I know this has been an idea before.
But it is even more needed now with all the minis available and new ones coming out like the Ceratadon just recently.
Could we please have a new tab in our storage box OR something similar like the storage but IN our Homs for Minis
Dyes and Weapons ect.

I am willing to pay for this say 500g or 1k as I am sure many would and before you say just go buy a slot for a mule and do it that way.
I got too many slots now trying to keep track of whats where.
If the Hom had it's own Storage separate from the normal storage I think it would be easer to implement ( but I'm not a programmer so don't really know)
than tweaking the normal storage and adding tabs and such.
Thanks for reading.

Just put all your junk white minis into HoM then trash them. (or keep just 1 of each, no multiples.)

You want storage for mini's, other want storage for dye's, other for collectable drops...

No fair choice can be made there. Besides, if u get all these extra tabs, what use will the normal storage slots have?

Allowing Bags or Belt pouches to be popped in to storage would be ideal

Haha, yeah, that would be the forever solution. Just buy tons of bags, fill them with stuff and put them all in storage. Need more? Just put the bags in the bags etc.

Posts like this make me wonder...
Even if you'll get 1000 more storage slots, will it hurt you? Or someone else?

It would be cool to be able to 'give away' dedicated or uncustomized miniatures to 'Toy Makers', and they give out 'Customized ones'.

Customized won't be able to be traded or show. And since you will have to give it to the NPC, people won't be able to trade them so everyone has them.

I don't care much about pokemon, but what I *would* like to do is fill a complete Hall of Monuments, which requires 20 minis

Sure... Why not?

I'd rather see a storage for more important things like dyes, collectible drops, whatever...

But I'd be happy if I could unload my mini-pets somewhere else, and save some Storage space ^^

I doupt extra storage at the Xunlai Agent would work very well, though... With so many new mini-pets coming every year, it needs to updated time after time... Maybe something like a mini-pet zoo?

Anything, as long as my mini-pets are happy! :3

Sell a Mini? NEVER!!


Sorry parody of above post...


I just think the easiest method for this, IF they would have opted to do it, would have been to make it similar to the Festive mask guy, and have them offer a CUSTOMIZED mini (so they are unsellable) and allow you to retrieve a mini from the HoM across your account.
The problem with this is that they are allowing minis to be traded EVEN AFTER being put in a HoM! Thats why this method was Nixed.

The next solution would be to have a storage tab in the HoM so you can put the minis in or pull them out If they are dedicated.

Again this solution would STOP the selling of dedicated minis. Why? because if they pull the dedicated mini out of the HoM the HoM no longer displays it. But you now have a dedicated mini in your inventory that you can put back on the HoM shelf display, OR use as you wish on your account. If your silly enough to sell it, you no longer have the option to have it displayed in your HoM from that time forward. Thus no one would be that ridiculous. This is the BEST solution for storage of minis.

Ultimately IF Anet wants to make a easy buck or nine ;P they could offer a 2nd storage chest in our HoM or GH for $9.99... I personally would jump on that... I already do that for a Mule character slot... But the added value for a 2nd chest would be even more beneficial and popular...

I still don't know why the HoM doesn't just hold them. They look like they're stored there anyway. Just stored on the platform.

Because Anet doesn't know what we want.

...Well sometimes they do, but then they ignore us anyway.

You can get extra minipet storage from the online shop for a small fee. Anet calls it "character slots".

I did say that in first post about buying extra slots but I'm really talking about consolidating all this into one place.
WHY can't we just have another Storage box that is a separate thing to normal storage added to Hom's only.
For Min's Or Armour OR Dyes Or special event collectible drops or whatever we chose to put there
as long as that option is available to purchase from the on line store
They will still get money from us but it will be all simplified in one place not spread over diff charr slots
It would be an option then the people that want this can pay for it and the rest that don't it won't effect them at all.

My Idea would be for the Storage Box the price would be same as for a charr slots now
and then say $5 per tab up to a max of 5 or 6 tabs only for server space storage
it would not include normal materials storage tab as that is handled by normal storage.

Yea I have been meaning to make a big ass spread sheet for my mules. I got 3 of them. Plus the 100+ heroes now. actually closer to 200...

Then I can just list all teh crap they all have on them so I can find it. Mules are all well and good, but they hold A LOT. I mean think about it. 25 heroes can hold a staff or a 1hand weapon and offhand or shield. so max that 50 items there... then another 50 on backpack, belt and 2 bags. thats 100 storage spaces per character slot mule. for $9.99

Keeping track of where you put it all. Thats another story...

I have been putting off making a huge ass excel sheet cause I know its going to be a lot of switching around and looking and just it will take a long time to do. and even longer to keep it up over time.


Now I fully applicate the storage chests tabs and materials in there.. that helps a ton. before hand that made things very hard remembering where all that stuff was. BUt more and more lately that space is getting filled up with things you would normally hold in your character belt. But with the addition of BOTH HM and Normal mode books, for GWEN, that space has dwindled greatly.

As a ranger I generally carry around 3 bows. at least 3 masks, and now 4 books. Add a stack of lockpicks, and prob a mini. though that's optional I will not count it. And a identify kit and salvage kit, so that 13 slots taken up on your player with just the basics IMHO. Thats a full bag and most of a belt.
Leaving 36 spots for picking up stuff. So you dump all the golds to storage as you get them and sort through it later right? I do. every few days I have to go in and either find a place for the golds or merch them.

So yea its just adding up what all you have to carry around with you is all... It would be nice to have a special spot for 1 mini in inventory, Nothing else but a mini. and it would be nice to have a key ring spot to store your keys.
And now with these dam books have a spot for those too that does not detract from what your allowed to pick up in LONG dungoens. We ask for it Not really expecting to get it. but saying it would be nice to see. If Anet agrees they try to implement it.

Now storage. Materials are there, so why are not other things like Dyes and Rune stacks? I am sure part of the reason is to prevent over hoarding of the items. That could be. Collector items take up a full tab for me. More so then Dyes or runes. but I have had times when both are in there and just need to be dumpped... Another tab is nothing but minis. And god help me I got 3 more characters about to hit 2nd birthdays... ;( IDK what I am going to do with these soon... They just take up too much room, But it feels so wrong to trash a trophy.
Another tab is green storage, till I can find places for them.
and that basically leaves 1 tab for the rest of the stuff.

Even when I am moving things around its getting harder and harder to do cause you do not have the space to hold it while you move it.

IDK.. Its a hard point... no matter how much they give us for storage this will always be the case. I know this and expect it... Best thing I could do is just delete a character that is completly full of greens and golds. and pretend I never got any of that stuff. and start over. I'll keep the mule for Holiday stuff, and the other for primary weapons... IDK.. like I said its a hard choice to make. More so cause I earned my stuff. I didn't cheat and buy it... so its just hard to trash something that you found and was worth keeping all this time.

I definatly would like to see a mini pet storage. I do not have multiples of and 1, but I do have a rather large collection. I have dedicated most of them and I will not delete them for any reason nor will I sell. I keep 10 in storage at all times and I keep 2 on me at all times, and have more on other charicters. I would like to be able to have access to any 1 at any time on any charicter with out having to swap charicters, move pets, get back on wanted charicter and so on. I think its a great idea, but I also dont think it will ever happen. We have been asking for dye storage for next to forever now and it still hasnt happened so the results look grim.

I would LOVE for this idea to happen, this is why i signed up on the forums:

Suggest an Armor tab for the bank (for people who like to collect sets) which is already there i saw

And this, a mini pet storage tab (zoo?) for storage or HoM I personally would rather not trash them after dedicating them because i still love all the mini pets and would like to take em out still. Considering how many minis there are and how people may have multiple chars with bdays or they like to collect them it would be SO NICE to have a mini pet storage because they do take up quite a bit of space considering how many there are.

No tabs to more pages
No Crafting Mat storage

Agree.

Extra storage tab = 20 slots
Mule with pouch, bags and runes of holding = 45 slots!

IMO paying ingame money to get a new bank tab for mini pets (or other things) is better than buying new charslots for mules and makes them more acessible instead of logging on/off chars looking for stuff and some people dont have money to do that like youngins who get the game as gifts
