3. Gw2 Max Inventory Slots

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. Those Shared Inventory Slots were only available because of the L80 Boost. You can find copies of Heart of Thorns elsewhere, but you won't be able to add the Serial Key to your existing account. It is no more unfair than new players missing out on Living World Season One, or any of the other content or items that are no longer available. 8 slot bags can be made by crafters (tailor, leatherworker, armorsmith) with 20 tier 1 materials (jute scrap, rawhide scraps, copper ore) Each tier of crafting makes a higher quality bag (10 slots, 12 slots, 14 slots, etc). In addition to raw materials, these higher level bags require an increasingly expensive vendor item called runes of holding.

Things like bags, weapons, and armor can be equipped. Open your inventory with the [I] key, and double-click on equipment to equip it.

— Inventory

The inventory (default I) is a panel which displays all the items and unequipped equipment carried by a character, as well as their supply of coins, gems, and other currencies. Each character starts with a Starter Backpack which offers 20 spaces. This space can be expanded by adding up to nine additional bags. A character starts with five bag slots unlocked ( including the bag slot holding the starter backpack ). The other five bag slots require a purchase of the Bag Slot Expansion via the ingame Gem Store.

Search[edit]

The inventory has a search function to filter items, similar to the bank. The search term will match any item names containing the term. Players may also search by rarity or item type. You cannot search for common rarity items. For example, 'salvage item' will filter all salvage items.

Interaction[edit]

Double-click an item in your inventory to equip or use. Right-click an item to display other item options (not all options are available for an item, some options may be visible but not usable for some items):

• Equip (if it is equipable by your character — will prompt to confirm for items that are soulbound on use)
• Equip in Off Hand
• Preview (if it is equipment or some containers like the Black Lion Chest)
• Store in Wardrobe
• Use (if it is a consumable)
• Salvage Options for Salvage Kits
  • Salvage all Fine and Lower
  • Salvage all Masterwork and Lower
  • Salvage all Rares
• Item Collection Achievement (Displays the collection of which it is a part)
• Unlock Skin (for equipment new to the account)
• Deposit Material
• Mail item to... (to send it to another player through the mail)
• Sell at Trading Post (to see its value on the Trading Post)
• Buy more at Trading Post (to search for this item on the Trading Post)
• Destroy (Displays Yes/No prompt to confirm/stop destruction)
  • Some items further require that their (case sensitive) name be entered before they can be destroyed. One way^[1] to enter the name (in Windows machines) is:
    • Click Cancel to close the confirmation dialog
    • Shift-Left-Click on the item in inventory. The bracketed name will appear in the chat window.
    • Shift-Home, Ctrl+C to copy the bracketed name to the clipboard
    • Ctrl+V to paste the bracketed name into the name field
    • Backspace to delete the right bracket.
    • Home, Delete to delete the left bracket.
    • Right-Click on the item in inventory and click destroy.
    • Click Yes to PERMANENTLY DESTROY the item.
• Use All (for some consumables)

Drag an item to a bag in the column on the left to put that item in the first empty space in that bag.

Stacking[edit]

Stackable items can stack up to 250 per inventory space. Most crafting materials, junk, and containers are stackable. To split a stack in two, Alt+Click and drag the item to an empty inventory space. A dialog will prompt you to enter the quantity for the new stack. ( Slot bags do not stack up in Inventory )

On a Mac, same except 'Option Click and Drag'.

Expansion[edit]

Extra bags offer additional storage space (from 4 to 32 spaces per). Bags may be purchased from vendors, found as drops, obtained as Personal story or Living World rewards, or crafted by any of the armor-crafting disciplines: Armorsmith, Leatherworker, or Tailor.

Currently, the maximum number of storage space is 160 without Bag Slot Expansion(5*32). With Bag Slot Expansions the number can be increased by additionally 160, which results in a total of 320 storage space.

Types of bags[edit]

Shared Inventory Slots[edit]

Shared Inventory Slots can be accessed by all characters on the account. Soul-bound items and equipment that is soul-bound on use cannot be placed in these slots. Players that have purchased any of the Guild Wars 2 expansions (Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns or Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire) are given a free shared inventory slot containing a level-80 boost item for each purchased expansion. The boosts may not be moved out of the slots, but the slots will remain available for use should the boosts be consumed. Additional shared inventory slots are available for purchase in the gem store.
