Greetings All,

Can u share items between your toons if items are in bank?

Or is it like SWG,EVE where you had to have multiple accounts?

Thank You and see you online!!!!

Unless it changed all before launch your characters, "toons" as you call them, share one bank which personally I don't care for. I'd much rather have each character have its own bank, the space is already limited and I prefer to keep my characters separate.

There is a shared bank and I like the fact it is easy to share A LOT of stuff between chars.

Bank and Mail are shared.

Btw, no per character bank. Just bags; the total inventory space is very limited compared with other mmorpgs,

And another flaw with the ONLY-shared bank, all characters draw materials for crafting from the same bank. So if you have two characters working on crafting, they can BOTH draw from the same bank. While that may be handy for some, it also presents dangers that your newbie crafter will end up burning through resources the higher level crafter was stockpiling.

I would MUCH prefer individual banks and a small shared / transfer slot or two (or let us email items to ourselves)

Well, there is an easy solution for that: don't double-up on professions. If you plan on having two characters doing crafting, then split their focus. There's no point in having two blacksmiths.

Yeah not a big fan of the entire bank being shared. Another tab for shared bank would be fine with 50 slots.

The developers said that they did this on purpose in order to force limits on hoarders and in particular, crafting ambitions. They want people to *choose*. I'm ok with it, it frees me from feeling the need to gather everything on earth and saving it all. I get to choose.

Note that unlike WOW bound items are bound to account and not to character so you can let other characters inherit your old gear.

If anything it means if I'm a blacksmith on once character in the Aldmeri Dominion and a blacksmith on another in the Ebonheart Pact I can just raid the Pact's resources to feed the crafting needs of my Dominion character funneling her materials and racial crafting style books. I can simply hoard more because the characters share. I personally just prefer to keep it separate from a strickly gameplay point of view though...my Dominion character should not magically have access to the materials my Pact character collects and vice versa. For me it seems like a cheat and breaks my gameplay experience a bit because I prefer to use the things I collect on one character for that character not every one of them. Call me crazy but I guess I just want to work for what I create and know I did it solely with the character I'm playing.
