I am sooo over the TR cache

[Phatlewts]

The game is now completely dependent on the TR cache and it is arguably the very worst aspect of this game. So little has been done to make it better, and almost nothing done to stop items from disappearing upon reincarnation. I we don't continue to voice our displeasure with it, nothing will be done to get rid of it... And I don't mean losing storage space, but anyone who feels they still need it might consider hording therapy...

Bank revamp coming at the end of the year ... Hopefully. I definitely feel your pain there with the cashe. There's been several instances of myself or friends looking items in it to never return or to see the item magically show up 3 life's down the road. Tr cashe is aweful.

The TR cache is THE reason I hate to do TRs of any sort. I will never be any kind of completionist because of it.

I don't care for the TR cache but the TR mechanic that drains the will to TR from me is the whole relevel up from 1 to 20 on an epic TR. I just find that whole process mind-numbing but at the same time you have to be meticulous and pay attention because you don't want to make a mistake.

I'm glad to hear the storage revamp is coming. Because the TR cache is an absolute mess. I hope we eventually get a way to filter by level, or name, or search the cache. It's such a pain.

One thing that I think would be nice would be to have to click a button to view the TR cache when visiting the bank rather than just sitting...and sitting...and sitting...and waiting every time i try to access the bank.

Just the question remains if they address the TR cache, so far I heard nothing about this.

To "fix" the TR cache the best would be to entirely remove it and the only way I see for that is that we no longer lose Kundarak and Coin Lords favor bank and inventory space after a TR.
The TR has simply to work like an ER/LR now, this means the TR cache stays intact and you don't need to empty it to start the TR process but no new items are transferred into the cache.

It basically doesn't matter how much bank and inventory space SSG will give us, if they don't fix that the TR cache problem will remain and it will get even bigger.
The more bank and inventory space we have the more items we have to pull out of our TR cache before a TR if we use that space and if nothing changes to the TR cache.
And I wonder how they add new bank and inventory space without changing the TR cache because the TR cache seems to have limitations and if you have more bank and inventory space these limitations should cause item losses.
And the reason why I say that is that we had a certain time when you did not need to empty your TR cache in order to do an ITR and if I remember correctly SSG said that this can cause item losses.

Ive never had any items vanish. thats from about 50 past lives.

I don't appreciate being called a "hoarder" for not wanting to re-farm my ML12 cleansed greensteels every freaking life.

I lost a fully-crafted Legendary Green Steel light repeater after one of the extremely rare TRs I did.

Never made another LGS item again. Why risk losing something like that after another TR?

Me neither. I get that it’s always somewhat worrisome though.

However, to everyone worried about their cache - just empty it. I do it asap every life now and it’s just so much better.

But what I really want is an account-wide search. I have 4 mains and about 10 bank toons, each holding items by level range and type, and looking for specific crafted or BtA gear across all the toons is a huge pain. And searching by name only doesn't allow for what I really want, which is 'find all Eminence of Autumn items I have (with a Reaper/Mythic bonus)'.

SSG, please, give us a basic read-only character data API. I promise we will wrap it an awesome UI

Bully for you.

I lost an ESOS and EROSS back when getting those was like winning to lottery. Lost of ton of other items, and CS will usually only replace 3 of them. It sucks.

We wouldn't need an account-wide search or mules at all if they gave us ~3000 slots in the shared bank.

If I had a choice between "a better alternative to the TR cache" and "export/import build templates that you can apply in one click when TRing", I'd pick the latter in a heartbeat and never look back

Concur. FWIW I'm about to hit 100 PLs and never lost items during TR. Not bragging here - just suggesting maybe not as common an issue as in years past so folks that are worried maybe give it another go... I'll also mention SSG did something because emptying your TR cache is much faster than it used to be.

They did do some significant work on it recent(ish?)ly. I know I haven't lost anything during all my RTRs and occasionally got some arrows back, so that's something.

vip should grant unlimited shared storage; the storage count for shared storage should only matter for premium/ftp

[Zuldar]

It's a necessary evil for the time being. Low drop rates, diluted loot pools, and the ransack mechanic make throwing away anything you're not actively using an impractical solution. It doesn't help that so many items are bound to character which limits how effective bank toons are. Carrying over House K and Coin Lord favor wouldn't provide anywhere near the necessary amount of storage space to solve the issue on it's own. Hopefully the storage rework addresses this issue but for now simply getting rid of the TR cache would literally make the game unplayable and I do mean that in the literal sense rather than figurative.
