Idea for bag of holding type Item

Unread post by DonnieDreams »

I know that there are no bags because they cause lag, but i just got an idea for a bag of holding type item. Would it be to hard to make a scripted object the when used opens up the storage menu.... this would basically be a bag of holding of a heward's handy haversack.

Just an idea, was curious if it might be something the team would be interested in implementing?

In another thread about bag of holdings an argument was that it would devalue strength and therefore making the attribute even less valuable than it already is.
Just stating what's been said. Don't really have an opinion on the matter. My meager wizard would probably like a bag of some sorts :D.

There is no intention to implement bags of holding or any other similar system in the near future

An item that would spawn the dialog "Can hold an item for me" sort and open the storage system?

Well we have those in server banks right? why not meet halfway, and make a purchaseable item that points to those areas?

Yes exactly.

And that's what I was thinking.

Save merchants like pokey from having to run back and forth to the storage npc, and for those that are building a non strength based character those magical armors that are found in dungeons aren't as cumbersome.

If it was priced accordingly, even thrown in the epic shops. I don't see how it would be to unbalancing.

There are non-mechanical reasons why we won't be introducing bags of holding in the foreseeable future.
