Not enough space in Profession Resources Bag

katamaster81899 · February 2015

Title says it all, I'm out now on preview. I only have 10-15 double stacks of resources too, so its not like we have a ton of extra space.

Are we going to get an expansion of this bag with all of the new resources being added on this module?

Oh yeah, absolutely vital with the new cap raise to 25.

I'm almost out of my asset space too on live for 1 character.

I had called this out previously, I think in a comment on the first set of patch notes, but I say again, adding more resources means we need more space.

I'm not so flush with assets, but can see it being a problem for people with a full stock of tools and dudes.

Edit: Actually a quick comparison via the Gateways shows that the resource bag has already been expanded, but not the assets.

Haven't confirmed an expansion myself, but when on preview yesterday, I was almost out of space. Don't need the same issue we had with currencies again, do we?

It's not a huge expansion, just bigger than it was. It probably does need to be bigger still, as my tester character wasn't carrying a stack of every possible resource.

The resource bag is supposed to be large enough to hold a stack of every resources + 6 slots extra for hoarders.

I haven't looked at the asset bag because '180 slots who will ever need more?'. If there are people running out just let me know and I'll see about making the asset bag bigger.

My main char is also my crafter of all kinds (he's got 6 skills at 20 and going at all skills maxed =3) So I have alot of resources on him, and I have to keep some of them on other characters because my bags are full - all the time =/. So for me more slots would be definitly useful! Especially with the new content there'll be more resources to get my hands on.

Edit: would it be possible to make it possible to transfer profession resources via shared bank? currently you can only mail them to your other characters.

Edit 2: I know some of my friends have the maximum amount of companions and they told me they cannot earn more because their idle bag is full. Would take be looked into as well?

I'm talking about both. Resources should have more than 6 slots for a hoarder - I stock up in preparation for events that use them (i.e. Wonders of Gond, Siege of Neverwinter). Mine is full already and I don't have space for all the new resources that have been dropping. Maybe you could add a few extra slots for hoarders like me.

And as for the assets bag, I buy stuff when i see it a cheap price, and it kinda piles up... I've had maybe 50 green alchemists at once before (someone was posting them 500ad each). So yeah, maybe up to 300 assets would be nice, or a bag that gets bigger as you add more items like we have for bounties and special currencies in the currency tab.

I am also near my max on a couple characters on live and for my most played, I have to continually commit to keeping his bag in order to not go over while out adventuring. I do cringe at the thought of my profession bags once I get them going through Mod 6 if it remains this way when it is launched.

I run into issues because, for example, I only have one trained tailor, so I tend to pile all my tailoring resources onto her if I'm feeling compelled to sort out the stuff, and this is fine as long as I've got her cleaned out of materials for the crafting she doesn't have trained... but if she opens her own stack of Leadership boxes, suddenly she's got a little pile of every possible prepared resource again or close to it. Mailing these things around my account to consolidate and make better use of space is an annoying and boring time sink, but occasionally necessary.

I do sell off some resources I'm not in imminent need of, but I also stockpile for events. And it turned out that my hoarding of coal and salt and ore and pelts was beneficial to levelling Jewelcrafting. So it goes.

I'm of the same mind on this. Even though some of my characters also have same professions, only one character for each profession is my "master" for that profession. Else, I'd never stop running to the bank and character hopping to get resources from all my other toons. There's just too many resources and assets and not enough space.

On the asset department, it would help if same quality assets would stack with each other. Resources.. we just need more space or a major consolidation to overall varying types of resources each profession uses.

I run out of bag space on some of my toons too. It is annoying having to mail profession resources between characters.

Increased space would be nice but I'd rather have a shared profession resources storage space. That'd be cool!

Here's how you make more money.

Put a shared Professions tab in the personal bank. Then add Profession tabs to the guild banks that we can purchase with AD.

I tell you, if you put in 8 spaces to start, then sold 8 more for about 500 ZEN, you'd easily get another $50 out of me...that I'd be happy to fork over

Shared Profession Resource storage seems like a good idea for personal housing or guild housing. I would love it if I didnt have to figure out which assets/tools/resources were on which character and move them around.

Then again, make professions useful and a lot of this storage issue goes away. Need something to eat up resources.

To THAT end, I remember WoW had a server wide, cross faction "quest" to turn in supplies to aid in the war effort. You could turn them in and get a little XP, and support a concentrated effort to unlock the temple.

Perhaps something like this could be implemented to eat up resources?

Definitely running out of space on my main SW on live, and had him just since August... Expanding the resource bag space would be awesome! :cool:

Don't worry, you'll get a bag expansion for four easy payments of $19.99! Seriously though, I've never really had bag space issues before, all of a sudden my bag is bursting at the seams.

mstrssihr · February 2015

I need more slots please

! TY!
