I for one would be willing to pay some obscenely high price for it even. Say 100K? Yes, that isn't much, but in comparison to a bag it is ^^

Mods, can we please lock this thread, as it is no longer relevant with the storage update we received?

Actually it IS relevant, considering that the entire "it'll damage the economy" argument for not increasing storage was apparently abandoned by Anet. In light of that, there's no reason NOT to give us as much storage as we'd find useful, so an armor tab would be welcome. A dye tab too, for that matter.

I personally only have one armor set per character, but I'll sign anyway since i know many people that have multiple sets of armor. /signed

What I would really like to see is headgear that can change its primary attribute at the click of a button, just like they did with the drop-down change your secondary profession stuff. And the headgear should have slots instead of having to salvage them to retrieve the runes and insignias.

Reason being that some builds are really specific with attributes so I have 4 masks on my ranger that are for 4 different builds. Would be much easier to just have one mask that could change the attribute and have interchanging runes to modify it as you see fit.

Armor? Nah...

Customixed items.

That's better, since player armor is always customized, you could also store weapons and off-hand

If people have more room to put armor, they'll buy more and thus, spend more gold. I've heard that gold sinks are good for you.

/signed I have alot of random armor for my Necro, so Lol it would be sweet to be able to store it. Instead of having to put it on a mule or keep it in your character in order to save space.

I completely agree for this very reason. I have a decent amount of money in my bank, and I'm a PvPer. I farm occasionally but I have nothing to spend on D: I'd love to buy armor for my PvE chars, even if I don't use some of them XD - but I have absolutely no space with the various weapons/helmets and existing armor sets in their inventories. Not to mention, 3 of them (out of 6) are already mules for mods, golds, and miscellaneous items (one for each type >_<)

On my ranger, I have 4 distinctive builds that I use the most for different areas and situations. They're the same armor, just with different runes and dyed slightly differently.
Basically there's a 16 beast mastery set, a 16 wilderness survival (for trapping, mostly), one with just minor marksmanship and survivor runes, and one with all radiant insignia.
I have other setups I want to do, but the *only* reason I'm not, is because my storage is so cluttered already. Let alone doing this over multiple characters. My ranger is the only one out of my 8 characters I've bothered to do this on, simply out of storage reasons.

It depends on if Anet is intending for us not to get an infinite amount of different armor setups, but if it's not - definately signed.

Edit: Wow, didn't notice how old this thread was.

I'm a girl. I like pretty things. I've been playing this game for two years now and repeating the same missions is getting boring. Having new armours to save up for gives me a reason to keep playing, so some storage would definitely be a good reward for my continued dedication to the game. It has nothing to do with being a show-off or having the most expensive armours, but it does have everything to do with having a reason to keep playing. While it may not be your reason, it certainly is one of mine.

Hmm Im guessing the main arguement now for Anet not giving us Extra Storage is Megabytage.... So Perhaps you could make it a bonus for buying GWEN (As Heros are to NF)
A Big TY For the now 4 storage slots btw ^^

Yes please, this is a very good idea, why should i throw away armor just because there's not enough place to hold them. Plus we all want our players to look pretty and handsome in many different style, not just one.

On my ele there are 4 head gear and 3 sets of armor, when she go out farming there's usually not enough space to hold loots because I cannot put those armor in my storage, because my storage is full.

For those that think it's stupid, silly or just a way of getting more storage, you couldn't be more wrong since it would be SPECIALIZED STORAGE meaning it would be for customized items ONLY

It was suggested in the dye storage thread that it could perhaps be a purchasable update through the GW online store. I would completely support that and be willing to pay RW money to put the tab in my storage. Seriously. Bring on the cash. That way Anet gets my money, and I get my storage. Everybody happy!

An example of why you MIGHT want four slots is so that charatcter class like Elementalist could have gloves of each Superior rune.
Why would you want gloves with each sup rune? Put it on ur head peice.

Anyways I think storage for armors would be a good thing. I have three sets of armor for my main, 55 necro, MM, and other armor. It kills a whole bag with those and the two extra face scars I carry around.

another solution could be to give each charactor another bag for customized equipmant (10 slots no uncustomized equipment)

If we cannot freely move runes and mods around in our armor, it forces us to mod new parts and store them. This is a more than reasonable request.

While we are at it, hero weapons are breaking my back as well. For example, I use the 2 Ele hero's a lot. When I want to change their builds, I need either a staff of the appropriate element (4 x 2 = 8 staves) or the wand + offhand (8 x 2 =16 wand+offhand). It's the same for the rest of them. Either I stick to a one element/weapon build, or the low storage prevents me from being creative. I have unlocked all the skills, mods, runes etc. I am also willing to farm for hero gear, storage space shouldn't act as a build limitation.

To the critics: If you do not need extra storage space, that is well and good. Extra storage space that you do not use hurts neither you, nor the game, in any way. What is is about people that have to stand up and criticize other peoples requests that, if implemented, will affect them in no negative way at all? You don't need more space, then congrats, you can ignore this thread. If you are going to shoot this idea down, a better reason than "I don't personally need it" would be appreciated.

Aye Agree! We really need more space in the storage dept, In real life I need a lot of clothes & shoes space etc.. and also in game life I need loads of space and I seem to have to create like 4 PVP charators to create more space for my armours and weapons plus special items...so Arenanet do something about this please

Kind regards

I don't believe this was mentioned. What if there was a "chest" you could purchase from a merchant that would hold 5 armor pieces and would only take up one slot within your storage?

Or an Armor Chest Merchant with a chest for each profession. Once this was in your storage you would know what profession it was. Or perhaps the chest had the profession icon on it.

This way no new tabs were needed.

No it is not like you need all sets of armours from all campaigns.They could give us an mini pet NPC like the festival hat one.I get tired of having 2 mini pets as well as all the junk from Wintersday,Halloween,Dragon Festival Day and all those other special weekends.It just clutters up your vault and inventory.

apparently in the Hall of Monuments, there's a section where you put your ascended armor sets to unlock a feature for GW2. In order to unlock it you have to have a *CERTAIN AMOUNT* of armor sets.
*IF* you need more armor sets than say 6 (one very knowledgable poster mentioned in another thread it's probably 15), many people will have to be hauling around multiple sets, and that is going to be a problem.
*SINCE* Anet is going to require probably more armor sets than most people have characters to complete the unlock for GW2, they *SHOULD* give armor storage.

that's my logic

so..........

Changing builds often means changing armor pieces to maximize it. Hell, we need more storage period. I'm about to have to make a character just for the storage. Between festival prizes, birthday pets, armor, and quest items, there just isn't enough.

I dont have many armour sets, mostly due to storage issues. If we had a storage space dedicated for them (hey, what a use of the HoM), then i may actually invest in a few variations.

I have 10 suits of armour I believe for my ranger.

Part of this is due to the issue of shfting runes; my ranger is fully PvP ready, and I want to be able to use any combination of runes/insignia of the common types (Attunement/Vitae, Minor, Superior). As a result I have 6 sets for the spectrum of Survivor-Radiant (Radiant with +3, +1 and Attunement runes, Survivor with +3, +1 and Vitae runes) all in the same style, so I can mix and match without looking dumb, as well as some other armours for fun (Scout's insgnia, BM insignia etc...).

Rangers need a variety of bows as well; 4 recurves (silencing, barbed, poisonous, crippling), an Ebon bow of Enchanting for Ebon Dust builds, Enchating Flatbow for Conjure/JI Barrage, Spiking Hornbow, Crippling Longbow, some PvE bows. Since rangers often also run other weapons, I have daggers (zealous/vampiric/silencing), sword, hammer, axe, tactics shield, scythe, blood staff, spear, command and motivation shield...

Not surprisingly, I'd like more storage of customised stuff.
