Private tab in storage.

I had this idea last week.
Im now playing PvP, and i like to use PvE chars. Thougt they have nice looking armors and weapons, thats not the main reason. I find easiest to select weapons with different skins to fit the situations.
So, I've some storage issues. To play PvP at a decent level, we need many items, shields vs fire, cold, piercing, etc.., 20/20 sets for each attributes, 15-1 sets, etc...
One char is, almost, perfect stuffed: his inventory his full, and he have a full tab in storage.
Using a mule is totally out of question. I cant (and dont want anyway) log another char, take a staff, then log out/in again... Thats just painful, and ridiculous.

There is a simple way to resolve this problem. A new tab in xunlai chest, a "private" tab. Whenever you log a char, this tab will contain his items.

FANTASTIC idea! That way my storage whouldn't be chock full of a million armour sets...my characters could simply have their own armours stored in the "Private Tab"

Most certainly /signed.

interesting, I'm not directly suffering from this problem, I use my belt pouch and 1 of the 10 slot bags on each char and that is enough to store they switch able equipment and weapon sets in.

I however like the idea, its not just another more storage/armor storage/mini storage, whine; it's an actual good and useful idea.
/signed and kudos

Why doesn't anet do what most other mmorpgs do? Let people pay for extra storage. They have the perfect money sink, and no-one complains about needing extra storage again.

I like the idea, and I'm all for it

I don't know either. i mean it makes sense, but maybe GW has enough gold sinks with what, 870k obsidian armor?

This idea does make some sense.

However, one could get around it by making sure there was ample storage space in current vault to store the needed items. That is where a mule would come in handy .... to clear out some of the excess stuff from your vault and free up space for the other items you want to keep handy.

Just an alternative way, as I don't think ANET is going to add anymore storage now.

PS. Forgot to add

Yeah i think idea for private is Nice But it wouldnt be Nice that you wouldnt have Any storage for all chars then you couldnt change item from differend char to differend atleast not easyly.

More storage space (and I mean like 100+ slots) would make life so much easier for me. My warrior literally has 1-2 free slots in inventory at a given time, my storage is full of old school stuff/random junk, and all my other characters are full of upgrades, holiday hats and items, etc. It seriously takes me upwards of an hour to organise my items sometimes >< I wouldn't mind paying for more storage space but I don't think other people would like the idea.

Although I like the idea quite a lot... there's the problem about login in two characters of the same account...

If this is possible, I would agree it for sure:
- Private tab:
*Acquisition: Pay 50g to the Xunlai Agent.
*Use, change to the Private tab. There's only a single button: "Open someone else's inventory".
*Hit the button. Input email(if not saved)/and password.
*Now that tab turns into the F9 panel of that another character with a 'close' and a 'change' buttons at the bottom.
*To access heroes and equipped items, you would have to log in the other character, though.
*Trade items.
Done!

But, as always, is easier said than done...

Nice idea would be helpful

that's a pretty cool idea and would be very neat! A character private tab is perfect for customized weapons and armor!

This is a superb idea. My main character's 15k sets already take up one tab in storage and one bag on my bank character...

And here I was, had my flamethrower out and ready to go...

But I do like this idea. Nice thought.

i personally have two whole charthers that are mules i really wouldn't mind paying for more storage

For once just not a bitch for more space thread- its actually constructive. Nice.

So by adding a "private" tab for each character, you're basically adding a new storage tab for each character slot you have filled. I see no reason to make the tab "private". I'd rather have additional storage tabs where the number of tabs equals the number of character slots you have. Then if you choose to use them as private (you assign one to each character) or if you choose to pool them for all your characters, that is your choice.

or u could just pay for new tabs with increasing tax rate as was suggested and ull be able to have as many tabs as you wont for each character

I love this idea, /signed.
I can now have all my shields/swords/axes in that tab without having to log off to grab from my mule.

there wont be extra storage since there are character slots in online store

The reason to make the tab private is that you dont need to share much stuff between characters.
This tab would be reserved for stuff used by this character. Your warrior wont need your mesmer staves.
Basically, it acts like a bag, with the difference that it couldnt be used to pick more drops in PvE. It would be "the house" of your character.
Originally, i had this idea while playing PvP. Before starting a battle, i went to storage to pick weapons related to my build.
And no, having a mule doesnt solve the problem. Ive 8 slots, one of them beeing reserved to reroll a PvP char. So, I have to share the storage between my 7 other chars. Each of them using a full tab, that is just impossible. And i dont mention all the usefull stuff (tomes..), the free place, etc..
Using heroes as storage is just awfully unpratical, and will prevent me to use them.
