Petition to increase resource stack sizes to at least 500k a stack, this is getting pretty nuts with all the resources us armorsmiths (and i am sure other prof) have. and with shipwright prof in a few months i see this being a big prob. to me there is no reason not to increase it a bit, we need a bit more room and it would decrease server load because of less GUI objects instead of 5 stacks of 100k would only show 1 stack of 500k. i am not a complicated programmer like the ppl at SOE but i don't see whya change like this would be hard topull off. plz do a ./sign if u would like to petition this maybe the devs will notice it, i know this has been suggested before but as usual nothing seems to happen.

They won't do it. I would love for them to do this for us but they won't because 1000 pc schematic was a bug when it first showed up. We complained enough for them to keep it in but I read somewhere that TH said they might change that again. I personally think that doing this will solve the database problem and eliminate most of the lag in the game.
We can always hope they throw us a bone when they nerf our armor to **edit** though..

I actually don't want the stack size increased. That will make resources take up more storage space. With character lot rebalancing it is possible that many of the grind quality resources will be allowed to disappear.
I really think you can store all the resources needed to be an armorsmith for quite some time in one small house. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Lol. Ok you were joking about that right? No seriously tell me your joking.
I have 4 houses full of resources. They hold 150 items per house. And the sad thing that only works out to be like 30 million resources or so. If resources stacked to 500k and that stack counted as 1 item then maybe I could get all my resources in one medium house. I'm just assuming you have been an armorsmith for very long yet.

Basically to make up for the downtime of no good resources spawning. I like running 40 suits of composite in one run. I don't ever wan't to be short of a resource. It kinda sucks when a good resource spawns and makes your stash useless but then it's a risk we all take. Then we usually keep the old resource in our house even though we don't use it anymore. Lol.

And if you don't have room for it? Once it's two generations out of date?
(I join you in keeping one generation of outdated resources.)

sure if you are making 1 type of armor for yourself, and only use 1 harvestors at a time to mine resources.
for any other working armorsmith, YOU CAN NOT store all the resources you need in one small house.

I have been a master armorsmith since August. If you are a dabbler, like I was in the beginning, you can store stuff in one house. I no longer consider myself a dabbler, but I am also not a large-scale producer of armor. I make pretty good stuff. Maybe even real good for a 10 pt smith.
I have 4 houses, 5 factories and a vendor being used for storage. I still have some difficulty with storage. Sometimes I cann find my own stuff. it would be real nice to have some sort of warehousing available. Unfortunately, it was stated by the devs that the stack size would not be increased.

You can store it all in one house IF:
a) You specialize in just 1 to 2 types of armor. ( And only keep resources for kinetic and energy layers).
b) You don't use segment enhancers of any type. ( I have 3 factories and a small house of those alone).

I would love to see the stacks invreased to 500k. Won't happen. TH has already stated that it will never happen.
