Do you think NWO should have additional separate bag for quest items only?

...though it's really a nice idea.
They should simply increase bag slots, since for us to add more bags, we have to buy them anyway.
But given that Cryptic made the older 24 slot bags BtC "to protect us" which I am sure purely coincidentally happened at almost exactly the same time that they released new larger bags, I think the chances are near to zero.
Not to mention the laughable justification for the change in the enchanting system "to free up space" which now means we have about two dozen new items compared to what we had before. Admittedly this might simply be down to pure incompetence though.
RP should be on the "Currency / Riches" tab, plain and simple.
"But Nehe, RP isn't a currency..."
Not anymore it's not, now that everything has been bound in a transparent effort to coerce players out of their Zen... But let's look at what ELSE is listed as a "Currency", shall we? Medallion of Battle....bound. Coins of Waukeen.....bound. Tarmalune "TRADE" Bars....bound. Campaign currencies....all bound.
Now, let's look at the definition of currency:
[kur-uh n-see, kuhr-]
noun, plural currencies.
1. something that is used as a medium of exchange; money.
As you can see, RP certainly fits the bill there. A "medium of exchange" can be construed in many a fashion, but the most prevalent is that it's used to exchange for a fun, action based game that is viable for casual players, time invested players, and paying players alike, for a monotonous game that alienates the players without vast amounts of either temporal or monetary resources and makes the sole focus one of massive accumulation of a completely unrelated item to player advancement, questing, or any deviant form of play that doesn't involve gathering RP the primary focus of logging on.
In short, RP is a currency which allows you to exchange Dungeons & Dragons for FarmVille.
So, by definition, it is certainly permissible to add it to the "Currency" tab.
Unlikely to get it.
I tend to work on more than 1 quest at a time. I've had 8 different stacks of quest items taking up space in my inventory. If I choose to move to another zone before completing those quests, to work on helping a friend or guildie, those quest items will continue to take up inventory space, alongside whatever quest items drop while I'm helping my friend. It can add up pretty quickly.
Pooling up DR and Shar quests over three to seven days will net you 12-15 slots blocked with quest items. And then I've not even taken a single step into Icewind Dale...
When I was doing Dread Ring dailies, it was way more efficient to pick them all up through the week and then bang them all out at once on the weekend. What you miss in repeats, you gain in less pointless running around. Lots of quest items though.
Preferred to do Well of Dragons that way as well. Get all the quests and then do them, but WoD didn't involve as many inventory items.
Sharandar is most efficiently done every 2-3 days, depending where you fall in the rotation for the mini-lair.
IWD dailies could be saved up or just done while you cruised around for heroics. It was flexible, and the rep system made it very easy to plan how many gold/tears you wanted to save up towards your next unlock. My personal favorite campaign structure.

^^ This exactly! It is total nonsense. Just another means to force you to spend more dollars IMO. Another fail in the MOD6 rollout.
Edited:
They should create a new tab in the inventory UI for quests and quest items only. Quest items should not use up inventory slots. Those should be reserved for our gear, RP etc. Having a separate tab to hold the quests/items would be the most logical and add 'at a glance' view of where one is in terms of completing the quest, how many items are still needed, etc. It would also prevent having to clear up bag slots just to accept and do the quests. Would also eliminate having to search our inventory slots for the said quest items.
Log on, collect quests with chars A-C (D,E,...), run them with one of them. Sometimes ofc also only grabbing them - RL takes its toll on my my gaming time occasionally...
...and re. RP-tutti-frutti: I'm all on your side. Well, stacking hundreds in expectation of the 2xRP weekend apparently has to be... ...enabled/backed by donations to Cryptic? If only the limit for Shared Bank slots could get raised to, like, 64 - paid as the ones before, ofc. But then at least the BoA/unbound stuff could get taken out of the chars' system fast...

Separated bag is no for me. Separated tab is YES for me.
For me, my interpretation of "bag" is it would be counted against 5 bag limit.
For tab, it means: it is additional to the existing 4 tabs: bag, currency, profession and companion.
My bag space is limited: at a given time I have on average 3-4 slots available, 8 as an absolute best case scenario, 1 as the worst I allow myself to run around with. I try to put as much as I can in overflow, but it is by no means convenient (and prevent me from invoking). I'd be glad if we could get rid of quest items fom daily quests as much as possible, although I don't mind carrying around 50 sharandar keys, a set of dungeon keys and dragon hoard coffers.
Why not buy an extra bag ? I'd rather invest in wards or character slots to be honest. And it would probably get filled with the echantements I don't already stack, so I'd quickly go back to square one wrt quest items.
Well rp space is obviously ridiculous with 2 types of bound versions, unbound and in some cases a third bound version. Still quest items don't help. One of my characters is holding onto 12 quest items that take up space. Of course I could discard them, but it does help make things more cramped when you do have 5 bags almost completely filled. I do have 42 separate rp items though excluding bound rank 5s. That's almost 2 greater bags alone. So RP does obviously add up. One annoying thing is that I've almost filled up my bank space that I've got the max amount of storage.
Yes, separate tab for sure. This makes the most sense.
