Script Storage desperately needed.

weins201 · June 14

Since these are account bound and Bank Space is critically important, we need to have a way to store these Script parts. Especially since they are Account bound but also Char Specific when used.

I suggest a Bookshelf, or a set of them, that can be labeled Scribbing Scroll Shelving. If a set or allow for 5 of them one for each style, Grimoires, focus, . . . . . they need to be bale to hold 50 ea if individual or 250 if one shelf.

Can be added to the Writ merchants, or even crowns. possible even achievement merchants.

I mean... just use them?

Why exactly?

It's only been 2 weeks. At this point you should just be consuming as many as you can.

I like the OP's idea.

Even though we are using most of them now eventually there will be duplicates that we will want to save for new alts, etc..

That makes sense if you are a one character player or are confident in which character will need which scripts.
With multiple characters, and most script cooldowns being account wide, if you don't know what scribed skills you want to setup on which character already, eating scripts potentially delays you when you do have a decision.

I play only 1 char and already collected all of them, and I still get these bound scripts that I can't sell and there's even a captcha when you try to delete them, like why lol.

They do that for items they feel are most likely to be important to players (by important I mean it has a good chance to lead to a Customer Support ticket if the item is accidentally deleted).

My main doesn't have the Flame Damage script learned yet. This way, I can do daily quests and save up Flame Damage scripts. Then, if I have another character who wants the Flame Damage script, I don't have to spam dailies for days and days in order to have a chance at getting one.

If they could stack, or if learning them unlocked the ability to purchase them without waiting for them randomly at the vendor (which can take weeks), this wouldn't take as much inventory space. But it's how they designed the drops, honestly.

Can't you mark them as junk and then delete without the "captcha"?

nope, if an item requires a delete prompt, it will always require a delete prompt

unless you use an addon to basically auto fill it out to skip it

it would certainly be nicer if the scripts would at least stack, when i was gathering up the mages guild scripts, which there is only 9 of them, i had to eat 90 bank slots to store enough for all of my alts

its still going to be a really long time before im totally maxed out on all of my toons, but it will get annoying if i start getting scripts that are bound, and not easily deletable

I vote decon into 5 ink.

TaSheen · June 14

Okay, must be an addon I have then. I never get a DELETE prompt.

Nathrai · June 14

Wouldn't it be enough to make them stackable? Not sure why they're not (they are, after all, carbon copies), but 60 slots for a full set of scripts sounds doable to me.

Though a deconstruct to add to collection system would be interesting, too. Pay transmute crystals to create a script you've learned before - or better yet, a currency you collect by deconstructing scripts (so new scripts you find won't just burn a whole in your pockets or flood the market).

Yes, this works for me through the junk category, and I'm pretty certain it's not an addon. No delete prompt through "Remove all junk" or whatever the button is.

EdjeSwift · June 15

Through complete happenstance, I realized something about this...

Why are you trying to destroy Scripts? Just vendor them.

WhiteCoatSyndrome · June 15

I would also like to see them stack, at least, and I wouldn’t mind a bookshelf for them either.

ArchangelIsraphel · June 15

They should either let us stack them, give us storage for them, or let us decon them into ink.

Making them unable to stack is entirely unreasonable give the bound nature of them, and the fact that we have to do this on multiple characters.

It's almost like scripts are the one thing that should have been account wide, if anything >_> Not that I'm advocating for more account wide stuff, mind you, but I just keep asking myself why they did it this way.

I mean....yeah, mess up my quest tracking by making the achievements account wide and remove the fun of getting achievements on separate characters, but by all means, make us collect the same script over and over for all 20 characters. Makes so much sense =_= Such fun!

Also if the data storage for having achievements for multiple characters was an issue...why does ZOS want our characters to have more repeated data in the form of script unlocks? This makes no sense.

Please make them stackable. I wouldn't mind so much if this wasn't so inconvenient. Remember why siege engines were made stackable? Because of inventory issues? Please. Consider your players! I don't even care about the grind, so much as I do being able to save scripts for characters who will need them.

Yet another unstackable artificial inventory bloater. Just like treasure maps.
