That's pretty much exactly what I came up with. There's also a guild storage system included in this (exactly what you don't want) but I'm not entirely certain how it works, yet. :lol: Private shared storage for a certain guild might be something we include down the road, but if we do, it'll likely become a standard feature of guild halls, since it can just be enabled with an NPC conversation (in other words, if your guild has an NPC in it, it can be enabled over the course of a single reset without much effort).

BG, Sshamath, FAI, and Soubar currently have storage available, but your character will access the same vault at all these locations. We might add some bankers to Beregost, Nashkel, and Corm Orp if demand for more locations is evident.

Hope you like it. :)
The SCCE is a guild, and that is where the banker is in BG...

So I hear. This seems rather inapropriate as it essentially locks that guilds opponents from banking in BG. As much IC sense as it might make it simply isn't right.

You just need to think outside the square and start storing your alchemist fire in said opponent's bank... woops! Did they get set on fire accidentally? How did that happen I wonder! :twisted:

Currently we have not implemented personal guild storage. If we do turn this feature on, it will be after we work out the kinks of the primary system.

It would essentially allow guilds that currently have a "guild mule" PC attached to multiple CD keys to just use the "guild armory" NPC to store all their community gear. This way a guild leader would not have to be around to accept or oversee guild-based item borrowing or donations, and if the player of a guild mule carrying everyone's stuff were to disappear the items would remain available to those who donated them and the people who they donated them for.

Yeah but likewise a person who had access to your guild storage could get mad at you and decide to clean the thing out. I can see that turning into a nightmare...

Or creating a lot of good RP. Hard to say.

Makes me think of the corporate wallet / storage clear-outs in EVE Online.

Those had logs of the transactions however.

Extremely easy to replicate.
