They could be somthing like a chest, possibly with the resource symbol on the side, and most importantly only take up one space in a house!!!. There needs to be somthing to help ws out with resource storage without having to use a seperate large house to store them in, nothing more annoying than running back and forth between 2 houses grabbing resouces...

I ended up just dropping a ton of houses. storage vendors, and I use myJTL yachts for storage (You can fill up to 2 before it wont let you leave stuff in them anymore)


Bout the only way I've managed to handle it. All the important resources stay in the ships or bank vaults. And all the other lesser crap goes on my storage vendors (As those seem to have a tendancy to want to poof)


I also happen to use my factories for additional storage since they are there anyway adn will technically hold 200 items (100 in ingredient hopper and 100 in production hopper). For example sub components and the liek I dont take out of the output hopper untill I need them, or I need the room for another run of subs. Excess goes into the ingredient hopper. Though I make sure to leave room for ingredients course.


And then if yoru master merch I THINK the item cap on your vendors (All told. Not individually alas) is 3000

They should increase the resource stacks to 500k or 1 Million...that would already help a lot.

The most reasonable and 'do-able' idea I've seen has been to make factory-like 'warehouses'. Available at the master crafter level, take a single lot and store something like 150-200 items. Display is like a vendor (for ease of use), but without the time limits and extra 'sale, offer, stockroom' screens.

This would ease alot of the storage problems, they added item stacking to make things better this would make sense to do for resources.

And might also be good for the database? Larger stacks = less items?

Ain't gonna happen. If anything storing resources is going to get harder. Of course all this means is it will probably lead to more lot trading, but they obviously see that as the lesser of two evils.

Also, you could get storage vendors.

We'd all like to see this happen, but SOE has ignored storage since day one. Don't see that changing now. They'd actually have to play the game to understand how much of a pain in the arse storage is for crafters.

Its funny they give us more ships in our data pad, they are adding more vehicles to our data pads but they wont make this simple fix for resource containers.

This argument comes up every few months. Long ago on a forum far far away SOE stated that they never intended for players to have so many resources. (Not sure what they thought we would do) But the idea has been squashed many times. I would love to see resource stack size increased. 500k would be a huge help.

I have my metals in the crafting station bin and non-metals in a backpackinmy storage vendor. I also have a few backpacks of overstock resources. I recently went through all my resources and kept only 5 differentstacks (or less) of eachtype ofresource. This keeps things alot simpler fo me. Keep in mind that I don't make massive amounts of weapons in factories so I don't need to keep as many stacks as a toon that does.


Increasing stack amounts to 500k would be awesome... but don't hold your breath.

I just us a guildhall to craft in. Storage is 400 which is more than enough for off the cuff weapon crafting.
