Guild Wars 2 Inventory Space Management Guide by Jerich. I always run out of inventory space in any MMO I play. The main problem is that I love to craft and quest and always have a ton of those items on hand. Here are some things I’ve found out about GW 2 to help me plan my storage space. Starting Inventory. 30 shared bank slots. New customers only, min deposit £20, wagering 35x, max bet £5 with bonus funds. Max bonus is 100% up to £100. No max cash out on deposit Inventory Slots Gw2 offers. Welcome bonus excluded for players depositing with Skrill or Neteller. Cashback is cash with no restriction.

Acquisition[edit]

Sold by[edit]

Contained in[edit]

• Doomsday Preparation Pack
• Tinker's Package

Other[edit]

• One slot comes bundled with Heart of Thorns and another with Path of Fire. These slots are initially filled with a Level-80 Boost. Consuming the boost will free up the slots.
• If you receive Heart of Thorns free with Path of Fire, you do not get the shared inventory slot or the level 80 boost from Heart of Thorns, meaning you only get one boost and one slot, despite owning both expansions.

Notes[edit]

• The shared slots can be moved either above all regular bag slots, or below them. This is done by dragging the slot, much like you would with a bag.
• The slot is not a bag slot, and does not allow additional bags to be equipped.
• Vendors and the Trading Post will ignore items in these slots, as will 'Deposit all Materials'.
• Items that soulbind or are already soulbound cannot be placed here.
  • The slots can hold all other items, making it especially useful for salvage kits, gathering tools, gizmos, non-wallet keys, or consumables you want an easy access to on multiple characters across your account, such as the Copper-Fed Salvage-o-Matic, Infinite Mist Omnipotion , Mistlock Sanctuary Passkey, Armistice Bastion Pass, Royal Terrace Pass, Bank Access Expresses, or Mystic Forge Conduits.
  • If a shared slot fills up with an item (ex. Unidentified Gear) and you have an empty shared slot, any additional items of the same type that enter your inventory will fill that additional shared slot before overflowing into your regular bags.
• Currently, an account can have a maximum of 24 shared slots:
  • 22 shared slots can be purchased from the Gem Store.
  • 1 slot is acquired by owning Heart of Thorns.
  • 1 slot is acquired by owning Path of Fire.
• The packs of 3/5 shared slots are delivered as 3 or 5 single-slot unlocks that can be consumed individually.

Trivia[edit]

• Shared Inventory Slots were introduced on January 12, 2016 in the Gem Store, with a limit of 5 slots per account.
• The Spring 2016 Quarterly Update on April 19, 2016 added a free slot to accounts with Heart of Thorns unlocked, and raised the limit of purchasable slots to 10.
• The limit for purchasable slots was further increased to 13 on July 12, 2016 ^[1], and to 16 on January 10, 2017.^[2].
• The August 01, 2017 update added a second free slot to accounts with Path of Fire unlocked, bringing the total available limit to 16 purchasable slots plus 2 free slots.
• With the release of Path of Fire, the limit was once again raised by 3 purchasable slots, bringing the total available limit to 19 purchasable slots plus up to 2 free slots. ^[3]
• On September 18, 2018, the limit was raised by 3 purchasable slots, to 22.^[4]

Guild Wars 2 offers many different convenience items that can save players’ time and effort. Most of these convenience items are only available through the Gem Store, Black Lion Chests or Trading Post (for a high price). With the recent introduction of Account-Wide Inventory Slots, convenience items have the potential to become even more accessible since they can be shared among all characters. While not obtainable for everyone due to their steep costs, convenience items offer attractive value for players who can afford them. It is important to note that several of the Gem Store convenience items are subject to limited availability and may not return to the Gem Store for long stretches of time. This list contains what we believe are the best convenience items in Guild Wars 2, plus other general convenience items that players should be aware of.

Best Individual Convenience Items

Max Inventory Slot Gw2 Leveling

Here are the best individual convenience items in Guild Wars 2.

Watchwork Mining Pick

The Watchwork Mining Pick is an infinite-use mining pick that provides a small chance to recover Watchwork Sprockets, a valuable crafting material. It is also one of the few (only?) convenience items that provide a realistic chance for breaking even with regard to cost.

• Cost:1000 Gems
• Since 2014, the Watchwork Mining Pick has been available for purchase four different times for a period of a few days to a few weeks
• The Watchwork Mining Pick provides a Watchwork Sprocket approximately every third mining strike

Copper-Fed Salvage-O-Matic

Essentially an infinite-use “Basic Salvage Kit”, the Copper-Fed Salvage-O-Matic allows you to salvage items in exchange for 3 copper. This tool can help you recover precious inventory slots by reducing the need to carry multiple salvage kits.

• Cost: 800 Gems
• For comparison, a Basic Salvage Kit costs 3.52 copper per use (25/88 copper)
• Limited Availability

Royal Terrace Pass/Captains Airship Pass

These passes grant access to the Royal Terrace or Havoc’s Heir areas located in Divinity’s Reach and Gendarran Fields, respectively. These special areas provide quick access to town resources such as the Mystic Forge, Personal Bank, Trading Post and Crafting Stations, etc.

Home Portal Stone

A Home Portal Stone transports the owner to their racial city’s Home Instance. It also allows you to return to the original location where you first used the Home Portal Stone.

• Cost: 900 Gems

Tarrktun Personal Delivery Portal

A Tarrktun Personal Delivery Portal is used to open a vendor interface to purchase destabilized ectoplasm. The vendor interface also allows players to sell items at anytime without having to leave their current location.
