Guild Wars 2

I really like the shared inventory slots, was wondering if maybe it was possible to do the same for gathering tools so people can use unlimited tools across all toons.

You can use the shared slots for that now. You just have to manually swap when you log on/before you log off.

i would like it, but how would it work for those with multiple sets they bought for the animations? Let’s say they have 2 sets. One is on one char for the theme of that char. If they put the other set in the account wide harvesting slots it would override the character specific tools.

I foresee great wailing and gnashing of teeth in the forums from the owners of multiples if this was put in.

I know, but since your are limited in how many shared inventory slots you can have, I think a separate set of slots where you equip tools would be nice.

I actually have 2 sets as well, but I bought them a long time ago. Still I think this would be a nice addition since there are also many people who only have one set and would want a more convenient way of sharing them across their account. I suppose they can make it so whichever tools are in the shared tool slots take priority and will be the ones that are used (level restrictions permitting).

I would like that, too. I tried putting my endless tools in the shared slots, but I was forever forgetting to swap them out before changing characters. Then I had to remember who had them last. Bother. I gave up.

I only have 1 extra mining tool. Everyone else buys the disposables, and I have 17 toons on my main account (FYI).

That does sound like an inconvenient way to go, plus with the limited shared inventory slots we can have, it would bring you down to 7 assuming you buy the max allowed.
