Equipment - Spell Component Folder or Bag - Sor/Wiz/Cleric/FvS/Ranger

[AmiSouthpaw]

First let me say that i searched the forum for something that fits this type of post but did not see one so thought that would start one forgive me if i overlooked something in my search...I have looked throught the DDO Store and I see quivers, Hirling Folders, Gem Bags, Collectible Bag, Material Bags for crafting stuffs and yet not a single bag/folder for Spell Components. I mean on my wizard I have an entire slot page full of nothing but components as i try to keep extra on me and that amount depends on the times i cast the spells that use those components. It would be nice to have a folder, bag or something like the quivers and so on that takes up one slot and yet hold 200 to 2000 or such of each type similar to the other types of bags that are out there. this would be even beter if there was a chance for say a small version that is randomly dropped in quests for spell types like were you get the gem and collectible bags, small, after first coming to stormreach this i would like to see in U8

I don't think you've searched very well, but then again, the search function is pretty much worthless here. The problem with implementing these is something related to code. Id imagine this is the same reason you have to drag things out of your ingredients bag to use em. Not really sure, but I recall reading about it being a limitation of code.

/signed - If it can be implemented though.

But then you go to the quiver issue that the arrows/bolts are automatically taken out as needed just as if they were in your inventory as well the bags same a button click sells the gems the collectibles it is a talk to the right npc with the right amount of them. I do not know of the material bags as i do not use them the hirling folder though i select the one i want and use arrows no dragging needed on those but as i said i do not bother with ingredient bags

a)There exists NO reason to have a full page full of components.

The reason is that the game cannot interract with stuff being held within the bag.. IIRC only the necropolis collectible guys require stuff to be in the bag/sigil/frame. EVERYTHING else requires you to have your stuff in your inventory.

ie: Gianthold TOR relic turn in, Vale flagging quest tutorial etc etc

easy answer: buy 1000 of each (that's 9 slots +1 for stoneskin)... create a hotbar and put it at the bottom right of your screen.. put your components in order 1-9 and stoneskin being last.

that's 10 slots (half a page) being taken by components. leaving you 80 remaining inventory slots.

sorry for the small picture (photobucket sucks, i've switched to using imageshack for the big pictures, this one is just an older picture of mine)
