Bag acess

Hi, firts, sorry for my google trad english.

I am currently facing a small problem of storage space . A F2P player can get 2 bags from quests in addition of the starter bag, for a total of 60 slots. The personal bank allows you to have 16 + 8 accounts slots, and we can store 100 slots by mailing.

So a F2P player with two characters can use 60 + 60 + 16 + 16 + 8 + 100 = 260 slots slots.

From the perspective of a double refinement event, it is impossible to store all collectible refinement stones, because there are at least 40 types of refinement stones available in bound to character, bind to account and bind on equip, and this without counting enchants, runes, shards in their multiple collectible versions ( r1->r6 ).

So, the last cheap f2p storage option is the Dragon cult bag. But, the last time i try to do tiamat, I did meet a particular kind of players: campers.

Yes, a bag in AH cost "only" 200k. But, i'm the only skinflint in this game ?

A tip for help me ?

    The best way to store some extra items is the message system.
    It is also limited, but it is a nice place for some stacks.

    He already included the mail slots in the OP.

    Even if you're "f2p", that doesn't mean you can't earn AD in game and buy bags from the AH, or exchange for Zen and buy directly from the Zen store if the exchange rate makes that cheaper -- remember to look for "15% off any item" coupons.

    Another option is to create a personal guild -- get 4 people to help you form it, then kick them (tell them that's what you are planning to do up front). Guild bank tabs have 48 spaces each. I think the first tab costs 150k AD, and the price increases by 150k for each additional tab.

    Edit: People seem to have this misconception that "f2p" means you should be handed every thing you want. It just means you earn things by playing the game, invoking, selling items on the AH -- rather than spending real money for Zen. A f2p player can be BiS due to their own efforts: just look at Lazalia as an example.

    A way that I do not recommend that but I know people did that anyway is to create alt accounts for storage and mail stuff between accounts. However, as I said, I do not recommend that because eventually that will drive you crazy and you will wish you do not do that. My friend did that and he kept on creating new accounts. Those login/logoff, mailing, losing track who has what drove him insane (although he is a kind of organized person already).

    Yeah, i know, i understand perfectly your "f2p" conception, and i'm agree with you. In fact, my point is "they add a free bag slot with this mod, for all, why they not add a bag in game ? a loot like the dragon cult bag ?" and "there is to many refinement stones in this game".

    They add a bag slot because they want you to buy bag. They add more stuff to the game because they want you to dump small size bag and buy bigger size bag.
