March Sale, Build and Gear Template Expansions are 30% off & Build Storage Expansions are 40% off!

The entire system's implementation has been, as you implied, a bit shoddy. Where a Bag Slot becomes tempting to most players on a "main" or heavily played character over time for the convenience... This system feels like such a sucker punch with its overpriced components being sold separately.

It's convenient but not convenient enough for most people to consider it, I think.

Personally, I just keep a notepad file with the template lines and substitute them in-game when I need them. A bag slot on my most played character with an Invisible Bag that contains my spare armour and trinkets did the trick, too.

I'd be happy to dish out some money if the Equipment and Build templates were accountbound, since that'd actually be value for the price. But at present, they're just minor conveniences I can easily bypass. My laziness level isn't high enough, haha.
