Before ascended gear, and before I started getting a number of legendary weapons, if you had a full set of bags and used FotM boxes for 3 of your slots everything sorted so nice.

SO, with the addition of ascended gear and now that enough time has passed to allow some people to get a legendary collection I suggest releasing a bag/box that these two rarity levels will auto drop into.

If not, it would be nice if they would auto drop into the exotic FotM box at least for those of us who have replaced a large amount of our exotic gear because we all know FotM exotic box isn’t filling up fast with drops.

Opinions?

I don’t find Ascended drops frequently enough to warrant a bag. Legendary weapons do not drop at all.

What problem are you attempting to solve with this suggestion.

Not drops, from weapon swapping and/or armor swapping. For instance, if you swap from 2 one handed weapons to a 2-handed weapon one weapon will replace the weapon you swap with and the other goes various places depending upon what bags are full. When you carry dual asc or leg like axe/axe or any other combo of one handed weapons things start scattering around. Once you are carrying dual Moot, dual Frostfang, Rodgort, Howler, etc.. etc.. and various asc weapons it tends to get messy. For my engi it is not as big of an issue, but for my war, guard, and ranger it is annoying.

Simply add 1 new item that can be purchased with FotM relics that is 20 slot for asc/leg, problem fixed. There are not enough things to spend relics on anyway for people who constantly run fractals so put the cost at like 400 relics or something.

So you want something similar to weapon slots in Guild Wars 1. That would be nice but that is also why we have weapon swapping. It is not there for balance reasons.

Still, I wouldn’t mind a third/fourth weapon set on my Guardian… Or a second on my Ele. -__-;

(I think it’s kind of obnoxious how some classes are gated behind having one weapon set, especially considering GW1 let everyone have four…)

I don’t disagree with you. Perhaps they can add it but only allow it to swap out of combat.

Hell, I’d be fine with that. Would be one less step to having to open my inventory and find specifically which item in my sea of items I want to equip instead.

Maybe have the ability to add things other then weapons. Wait a minute. This is starting to sound like the utility slot that was suggested earlier.

WHAT? NO NO NO, you guys got this all wrong. Before ascended and legendary weapons were added with the additionof FotM boxes a player could achieve perfect ordering of their inventory. It was nice, clean, neat, everything where I wanted it. NOW, legendary and ascended weapons since they are not master, rare, or exotic rarity class go into a normal bag, a standard equipment bag with blues, or if those are full whatever bag it can get a slot in when switching out weapon sets.

SO, I am proposing the addition of 1 new type of bag. A bag that all ascended and legendary items will go to directly. This way when I swap out weapon sets from bag to player the weapons go back where I want them instead of all over the place.

All I am asking for is the continued organization I had before ascended weapons/armor came out and I collected a bunch of legendary weapons. This would also work for when swapping out ascended rings, amulets, etc…

And again, if not adding a new class of bag/box it would be nice if all of these types of items would go directly into an exotic FotM box because this one only fills when I’ve been lazy and haven’t cleaned inventory for a while.

I’d rather be able to combine the rare and exotic fractal bags to create a rare+ bag: any gear above rare quality automatically goes into that bag – be it rare, exotic or ascended (legendary gear does not drop, sorry). The current bag for just exotics just stays empty for me. :s

I don’t even use the tier-specific bags. Frankly, I don’t see much of a point to them. I just keep an equipment box as my last bag, then when I swap weapons, any offhand items go straight to there. Of course, other gear will go straight there too, so it’s a little inconvenient, but… well, I’m not swapping weapons THAT often that it’s a bother.

I know Legendary does not drop, but IT DOES DROP in my bag when I swap weapons….

My equipment bag fills up with blues super fast. I don’t get that many rare weapons either and very few exotics but my exotic bag used to be full of spare armor/weapons sets but the amount of exotics I carry on most characters anymore is very small. I do let my rares build up usually before I run them through the MF or salavge them though.

The tier-specific bags are very helpful for me. It keeps everything clean and saves a lot of time. If you farm events a lot and salvage lots of stuff it is nice having things separated out. The functionality of those bags has just become even more useful with the new TP design.

I also run a full set of bags on these characters so if another tier bag did come out I’d probably quit carrying the craftsman’s bag and allow crafting stuff to go into a non-specific bag and oiled junk bag. With the fairly new ability to increase stack sizes in the bank I rarely ever go over so depositing quickly makes that stuff go away.
