Hey, I am a little bit annoyed by moving stuff around on between different characters. The easy solution is to put stuff in shared inventory slots. The big question is: How many should you get?

Currently I have four slots filled with three infinte salvage kits and a lounge pass. I can think of other items like the Birthday Cake, Position Rewinder or the White Mantle Portal Device.

I am curious what you keep in your shared slots.

Full Set (28)

This will look terrible witch the 29th slot from purchasing SotO ... haha.

Also, I'm a big fan of account-wide QoL improvements and willing to pay money for them, hence I have the full set of the shared slots, unlimit gathering tools, Copper-Fed Salavage Kit (the silver-fed isn't worth it, use a mystic kit instead), Lounge Pass(es), Material Storage Expansion up to 1K, etc.

Of course the value of account-wide upgrades increases with the number of characters you (actively) play on your account. To me the Shared Slots are a very high priority and I'd buy them before any cosmetic items or BL keys or equipment/build templates from the gem store.

Mine is similar to yours, all teleport tomes, PoF permanent pass, all salvage kits (copperfed, runecrafter, mystic, black lion), tp to friend, position rewinder, waystations, a set of unbound tools, home instance teleporter, birthday cake and a tier 10 jade core (I equip t1 on chars and switch to 10 when playing them).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Ty very much, I forgot about the infinie fractal potion, which is also a must have in the slots.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That’s a lot of shared inventory space! I only have 3 😅

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Well i play since release and often couldnt decide which item to put there so i bought two and put both in :D

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would recommend replacing the Silver-Fed with Mystic Salvage Kits if you have stones to spare. It's less gold per salvage :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have a lot of stones to spare, but it's pretty convenient to have an infinite salvage kit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I make a mystic salvage kit any time that mystic forge is the daily.

This gives me enough of them to throw 2 or 3 on every character I have (~20) with spares in the bank, using them for anything rare or exotic (unless I want the upgrade, which requires a BL kit).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Recyclers, TP to friend, and unbreakable gathering tools to share between alts

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have seen gathering tools being mentioned often, but I would probably forget to put them into the slot anyway.

For the tps I am quite lucky, I have about 350 of them from the years of playing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's a good idea to have a set of normal (orichalcum) gathering tools on your characters by default so that you just need to double-click on the shared slots to swap the unlimit tools in and out. And you are not "naked" (in front of a orichalcum node) in case you forgot to swap back the unlimit tools on another character.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mystic Salvage Kit.

Copper-Fed Salvage-o-Matic.

Royal Terrace Pass.

If I get more, I would put the Prototype Position Rewinder in one.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Similar to my setup, but I also have the rune crafter(?) and silver fed salvage tool for greens and rare+ items.

Hope that they will be on sale soon to get more slots.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Infinite salvage kits, black lion salvage kit, the position rewinder and a lounge pass. Also all the various tomes with teleport scrolls. Still got a lv80 boost stuck in one slot as well.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are you using the black lion kit for? I have like 100 charges of them rotting in my bank.

Teleport tomes are a great addition to my list, thanks! I always just pushed a class I didn't have already to max level with the boost. The most valuable thing for me are the shared slots anyway. I collected so many straight to lvl X scrolls and xp tomes, that I don't really need the boost.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are you using the black lion kit for?

Not the one you're asking but I use it to salvage exotics if they contain valuable upgrades and getting rare mats in the process.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I usually have the kit in the bank and use it when I find exotics, but I am either doing something wrong or that is not very often the case.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Depends on the account but generally what get priority is

  • one of some kind of salvaging kit
  • Mistlock Sanctuary/Lily of Elon
  • Arborstone ( the bill of teleporting to cantha rack up too quickly without it)
  • LS4 Tome ( to just get characters who haven't been there before more than costs)
  • LS3 Tome ( winterberries)
  • Icebrood saga Tome ( same as LS4)
  • Position Rewinder ( for those pesky JPs as I am terrible with the classes that got their own teleports)
  • Invitation to the party
  • Converters (too much bloodstone, dragonite and empyreal fragments)

ionventory.jpg Pretty similar from everyone else. But i tend to keep some quartz crystals in there so i can charge them with everyone anywhere.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Copper fed salvage. The Metabolic Primers and the Utility primers. Arborstone pass. Lily of the Elon Pass. Power Food, Condi food, power and condi utilities. The Research kit from EOD. A few other things that I can’t remember.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Food is definitely something I nood to add. Currently three slots are occupied by mist potions, but I can merge them soon and put regular bufffood in the slots.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Copper fed salvage, Armistice Bastion Pass and four slots for guild siege.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I only play on one character, unless I do sPvP. I do have a lounge pass and boosters for sPvP in my shared inventory.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I mostly play one character too, but I think I would switch around more, if moving stuff between characters would not be that annoying.

I have birthday boosters running on my characters all the time and regularly refresh them from the stack in my bank.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

All 3 unlimited salvage tools, common/uncommon/rare unid gear to consolidate those across all my alts, the teleport tomes I need (arborstone, eotn, mistlock), and the gobblers that I use regularly -- snowflake/candy corn, that kinda thing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That one empty one is from SotO and so far I use it for Runestones when switching through my alts, so it automatically adds up there and can be sold as a stack at the end.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Have no answer on you question about how many shared slots are enough, but mine are filled with:

  • Mystic Salvage Kit
  • Copper-Fed Salvage-o-Matic
  • Runecrafter's Salvage-o-Matic
  • Mistlock Sanctuary Passkey
  • Blue, Green, Yellow unid gear (I always keep of each in there, so all unids from all characters would go in one place)
  • Season 3, 4 and Icebrood portal tomes
  • Feast of Delectable Birthday Cake
  • Prototype Position Rewinder
  • Infinite Mist Omnipotion

I probably would like to add a waystation and at least one of the candy gobblers in there. Maybe fractal encryption keys, TP to friend and some enhancement, too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Well, I am going to buy a lottery ticket. Shared inventory slots are 20% off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
  • copper salvage kit
  • portal tomes
  • position rewinder

I think that's about it. I mostly play Necro, elementalist, and Mesmer but every once in a while I try the others. I don't have any passes.
