Okay, so GW:EN isn't supposed to give you another storage page, right?

Well before I preordered GW:EN, I had three (I only own Prophecies and Nightfall). Now I have four pages.

My conclusion is they lied. It doesn't give you another storage page after you already have four.

Or was I wrong from the start?

u get +1 tab for each campaign u own. and 4 tabs is the max u can get.

prop+fact+nightfall = 4 tabs, if u buy gwen u get no additional one... proph+nighfall = 3 + gwen = 4.

sounds pretty clear to me.

the "no additional tabs" was an answer to people with the 3 campaigns asking if they would have had more space buying gw:en = NO

I guess it's hard to get people to read posts thoroughly. Props to the two of you who did.

This kinda confused me all weekend. I bought the GW:EN preview for 2 of my extra accounts because I wanted the weapons for presearing, and was surprised/cautious when I saw they both had extra trays. Welcome relief though - means I have more space for my bows and materials ^^

Quick, get the pitch folks and the touches and hunt Anet down. We must chase them to a windmill and make them jump off and kill themselves in Frankenstien style.... damn you Anet!! *shakes fist*!




Ok why are you complaining?

Maybe you do get another storage slot, maybe you dont! *shrugs*

Maybe it's because when you pre-ordered GW:EN, a trial key for all Guild Wars campaigns was added to your account and "unlocking" the storage pages for you. Now that it's over (assuming you played for over 14 days/10 hours, whichever comes first) it doesn't reclaim the storage page. Or something. I don't know what I'm talking about, really.

GW:EN is a expansion not a campaign, makes sense to me.

I think the way Drop Of Fear described it is the way ANet is running it.

It would have been nice if you owned all of them to have 5 tabs of storage space though.

Can you link to the source of this information? I've read quite a bit and watched some of the GW:EN video's, but I did not get the information about a storage increase.

That's an interesting conundrum actually, how are they going to explain that EotN may have unlocked an additional slot for people with less than three campaigns, however those with all 3 can't get any more?

solution: give everyone who buys gw:en a storage slot like they should be doing anyway. I'm getting tired of this "Add more stuff that you can't have because you have no storage room available"....there are lots of sets of armor that I'd like to get...but I'm forced to pick and choose my favorites because I have no room.

Profecies, faction , and elonia will be 4 storage slots and the 3 campaign + GWEn will be 4 so i dont think they need another one ...

Gaile said that they gave GW:EN's storage early.Pretty sure.

They gave us 3 extra storage tabs when the xunlai agents increased it.

We had 1 at start(proph)
2(Factions)
3(NF)
4(GW:EN)

Pretty sure thats how it went down:P

Actually I remember Gaile saying that EotN would *not* actually have new storage slots.

While I don't remember Gaile saying we would get extra storage (actually think she said the opposite), I think they should reconsider.

The problem for me is the Heroes, with 10 more Heroes, that's 10 more characters for me to outfit with weapons/runes/etc per character, so I keep stuff until I unlock the Heroes and upgarde their weapons/armor.

If I keep 1 item for each potential hero I have to unlock, I have the 4 games, that's 80 storage slots (and I'm not even counting if you bought/have additional characters)

Anet -> I will buy storage (people do already with character slots), why can't we have the option to buy 10 extra tabs in the online store?

Personally so they "told" us no extra storage, so they changed their minds. I have no reason to complain about an extra storage slot, of course i'm not putting anything i can't stand to lose in that extra storage either as i don't want to risk it being a bug and go to storage just to find i lost a ton of near irreplacable items when they "fix" it.

Anyway for now i'm taking the stance of "WOOO extra storage" I only had 2 slots before (only have Prophecies) now i have 3, so no complaints.

I don't buy stuff for my heroes, i keep golds/max stuff, minor runes and insignias from drops for them. Honestly 10 Characters, with what 20 possible heroes available, have any idea how many slots i waste reserving stuff for when i unlock x hero on y character?

For me it's such a money making opportunty lost to Anet, people already buy "mule" character slots, why not allow us to buy tabs in the store ... and the worse we are at inventory management, the more money we will spend
