Towatha.4671 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I understand that instant 80 tickets were disabled?? I'm thinking of getting the EoD prep pack which has an instant 80 ticket. I don't have a free shared inventory slot. How will this work? Through mail, but I can't use it until I free up shared slot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 The level boost has been re-enabled now. Also the ones which come from expansions also come with a shared inventory slot, the boost will be in that slot. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goettel.4389 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Note that you can only clear the extra slot by using the 80 boost - which you can also do on a lv80 character, which gets you the extras you get by boosting a lv1. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Level-80_Boost_Package 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towatha.4671 Posted August 9, 2021 Author Share Posted August 9, 2021 Thanks for the responses. I've decided not to get it since I need to free up a shared slot to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still early to my characters and do not want to jump straight to level 80 at all. I was seeing the expansion with the unlock as something I could stick in the bank because I've never used one in an MMO where I've had them. Learning it would gum up that shared slot until I get one of my current characters, and so ruin the thing I actually want, helps me not waste money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do not need to have a free slot for the lvl 80 boost because it comes in it's own extra shared inventory slot even if you are maxxed out on them. You get the new shared slot open after you use the boost so it works exactly like the boosts that came with the other expansions. Edit: as Inculpatus cedo pointed out below the boost doesn't come with a free shared slot. I was mixing it up with the expansion lvl 80 boost. Sorry.

Not true for the End of Dragons Preparation Package, which is what the OP is referencing. He/she would need an empty Shared Inventory Slot for the Black Lion Instant Level 80 Ticket. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/End_of_Dragons_Preparation_Pack https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Black_Lion_Instant_Level_80_Ticket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I made the same mistake, I forgot the preparation pack exists. But if you're planning on using the boost from the pack then I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem. Move something out of a shared slot, buy the pack, make a new character and boost them to 80 then put the original item back in the space. I don't know what other people keep in their shared inventory slots but I assume there's something you wouldn't need to use while creating a new character which could sit in the bank for a while. (I can't even remember what's in all my shared slots, but I'm sure there's something.) If you're not planning on using the boost right away it's a bit more of a problem but if I was in that situation I think I'd just use it on a level 80 to get it out the way and get the items, then level a character with tomes when I wanted to.

Bollocks.4078 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 The EoD Prep Pack gives a Black Lion Instant Level 80 Ticket. The wiki says "The Black Lion Instant Level 80 Ticket must be placed into a Shared Inventory Slot in order to be used." That seems to imply that it doesn't have to be in a shared inventory slot until you want to use it. Is that correct or does it actually have to always be in a shared inventory slot? Just looking to clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman.7518 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Its comes in a Shared Slot. When you try to move it into character inventory, dialog popups saying that this action will use this boost now. So "no", you cannot move it from Shared Slot.

Bollocks.4078 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 OK, thanks for the clarification. I guess it's just poor/inadequate wording on the wiki page. So pulling the ticket out of a shared inventory slot will consume the ticket and then consume the boost as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceman.7518 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Here is screenshots i just made in-game. 1st shows message (not a dialog, i lied) saying that "cannot move to inventory". 2nd shows a dialog when you use the boost. https://imgur.com/a/n0aBZtS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the ticket gives the Level 80 Boost item. Then you use that to boost a char to level 80. Do both have to be in shared inventory? The wiki for the ticket says it has to be **placed** in shared inventory to use. Is that correct or is the wiki page poorly worded? You can't place it in shared inventory if you can't take it out of shared inventory. So if you already had a level 80 boost and you buy the EoD Prep Pack you'd get the ticket. You'd then have a boost item in one shared inventory slot and the ticket in another shared inventory slot? Or is the ticket automatically consumed on acquire and gives the boost item? 1 hour ago, Inculpatus cedo.9234 said: It does have to be in a Shared Inventory Slot, and can not be moved until consumed.

Donari.5237 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) The tickets can be placed in your bank. Source: I have two of them in my bank. One I don't recall how I got as it's been there a while, but the second came with the EoD Prep Pack and I added it (they stack). I also have the EoD pre order 80 boost and that one is taking up a shared slot and cannot be removed. I am 99% sure it added a slot to stick the boost in, too. Since I had a perm kit in my last slot and the boost is in a slot to the right of that. I have 25 slots total at this point. Anyway, the EoD Prep Pack is a tremendous value if you want most of what's in it, as it's over 6K gems if bought individually and just 3K gems as a bundle. That ticket will take up an inventory slot in bank or on a character until you have a shared slot to hold the boost from it, but heck, you get a character slot with the bundle, you could make a mule to hold some things until you want to use them later. I'm not pushing you to spend the money if you don't want to, but if the only factor stopping you is misunderstanding how the 80 ticket works, I hope the above has helped clarify things so you can make an informed decision.

Towatha.4671 Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 If I get the collection of all 3 expansions, do I get 3 max level boosts? Does anyone have experience of this recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungozen.2379 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 No, the wording on the Ultimate Collection is singular; Shared Inventory Slot, Max Level Boost, Additional Character Slot. You will get one of each, not three of each. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towatha.4671 Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 Thanks, so £52 for standard HoT+PoF and standard EoD. includes 2 max level boosts and 2 shared inventory slots. or £44 EoD standard collection with only 1 max boost and 1 shared inventory slot. Wonder which I'll pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than someone places the instant 80 ticket in it. How could someone be so evil and do something disgusting? Why oh why do I now have an extra shared inventory slot, after I did use the instant 80 boost? What evil think will the hacker further do? Give me an extra character slot, when I order the deluxed version? How cruel is that? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would only be able to use it to upgrade a core only account or for a new account. At least I'm pretty sure that is how it works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) @BadHealer.3608 Not sure what that has to do with the End of Dragons Preparation Pack. Which, as it turns out, does not require a Shared Inventory Slot until one wants to use the L80 Boost.
