Guild Wars 2

It’s really out of control. I have multiple bank tabs full of items I can’t sell, can’t salvage, can’t Mystic Forge, and which are too kittenty to be worth equipping or have no use. We need to at least allow salvaging of these items to clear space.

Includes (but not limited to):
Crafter Backpacks (the skins are cool, the items are not useful due to low stats)
Items gained from the personal story (level up)*
Items gained from the story (special, ie Broken Caladbolg)
Former event items that are no longer of use (Levvi’s Device, etc.)
Collection items (the unsellable ones)
Account bound materials (airship oil, auric dust, etc.)

*Can be forged but isn’t worth it since they are low level and thus can’t give you a precursor for the cost of 4 exotics

Delete them?

Seriously. why keep stuff you aren’t going to use and can’t sell?

I agree with Bruno, most of the stuff you listed I would delete.

Especially equipment awarded by the story – it’s soulbound so you can’t pass it to an alt and it can’t be sold or salvaged. Some of it can go in the Mystic Forge but as you said it’s not worth holding onto it to do that. So as soon as my character has something better I delete it.

At this point I only keep equipment if it’s ascended and has stats I think I’ll want in future or it’s level 80 exotic and has selectable stats. Until my characters are level 80 I just use whatever they get as drops and rewards. At level 80 I immediately get them a full set of exotics. So the selectable stat stuff may save me a bit of time/money, but even then if I was really short of bank space it’d be the first thing to go.

Of the stuff on your list the only ones I’m holding onto are Broken Caladbolg (only because I suspect we’ll be able to do something with it later on) and Levvi’s Device, just in case I need it again. I may well delete both of those in future if I decide I don’t need them any more.

The backpacks I’d give to a character or delete (the skins are already in your wardrobe so no need to keep the items just for that). Not sure what collection items you’re referring to but likewise if I can’t use or sell them I’d delete them.

Same for account bound materials – If you’re keeping them in the bank I assume you’ve got at least 250 in the materials tab. If you need more than that…well was it difficult to get the ones you’ve got now? Probably not, so you can always get more.

(I do have a few items I keep purely for nostalgia like 1 Gift from Scarlet and the various journals. But I only have a few of them and it’s because I’ve decided, each time I go through my bank, that I want to keep each one.)

Just get rid of them then.

A – You just told us that you have zero use for these items, and you won’t be equipping them anyway so why are you keeping them in the first place?

B – If the items really are as worthless as you say then how would removing the account bound status do anything? No one else would want them except for the HoT stuff (airship oil etc…)
