Anybody else wish there were THREE settings ingame for the guild bank?
1. Can deposit to guild bank.
2. Can SEE contents of guild bank.
3. Can withdraw from guild bank.

As it is right now guild members can "ninja-loot" as soon as they get withdrawal rights for the guild bank.
My guild gets by this by having only certain members being able to withdraw from the guild bank...obvious right?
Well, without the other members being able to see what is in the bank they cannot request specific items from the ones that can withdraw the items for them....so we get a lot of "is there any Blah-Blah in the bank?", and then having to go to a bank and check, just to send a message back saying there isn't any.
This makes the ones with withdrawal priveldges "not so happy".


Just thought this might be an easy way to fix the problem.

    It would be a very nice solution, IMHO.

    I can see what's in the bank and can start nagging the "guildmaster" to trade those juicy calcinium ingots with me, and I deposit 500 Red Rook pigs in exchange.

    Any member being able to see a gbanks inventory regardless of withdrawal privelages is pretty much as common in mmos as text chat.

    Don't use the bank to distribute stuff to players, why would you force players to do so much mircomanagment? The officers in guild need time to play too. I've played many mmorpgs with guild banks but not been in one who distribute crap to players except this game.

    Use the bank for guild property, like potions for guild runs and so on.

    Errr, i dont get something?

    Currently everyone can see contents of guild bank?
    Even people who dont have right to take items out of it.
    So anyone can check if there is something they need and then make specific request to person with withdraw rights.

    The problem you talk about might be lazy people who cant even bother to walk to the bank and check guild bank on their own?

    I just checked on a second account that is in my personal guild NOT ranked to be able to withdraw from the bank to be "triple-sure"...
    If you cannot withdraw from the bank it says "You do not have permission to withdraw from this bank."..it doesn't show you the items in the bank.

    What he said.

    You need permission to see bank content, and if you have the permission you can withdraw as well.

    Are you sure that there are items in the guild bank? I can see everything in the guild bank, even when I don't have any rights in that guild.

    It could also be a platform related issue.

    On PC we can see guild bank contents even without permission to withdraw. My guess is the console folks can't which is causing some confusion.

    Then it seems, once again, that PC has "must have" functions that the consoles do not.
