How many can you buy?

How many can you buy?

There is only one shared bank you can buy (with twenty slots). It works on all servers, but is only available to the characters on each server for use between them. You can get an upgrade that will give you ten more slots.

[DME543]

So, you can only upgrade for a total of 30 slots? The store is giving me the choice to buy beyond 30 slots but I dont want to blow the points if its not possible.

Could that be your own personal bank and not the Shared bank?

No, its the shared bank, where all your characters on a specific server can have access. I'm looking in the ddo store under premium items/account options.

I'm a little unsure too.

New in the DDO Store ~ MORE BANK FOR YOUR BUCK... MORE Shared Bank Space & ALL NEW Favored Soul Hirelings!!! Click here for more information.

So "more" shared bank space is new in the DDO store, but it is not in the release notes (FVS hirelings are). I think we can go to 40 now, since wasnt it always called EXTRA shared bank space?

If thats true, then I need to know if I have to buy the 30 slot expansion first...

[DME543]

Yes, inquiring minds want to know...and not waste points.

[Minttunator]

Yeah, I think they added an option to buy another 10 slots for the same (ridiculously expensive - just my opinion) price. The 10 slot upgrade is now listed twice in the store (used to be only one), so it would make sense that one could buy both, for a total of 40 slots.

[DME543]

Thanks

If I can buy more shared bank space (on top of the 30 I have) they may have finally convinced me to buy Turbine Points (I am running low, I had to LR a couple of toons).

Ahem *Buy On Sale* cough cough.

Unlike character bank or backpack space, shared space can be useful. Especially if you are like me, and you have 7 characters below lvl 6 to reroll as soon as you unlock 32 point builds....

Hi guys, sorry this wasn't in the Release Notes. It is now.

This is an additional 10 shared bank spaces on top of the other 30 you can buy (Shared bank 20 + additional 10). Because this is an account level unlock you can only buy it once (and can't circumvent the filter stopping you from buying again), so you don't need to worry about "wasting" Turbine points on it.

Enjoy!

Woohoo!

It would be REALLY easy to avoid a lot of this kind of confusion with a little forethought in the store descriptions.

Shared bank - for XXX TP (gives you 20 Shared Bank Slots)
Extra Shared bank space - for YYY TP (unlocks 10 more shared slots increasing the shared bank to 30 slots, (requires shared bank)
Even More Shared bank space - for YYY TP (unlocks 10 more shared slots, increasing the shared bank to 40 slots (requires extra shared bank space already)


Give each expansion a slightly different name and simply make the Item description more accuracte and informative.

Again, the description could be better written. If it allows up to 40 now then it should say so and if it requires you to have 30 slots before buying it should say that as well.

And if it allows up to 40 now, I'm gonna be 995 tp poorer before today is over.
