    Cabniet, is 3water I think? with a lot of cabs, thats a lot of water energy.

    Im not sure what element your alch item is, but it will need to overcome the water/whatever else element in your mh.

    So buy a lot of similiar element stuff to your alch thing, and stock pile it in your mh.

    Screw cabniets, get a mannequin.

    Go fish for coral fragments in onzozo.

    I think I have like 15 Cabinets or something in my mog house. I haven't checked my bonecraft item, but just go to key items and see if it's there. If you have that mog enhancement then your good. If not look into mixing different elements for storage and then load your MH with the right element.

    It's just easier to craft with a mule >.<; Lol I still have three mule's loaded with bone patas... That's from like five months ago >.<;

    Each Furniture has an element to it as well as a strength in that element. Mystery tour has a list of most of the strengths and elements.

    http://mysterytour.web.infoseek.co.jp/f ... ements.htm

    Since Alchemy GP item is lightning based, you need to maintain do 2 things.

    1 - Make sure that Lightning is the strongest element in your moghouse. This is done by summing all lightning furniture you have and subtracting any earth based furniture you have.

    2 - Make sure the furniture with the strongest lightning element is your esmerlda.

    To get more space and maintain your +1 alch, you need more furniture to strengthen the lightning element and then you can place the storage items. I'd recommend bookshelves as the best path for you since its weaker than the esmerelda and has 4 space.

    Can only hvae 1 bookshelf unless you decide to add additional lightning element items but tehre aren't any good furniture items. Can't use noble's bed or bastok flag since it will overwrite your +1 alch.

    As long as your crafting furniture has the highest power level item in your mog house, that is what your moghancement will be (from my understanding)

    For example, I had 8 mannequins in my mog house with power of Light-6. This gave me Moghancement:Light. Once I added a Mahogany Bed to my mog house (Light-10), I started receiving Moghancement: Experience.

    Seeing as Alchemy is thunder based with an element power of 9, I think you might be limited on your storage options. I haven't done tests in cross-element stuff, but test it out with Chiffonier and Cabinets, to see if their element powers (Water-8, Water-12) are going to cancel out your moghancement.

    Edit- someone beat me to it

    Do the bookshelf then then stock up on mannequins. They're weak light so you can have a bunch and it's 7 storage per. They're just so much better than every other peice of furniture theres no point shopping around.

    A little more straightforward answer,

    I have 10 armor boxes and 6 taru stools in my MH, as well as Bastok flag and Emeralda.

    If Im synthing, I remove the flag and put in Emeralda. If I go out exping, I remove Emeralda and put down the flag.

    This is -15 to mog safe, but +36 storage. FAR from most effecient, but I was poor when I did the math(about 6 months ago?) and havent felt like changing it since.

    If i remember correctly you need over 120 points of element to get "overwelming aura". So to achieve this in with Lightning you are going to lose more space than you can gain.

    Emeralda - 9pt

    Then a mix of:

    Taru Foot Stools: 2pt (gives desynth if you take out emeralda)

    Flower Stand 2pt (this might be better if you don't worry about desynth since it's only 1x1 for same amount of points)

    tableware set: 3pt (you won't get desynth if you take out emeralda with this in)

    So say: So if looking for pure Space in Mog to also add storage you could do something like this:

    1 Emeralda 9pt
    46 Flower Stands 92pt (this is also pretty cheap to do since you buy them at npc in sandy or crafted pretty cheap, but just woke up and can't remember if you can't fit that many, but i think you can i'll check later when i log on game)

    That gives you over 100.

    The thing with the furnishings is They work just like any other moghancement. It's not enough to just put it in there, but also to max our your aura to really get the strong effect from it. So if you're looking to get good HQ and less breaks, fuck the worrying about storage really, and make sure you have max aura while crafting atleast.

    my mog house looks like this ...

    50 taru stools, a few paintings for more lightning strength, 4 mannequins (just cuz i like em^^) and my emerelda and misc. junk. gives max storgae, overwhelming lightning energy with moghancement alch. I keep consumables and crafting ingredients in my mog safe and equip for thf and lower jobs in storage.
