I know the bank tab sale seems like a great deal, but don’t forget you can also create your own private guild with bank slots.

The first upgrade is 500 + 1000 + 1000 influence which can be bought for 5 gold and gives you 50 slots (non-soul/account bound items.)

The second bank can be bought for 5000 + 5000 + 10000 influence which can be bought for 40 additional gold and gives you 100 slots (non-soul/account bound items.)

You can buy the third bank slot for 20000 + 10000 influence, which would cost you 60 gold for 100 slots, but it would be better to start a new guild and pick up 150 slots for only 45 gold.

If you have a lot of tradable items and depending on how high the cost of gems get, it might be a better idea to choose a guild bank.

I believe you can have up to 5 different guilds, so if you’re already happy with one, you can have 4 bank guilds for pretty cheap.

Quick off the cuff calculations,
gw2spidy: 100 gems = 9.22 gold,
480 gems = 44.256 gold.
divided by 30 = 1.4752 gold per slot.
First guild bank = 5 gold per 50 slots
5 / 50 = 0.1 gold per slot (this has ALWAYS been a better deal than bank slots)
Second guild bank = 40 gold per 100 slots
40/100 = 0.4 gold per slot.
Third guild bank = 60 gold per 100 slots
60/100 = 0.6 gold per slot.

Save those gems for something better!

can’t put bound items in the guild bank so it is useless

Glad to see reading comprehension is still a high priority in our schools these days.

Personal guild banks are a great and cheap way to get storage. There are a few things to consider.

- Cannot store account bound items
- Guild upgrades are per server; if you need to transfer, you will have to empty the items, transfer, then re-buy the bank upgrades
- Be careful not to accidentally leave your guild
- You can only be in 5 guilds, this may be hard to fit in for some
