Jay.5128 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Don't know if been stated before having the ability to see in other characters inventory from like a small drop down menu pretty much a glass window you cant open basically shared inventory slots but you cant touch with a search function. I just feel it be QoL when looking to see what you got and haven't out side of bank tabs and Crafting storage. saves you having to log in out like 40 characters to find what your looking for.Am guessing the tech might be there as of the shared inventory's why I am kind of putting it forward as something that maybe can be done.

Donari.5237 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Oh you mean other characters of your own? Check out gw2efficiency . com. You'll need to create an API with the relevant permissions on your ANet account page, and plug it in to the site (and maybe log in to each character once, I forget), but then you have all sorts of fancy things you can find out about which character has what, what your bank inventory is worth on the TP, what mats you need to craft things, etc. Plenty of filters to narrow things down.Hope that helps!

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 It's unlikely the Devs will create something that mirrors what players have created using the API the Devs released, just for that purpose.Still, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 It would be useful to have this in-game. I use GW2 Efficiency and it's not too much of a problem for me to have it open while playing since I play in windowed mode anyway, but in my other MMO I have an addon which lets me do it through a menu in the game itself and that's definitely easier since I can have it side by side with my inventory to compare things quickly.I recently got an exotic spear with decent stats as a random drop and it was annoying having to go through the GW2 efficiency menu, waiting for it to load everything up, to check what each of my characters was currently using so I could see who needed it. Not nearly as annoying as logging into each character in turn, which is the current in-game way, but still more hassle than I'd like for what could be a quick check. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 That seems like trying to solve a problem that mostly comes about as a result of trying to use characters as bank slots. Which might come about because using character as bank slot is much more cost effective and the character slot limit is much higher than bank slot limit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It mostly came about from me logging out and then logging in the next day forgetting I left something on one my character's when crafting and was Quite a bit lost having to log in and out all my chars trying to find it.But at the same time I don't see problem using a character slot as bank tab if your paying 800Gems.This is also why I said a "glass window" to not make shared bags lose value and same for bank tabs you can see but not touch.How I see it working in my head1 open inventory2 go to drop down menu where you can see all your characters can click on one3 Inventory then switches to that characters inventory4 You can then look about in the inventory if you hover over an Item it gives a you a tool tip of what it is and also says "this item cant be removed it belongs to another character "log out and changed to this character to remove it"5 close inventory or use drop down to switch back6 open inventory it resets it self back to the character you are on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
