In my opinion, the bank would be priced OK if it was account-wide, not per character.
I agree with this. Bank would be much better if it was treated as account storage that any character can access. Then you could justify the upgrade purchases, otherwise you're better off with a mule character (which can be gotten for free by just making another account).
Actually this is a very, very good point, which might actually cause PWE to stop and listen.
They should not be so much concerned with the fact that they get more total cash FROM BAG SALES by selling bags at $10 rather than at, say, $5.
What they should consider is that it is that if people decide not to buy storage space because it is so expensive, they are far less likely to buy either items as well.
the way I see it... if players think bags/bank slots cost to much to buy, then.... what makes Devs think that players will buy stuff to store in the limited bag/bank that they have, when not buying bags/bank space.
no space = no room to put things that you buy... shoot bags/bank slots should be like Champions Online, copper/silver/gold to buy, NOT ZEN!!!
Or make an event for near future with a bag as reward?
You don't have to give us a big bag, but a bag as a reward is waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than a star mask. Not as good as my skel puppy though! *Hugs puppy*

Bags are fine, you dont really need more than the 2 extra you get from leveling. Same deal in GW2 with extra bag slots (where you put the bags), not really needed.
You do get alot of inventory on you as it is in this game, since crafting and regular bags are split up, much like the bank in GW2. In NW your crafting inventory is your GW2 crafting bank. The only thing you need your regular bag for would be pots, injury kits, altars and gathering kits, thats 7 slots occupied. maybe 15 occupied in total if you bring buff pots and I.D scrolls.
I could see the bank becoming cheaper or account wide.

Getting account wide bank slots is pretty much a given. We already have items with account wide unlocks. The caturday xp scrolls, for instance. Previous Cryptic games have only allowed such items to be transferred by shared bank or account wide bank slots.
Im sure the code already exists. I expect they are waiting to bundle up such slots into larger projects. Similar to how CO tied the shared slots into Hideouts. You had to purchase the hideout to get the shared bank. Then if you wanted, you could purchase more slots.
I feel if they're gonna be giving out capes and masks at every event then they should give us clothing slots in the bank.....6 would be a good starter :cool:

It's a bit more time consuming, but instead of buying the small bag, which is only for 1 character, (which costs 600 Zen), buy 2 character slots for 500 Zen. Right out of the tutorial they have 30 inventory slots and 18 bank slots. Get them to level 7-8 and you'll get another 18 slots. Get them to around level 28-30 and there's another 12 slots EACH. Plus, y'know, you get a whole 'nother character to play if you so choose...

It does however cost zen to unlock the the bag slot that is required to equip extra bags. Costs less than what bags in Neverwinter cost.
ya, true ( I have CO life so I overlook the FtP bag slot limitation often )
Very much this, I would also buy bags if they were account wide (I'd even pay 15$ then).

So wait, you have to buy the bag and by the slot it goes in????

The only bug with it is that it can be put on the AH.
