Taxi’ing over my post from the discussion forum.

Please give us more tabs to buy in the gem store. The current rate of new loots and stuff i want to keep is too high for me to keep up with.

translation

“So with the addition of more loot types I am personally running out of space to dump my stuff without disorganizing other tabs. 44 characters strong and capped on bank tabs, I cannot possibly hoard anymore loot. Even though I desire to do so.”

@SKATE: Actually, they put back the guild bank access from the guild registrar.

While the pack rat in me agrees with you all, there’s a reason why game design restricts the amount of stuff players can store. Put simply, the more players are allowed to store, the more they will hoard. This can then lead on to flow-on effects where instead of selling their loot (especially things like raw materials), players will simply hoard the stuff instead of putting it on the market. This increases scarcity and prices, and while it’s good for TP flippers, you can probably imagine the rage it would create for the average player when there’s simply no supply of the particular skin or material they want on the TP, because someone always buys it up the moment it goes on sale and then hoards it for a future time.

If thats the case then why do we still have 64 character slots. Each character with 100 slots gives you 6400 slots to play with in total. The bank tabs only provide us with 30 slots. It’s useless to account for TP players since they theoretically have infinite space to hold their wares. Ontop of that most tp players dont hold onto items for longer than a day.

All I need is more tabs to keep everything organised. ATM im having to push everything together. I prefer to keep a tab for my Mawdrey pieces. Unused skins. Ascended loot I not yet have a purpose for. Specially with living world now tossing all these crests at me which I am saving for later patches. Space is limited. But the loot they throw at us gets more numerous in in type and volume.

Ascended mats and alternative currencies, stuff you want to keep a hold of but are as common as dirt.

If not more tabs to store it in why not put the currencies in the wallet. That would at the very least solve half my problem.

I’d be willing to pay 200 more gems for bank tabs beyond 12 tabs. Just saying.

Sounds like your issue is more so that you haven’t simply dealt with the stuff you’ve gathered than there being any actual issue with too much stuff. Such as your MF fodder and then some.

Boosters = Use Powder, you now just made the 8ish variations of boosters into 2.
Start refining or destroying your ascended materials.
Given there is 8 crafting professions 4 characters can learn 2 each. So you should have at least 1 character who could learn your recipes even if they can’t craft it now.

Even still, with the list of stuff you have there, how you’ve run out of 12 tiers of bank tabs is beyond me when i have alot more than whats listed there (as I also collect vanity items and rewards from say the LS like the Zephyr Sanctum.) Coupled with unused skins and the like and I’m not even at the 12 tier limit yet.

Alternatively, you can also make a Guild Bank for things like your overflow of t5 materials if you aren’t going to sell them. Along with anything else that isn’t account bound if you REALLY feel the need you must have more space.

Duty is heavier than death.

Sorry, the organizer in me wants to help:

Black lion chests, keys, boosters and mystic stones. – chests, you can always buy on the TP for ~free, so why store any?
Gemstore armor skin pieces and living world skin pieces. – I take it you’re running low on T charges? if not, just destroy them and if you want to apply a skin, use a T charge
Account bound exotics – throw them in the forge?
Pristine fractal relics. – why save them? there was that one recipe that called for them, but it’s unlikely we will have many of those. just double-click and turn them into regular reclis
Unidentified insect fossils. – if you don’t plan on making ambrite weapons, just turn these into Sandy Bag of Gear.
Blade shards. Oh so many shards. – at best, they would bring back the blade shard vendor, and 1 stack = 2.5 masterwork items. Would you store masterwork items in your bank? is a bank space only worth 5s to you? Similar for the ascended mats and ascended rings – if they ever do add a sink for those, it’ll probably be like 1 green item per stack, but we don’t know for sure, so we can’t put a value on those.

The rest of it is either “yeah, that should be in the bank” or “I’m not sure I would recommend it, but that could be saved”

When it comes down to it, bank tabs cost the same (in gems) as bag slots on character (although you’d have to spend a little gold for the 18 or 20 slot bags).

Bank Tab – 600 gems – 30 slots – 20 gems per slot
Bag Slot – 400 gems – 20 slots – 20 gems per slot

So if you HAD to, you could use one of those 44 characters as a “Bank Tab” character, fill him up with 20 slot bags (160 total slots), and it would cost you roughly the same as the bank tabs themselves (plus the gold for the bags, of course). Or use 18 slot bags to save 70-80 gold.

It’s not a perfect solution and I agree, I’d love more bank tabs myself; I’m no where near filling mine up (yet), but the hoarder in me knows that it’s just a matter of time. I hate to throw anything away, because I just KNOW that some time in the future, that stack of broken lockpicks will have a use… XD
