How many storage did you buy for your main account?

I got the free storage pane and that was it that is all Anet deserves and I deserve more for free. I got one of those Zashien mission quests, got all other there with my team of heroes and henchies and there's nothing there but a flashing green asterixs no mission no quest results nothing nada a total WASTE OF MY TIME. So, yeah they owe me lots of free stuff now after this fiasco of a broken crappy mission.

meh, if they do a 2 for €10 i'd buy 2 or 4 slots, for convience i'd say, wouldn't pay the €10 for one imo.

still nice to have the option, the daileis are nice.

Bought all of 'em. Happy camper, am I.

Haven't got anything but storage for now, but I think it's really cool that those options are available now.

And to whomever was QQing about paying in GBP from Australia, it works out to $48 for 4 panes. Better than if you'd paid in USD (that's AU$55).

Someone should turn this into a poll thread.

I didn't buy any storage tabs and I don't intend on doing so.

I think the term "grind" is being used to much lately. By that logic just playing the game is grind, nomatter what you do.

I got all 4 tabs of storage. Also finally picked up the bonus mission pack while I was in the store as well.

Some people may think it is a lot to spend but after spending it, I realized it is so so so convenient having one generalized storage and not having to jump around 4 mules to find what I am looking for.

I dunno, I'm totally digging this update.

I bought all 4 and a makeover.

Reasons?

Makeover
I deleted my original Ranger. I eventually remade a new one in Factions becuase I couldnt be arsed with the slow intro in Prophs. I made the best face I could but I never liked it and that character is my main with 3000 hours and 23~ish titles. Its preferable to me to get my main character 100% the way I like it and at £1ish for each complete makeover i considered that vey good value.

Storage Tabs:
Took 4 of these and yes I know i could have got 2 games or 4 character slots for this but for £6ish each I decided that the convenience factor for me was worth it. I have space on my alternate account but loading up different accounts to move and store stuff around is a bit annoying to me and tbh i am an organisation freak so now I can put all my spare armours in 1 slot , weapons in another , collectable drop in one and so on. For some of us its not about how many slots , its about how convenient are things

I bought four panes of storage and a makeover kit.

One thing I realized, after buying the storage panes, was that I had mules with a whole ton of skill tomes. Elite and normal, and whenever I make a new character I never think to check mules for tomes. Now all of the tomes are in one storage pane, and I'm actually using them. It's also been nice to be able to organize things like consumables -- one pane for party/sweet/drunkard consumables. Much better and easier to find than scattered across several mules.

I've had mule characters for years, and I'm more than a little tired of having to swap stuff around. Paying real world money for the convenience of the storage in the Xunlai chest is totally worth it to me. Yes, I could have bought a whole other game... but transferring between accounts is even more tedious than between characters.

I am still not convinced that the storage pane is such a good buy but I did buy a makeover kit to correct my assassin's look so now she doesn't need to wear a mask that hides her hair style after all these years.

There are too many advantages to a new account. Having 5 more Traveler's gifts per week is one.

couldn't add poll. maybe i didnt check "add poll" when i created this thread.

back to topic:

none of my guildmates bought the extra storage yet. some of them bought the make-up, but none of the extra storage.

i couldn't decide to buy for now coz i have two empty slots in my storage (including the 4th year anniv free pane). and im currently playing in pre-searing ascalon and we dont have vault in there.

so, maybe ill just buy later if ever i will be needing it.

Right now I don't have much of a storage problem.
Got lots of room in that free tab, plus a bit on spare characters I don't use much.

Maybe when I have enough of switching characters to get my items or that I really don't have room I will, or maybe just to whiten them grey numbers xD

I was going to buy all 4 tabs and I will when they fix my NCsoft master account issue. Until then, I'm not spending a penny.

none they way 2 xpensive! 4 tabs cost the price of all 4 chapters! and buying a mule is always an option.

Mules I have. I want tabs because they're better storage, not because they're more storage. But most of all, I want access to my NCsoft account.

None. Besides the fact that it's real money for something I really don't need, I highly question Anet and their Support staff at this time.

A friend logged out, bought two panes for his account, tried to log back in and received notice he'd been terminated for "committing fraud" against Anet. Since all he'd done was buy two panes and the transaction had apparently gone through (as in, hadn't mis-typed cc numbers or anything since no error message came up), I cannot help but think their system is fubar. I happen to know he is of the highest integrity, so the charge is ludicrous. He's waiting to hear from Support (like that'll help).

I can pay for a new game once or twice per year, so when they add new stuff, I try to get as much as I can. I got all panels and the pet unlock pack.

I can't pay for features that will not be available forever, like monthly fees or separate expendable items (one of the reasons I chose GW 3 years ago) so I'm will never touch the 'pay per use' features, and I will never be able to use them.

All of them.

I've played this game 3 years now and was logged in at least a couple of days every week. I haven't played other game half as that and I paid more than I've spent in total with GW in these 3 years for some games that I've played for less than a month.

So money well spent, as someone said above. Still ANet should not get used to doing this micro thingie cause I don't plan to go along with it. 4 tabs costed more than a new expansion and I would have very much appreciated a new expansion instead.

Went along just this once. For the sake of the past

None of them

Cost is way too high and nothing "micro" about it. 4 tabs = a full normal chapter. You don't even get the makeovers and a name change with that, so I won't support price gouging on sundry items like that.

I may however buy a new character slot and make a pre-searing perma character.

I am very glad that Anet did give us at least one free tab.

The bag thing/zcoin is a fiasco/poorly done imo.

Love the menagerie and the traveler.

Bought a extreme makover
& a normal one

Didn't have to, But I wanted to, And also I know it costs a lot of money,
But for 4 years of gameplay, to pay a little isn't that bad.

i am not going to get any - i would rather buy a new character which would get more storage slots than spend money on something that would get me less.

I would buy them, but I don't want to integrate my account into a NCSoft master account; I would like the freedom to change my username from a useless email address.

Good one. Buying a new account, also gets you another free pane. Also another 5 traveler's gifts per week.

i bought 4 storage tabs, got the extra free pane, bought a makeover pack, and the animal unlock pack, that's 65$ including tax. I'm a happy camper... i support the price on storage. buying stuff is an option, ppl should really get over the price and stop whining like they need the price lower for themselves, if you really take time to whine in 3 different threads, maybe you should spend that time getting a job and working for the 10$ a pane, Anet stated they researched it through many depts. and 10$ was the best price.

If I want to pay $10 for storage, I'll just buy another char slot.
