Why can't Gylphs in the bank be stacked?

Why is it sometimes the junk glyphs you find stack in the decon menu and some will not. It sure would be nice for bank space to stack these, and stack them all up in the devon menu. I collect them as i play and use them to level up alts enchanting. I normally wait til my bank is about full then go break them all down. These sure do take up a lot of space
Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    They don't want them to stack. You wouldn't feel quite so much pressure to purchase bag space in the crown store if they did.

    Yes, it's always frustrated me that some things don't stack. Created weapons/outfits don't either, even if they're the same material/trait/style. If items are the same, they definitely should stack and I can't quite see a reason that they don't. Provisioning and alchemy do, so why not glyphs and gear?

    Because on the decon menu, it's simply showing quantity. In the bank it's set up as one per slot.
    • The in-code answer: stack_size = 1
    • The development answer: They opted not to give items weight and implement encumbrance, and strength attributes.
    • The design answer: It's a combination of poor design and it forces the inventory management time sync and reduces storage space on the server.

    The bag space argument might actually have some merit if it were possible to buy housing storage or expanded (beyond the current in-game limit) caps. It's currently not possible to do either.

    OP, I could see a smaller limit on siege. Jewelry is another one of those things that fallls into this category.

    I can store a stack of 200 raw, unrefined ore in less space than a handful of glyphs, rings, and necklaces...

    It's ass-backwards.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Some said glyph has styles just like armor and weapons, it explains why some stack and not other.
    However its no need to store them longer than until logging on the character who deconstruct to train enchanting.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    Yeah, step by step (and some steps were bigger than others) everyone has taken this thread off track.

    Regardless of precise wording the meaning of the "They don't want them to stack. You wouldn't feel quite so much pressure to purchase bag space in the crown store if they did", the point was that by using real money (directly by purchasing Crowns or indirectly by paying for ESO+ and acquiring Crowns) you can alleviate inventory problems relating to the non-stacking of certain items, such as the aforementioned glyphs and siege weapons.

    So long as an item is identical then I think it should stack, so I think that the intricate items you collect should also stack, though obviously they will still require several slots due to variety of armor and weapon types.

    Overall, I am satisfied with the ESO inventory status, but bear in mind I am an ESO+ customer and have maxed out everything. I also think that HOUSING should be utilized for inventory and gear set-ups.

    Glyphs are very powerful, containing a vast amount of energy. Stacking them would cause that energy to amplify and cause all sorts of issues for our characters as well as possible devastation throughout Tamriel.

    With add on to move Glyphs from PC to bank and then into char which needs to decon these glyps for XP there is actually not that much of a problem. With a guild roaster or friends list it just takes a step to open roaster, right click for options to teleport to nearest (friend/guild member) Wayshrine, interact again with WS and from there to any place with a craft station. Make sure to interact again with WS and it should cost you no gold at all.

    Bank Manager Revived can be set up to automatic move items from PC to bank and from Bank into character which need items for XP in crafting. Best option is going for a manual set up as with a profile (you will see a button where you can have different pre-set profiles for what you want to do). That way you will be more in control for when you move things and where they are. With auto I had always to move back Surveys, if you wanted to use them on the character I was playing and had used auto (which where set to move all survey into bank). With manual button you can decide, if you want to wait to move things and also change between different profiles (one that just move that items you want and not other). MBR is a very powerful tool and take some tinkering to learn how it works.

    It a very good tool to manage things automatic or manual (with press of a button) when one have several characters. The only limitation will be amount of bank space and individual inventory space.

    With CraftStore you will be able to decon all glyphs with press of one button (and keep crafted glyphs, if you pick that option) and is today a very good tool for everything with crafting in general, for making glyphs it have a pre-set where you only will need to remember to use the cheapest aspect rune while before crafting (don't want to waste Kuta on writs) and set how many you need in the window. Another thing worth to know is that you can create glyphs on one character, log out and decon on another character and gain XP in Enchanting; all on one the same account. Invest your XP level into skill line for gaining more mats from decon and you will have runes to keep this up in the long run.

    In short there is today good tools, if you are on PC that will reduce the struggle it was for some years ago to decon/do writs/move stuff around.

    I would also recommend to use Inventory Insight to let you see every PC inventory, bank, Guild bank etc as long you have interacted at least once with each of these types inventory space. Inventory Insight have plenty of good filters to find what one are searching for rather fast so that is why I would recommend to use Inventory Insight and fast access with a keybind everywhere you would need to see how many Writs Vouchers, Gold on each PC etc you have without going to bank.

    PS
    I think runes can be stacked, so decon is a better option then saving low level Glyphs and they are more useful as they can be used to increase XP or sold.

    Something which is left out of discussion is that one Glyphs = three runes from inventory management. The first three type of will need three spots, but then they can be stacked.

    In anyway Glyphs and Runes where a much larger problem in the beginning of this game as you had three type of nodes to collect runes from. Today you get all three (aspect, potency and essence runes) from interacting with one node which make it much easier to have enough of base material to create glyphs.

    Except for one thing; you can buy bank and inventory space for gold you earn in the game. Without ever paying real money for crowns or subbing to get crowns.

    I maxed my bank space before such a thing as "crowns" existed. I was well on the way to maxing inventory space for all 8 of my characters at the time without "crowns". I also stuffed my horse full of oats every day to add inventory space. Not a crown in sight.

    Someone can use crowns to speed up the process, if they want. However there is no "need" to pay real money to do so.

    Not everyone can, or chooses to, use addons. Basic functions like stacking of items should in any event be a basic part of the default system.

    While I love the game as it is, there's no doubt in my mind that it would be significantly improved in a whole lot of ways if ZOS were to disable all addons for a month and then take feedback on what features people missed the most with a view to incorporating them into the base game across the platforms. Heck, we might even end up with a decent trading system :wink: !

    you are able to expand your bagspace to max WITHOUT the crownshop!!!!

    Only if you a) take the time, and b) grind out the gold.

    From the perspective of a casual user, which constitutes a not-insignificant portion of any MMO user base (because subscriber churn is a thing), it is very tempting to skip the grind and just pay up...I don't even know what a thousand crowns costs, but whatever that amount may be. This is how the F2P model works - everywhere. One of its staples is selling the user convenience - faster XP gain, more inventory space, et cetera. You don't have to do it, but it is tempting enough for some users to want to do it, especially for those users who cannot or do not wish to commit to a significant grind.

    As such, the statement "but I maxed out the bank space on all my 26 characters for free" is not an argument. The classic F2P user breakdown used to be something like 70% "freeloaders", 20% "occasional buyers" and 10% "frequent-buyers-to-big-spenders". [Pre-Microsoft Skype, which isn't a direct comp but still an interesting case study, used to literally make most of its revenues off the top 2%-3% of users.] So congratulations, you're in the 70% "freeloader" cohort. Drinks all around.

    And so yes, I suspect in this case while the original problem may have been development-oriented, by the time this came up in a design meeting involving any of the higher-ups the resultant decision was as much business-driven as anything else. I.e. they want you to spend crowns on inventory/bank space, not the least as ZOS is owned by some very revenue-oriented people (a private equity shop called Providence).

    ZoS should hire some of these people that made the add-ons so they can bring some of the additions to the base-game interface for console users. It's amazing how much time we on console have to spend on menial tasks and labor that PC players do not have to spend.

    Idk maybe if you had real life friends who played the game on Xbox and you wanted to join them. That's why I play the game on console.

    I'm sure there are many others who have reasons why they play on console instead of PC.

    If the game isn't meant to be played on consoles then they wouldn't have released console versions.

    Furthermore I wasn't even asking the question of why would you play it on console but rather I was pointing out that the way the interface and inventory functions without add-ons is not good and should be addressed. There are many of us who play on console whether you like it or not so please take your elitist attitude about gaming systems and shove it.

    True, it's not realistic, but it sure beats the Tetris approach older RPGs took. "Hmm...maybe if I surround this battle axe with all these gems, I can fit an extra horned helmet..."

    And who remembers the days when coins had weight? Players used to make money in EQ by traveling deep into dungeons and offering players money changing services. For a small cut, they would convert your copper pieces to silver and silver to gold, etc.

    Im not sure if i butchered the quotes here, but here we go.

    I remember in a game long ago. Asheron's Call where the gold were the unit of weight, so you had to convert it into paper that cost 10% to convert back into gold to be usable.
    Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    With add on to move Glyphs from PC to bank and then into char which needs to decon these glyps for XP there is actually not that much of a problem. With a guild roaster or friends list it just takes a step to open roaster, right click for options to teleport to nearest (friend/guild member) Wayshrine, interact again with WS and from there to any place with a craft station. Make sure to interact again with WS and it should cost you no gold at all.

    Bank Manager Revived can be set up to automatic move items from PC to bank and from Bank into character which need items for XP in crafting. Best option is going for a manual set up as with a profile (you will see a button where you can have different pre-set profiles for what you want to do). That way you will be more in control for when you move things and where they are. With auto I had always to move back Surveys, if you wanted to use them on the character I was playing and had used auto (which where set to move all survey into bank). With manual button you can decide, if you want to wait to move things and also change between different profiles (one that just move that items you want and not other). MBR is a very powerful tool and take some tinkering to learn how it works.

    It a very good tool to manage things automatic or manual (with press of a button) when one have several characters. The only limitation will be amount of bank space and individual inventory space.

    With CraftStore you will be able to decon all glyphs with press of one button (and keep crafted glyphs, if you pick that option) and is today a very good tool for everything with crafting in general, for making glyphs it have a pre-set where you only will need to remember to use the cheapest aspect rune while before crafting (don't want to waste Kuta on writs) and set how many you need in the window. Another thing worth to know is that you can create glyphs on one character, log out and decon on another character and gain XP in Enchanting; all on one the same account. Invest your XP level into skill line for gaining more mats from decon and you will have runes to keep this up in the long run.

    In short there is today good tools, if you are on PC that will reduce the struggle it was for some years ago to decon/do writs/move stuff around.

    I would also recommend to use Inventory Insight to let you see every PC inventory, bank, Guild bank etc as long you have interacted at least once with each of these types inventory space. Inventory Insight have plenty of good filters to find what one are searching for rather fast so that is why I would recommend to use Inventory Insight and fast access with a keybind everywhere you would need to see how many Writs Vouchers, Gold on each PC etc you have without going to bank.


    List of useful add ons for getting XP crafting

    Inventory Insight

    CraftStore CC

    Bank Manager Revived

    Use Minion to search and install these add ons!

    PS
    I think runes can be stacked, so decon is a better option then saving low level Glyphs and they are more useful as they can be used to increase XP or sold.

    Something which is left out of discussion is that one Glyphs = three runes from inventory management. The first three type of will need three spots, but then they can be stacked.

    In anyway Glyphs and Runes where a much larger problem in the beginning of this game as you had three type of nodes to collect runes from. Today you get all three (aspect, potency and essence runes) from interacting with one node which make it much easier to have enough of base material to create glyphs.

    Merry Xmas to you all!

    Now do consoles.

    Why would I cripple myself playing on a console when I get better options playing on my PC?

    Just sayin'.

    That's like me saying that I want to play the game in DOS. Whats the point?

    Idk maybe if you had real life friends who played the game on Xbox and you wanted to join them. That's why I play the game on console.

    I'm sure there are many others who have reasons why they play on console instead of PC.

    If the game isn't meant to be played on consoles then they wouldn't have released console versions.

    Furthermore I wasn't even asking the question of why would you play it on console but rather I was pointing out that the way the interface and inventory functions without add-ons is not good and should be addressed. There are many of us who play on console whether you like it or not so please take your elitist attitude about gaming systems and shove it.

    Quite so, plus there are plenty of us who play on PC but choose not to use addons and expect basic game functions like item stacking to be provided within the core game design.

    Agree this would be handy. Siege too.

    siege used to stack but used siege were altering health of non-used siege when stacked and devs couldn't figure out a way around, so fixed it by making them unstackable and apparently wanted all siege to stack whether used or new in same stack because of quick slot usage (eso live source)
    no idea why new siege couldnt stack and used siege not stack with quickslot using used siege first, same way quickslot uses used siege first now without stacks

    The forum moderators don't have a clue regarding game mechanics/crown store reasons. The forum moderators only deal with the forums. I doubt the Community Managers would be able to, or allowed to, make any statements about why decisions were made one way or another.

    A lot can't stack that should imo. You don't even have an option to stack items from a build bank. You have to manually pull it out and stack and put back in. Some easily logical options just aren't available and in an update, ZOS will act like it's some new revolutionary idea when we are like "it's been 2 years...."
