Default ZaiShen Quests are the big inventory hog

HM Books for all 4 campaigns, Young heroes of Tyria, and dungeon is 6 spaces + space for coins.

I thought it is suppose to save you space, not make it worse.

Ten bucks for a pane of storage is a lot, they need to make sure there's plenty of incentive.

Why do people insist on carrying the books and then complain about the space they take? You do not need to carry them to fill them. Just complete the conditions, ask for the book, pay to fill it, done. Costs 100g/page, or 1-5 monster drops.

Actually, that's all the zaishen quests are...missions. Do the missions, put them into the book.

But yeah, they count even if you get the book later and fill it out.

He's talking about synergising the rewards from z-missions with the rewards from books, it's a good idea.

I myself decided just not to take the damn books with me on the z-missions, because the reason I'm doing them is for the equipment pack because I need more storage. I don't have room for the books.

That's right. The idea of the Zaishen mission quests is so that it can synergize with the books if you are not carrying them then you are only gimping yourself.

If you decide not to carry the books then you are just not making full use of the opportunity they presented.

Can't you fill books later for some gold?

Still, OP has a point, to get most of quests you want to carry all books around. For all characters. Gulp.

Yes you are right, but even at 100g per page, it can cost afew plats PER CHARACTER, as i am saving my gold if possible.

Without the quests, I would have done them 1 campaign at a time so I dont need different HM books all in my inventory at all times.

ANet, please lower the cost of the Equipment packs so that we can get them earlier!

Why Spend 10 Bucks a storage pane, when you can go to www.newegg.com and get an GW account for 15~ bucks and have more room than just 20 storage spots?

There's this thing called Storage where you can put stuff when not in use, in fact they just expanded it, free of cost. You don't need to carry all that crap on you all the time. The most you need is 1 book for the current mission and 3 slots for your various Zcoins.

So let me get this right, when you are doing raisu palace, you don't know which book you need. From my perspective any half wit would go the the xunlai chest and put the other ones in there if not being used. hmmm. So you feel like you are too lazy to switch them out everytime you do a diferent quest. You will find no pity here and you just look lame in the process.

Depending on how many characters you have, you could easily fill 2-3 or more panes of Storage JUST with books. You would be hard pressed to find many people with that much free storage space. So the OP's problem is not solved with your "solution", and you were rude on top of it.
