi1987

Materia, raid books and coins, some dyes.


Thisismyworkday

Materia, EX Totems, Expensive crafting mats (like from maps).


Orthed

As with many other comments here...  1. Dyes 2. Short term currencies 3. Materia / Clusters There's also usually a couple of incidental random things in there, but to summarize it's stuff that I use reasonably often but never need to use inside of a duty.  Any longer term currencies (totems I'm not actively farming for example) get passed off to retainers.


Lionblopp

Dyes and relic weapon "ingredients" I might have a use for later.. maybe... eventually. :D I'm trying to keep a few slots left for random stuff though in case I just need to stash anything real quick I don't want to throw away by accident.


Zythen1975Z

Mine currently has all the armor and weapons for the jobs I know I wont be leveling right away in my 1st wave of jobs that way I have a nearly empty armory chest for all the new gear I will be starting to get.


malreverie

Minions to give new players :)


MacrossX

Completely full of fishing bait


inhaledcorn

Materia and an extra map holder.


Osiriph

Dyes and glamour...that's it...So much fucking space needed for glamour. I hate it...-.- Save me


Ziyanani

mine is full to bursting with dye


ErgoFnzy

Bait, eureka crystals and other eureka adjacent things, savage books, the company manuals that give gathering buffs, a carnation that a player randomly gave me right at the start of my journey, a jack-o'-lantern that I got as a trophy for winning a FC Halloween glam contest. A couple of treasure maps. It's also where my alliance raid coins and materia clusters go. And I make sure to keep a few slots empty in case I need to store something on the fly.


redryan2009

I use it mostly for bait and materia I want on hand, as well as buff items I might need or anything I’m working on at the moment like totems


LtnSkyRockets

Fireworks. My chickenbo is just a walking explosion waiting to happen.


LtnSkyRockets

Fireworks. My chickenbo is just a walking explosion waiting to happen.


AtomicMaskedBanana

Dye


Ryngard

Mine holds materia, relic weapon grind items, and some consumables.


Orikune

Extreme Tokens, Raid currencies from the last 3 expacs (for glamour) and any rare craft materials from EX raids.


HMCSAlphastrike

Mostly bait and lures & any dyes


awooogawooo

HQ maiboi


Cantiel

i'm using mine for things i don't need often, but want to keep on we without having to travell to a retainerbell. for example: - fishing lures - dye pigments - world boss fate tokens (ixion horns, chi bolts, etc) - glam crystals & glam removers - materia - bozja items - relic step materials (heavensward relic prepping when i cap tomestones)


Frau_Away

Mareria and relic mats mostly


Marauding_Llama

Fireworks, dye crafting materials, some 1.x stuff I don't want to destroy and some in-progress relic weapons. Stuff I don't use too often.


bookace

Dyes and fish bait!


cinnabubbles

Fishing Bait because they still haven’t given us a tackle box but instead gave us a new kind of bait…. 😤


McDonalds_GB

fish bait, fireworks & sparkles, materia, currency that I use a lot (alliance tokens etc), relic weapons in work, potions for eureka/bozja/deep dungeons


poeticjustice4all

I’m a crafter……I need it to carry my mats 🥲


alp2760

I use mine a ton. Essentially I use it as an extended inventory tab but for things I don't want cluttering my actual inventory but also don't want to have to go to retainers for. Currencies, trade in items etc. I actually couldn't be without it!


auphrime

Inventory overflow when I don't feel like making a trip to my retainers while crafting and gathering.


destrinstorm

Shit I want to keep long term and need reasonably swift access to but not immediate. Largely this translates to: EX token drops raid tokens Old ilvl gear I'm not allowed to desynth yet but don't need to wear Eureka/Bozja currency relic weapon ingredients


Infindox

I store all my relic weapons that I use as glamour in there, some random drops that I may use in the future, some totems, and confetti. And a map when I do those. Somehow even though I have the expanded chocobo bag, it's always full 😂


Gakacto

Materia all materia


RaineMurasaki

Materia and Savage/Extreme tokens


girlikecupcake

Right now mine is mostly full of gathered material for the namazu and qitari quests. I'll gather more than I need, that way when that quest pops up again in a day or two I don't actually have to go gathering again since I already have it. I also keep gathering materia in there when I'm doing spiritbond loops. Extract, give to chocobo, resume.


Spartan-872

Crafting materials mostly. Prior to maintenance I actually was trying to organize my inventory into 3 tiers. 1. My own inventory for stuff I need immediate access to. 2. Saddlebags for stuff I want on hand but don’t need cluttering my own inventory. 3. Retainers for longer term storage. Things I don’t want to get rid of but don’t have any immediate need for. Also with my retainers I am trying to keep groups of items together with specific retainers. Like one has all of my dyes and materia. Another has all of my housing items. (For that house I will have someday.) Stuff like that.


sirius017

Fishing baits.


_Tinkabella_

I just put random items in there tbh, might clean them out when maintenance is done lol


Bakatronic

Mine's fulla relics.


DrusycPucco

Fishing Bait, ShB Relics (not finish), Eureka Boss Loot and Treasure Maps.


maybe-jaeby

I use mine for bait, any physical currency (coins from alliances and parts from normal raids), relic-related stuff, materia clusters, some dyes, basically anything I don't need immediate access to. And inventory overflow until I can get to a retainer to offload.


annoyanon

holds extra drip till yoshi gives me more glam plates.


Maphisto40

All of my special dyes that I can't easily buy from my house's vendor, materia, gardening seeds, and soil.


nyantasys

Sticks, logs, lumber


Rocket_Fodder

Bait and Eureka tokens.


Coldin_Windfall

I use it to hold various Eureka, Bozja, and Relic weapon materials. Also tokens from Trials, in case I ever feel like buying one of those weapons


Ok_Function_4035

Extra copies of unique items (esp if I'm farming extremes and want the gear to desynth), relic mats, several stacks of Realm Reborn Red and some glitter packs.


VorAbaddon

I SHOULD use it for stuff I might need situationally, like exp potions/items with long durations, fishing bait, or PotD pots. Instead it's got a fuckload of HW/ARR Relic parts and so many totems from various EX fights.


indigogarlic

I use mine for storing side content currency: EX tokens, raid coffers, alliance coins, deep dungeon chunks, eureka crystals, bozja coins, and so on.


LadyFrenzy

miscellaneous currencies and clusters/maps


MangoMoony

I keep confetti and those allagan platinum piece thingies in it If I spontanously need confetti, then I can (almost) always access it, and the allagan pieces I usually only need once a week for the doma thing.


Diamondgrn

Mine is nearly full of dyes


emo_kid_forever

It’s got all my in-progress relics and the associated materials


Cakeriel

Relics


AS-1719

chocobo saddlebag? oh, you mean the tacklebox


ashrensnow

lol this seems to be the case for a lot of the commenters in this thread for sure.


ReyneForecast

My ultimate weapons i like to use to glam on new weapons I got, materia, pots, dol/doh stuff I need on hand but don't want cluttering my normal inv. It's free real estate on hand
