Shared Bank Tab

[Borror0]

Somewhere, a Mad Bombadier is smiling.

LOL, glad I am not the only one thinking this. I was surprised to hear he still plays once in a while.

20 slots? kinda convenient if you are just transferring 1 or 2 items but many vets in here have tons of stuff to move around. how about 40

oh can we get another currency? i find it a hassle to move millions of plat around, especially when i need to start an event

Did he just say it's such a hassle to carry around all my millions of platzzzzz... )
You dirty bastich!
Who was it that called folks out awhile ago as to how much money they had? One of the more prominent posters...
It's my own fault becoming obsessed with coins and cakes the year before last. Finally got the hang of the auctions, and then actually begged and borrowed. I'm reformed now, but I'm sure I could fall from the wagon with a butterfly wing. Now I gotta earn it all back.
Ha!, Good Gaming.

You are kidding me right? 20 slots is a solid amount. Sure more would be nice but have it tied to favor or something at least.

This is great if you roll a new toon. Put the items in the shared area. Roll him up. Go to the bank and there you go.

How many things do you really need to share?

[Gryphton]

This is one of my favorite things to come. Sure, 20 spots is a bit on the lower side of things but it's still a great addition IMO. I also really like the idea of bound raid loot to the account instead of the character as I would assume most people are.

Well, if design had their way the two would look exactly the same. Unfortunately on the technical side it doesn't work out that way. So, the reasons are technical. Cheifly among them being it would involve an inordinate amount of time spent reworking the UI (wouldn't it be grand if we were just a MUD? ACII art for the win! ). Maybe Zyrca can work some magic....

Post of the year (so far)

[Ustice]

This is the type of tech that would be VERY useful for a guild-bank system (just expand it to characters outside of the same account, but in the same guild).

[Hendrik]

This is the type of tech that would be VERY useful for a guild-bank system (just expand it to characters outside of the same account, but in the same guild).

I agree!

I hope this is the first step toward that.

I also hope Turbine looks into the griefing potential with a Guild Bank.

[Missing_Minds]

LOL, glad I am not the only one thinking this. I was surprised to hear he still plays once in a while.

Last I saw, he's over in Lotro land these days. I'll see about droping him a message if I remember.

[Galbbatorix]

A great addition to this shared bank tab would be to make bank instances such as the Lordsmarch Bank and the House Kundarak Bank to have the same logout speed that taverns do. I always find it annoying when transferring stuff and I have to wait for that slow logout.

[Sertrynus]

This is the type of tech that would be VERY useful for a guild-bank system (just expand it to characters outside of the same account, but in the same guild).

Yes this could well be the pre-cursor to a guild bank system

Just hope that if there is a guild bank implemented, there is lors of space. Kinda run the bank for my guild and it is.......extensive

Tolero or Phax -

Here is my question, left unsaid is whether or not this feature will or will not (assumed) be tied to favor and/or require a portable hole which needs fixing ... do you know if either of these will apply? Or will there be any "opening mechanism" to get the tab or is it with you from scratch?

Thanks!

Actually that is the first thing that was answered. "All subscribers will be able to open their bank, click on the new tab".
So it will not be tied to favor and/or require a portable hole which needs fixing.

[Noctus]

Wooot!

[Saaluta]

What would be nice is if Turbine could figure out how to do a "money bag" similar to ingredient bags, but you can put an amount of plat in them and place it in the shared bank slot. Even if there is a cap on it, most of us wouldn't mind. I rarely send more than 20k plat to a starting character, so if I want to reroll and forget to send it back, no big deal.

Saal

The is for those that know me in game and know how constantly poor I am as compared to them...but having 3 capped clerics can get expensive sometimes

[Rekker]

Great addition...thanks !!!

Or better yet, just simply have money be an ACCOUNT item. In other words, you wouldn't need to send PP to a toon, since it would be available on all toons. Alternately, (and likely better for those that want no-twink toons) have a system where you can transfer funds between characters at the bank. Instead of having to log out, log in to toon 2. put money in a shared bank/mail money to toon 1, then log out, and log back into toon 1 to retrieve the funds, you could just pull it from the other toon.

All subscribers can, for example, get access to the marketplace too or increase their backpack space per character - after they fulfill certain obligations. While I am inclined to agree with your interpretation, I would like Tolero to verify it.

[Yaga_Nub]

Can I get a bank tab that's shared with DfC's bank?

[Phax]

I would like Tolero to verify it.

There is no unlocking required.
