The extra Backpack slots where do you get them? - Guild Wars Forums

nagojohn · Apr 18, 2005, 01:11 PM // 13:11

My wife and I had a blast this past weekend in our first and i guess last

BWE.

Question though we both got our belt pouchs before moving on past the, is it called pre-searing area (I hate using the term noob area). But we could never find where we get the next set of backpacks for the other two slots?

Didn't matter to much didn't have a bad inventory problem just curious.

Can't wait for release!

The next two backpack slots are bought for 250G at any Outfitter once you pass Pre-Searing (I'm not entirely sure about which merchant it is and the availability, I play a Warrior generally so I skip the bag space and head straight for the armor I need until I get to say Lion's Arch or so.). Now that bags are inventory items it might be possible to acquire them some other way or different bags somewhere else but that's just speculation at this point.

First of all: I had a blast as well

I got the two bags for the final slots (which each hold another 5 items) from the captain at the frontier gate (where you get right after the Fort Ranik mission). They cost 100 gold each.

News to me. Well, shows you how much I PVEd last BWE, huh?

Yes, the pouch you get in pre-searing. One of the collectors that wants 5 skales and he will give you a pouch that holds the 5 items.

In post ascalon you buy the bags from the outfitters for 250. Later, I believe it was in frontiers gate. You can buy a scroll that you use on your pouch to increase its maximum hold from 5 to 10. I cant remember the cost. I think it was only 100.

PawnBoy · Apr 21, 2005, 08:29 PM // 20:29

Where did you get this scroll for the pouch increase? The bags only hold 5 items each, but I've seen a screenshot where both bags held ten. Is there another scroll for the bags as well? If so, where do you find those?

I don't remember as to which town it was in, but if you follow through with each missions that land you in a town you find them or something with one of the outfitters. Just next time you get to PvE just make sure to stop and examine each outfitter before you head out for missions and the likes

Kaiwyn · Apr 21, 2005, 09:46 PM // 21:46

I also heard that there is a vault keeper to get storage space of about 25 slots where you can keep stuff and trade between your characters.

TheSecondSeven · Apr 21, 2005, 10:26 PM // 22:26

the scroll to increase the bags capacity from 5-10 would be found in Yak's Bend I believe and the cost around 500 each.

Leighis had it right.
Look for an NPC in the Frontier Gate outpost, right after Ruins of Surmia.
I can't remember his name at the moment, just hold down ALT and look for the NPCs.

You can't buy bags in Ascalon city, as far as I know. Don't freak out if you miss the bags at Frontier Gate, Yak's Bend isn't that far. Just remember to sell the useless weapons you find after every mission. I don't salvage any weapons early- salvage the armors, identify the unidentified rares, sell everything else. Armor is more of a concern, really.

I believe there are vault keepers in every outpost, though I didn't make a point to visit every one and check last BWE. The vault has 20 spots, not 25, and you have to pay a one time fee of 50g per character to access the vault.

Kaiwyn · Apr 22, 2005, 05:52 PM // 17:52

Say my Ranger finds a Vault keeper and gets a vault. Do I have to pay then and there for the other charaxcters or if I am playing my Warrior...how can he access my Ranger's vaiult. And does he have to be in the same location as the Ranger was when he bought it? I don't suppose a character in Pre-sear can access a vault?

Midnight Scorpion · Apr 22, 2005, 05:55 PM // 17:55

Vaults are per-account basis, each new character that wishes to see what is in your account vault needs to pay 50g, and no more.
