Guild Wars 2

Maybe someone already knows this answer to this, but, it seems like there are a lot of new crafting materials, particularly for the scribe trade, that do not have a storage place in the crafting bank? Are there plans to include storage in the future, or do we just have to keep them in our account bank/storage guilds?

I’m sure they’ll add a storage for those in the next expansion or so. Grenth forbid they add a new material to the game and its storage in the deposit in the same patch.

This may sound stupid but maybe they are trying to hide how many materials are available for the scribe profession to make the experience more fun for players.

Of course its more convenient to immediately have a collectable slot in the bank but if you knew all the materials needed for the new profession then you would immediately start searching for them and farming them, while missing some important aspects of the game.

If someone wants to have the feel of discovery about a crafting profession he just doesn’t have to look at the storage or search up guides, he can do it simply by discovering. While others, who want to deposit things and see how many materials there are should have an option to see it.

This way everyone is keeping all the mats to themselves cause no one knows what is required, what is important and what is not. So the prices are extremely high for some things.

I am in agreement on both sides. I started crafting scribe stuff and quickly realized the amount of bank/inventory space this could quickly overtake.

To address the mat storage concerns, maybe they should just add an unlock feature to the storage. When you discover/craft the material, you unlock it. Granted, wiki will still ruin it, but at least it not all out there on day 1.
