I now carry more Forward Camps than I have group members.

NightbladeMechanics

And my groups were full this weekend. Yes, full.

One side effect of Midyear Mayhem.

Can these please be stackable and tradeable? I'd like to stick a bunch in my guild bank, and I genuinely don't see the harm in having them traded on the open market like any other consumable. Camps will not be sold widely because their nature, and honestly what's the harm if they are? You need AP sinks, and there are placement restrictions in the field.

All siege need to be stackable.

ZOS' argument against this was that siege receives damage, and that stacking a bunch of items with different health amounts is complicated.

I don't know why they don't let full health siege stack.

And Forward Camps in your inventory all have full health since you can't pick them back up once they're placed.

ZOS pls!

Heavily agreed.

Ok. I'll accept ZOS' argument about damage and point out to ZOS that all siege with the same health should stack. After all you can't choose to put down a fully healthy siege engine - the lowest health ones seem to go down first.

Or... How about a siege bag for subscribers?

I should probably destroy all the siege received during the Madness event, but they would be too expensive to replace; it would be madness.

I've suggested this a few times before. Furnishings need a "bag" too. Hell, I'd buy both on the Crown Store! ZOS, take my money already.

@Animal_Mother You actually can; just put down more than one seige engine at a time. The damaged one will go down first but you can put a full health one down after that. I don't see a reason why all the seige after that still couldn't stack though.

They could allow us to repair siege after use. Nothing is worse than lining up the perfect shot for a meat bag, placing it and getting off one lousy shot before the thing "dies". Maybe display the health of siege in inventory to prune the old ones. Some quality of life is needed here - stacking Forward Camps and full-strength siege should have been in the game from the beginning.

Another thing I don't understand is even though I can use all my repair kits, when I restock them, the quick slots are automatically repopulated; this isn't necessarily the same behavior for siege engines.

Seems simple enough to me. If we lay out several different Siege Engines at various levels of health, it own fault. Otherwise stack those with full health.

They already stack in the quickslot so I don't see why not in the inventory!

GreenSoup2HoT

Just gimme a siege bag.

Runschei

Oh dude I feel your pain. I managed to accidentally buy 50 camps once, and I had no idea where to put the camps. Stack the siege!

PocketNova

Stackable siege was on the cards for a while, was announced and everything. Guess they couldn't figure it out and came up with an excuse why.

Went back and found the patch notes from May 2014 when it was supposed to be introduced:

Siege equipment can be stacked to five in the inventory (with the exception of forward camps and mercenary contracts).

Was reported as being bugged but they never fixed it.

A siege bag would be great !

I see no reason why full health siege equipment cannot be stacked, it simply becomes 'unstackable' once used and it starts losing health.
