Here's the absolute collection of all of the possible holiday items that could be included in a "holiday storage"...

Halloween

Pumpkin Crown
Absinthe
Witches' Brew
Ghost-in-the-Box
Squash Serum

Wintersday

Santa Hat
Grenth's Antlers
Peppermint Shield
Gingerbread Shield
Gingerbread Focus
Candy Cane Sword
Candy Cane Axe
Candy Cane Bow
Candy Cane Staff
Candy Cane Wand
Unopened Grenth's Presents (remember, these don't stack with the Dwayna presents)
Unopened Dwayna's Presents (remember, these don't stack with the Grenth presents)
Candy Canes
Candy Cane Shards (for the complete collector)
Spiked Eggnog
Eggnog
Snowman Summoners

Preview Event

Tengu Mask

Dragon Festival

Dragon Mask
Jade Wind Orbs (for the hardcore collector)
Unopened Festival Prizes
Rice Wine
Red Bean Cakes

I count 28 items, and that doesn't even count the multiple hats for each character (5 more characters x 5 hats = 25 slots). Very easy to have a holiday storage at this point.

The only drawback for materials storage is that it only store 250 stack of certain items. It won't take more into one slot meaning that if you have 500 stack of ectos or shards, you can only place in 250 and the rest would be on your character slots.

'

peoples are lazy and like to complain? 50 Gold times 6.. that only 300 gold which is not hard to make. Hell, a crappy gold drop is usually around 300 gold and you can merchant it to the new upgrade.

What I meant is that the Grenth Presents don't stack with the Dwayna Presents. I've edited it to be more clear.

Added a crafting material storage upgrade for the Xunlai Agent storage vault. To purchase the upgrade, visit one of the new Xunlai Representatives in Shing Jea Monastery or Kaineng Center. (PvP characters gain access to the crafting material storage once any roleplaying character on the account purchases it.)
What about the people who don't have or want Factions?

It has been stated for a while now that this was going to be a Factions only update.

If you dont have/want Factions then you dont get/want the extra storage. If you do want the extra storage, then you get Factions. Its that simple.

I don’t want to spend another $50 or what ever it is now for another copy of GW that is poor compared to Prophecies. People have already paid for a copy of GW anyways, so why should Anet only put this on Factions; skills, characters, and terrain is completely understandable to only have in a expansion... but why keep an upgraded storage for Faction players only?

Yeah, without monthly fee, they need to release expansion chapters to rake in the profits. All 5 of my PvE characters has the new storage option but my ele who is like my mule is stuck at ascalon. Guess i won't transfer her material any time soon.

i have a mule at Ascalon only and all i did was empty the vault onto the other character (s) and dump her material (s) into the vault.

switch to a character with the tab , pick them up and toss them into the materials.

SIDENOTE

is anybody putting valuable items into the materials tab yet?


like ECTOS/SHARDS/RUBYS/SAPHIRES or are you going to wait a bit for a glitch to make them go poof? and play safe?

Yeah, how cheap of ANET to not charge a monthly fee and yet charge us 50$ for a new chapter. How dare they try to turn this into a business too.

And how dare they FORCE people to buy Chapter 2 JUST for the storage. We should all get what we want for free.

Note they say storage upgradeS- I think more of these will be coming- I would like to see a dye area, and an armor area for storing excess sets of armor. A good start though.

Other than having to pay 50g for each of my characters. Which is totally lame btw. I cannot access the materials storage tab while inside of my Guild Hall, and that is fkd up. I do all of my materials/items swapping while inside of my Guild Hall. Thats what I added it there for so I dont have to go to a gdamn town. If theyre going to do this update and have it only Factions based, then they need to have it recognize which campaign class is accessing the vault while inside of a guild hall so my fkn factions characters can use storage inside the hall.....
And they better not say you have to BUY a new Xunlai Agent for your hall to get the update.... If they do I want to be reimbursed.

Dont get me wrong, I thinks it great not having the fee, its the reason I bought guildwars over another game. But I just think only giving factions this wasnt the best choice.
