Bag Space

[Rosspring]

Before fishing I could see how one character just might carry almost everything that character would need for crafting and general play, then you add x number of fish and x number of food, with 1.9 we also get x number of lures and we need to keep the fish on the main to do the daliy quests.

I need a fish/food bag with 50 to 100 slots, and a shared bank would also be nice, maybe with a 100 slot space only for artifacts?

'Cos you really know what sucks in the best AAA MMO of 2012? having to mail crap to alts, that is just not ok anymore.

I second that.

In EQ2 they had a (I don't remember the exact amount of slots, think it was around 50) huuuuge bag just for harvested mats. This is exactly what we need here too! I'm tired of being forced to send fish (and leather and bacon and all this stuff) back and forth to an alt... and that alt I only created to have a mule. I'm not in alts at all.

Do a search, you'll find pages upon pages of threads complaining about the lack of bag space.

This is why they gave us alts - to use their bank space.

This.
solutions are simple(but yes bigger bags would be nice, but not desperately needed)

They "gave us alts"? I don't wanna be forced to create alts just to have more space. That is ridiculous!
And yes, I did a search and nothing else came up. (Searched for "bags, bag space" etc etc)

I never said it was a good solution, but I've had to do the same on Aion, WoW, SW:TOR etc

Strange, I got page after page:

Yep, it's a crappy solution, but alts (preferably with guild banks) are the solution for the moment. :/

That is one of the worst arguments I've heard about space. I suppose that's why they implemented an AH as well? So you can mail stuff to yourself and 'gain' several hundred additional slots?

This entire bag space issue is just poor planning on Trion's part. Either they didn't forsee this issue, or they just don't care about it. Adding in dozens of new fishes/lures and food is just stupid. Since so many things are completely useless clickies now. Fluff items that I have to re-evalualte if I even have the bank space to keep (forget about keeping them on me).

With all these consumables, tradeskills, multiple crystals & cores, gear for different roles, pvp and now fishes, lures and food. This is just plain incompetent.

Just let me un-equip a full bag.... thats all i ask.

22 slot bag, fill with fish, un-equip and equip empty bag. Switch them back when i happen to need the fish.

22 full slots would instantly become one slot and i would be happy

this idea is nice, but uhmm that would be a awfull lot of bankspace that way(each slot in your bank stashed with 1 of the filled bags. you do the math :P). Even if you make it so that you cant stash it in your bank, you will have a awfull lot of space ni your bags that way.

nevertheless I dont entirely share the opinion that every problem we run into, should be fixed by adding stuff. Dealing with limited bagspace is part of the game imo.
It is do-able, but I forsee bigger bags in 1.10 though(looking in my glas ball)

I too would like to see a FISH bag. Would help me a lot.

I have one char that has all the gathering professions plus fishing and survival. This char's bank is of course the "hold everything" bank. I don't have a problem with fish until the other chars also start getting their fishing up in skill.

Yes I mail the fish to the hold all banker. But this doesn't help me when I have to log off and on to get what I need for other chars. It's a royal freaking pain in the arse.

So, why not a universal bank? Access to all items on all chars on the same server, same faction. THAT would be useful.
