Petition: Ingredient Bags and stuff

[ZeroTakenaka]

With all the new crafting items, I think it would be a good time to add an area to ingredient bags to decide what you want to keep in that bag.

What we have:
Lammania GS ingredients
Shroud GS ingredients Small
Shroud GS ingredients Medium
Shroud GS ingredients Large
Epic Scrolls
Epic Seals
Epic Shards
Reaver Eldritch Runes
Reaver Tempest Runes
Reaver Sovereign Runes
NOW: Crafting Ingredients

Keeping everything in a single bag is a pain. Even now on my wizard(TR1), I got an extra small and extra large ingredients bag from the twelve because of my TR and I'm thinking... How am I gonna keep all my ing. bags sorted?

Let's get some Developer talk on this!

Smaller Request: Please add an easier way to get a large collectables bag... I'm a collectables junkie. One-Fifty Planar Shards is quite a bit.

Personally I would love to see them take the system Lotro uses for vault space and port it over to the collectible/ingredient bags. If they would let us set up our own partitions like that I would love it!

A bank inside a bank,,,,
A bag inside a bag,
A Quiver to store Quivers,
A storage container for storage containers......


Just a thought......

Okay so you buy a bag to place a bag in a bag... GENIUS!

Seriously though, I'm bumping this so more people can talk about it and sign it.

Ask yourself how data is organized on a Hard-drive, and my answer becomes appearent

relative simple solution would have in-bag sorting like the collectibles, that are grouped by place and subgrouped by NPC.

it's as simple as recycling the code for the red bags and adding the correct tags to the various ingredients

example

macro tag "the vale raws"
sub tags: devastation (larges) subjugation(mediums), invasion (smalls),fecundity (blanks, signets)

macro tag "the vale manufactured"
sub tags: devastation( large essence/gem/focus), subjugation ( you get the drill)

and so so on.
It even have neat plus/minus signs to close/expand a tag

just open any red bag you have and see the subgroups, reapply to green bag and suddenly gathering the ingredients you want for a blank/shard becomes way easier

while at it, make the shards ingredients and not trinkets, so I'll stop being scared of rolling 1 on reflex saves and get that stuff exploded (conversely, forgetting I have already imbued a shard and it's sitting int he bank when I'm making another exactly-the-same-shard )

How about bags of holding that hold many times the size of the bag?

Bags inside bags was mentioned?

[Ovrad]

Also, aren't Bags of Holding in DnD supposed to stay the same weight, regardless of what's inside?

All those 0.01 lbs really add up when you got tons of ingredients/collectables. One of my large collectables bag alone weights more than 100 lbs now.

With all the new crafting ingredients and effect shards, combined with shroud/epic/event/etc ingredients, the weight will start to be a little problematic for some. Sure that barbarian with 80+ str won't notice it, but that low str monk who must absolutely stay in light load to be centered will.

Considering the prices of the bags, you'd expect them to be magical and negate the weight. Or maybe the twelve are jerks and ripped us all off by selling a bunch of used burlap potato bags...

As said about weight how bout low Str AM Wiz's. Also I love the idea of using the collectibles bag sorting system.

There are already bags of holding in DDO. Its your 4th backpack slot.
There are already portable holes in DDO. Its your 5th backpack slot.

All we need is for existing bags to categorize the contents like this:

"Large Ingredients Bag"

I like it. +1

The new Crafter Bags in the Lam DDO Store are searchable, just like the other ingredient bags, they hold large amounts of ingredients and in stacks up to 10,000. That works for me. You'll only really need one of those big bags and you'll be fine.

Making them like the collectible bags would work even better or in addition to that.

when they go live they'll be expensive

I understand that but I'd rather not use the search bar for EVERYTHING

Or maybe we could get Mules. An in-game Mule to follow you around in dungeons.

He'd swim behind you thru the Crucible (backstroke even?).
He'd tumble thru the traps in VON5
He'd cling to the walls in the Reaver's Fate (like Spider Mule). "I don't have FLY but Hoof-Hearted does, he'll get the lever"
He'd creep behind you in Stealthy Reposession
He'd flap his hooves between the Vista and the Bat Swarm in the Vale
He'd even Ladder Bug with you (the latest dance craze to hit Eberron!)
And don't get me started on what happens if you cast Grease or Otto's on him.... suprising they'd use the same animation.

Of course, you'd need to get some basic gear for your Mule. Underwater Action, Element Resists, Feather Falling. No belly up, crispy/shivering or grease-spot splat Mules for me please.

Or maybe a majestic moose...... that once bit my sister. No really, she was carving her initials on the moose with the sharpened end of a....

We NEED medium crafting bags for plat, large bags for planar shards. Anything else simply drives home that crafting is play2win only.

Sorting ingredient bags by location and/or use is long since overdue. I suspect that crafting bags could use the same.

Neither of these options fall in the same vein as "we need infinite storage" requests in this thread.

And as long as we are on the subject, component bags, potion six packs, wand quivers, and the like are still very needed.
