Any way to use materials from bank before crafting bag?

Danikat

I had a sub for 30 days (so I could dye my costumes) and it's now run out. As a result I have some materials in my crafting bag and identical materials in my bank.

I want to prioritise materials in my bank or inventory, so those get used up first and I only use the ones in the crafting bag if there aren't any others, but I can't find a way to do that. I've just tested and it's using the ones from the crafting bag first. I can't see an option in the menus to change it or a way to specify which one to use when I'm at the crafting station.

Is it possible to use ones in the bank/inventory first? Or will it always take them from the crafting bag first and only use ones in the bank/inventory when those are all gone?

I have tried every way I can think of and it does not work. It pools all of the crafting materials to one number crafting bag and bank combined.

Thanks for checking.

That's annoying but I suppose I'll just have to live with it.

Due to the fact that crafting bag acts as an extension to the main inventory, it will function as such. Materials are pulled from the inventory first and then the bank so it will pull from the crafting bag first and then the bank.

I tried it with the materials in my inventory too and it was still pulling them from the crafting bag first.

It's a trap to force you to sub again. Don't feel bad, they got me too, lol

Aww... that's a PITA. But I can understand why ZOS designed it that way..
