Portable holes in the Turbine store

[Zargarx]

Hi,

Can you please add portable holes into the store?
They can be earned in game, looted or bought from the AH (prices are way too high - over 100K PP is beyond silly) so adding it won't any significant impact.
I like trying all sorts of builds, but find I waste way too much time rearranging inventory so this would be a big help.

More money! Low drama! What's not to like

40kpp on Ghallanda was the cheapest I saw... way too high for something I can get for free as a favor reward from Gianthold questing. I only have 30kpp total!

Too bad earning that favor will take another 4 levels of cramped inventory and not being able to pick up more than 3 pieces of loot per quest, making it even less likely that I'll be able to scrape up money to buy a good weapon for Shroud.

Prices like these make me wonder if the items ever actually sell... vets usually have a ton of spares, new players don't have that kind of plat.

If you play on Argonessen send me a tell.

To your suggestion: Not signed.

I play, with a 5month break since Sep2009 on Argonessen, and found around 20 Portable holes + those i got from favour rewards. And if you need nearly 4 Backpackspaces for Stuff to carry around on such a low level you maybe should go through your inventory and throw a lot of that away.

Wow, I wouldn't pay any more than 20-25k on Khyber.

They put everything else of that calibre on the DDO Store, so why not. They sell +1/+2 Bank tabs, why not the resource required for the 5th Inventory tab

Why not offer the ability to purchase the 5th Inventory tab and take out the whole favor middle man while you're at it ...

They sell, quickly, for 50k PP. If I saw one at 20-25k, I'd buy it to resell.

Really? You couldn't give them away not long ago on argonessen.

[Myrddinman]

I often have inventory issues (even with 5 tabs), but I'm a packrat. Out of curiosity OP, have you already achieved the favor award from House K that grants the extra bank tab?

Also, what items are cramming your pack? I found that rolling a couple of mules works wonders. I have one for equipment, one for potions and crafting items and one mule to rule them all...the haggle bot

If you've already used all of your Character Slots, then you could buy those from the store, also there are various larger bags in the store, as well as additional Shared Bank space.

I do feel your pain, as I've only looted 1 Hole in over 4 years of playing, and had to buy the others off the AH. Although, many folks will just give you one.

By the time you have enough favor to install the portable hole....

How can you not have enough cash?


And thats just from the regular 'junk' you find. Assuming you didn't find something worth puttin on the AH...

I should sell all mine then, I'm so glad they stack

[Robi3.0]

Part of me wants to say no, but I don't like loot in the store at all generally. Then again I have like 4 of them that I can't sell for ****, so they aren't that big of a deal.

who ever is sell them for 100k is a dork

I might be tempted to buy one from the store. I've seen it drop for others, but never for myself.
Just unlucky I suppose. As it's 100% a convenience item, I don't see why too many people, who aren't against the 'store period' would object.

In my experience, people who have '50 - 100k' to just drop on a portable hole whenever they need one... probably already have it.

[Myrddinman]

Don't forget the 10K Plat to activate it once you have it

Well, since you're asking... When my first character hit 150 CL favour, she was level 7 and had somewhere around 150,000 gold (that's 15kp for those of you who don't understand the 30 year gold standard in D&D). That's not much more than was needed to convert it.

My second character qualified again at level 7 (maybe late in 6) with not much more money. She's now level 14 and hasn't seen a portable hole at all, not even in somebody else's loot table.

The lowest I've ever seen one on the AH was over 200,000 gold. I don't care if I have more than enough gold to get one now, I refuse to bow to robbery like that. If all these vets have so many of them wasting space, how come everybody sells them for so much?

[SINIBYTE]

Am I the only one that just gives them away to newbies?

[MsEricka]

MOAR EASY BUTTON PLEASE!

Seriously? No way. They drop everywhere and you get one for free from favor so what's the point.

money.

its an item of pure convenience.

people giving money to turbine is a good thing.

[Cylinwolf]

What I would suggest that would work:

-An account item that removes the portable hole (and possibly plat) portion necessary to getting your 5th bank tab.

This is in the spirit of Drow and 32-Point Builds and FvS and not having to worry about re-unlocking those on every server you move to play on.

(Turbine would probably take it a step further and just allow you to buy the slot without the favor, but, meh. I'm surprised they haven't done that yet.)

[rossiza]

Yes, please put a [Buy Portable Hole] button next to the button that says [Easy] in the store!

Also a [godmode] button, i tried 'iddqd' but it does not work like doom!

If you look at it closely, it's not an easy button at all. It's not something like SP pots which will change how you will play out in a dungeon. It's just extra space.

What is made 'Easy' really? Less trips to vendors/banks? You'll still have to grind out the favor from the Coin Lords to be able to use a portable hole anyway.

Not to mention they're not even rare. Maybe you should think twice before dismissing the entire idea.

I'd rather they sell Portable Holes in the store than Large Devil Scales, don't you?
