Guild Wars 2

Since not everybody likes the extra inventory management needed when using “invisible” bags just for preventing minis to be deposited every time (extra inventory management being that items no longer compact well, crafting materials that happen to end up in an invisible bag no longer get deposited either which is a pain etc), it would be really nice if minis had an option to prevent them (individually) from being deposited when the “deposit all collectibles” function is used.

It would be wonderful if right-clicking a mini in (any type of) bag would show an option that prevents it from being deposited when you just mean to deposit your ores and wood and stuff.

I LOVE the “deposit all collectibles” feature but as it is, it has this unwanted side effect.

As it is now, I and many others can’t be bothered taking an invisible bag just for 1 or 2 minis and they eventually end up in a collections tab that is mostly just accessible in cities. I rarely see anyone with a mini. Pity!

Another thing is, minis stack. Why on earth do they stack?!? I thought getting a second mini of the same type would prevent the second one from being deposited but that ain’t the case, I got 2 of the new risen priests out of jewelry boxes and they’re both sitting at the collections tab. And they’re there to stay until I don’t have to pick it up every time after depositing the ores, wood, herbs, gems and leather clogging up my bags.

Invisible bags are used very often by many characters for several reasons, not just minis. Have you ever bought a mini-pack or tried to use them in the forge? You get a lot of multiples, a lot! I am glad they stack otherwise they would not be able to go to the collection tab which means they would be taking precious bank space. Count your lucky stars, the double-click feature on them used to deposit them instead of using them but that was fixed. The reason most players won’t carry minis is because they value that single slot of invo space far more than a mini.

What you actually want isn’t an extra menu item when right clicking. You want what some other people have suggested, a mini slot in the character sheet, so you can effectively equip a mini and have it exempt from your inventory and always active.

That would solve all the problems at once.

Hadn’t even thought of that but yeah, that would be wicked! But I’d be happy with the rightclick-menu-option too as it wouldn’t limit you to 1 mini/character.
