Larger bags?Follow

#1 Apr 25 2005 at 12:37 PM Rating: Decent
Hey everyone.

I'm finding it's tough to do a big harvesting spree when I've got such small bags! My bank won't hold much with them so small, my vault won't hold much, and I can't carry a whole lot either.

Right now I have two 6-slot rucksacks (6lb each!!) and four 4-slot small bags (which are weightless, apparently) on my person, and two 4-slot small bags in my vault.

I could buy more of the 6 slot rucksacks, but they're quite heavy, and my character is a high elf summoner, so he's not altogether brawny. Anyone have a suggestion for some inexpensive lightweight 6-slot bags? Or some cheap 8 slot bags in general (since if they're heavy I can always bank those ones)?

PS: Being a high elf means I'm in Qeynos, by the way. I am currently level 11, and intending to defect to Freeport when I am able. Dunno if any of this is relevant to bags or not, but I figured I'd mention it just in case.

Right now I've got about 50 silver, which isn't alot, but money doesn't seem nearly as tough to get in this as it was in the original EQ, so I'm not worried if I spend every nickel I've got. Being able to carry more stuff is worth it.

PS: Being a high elf means I'm in Qeynos. I am level 11, and intend to defect to Freeport once I'm able. Dunno if this is relevant to bags or not, so I thought I'd mention it just in case.

My first suggestion would be to quest for every bag you can find. There are a bunch of bag quests for the good side listed here in the quest section. Bootstrutters, (long quest - 10 slot bag reward), is a great one and there is also one for an 8 slot bag in Nettleville that is dead simple to get! Beyond that, there are a bunch of 4 slot bag quests that are simple to run and all will help you gain personal inventory storage space.

There is also a huge guest bag that is the result of a collection quest for each tier from tier two, (Antonica), on up. The Antonica quest is for 6 or 7 Antonican leaves and results in a 20 slot bag... and that's only the tier two version, they get bigger every tier!

For your bank slots, you should work on getting/buying boxes rather than bags. Boxes tend to have more slots per tier but are way too heavy to be carried into combat!

PS - don't forget, you can use the 4 "shared" bank slots and the two slots in your room vault for storage as well. You should get the biggest boxes you can afford for six slots too.

Sure thing! This is one of the collection quests. You are looking for 6 or 7, (not sure), Antonican Ficus Leaves in different colors.

You will find these in the tiny glowing question marks scattered around Antonica. Each one is a rare drop. Examine your first one to start the quest. Examine each new one to update the quest. When you've collected, (or purchased), and examined the whole set, you can turn the collection in to the guy standing in the park in North Qeynos. He will give you your new bag.

Further details can be found here

NOTE - Be aware that this reward was initally "designed" to hold only collectable items, (like forage items), but at this point the bag is "broken" and will hold anything. Chances are SOE will never fix this bug. (Just thought you should know that too!)
