Guild Wars 2

I love the new currency wallet, with a couple of exceptions, as follows:

1. I absolutely HATE having all my gold available to me all the time. I LIKE having some in a bank that I have to consciously go to in order to purchase big ticket items. It allows me to be better able to save. I’d really like the gold to go back to the old system. It was already account wide, and allowed for long term in game monetary planning.

2. Pristine Fractal Relics – are these not also a currency? Why were they not included?

3. Gems – Really? It’s listed at the BL TP, it’s listed at the bottom of our inventory panel. Does it really need to be listed again?? Just a bit redundant in my opinion.

4. Wallet Interface – I believe it would be better served if it was relocated. This is a picky point, but it is WAY too big, in my opinion. We don’t need huge pictures. Since we carry it with us all the time, I honestly think it would be better served as a tab below the bags on the inventory pane. This would also make it easier to check while doing other tasks. Having it in the H screen makes it very cumbersome and harder to look at on the fly, since it basically blocks out the entire screen.

Other than that, I am THRILLED!!! I love the fact that I just freed up almost an entire bank vault tab from all the stuff I was storing. Thanks for implementing!

You can see it from the inventory. Just hover over the bottom of the inventory and you will see a window showing everything in our wallet, but with small icons.

That is good. I do not, however, see the necessity of cluttering up the Hero panel with a wallet tab if it is all there in the inventory. Just my opinion… and the rest of my post still stands.

I would prefer that, too, actually. Makes way more sense to me.

As for your list, I would like to add,

• Please add event-based currencies to the wallet. It makes little sense to have a wallet for some currencies, but not others.

I agree with you on the first two points, especially the first one. I really prefer to be able to manage my money by keeping only a small part of it on me at each time. That is what I do in real life and would like to be able to do it in game as well

Oh My Gods, This…. This SOOOOOOOOO Hard!

I have 3 bank tabs full of holiday / event / festival / flavor of the (bi)week currencies.
It is getting pretty ridiculous.
Adding them to the wallet would also be a good opportunity to migrate all of the tickets and other temporary currencies from Soul Bound to Account Bound.
That would allow players to manage these items effectively and solve the rage associated with getting a Soul Bound currency on a character that cannot effectively utilize it.

Yeah, the standard currencies really weren’t the problem for me in the first place. But every month, ANet comes up with 1-4 additional currencies (last month alone we got kite fortunes, fortune scraps, golden scraps, support tokens, support badges Kiel, support badges Gnashblade, Black Lion scraps and Black Lion tickets)

1. Since I use a lot of alts, this feature is actually useful for me. But maybe they should let you deposit a portion of it in your bank and have universal character access for the rest.
2. If you can buy something with them, then yeah, they should be included, so I agree.
3. Eh, redundancy’s no big deal. The wallet is FAR better than the prior system so that’s a very minor issue to me.
4. It is a tab below the inventory. And it’s in the Hero window. I like options, so I’d like to keep them. You don’t need to go to the Hero tab if you don’t want to. I also like how it effectively shows what level you need to be for the dungeons on lower-level characters in currencies that you don’t have yet in the Hero panel.

You don’t get half as much of the new currencies as the standard ones, though (so there is less of a reason to include them). But yes, they are a problem.

I don’t know, I usually end up with stacks and stacks of event currency, but never with stacks and stacks of laurels or dungeon tokens…?

Interesting. I intend on getting stacks of dungeon currency for armor/weapons (already halfway to a stack in three currencies and barely started dungeons), but I can hardly get 10 of some event currencies (kite fortunes and those other fortune thingies that I only ever got one of). And I hardly ever reach a stack of event currencies. But that’s just a difference in the way you and I play Maybe there can be something done with them.

I play living world content and PvE a lot more than dungeons, it’s true.

But even if I started to run daily dungeons, the sheer amoung of tokens needed to complete just one outfit would mean that it would take months before the dungeon tokens even begin to seriously pile up…
