Introducing the Fragment Stash Tab!

This should be part of the map tab.

GGG rolled greed (69).

It's entirely unnecessary, and that's the point.

you don't in any situation *NEED* to buy it, but for some people its a great option.

That's the hallmark of a good micro transaction people, not a bad one.

couldn't this just be incorporated into map or currency tabs

yes it could

I think that too. it look's like ggg try to get more money by adding new tab insted of upgrade curency/map stash.

I am not against this tab, though I won't be buying it right away either. This isn't because I feel its a blatant cash grab or anything. Money is tight right now and I already have over 40 tabs with all the premiums (map div currency and essence and 4 quad for dumping on speedruns) as well. I use about three to 4 tabs per league on frags. Though it could save me tabs I don't know what I would do with them if I didn't have frags in them lol. It is a time saver, i know that currency saved me a bunch of time since i am trained to the exact spot on the screen where whatever orb I'm looking for is instead of searching through a cluttered tab. i mean all these tabs are huge time savers. I would think in a community like PoE's where farming efficiency is key people would realise that town efficiency is also key. How long do you spend in your stash and how do you organize it to spend less time. This tab will do exactly that it could save people mroe then an hour or two at least in a month. What worries be the most in this thread is people badgering people saying that money spent has no effect on the game.

I challenge anyone who is badgering people to put down your normal account next league. Make a new free account start with 4 basic tabs, put no money into the game and lets see you endgame. You will have to make more accounts to mule items after you max out characters inventories, did I mention since your character slots are your space you can only roll one build at a time? you will have to post your stuff onto the forums manually like we did it in the old school. I'm pretty sure you cant link items to the forums from character inventories. I would LOVE to see this. I bet GGG would be interested to.

GGG just like any company has the right to make money by creating new products, and I will never shame them for offering something new. I have sank over over $1k and over 1.5k hours into this game, and you know when the new packs come out I will prolly buy more and catch up one some of the neat things I've been missing out on. Maybe even this tab.

PS: can you ladies and gentlemen add an upgrade 4 premium stash tabs to a quad, I would pay 5 bucks each. If I could have purchased quad tabs when I first started, you hecking bet I would have. Since I have already spent the money a while ago, myself and other consumers like me won't think much about the 5 dollar up charge errrr I mean 50 points. My stash bar is really cluttered :( perhaps there is another answer though, improving the stash ui. /rant

You Failed
i Said better here:

Absolutely needed tab, thanks GGG!

Will this tab go on sale within the next 6 weeks or should I not hold my breath?

Agree

This brings back all my fears from back when we first heard that GGG would be working with Tencent on the asian version of PoE. Being highly familiar with Tencent and Perfect World Entertainment, and their pay to win games I had all sorts of fears that we would start to see inappropriate mtx.

We were promised up and down that Tencent's interaction, and the console release would not impact the design of the existing game, and that the existing PC version would still be the core of development. However this new tab is pretty rocky.

Simply, it's bad design. All of the items this tab stores are "map consumables" so when you already have a "map" tab for "map consumables" having a separate tab for different map consumables just makes no sense, except to add more microtransactions. Its a classic korean MMO tactic to unnecessarily subdivide purchasable storage, and it can be seen in all sorts of perfect world entertainment / tencent games.

I won't be buying this tab. I already have a wall of special tabs I have to scroll through to get to regular tabs, and this is just another unnecessary one. I won't be buying it not to make a statement about greed, or that it's unnecessary, but because it's bad design. Separating the same class of consumables like this is just illogical, and I won't support bad design whatever the reasoning.
