Guild Wars 2

I understand 20-slot bags are a luxury, and luxuries aren’t supposed to be cheap. But I think I speak for everyone when I say this thing is overpriced. To go from an 18-slot to a 20-slot costs an additional 8 gold. That’s 8 gold for two inventory slots.

Surely this thing could be priced at 4 or 5 gold and still function well enough as a gold sink? I’d argue the lower price would lead to more purchases and thus it would actually remove more gold from the economy if it were cheaper.

It’s a gold sink. An effective one at that.

If you don’t think 2 slots is worth 8g, then don’t get it. You can always purchase 20 slot bags with Fractal Relics.

Yes, I know. I stated as much in my post.

That you very much for the advice.

I’m not saying the OP is right, but (like all boxes that grab specific items) the boxes you get from fractal relics won’t sort, so they’re kind of useless for general storage.

On the contrary, I have both the Uncommon (Masterwork) and Rare (Rare) versions. I put them as my final two bags and stuck a Mystic Salvage Kit at the first slot of the Rare bag.

All items that go in the Uncommon bag are saved for Mystic Forge.

All items that go in the Rare bag are salvaged immediately.

All items that are not in either of those bags gets sold (I have Invisible Bags for my own stuff).

Quite handy, indeed.
