Shared Bank Tab

[Tolero]

Discuss the upcoming Module 9 feature: shared banking!

Here are the details, as mentioned in Kate Paiz's Letter To Players:

All subscribers will be able to open their bank, click on the new tab, and place items from your inventory that are bound to account inside this bank tab (bound to character items, mostly raid items, will not be transferable to this tab). Then any other characters on the account can login and pull any of those items into their inventory (note: each bank tab is shard specific – only characters on Argonnessen can reach the Argonnessen shared bank).

Now I do not have to waste gold! How exciting!

[Angelus_dead]

Account-bound items, Whats them?

PS. I assume the letter is incorrect to imply that non-bound items can't be placed in this bank.

[Gunga-1]

Great stuff. I approve of this.

New bank feature POWNS

[Quanefel]

Cool! Does this mean it will be a separate tab within the bank or just work off the ones we have already? If not, any chance we can get a 4th or 5th bank tab? O.o

[Elaril]

This is good.

Can you tell us how many item's it will hold?

I think if you have one Character with all required house k favor you have 3 tab's in your bank and can put 60 (20 per page) items in the bank so my question is how many items will the shared bank be able to hold.

free 5 slots in my bank that are not raid items


But i can see this tab being useful to hold your greater contruct, transumting greater evil outsider bane, collectibles and ingreds. Since those are the items I transfer alot.

Tolero,

The term "items bound to an account" makes no sense to me.

Unless its making bound items useable on all characters on your account "which is the best idea i've never thought of to reduce the unbearable freaking gind for raid items"

Then just say you can share loot with other toons on your account without mailing it please. The way its worded is very confusing as its writen and i can't really give a decent opinion on it if i don't understand what it does.

Unless that was the point?

Also if thats all it does is let you share loot. Why not take it a step further and allow shared guild banking as well, With the guild leader being able to assign access to select members?

Cool stuff. Account-bound loot? Hmmm..

[Borror0]

The term "items bound to an account" makes no sense to me.

It makes the item rarer: Bound to Character > Bound to Account > Unbound.

If you are done with that BtA +5 MFP, and none of your character can use it, then it's one less +5 MFP in circulation.

Yea, I think she meant Bound to Character. So, there will be NO sharing of Bound items via the shared account.

I hope this might be the first step toward a Guild Bank.

[Lorichie]

The way i read it is:

Bound to account refers to items that can only be transferred to characters that are on a single account. If you have two accounts and you want to send that +5 mithril full plate from account one, to someone on account two, you will have to mail it. Account two will not be able to access account one's bank tab to pull that +5 mithril full plate out.

That's how i understand it anyways.

[Aspenor]

Thanks for this great addition, Turbine.

[Nemonon]

Ok i think i see what you guys are saying. Essentially any item that is tradeable on any of your toons can be put in the shared bank for that account.

Meaning the items are bound to that account for shared banking purposes. Makes sense. Gonna be needing atleast one extra bank slot for that to help me though. = )

[Donnie]

Rocks.

[muffinlad]

While, as pointed out, the wording is needlessly confusing (unless you are introducing Account Bound items), switch it to character bound....

The idea is a good one, and should cut down on the amount of mail we all send.
