Time to increase consumable item stack size...

The 20 item stack limit on hypo or battery is asinine.
Especially now that we have to purchase 45 hypo to donate to projects etc...
It is also a pain to always be dragging consumables from inventory to usable slots. You can refill cobsumables between any fights so it is not as if the 20 limits the amount you can use unless you are in a continual 40 minute battle... all it does is add to the clickfest which is the last thing we need :rolleyes:
And yes I have greatly upgraded inventory space so this has nothing to do with running out of inventory space... its just ANNOYING!!!
Devs please fix this in the next patch and raise the limit to 99... it really can't be that hard... unless you just enjoy torturing your customers... (the only reason to keep the silly 20 limit).

we need the following Q.O.L inventory/UI fixes (summed up from mine and everyone's needs):

Please Cryptic, increase the stack limit! That was really annoying with the projects for the rep system.
But the purchase limit is annoying. Why can't I just type the amount of items I want to buy instead of clicking and dragging sliders 100 at a time? Starbase projects require commodities by the thousands, buying them 100 at a time is almost as bad as the data sample inputs in the beginning when they had to be put in one by one.
And yes, the projects should never take items that are equipped on a character.
The limit increase for data samples, particle traces and commodities is perfect. the consumables need some attention. When rep projects require 45 or 55 items (hypos or regens) it gets a little cumbersome to have 10 to 20 slots in you inventory or bank account filled up with these.
^^^ 100% agree with this ^^^
Even Reputation projects require amounts larger than the stack size of any given item, yet the purchase limit is even less than the stack size in some cases.

Let's see if Cryptic see a way to allow this without thinking that they will lose money in inventory slot selling...
actually, I dont think anyone could moan about this being a C-Store unlock feature for 500 Zen (or a reasonable price, not some stupidly high price)
10k DPS Vesta threads: 1; 2
For a c store unlock I would need every single item to stack to 999 - account wide. Including the ability to put a 999 stack in my ships device slot so I dont have to refill. 500 zen max. Maybe 350.
The 99 stack should be provided free. 20 is just stupid.
No excuse for this. There is absolutely no reason why the replicator UI was not updated to deal with fleet base contributions. It's probably just one of those things where it was a mad rush to slam in some patch, and a UI upgrade neither adds microtransactions nor dilithium sinks to the game. :mad:
^^ This. It's annoying having to buy in small stacks. But, as mentioned above, if Cryptic DID raise the stack limit, there would be less need for us to buy extra inventory slots.
I'd pay 1000 just to clear out my inventory. Some of my data samples are growing to 3 stacks. This is after selling 5 stacks of different samples, cheap.
I agree with the OP, too. Increasing Stack Size would be great too, add to it the above ability to purchase in larger quantities, and we're golden. I'd love to be able to start a new character, step up to the vendor and buy a whole Rep Sys worth of material in one transaction per item (assuming I have the available inventory space and EC, of couse).
All excellent ideas!

WHAT IF... in the reputation/fleet donation system, there was a button to directly purchase the required replicatable items?
HEAVEN!!!
Then it might as well be direct energy credit contributions, which, now that I think about it, would be far less tedious anyway. But it subverts the "repetitive hoop-jumping, grind, and micro-transactions as content" agenda, so no dice.
