Guild Wars 2

+1 to OP – This is a fantastic idea.

heres a post i made in a previous topic with the stuff you requested removed:

“yes please. And mystic forge stones, Augur stones, bloodstone shards, philosophers stones, crystals, as well as numerous cooking ingrediants made from other cooking things (balls of dough etc)

honestly any of those would be helpful."

i will always +1 these topics

Yes please.
I don’t want to have to keep buying bank slots for all the random goodies that the endless bags in the game shower me with.

I don’t do crafting much anymore unless I really need gear, but definitely +1’d

Buying bank slots = buying gems.
Buying gems = giving ANet real life money (for some people anyhow)

This is why your request will not happen.

By the way, if you need more storage, the most cost effective way is to create a personal guild for storage. It’s significantly cheaper to get a personal guild up to 250 slots versus getting the same amount of storage from bank tabs or increased bank stack size upgrades. Of course account bound and soulbound items can’t go there.

I have 4 storage guilds with 250 slots each. They are roughly half full. I like it that way as it makes them easier to organize when they aren’t so full.

Foxfire

Seconded

I don’t think we should make a list — I want ANet to make the list.

• If something is used primarily for crafting, it ought to be with the other materials in the account vault. (Foxfire, doubloons, blade shards — they are only used for forging or crafting.)
• If something is used primarily as a currency, it should go into the wallet. (Geodes and bandit crests are only used as currency.)

Even if ANet added 30 (or 60) free account vault slots for those items that don’t follow the above pattern, it’s still takes time to keep track of it — time that could better be spent playing the game. I’d like to spend less time in the Inventory Management Simulator and more time in Tyria.

You can add Mystic Clovers, Vision Crystals, Gifts of XXXXX and any other materials required for crafting that don’t have their own material storage slot to that list too.

While i can see the point for foxfire clusters, geodes and bandit crests going into the material storage/wallet, doubloons are upgrade components, not crafting materials.

Blade Shards are only used for forging, not crafting.

The Gift of Blades and some of the sigil, rune, and utility recipies would like to have a word with you about that .

Doubloons are upgrade components which are also used by various crafting disciplines. They all give a bonus to Boon Duration.png Boon Duration and can be applied to any kind of equipment.

Vial of Condensed Mists Essence, Glob of Coagulated Mists Essence and Vial of Condensed Mists Essence also are only used for forging and AB.

Point is that they take a lot of space in the bank and we have only 12 bank tabs (which are mostly occupied by tonics, toys, boosters and other AB staff).

OK, my wording was off.
Blade Shards are categorized as mystic items, and doubloons as upgrade components.
They are not crafting materials.

to be fair, mystic coins are also mystic items and doubloons are suspiciously similar to gemstones

some months ago there was a post about the new items to store into the materials collection and the a new wallet for the new valute. here’s the link

ps: not my project

I disagree. ANet might label them as ‘upgrade’ components, but they are also crafting materials. Doubloons are used as crafting materials (copper+iron -> luck sigil or copper+stufkittenunstone). Thus, they have more in common with gemstones than they do with sigils/crests/runes.

I can’t see the difference between Blade Shards & Mystic Coins — both can only be used in the Mystic Forge, but one has a slot in the Account Vault’s material tab. So again, ANet might label them differently, but ANet is inconsistent about all sorts of naming conventions.

Anyhow, that misses the main point I was trying to make: ANet could reduce the time people spend on managing inventory by:

• Increasing the number of vault slots for items that are hoarded to craft or forge, but aren’t used for anything else (or only rarely).
• Decrease the number of items that only have use as a currency.

tl;dr I don’t care what ANet (or the community) uses as labels for ‘stuff’; I’d just like to see less ‘stuff’ cluttering everyone’s inventory.

(Full disclosure: this isn’t a big problem for me. I’m pretty good at managing my inventory, finding creative ways to store/hoard, and good at letting go when I run out of room. So, this will merely make my gaming time more pleasant. I’m thinking about all the people I know that lack the time or the skill set to play an Inventory Management Sim; it is they who would benefit the most from this general change.)

PS Despite my passion on the topic, I do think ANet has done a great job to-date reducing the amount of inventory management. Deposit-to-collections, bank expanders, collection expanders, and guild vaults — all of those make this game much more fun to play than many competitors and nearly every single-player game I’ve seen to date. I’m just hoping they can go one step beyond the status quo to complete their work.

Had a thought that may or may not be useful, posted it here

i think they could start addressing this problem and several others this way

ruby orbs are also upgrade components, whats your point? doubloons could be easily added to the material storage.

If that was true they would never have created the wallet either, so everyone would still have bank tabs full of dungeon tokens and WvW badges.
