Item Storage - Improvements and Discussion
Overlord07
Players should have the ability to buy more slots in their storage bins. Something like 5k for another 5 slots. I know this would indeed make the servers much more crowded with items, but this would better allow players to keep items they need the space for. Of course, there would have to be some limit to the size of your storage bin, but it would still help to have a storage bin twice as large as the one you begin with. Just a thought.

This has been brought up many times. Yes, it would be nice to have more storage. I have learned to shuffle items around between characters, and to store things on characters when not in use, thereby keeping my vault nearly empty. I can then use the vault to shuffle items or to free up storage space on a character before using it. Yes .... a hassle .... but it works.

I'm sure in FPE a bigger storage will be made.

More...storage...plz!...*dies of carrying so many items*
MORE! Plz! Lol. My Ranger and my Warrior are stuffed to the max. ><"

it bewilders me why they can't put in something analagous to a 'superior' rune of storage to increase bag size
but I think most of us realize this is because they'd rather have us purchase more keys

I was wondering if people that purchased Factions as a addon to their existing account get more storage space, I mean they rip us by only giving us only 2 more character slots so they should make it up by giving us another 20 storage slots. And then give us the 2 other character slots, what's with that anyway?
quickmonty
With 2 new characters (backpack, pouch, bags with runes of holding) you get 90 more storage slots.

I feel sorry to those who only buy factions (without prophecies)... poor things, lol.
Rayea
ah, but those that buy factions only will have only factions stuff to save...theres not *quite* as many things from what ihave seen.
tru theres the faction armour, but i have a feeling most players will be having ony one set of *good* faction armour and maybe one spare.
*those that are choosing a permanent side i mean*
i hear tell that they (a net) might be introducing or incorperating the guild stash in factions...(i REALY hope they do that

I'm pretty sure they do... If you can traven from Tyria to Cantha, then Xunlai should be able to magically transport the gear before you arrive.
Rayea
oh they probably *could*....
but knowing them, its more of a 'what will you paye me to do it?'
*meaning the xunlai, rather. i mean, they charge you 50 gold per character..well i guess thats better than charging every time you open your store....(stuffs jacket in mouth, incase they get the idea) ahem*

But 5k for just 5 slots? It cost 50g to get access to 20 slots so it should be 50g for another 20.

My guess is that if they gave us, say, another 20 slots then in a month (maybe less) someone would be whining for more storage!

I say let items stack!
The same items should stack(cept for weapons ofcourse) and stacks should be increased to 500 or 999. That alone will solve alot of item issues, weapon mods, runes etc should be able to be stacked. As well as salvageable materials, I mean some of them CAN be stacked, so I dunno why not all of them.

well they could impose a slot caped limit if they wanted....
best way is to add more *kinds* of storeage....
Guild HALL stash.....allows for storeg of stuff *in the ahll itself, access only when you have a guildhall*
Guild Stash....pirchaceable when you vane a guild *does not need cape/hall...can be accessed in towns/outposts*
Personal Locker...item store upgrade for guildhalls....*holds 10 slots per character, not per player acount...only accessed in guildhall...best for storing your fave st of armour...if guild is disolved/shut down, retreavable from Xunlai storeage Master*
Dye Box...personal dye store...buyable from xunlai...*a 10 slot store for dyes only....is per account rather than per player*
Materials Store....personal storeage area that stores all the *common* materials....*is account based*
Special Storage Space.....a questable only item, this is a safe magical storeage for those special holiday items only...*account based...store all your holiday items here....if theres not enough room for all your items (and that includes the hats ect that are customised now per character) you pay the xunlai gold for a few extra slots....100gp per 2 slots....maximum slot limit is 50 per single acount, another 50 is alowed per joined chapter*
i mean i guess if they realy WANT a in game gold sink....pay for storeage slots and storeage add ons is a great way to go ^^

We all wish they would make more storage, but i have a feeling they wont for hoarding reasons, or some other take advantage kind of thing. Thats probably why the stack limit is 250.
But hell I'd even appreciate just one more row of storage

I recently got rid of every single crafting item i had in storage, freed up a hell of a lot of space (except the 230 steel ingots anyway).
The problem is not the crafting materials etc, its the amount of spare armours/weapons you need. My Warrior has atm, 5 pairs of gloves, 2 helms, 3 shields, 2 axes, 1 sword, 1 hammer that i keep with her all the time. My Ranger has about 3 billion bows, 1 sword 1 shield, 4 masks, 2 gloves. The ele has it even worse. 1 full set of 55 armour, 1 set of focus/rod for each element, 4 3rd eyes.
Obviously sticking all this crap in storage before i took them out would be better but theres just not enough space. My necro is holding 4410 wood for christ sake! (to be sold if someone wants it
) He has about 5 free slots inc/ a Beautiful Pearl that for some reason i don't wanna get rid of...Would definatly like to see some extra character specific storage in towns. Even my storage char is out of space because i can't shift all these crappy tomb greens.

You can also put storage on a PVP character give it bags etc, just don't delete him, give it a odd name your have to type with a ton of spaces to remind you.

I like the idea of a Guild Stash that allows you to drop off weapons that you dont want for your guildies, perhaps set a limit on how much they can pick up each day and limit what level they have to be to get a freebie. Because you know there will be people that abuse it and run in and take stuff just to sell.
quickmonty
Any guild storage access would need to be restricted to leader and maybe officers to prevent someone from joining guild to clean out the storage. (or rename game to Guild Raids )

Sai of Winter
I had this idea for adding more storage in our inventory for quite sometime. Here's a crappy diagram I made up
The idea is to add tabs to the side of our inventory and have 45 storage space to each tab or more. Maybe we could implement this to our Vault box too.
But I'm sure someone has a better idea.

I think it should be made that you can take off baggs with items in them, that way, we would have infinate storage, just think one bag can hold 10 items, with 10 more bags in the first all holding 10 bags, thats like 1000 spaces (thats wrong i know)
Dougal Kronik
The more you have the more you will use/need.
I too desperately need more storage. Over 3 characters (1 is my Factions character) I had 2 slots free when I went a run with Guildies to Grenth's Footprint. They had a good laugh whenever I had a drop - drop an item, pick up creature drop, salvage, pick up my dropped item. Makes for a really long run.
I like any idea that gives me more storage space!!

I have 2 characters filled to the brim with stuff, my storage is full save for 2 spaces to transfer stuff between chars.
Bags being detached with items in them is a really good idea, but I don't mind paying for more storage. Um....mabye 2k for 5 spaces though.

well furiousfunk, thats another reason why all guild reated stashes need 3 settings....
defalt setting......only the guildleader can take out..anyone in guild can add.
setting 2 *manualy set up* guildleader and officers can take out, anyone in guild can add
setting 3 *manual setup* anyone in the guild can take out or put in
there would, admitedly need to be other safeguards...to prevent hacked characters taking all gold/items from the stash.....i wont list those i think are nesicary here (would be a long post of info lol)
bottomless chests and placing bags of stuff with stuff inside is a BAD idea....
like neverwinter and Nordock....those damn chests used to swallow my stuff on a regualr basis...one LAG hicup and *Gulp* there goes all my crafted items >.<
oh, another thing..only regestered guildmembers (not guests) could look at the stashes...saves someone joining up ust to get what the *Know* you have in the stash...

you get about double the storage capacity of your storage unit on a fully (storage) upgraded character.
With additional character slots, either accompanied by expansions, or bought with the new buyable character slots, you have plenty of storage improvement options. Even if your playing 8 characters regularly, your bond to have enough room between the lot of them and then some on your storage unit to carry everything you need.
You have a storage improvement option, are you willing to pay for it?

Rayea
true, but a lot of peeps would rather pay for a extra box rather than just buy yet *another* mule character.....
for a start, they could offer (once you got to LA or maybe the Henge) an Major and Superior Rune of Opening....if a standard costs 500gp, a Major might cost 1500 and a superior might go up to 5k (if they wanted it to be just a gold sink, i mean the price would be up to them)
(so each bag...bag+Rune+Majour+Sup=20 slots altogether)
and since you can have 2 bags....a total of 40 slots.....plus it would be a little goldsink, since they seem popular....
we (the fourm going monkeys ect) have already sugested loads of ideas for better storeage, ranging from guild store, GHall stores, better space management, extra purchaseable bags, the runes in more than standard, buying more *other* stores or even questing for them.....just buying another char slot as a mule will only work a tempry mesure

More runes of holding! Make your bags able to carry as much as a backpack.
Evilsod
Better runes of holding do seem like a good idea. It would sorta make the Belt Pouch look stupidly out of place.
I myself have a 2nd account with a mule on it. The moment i created her she became doped up to the eyeballs on crappy Tomb Greens. I'm still selling the bleeding things now. Still, its a different account so awkward to sort out, i eventually just flogged all my materials to the traders (except the Steel Ingots, i can't be arsed to press 'Request Offer' ' Sell' 240 times) and have to do the tedious task of throwing everything in there before i go hunting.
We really do need seperate areas to store armour and weapons for characters. Perhaps a small (10 slots maybe) extra area for customised items only. You know things aren't gonna be good when your warrior has 5 gloves, 2 helms, 4 shields, 5 weapons
Your ele has 4 wands, 5 focus, 5 3rd eyes, 1 other set of armour and
Your ranger has 4 masks, 2 gloves, 2 boots, 1 shield, 1 sword and a shed load of bows.
Seriously all that crap you NEED to be flexible in PvE. If i'd wanted to be a particular type of character the whole game without the chance for change i'd of gone to play Diablo 2.

We need more space, even more so, now that we will be able to buy more character slots and therefore have more characters. More characters thus, means that you will have more stuff to use or store.

Hmmm.....The belt pouch....
Maybe a double belt pouch? Holds twice as much. Or a belt pouch that goes all the way around you. Holds 4 times as much.

Free Storage for customized items.
Why? - the reasons are multifold. First you can have as much armor as you want, letting it be an actual gold sink to many players. second it sweetens the deal on customizing items without affecting pvp. Complaining about not enough room now? well... just customize it instead of losing it. This will give alot more space to most players, and more storage is needed for the extra ones in factions. I dont know about you but my xunlai is always full. Also holiday items will be free since they are customized.

My inventory is so stuffed with all the collectordrops 
temp
with the addition of 2 new character slots and the ability to buy new character slots i think, that after the 4 primary slots, storage should relate to the number of character slots u have and how many campaings u can use.
If u have only used 4 character slots or less u have default
If u have used 5 u get 1 or 2 extra rows in storage
If u have used 6 u get another 1 or 2 rows in storage
same thereafter
if u own only prophercies u get what is stated above
if u own factions u get another 1 or 2 rows in total
if u buy the next campaign u get another 1 or 2 rows
this compensates for event items/new greens/new stuff
a new character only requires about 2 rows in storage [or less]
"Good idea Temp"

It's easier to just remove items from storage. If Anet gives us 30 slots, there will be posts wanting 40. If Anet gives us 100 slots, there will be posts wanting 200. If Anet gives us 1,000 slots, there will be posts wanting more.
Don't get me wrong more storage would be nice, but no matter what they give us, players will just keep more and more stuff and still complain about lack of storage. I'd be happy if they would let us keep 5 bags in storage with items in them.
