    Default Add Inventory browser for your toons

    When logged into MyDDO, it already lists all your own toons on every server and a view of all the equipment they were wearing when you last logged them out.

    I think it would be immensely helpful for those with 20+ toons, and even on multiple servers, to have a way to browse all our toons inventory, bank, and shared bank. That way we can save a lot of time for ourselves and Login/Logout activitiy in several scenarios:


    • Which toon had item X?
    • Do any of my toons have an X, Y, or Z that C can use?
    • Do any of my toons have collectable/ingredient X in their bags?
    • Does toon C have enough money to buy that X on auction?

    As it is, you could definitely use a spreadsheet and manually track all this yourself, but the information would change so frequently that it would be a pain to maintain. A MyDDO tool to help with this would be immensely valuable.

    Otherwise the process is a painstaking cycle of
    Code:
    FOR EACH TOON C
      LOGIN C // Waste of DDO resources
      WAIT FOR CHARACTER TO BE RESPONSIVE
      IF NOT AT BANK
         RELOCATE TO BANK
      END IF
     OPEN INVENTORY
     OPEN BANK // Waste of DDO resources
     SCAN INVENTORY
     SCAN BANK
     IF FOUND X
       MOVE X TO SHARED BANK
       LOGOUT  // Waste of DDO resources
       BREAK
      END IF
      LOGOUT  // Waste of DDO resources
    LOOP

    Like this?
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.

    no thanks, there are already enough people that misuse my ddo.
    we really don't need them being able to scan a characters entire inventory and
    then start with the "advice and guidance" or booting.

    Being able to keep track of inventory from outside the game would be nice.
    We could use the extra option of being able to selectively restrict access to our characters, so we can choose which ones to show, if at all.

    We currently have the option of making char's owner anonymous - which is IMHO bad, since it undermines players' accountability.
    We don't get the option of shutting access to strangers off, so anybody can chime in and tell how "gimped" our character is.
