of course in conjunction with raising the material stack from 250 to 500 and armor sets (like weapon sets), it would aleviate alot of these storage space problems.

but more storage space is always good.

This may seem a good idea, but, covered in a FF, it really infact isn't. Someone was bothered with having to log out and back in again everytime when he wanted to do some trading and itemtossing with himself, and asked whether there could be a shorter way created to do so. But, as Anet said wisely, the logging in wont take more than 5 secs for ppl who know their password well, and it protects yout inventory. Cause what would happen if someone, by accident or not, can come to play on your account? They could whipe clear one character, but atleast, for as it would help, you keep the items, stocked in the other characters bags

The camp might be added with the following extra to it: You have to type your pw to get to that camp. That would help, i guess, and it more easier. And for the extra Storage, HELL YEAH! I always seem to have to many crafting materials on me, and 3 bows, 2 armor sets....

its as simple as that.

I could not have said it better myself.

I think letting non-rare crafting items stack to 500 would not hurt anything as well. Many armor items cost more than 100 of a crafting item and spending a stack on armor and some weapons at the crafter can be done easily.

However, I would like to point out that letting the stack size of crafting items be higher will not really solve the problem.

I feel like there should be enough storage to put a stack of each crafting item, rare crafting item, dye, collector item, and have a few left over. Having a character with all of my crafting items is incredibly inconvient if a different character wants some differant armor. My armor color changing addiction, still fed by drops, requires that my dye be accesible to all characters at a whim, so my storage only holds dye, and the new Haloween items. I have a character completely devoted to holding collector items, I think the Remains (Azure, Dark.....) take an entire bag.

I just have to restate that individual inventories would feel a lot more useable if the storage was larger.

Kirbie · Nov 02, 2005, 09:34 PM // 21:34

Yeah...I totally agree with more storage area.
Maybe, something like each character is given a house; and you have to buy closets(for armour), weapon box, drawers and etc.

For me, I like to collect unique stuff.
-Even for my armour, I have 1.5k set, 15k set, and currently working on fissure armour(very slowly...but I think I'll get it eventually)...and each armour has different sets of runes.
-I'm also keeping a cape I got from Gwen...still have no clue what that cape is for...plus broken flute which scatters outside of sanitarium.
-With release of Sorrow's furnace, I've collected about 12 green items. And I heard there are totoal around 75 green items.
-I preordered my game...so I still have pre-order item in my inventory bag.
-There were few halloween special items. Witch brew, ghost-in-box, pumpkin serum, some green potion that makes you glow, and my favorite, the pumpkin helm. I'm keeping all those.
-Plus, I'm pretty sure there will be special items for special holidays in the future.

So, I'm not sure what to do with current storage space really. All of my 4 characters' inventory bags are near full; and I still have lots of unique stuff to collect...like green items.

If this will cause trouble...how about storage for ""customized"" items/armours/weapons etc only....to prevent someone from stockpiling for sale purpose. For example...I know you can't customize runes. But if you can, then now you can stack customized runes and store somewhere for your own character only.

/signed for more storage

no signing for showing off crappy items in your storage :-D

MSecorsky · Nov 02, 2005, 11:30 PM // 23:30

Expand on it... have the Xunlai also be in charge of weapons lockers and armories, where you solely store extra weapons/armor, as well as expand upon the regular storage but no longer allow weapons or armor in regular storage.

i totally agree. i just got another account for my birthday so that i could make a necro and a mesmer, the only two classes i havent played yet...if they introduce more classes...sheesh. i dont want to have to buy a third account.

we definatley need more storage! im having to switch beteween chars. just to get the materials or items i want. i thought the whole point of storage was to make switching items between chars easy. with all the materials i store for making armor and stuff...i have NO ROOM.

/signed. give us more storage.

I Don't know if this has been mentioned already...sorry if it has.
There was another game my husband and I used to play, where you could buy a 2nd,3rd,4th,5th vault page..the prices got extremely high (I think page 3 was like 2 million)..but it was well worth it.
Currently, both my hub and I play GW..and with storage being was it is..we have resorted to using one char strictly for the purpose of storage...which sucks cuz it's one of my chars. If I should want to play as this "storage woman".. I have to log out and in countless times and shift everything around...and it sucks!
Please..please give us more storage...I'd be willing to pay a freakin' fortune for it!

I like the house idea. Even if they were instanced, you could chose which city you wanted it in, you could buy upgrades, store your stuff... It could open up a whole variety of different things. *pokes fellblade display case and armor-polishing kit*

You'd be able to also invite people into your house (perhaps have a 20-30 person group size?) and host parties and stuff.

Swehurn · Nov 03, 2005, 06:45 AM // 06:45

I would absolutely agree with more storage. I'll even pay (guild wars gold OR real world cash if necessary) for the ability to hold onto more stuff. Sure, buying another account is an option, but then there's the headache associated with having to transfer items to the mule...

Gaile - if you read this - I really want to order two pizzas and two sodas, but like I said in-game, I don't have the space for them...

Shimus DarkRaven · Nov 03, 2005, 07:31 AM // 07:31

Storage!

More?

YES!

I don't proclaim to know anything about programming, constraints, etc... so if this suggestion is completely out of line, my apologies. I would like to see all duplicate items (not just crafting materials) have stacking ability. For instance, at any given time my ranger can have 3-6 or the same bow string upgrade, grip, what have you, and yet, no stacking ability. I have had 2-3 of the same green weapon. Again, while it seems simple to me, I have no idea what effect this would have on server space, etc...

What about special items such as basic and perfect components in seperate storage slots? (this MIGHT have been asked already, but need clarification)

I think the slots of storage could be:

Weapons
Weapons (Rare and perfect)
Armor
Armor (Expensive and customised with runes)
Shields/Focuses
Shields/Focuses (Rare and perfect)
Materials (about 40 slots for them materials, rare would be on another page)
Weapon Components (60 items, 1 page for high-perfect storage)
Runes (60 items, 1 page for superiors, majors and minors seperately)
Miscellaneous (holds event items and unusable collectibles, also holds ID & Salvage Kits, 40 would be OK for now)

Hakira · Nov 03, 2005, 05:27 PM // 17:27

I also need more storage, and not just another 20 slots; in order to delete one of my chars (which i'm unable to do, or i will lose all the items on it) I need at least 3 TIMES as much space as is availible now. I really can't see Anet's point of view on hoarding, as it happens on every game, and has already happened on GW in the past (have you all forgotten the 42k black dye day? or the week that runes went international?)

Increasing the stackable crafting materials is also a good idea, but the majority of my items are weapons, armor, runes and other unstackable crap that i keep, eg gwens flute. Like others, i would also be willing to pay gold and/or do a quest to get more storage space; 5k for an extra 10 slots would be very reasonable (hell, ive blown more on dwarven ale).

This idea is needs to make it into the game before x-mas rolls around, at the very latest; i would love to see it by the end of the month. Maybe Anet could roll it into the same update as the auction house, you can't imagine how beautifully they would work together.

Pack rats! I stab at thee!!! *stab*

Only things I ever keep in storage are a FEEWW crafter materials [I sell the ones exceeding 250] or multiple weapons/headgear to change my character roles.

Going from W/N Axe to W/Mo hammer is cool.
From Trapper to BeastMaster Ranger/Monk is good too.
But that only needs about 5 spots of storage with the rest being devoted to crafting.

I'd hate to see what you people's houses look like...

WHOA!! LOTS OF USELESS STUFF LYING AROUND!! GAH!!!

[sadly, my house is similar with my mom being the packrat. gah*]

i agree fully...there should also be a place where u kan show off ur items be it a little spot in ur in stogage for a set of armor a 1 hand weap and a shield so if ppl want they kan look at them but not take them

MSecorsky · Nov 03, 2005, 06:13 PM // 18:13

Hey, really, I want enough slots off character for all the crafting items, plus a dozen or so for "things". That would be enough to make me happy.

I wouldn's say no to more though.

Justafyme · Nov 03, 2005, 09:34 PM // 21:34

We're not really "hoarding" anything...except maybe dye (and that's because they stack..if they didn't they'd be gone
My husband plays a monk..he has three sets of armor depending on what he's doing...two sets of warrior armor...multiple weapons for different purposes. The tapestry shreds (I refuse to get rid of them after how difficult at least one of them was to obtain). Besides, I need it for the next chapter..that's when I find out I was right all along and Gwen is the anti-christ. LOL
I wish I was hoarding a mass of awesome weapons...but sadly, I have never gotten one.
