Why do you have to be Level 4 to Access your Stash?

We used to be able to access stash at any level. Then they made it level 4. Then it was three quests. Then it was level 4 again.

The real reason is because they borrowed some code from SL, and that was part of the library. They said it was because people were exploiting stash by remaking toons and dumping in stash. That's absurd, of course. In SL that could happen because SL is sringy, but not in PL. In PL at the time you could get more potions by running in FH.

So when we argued this, saying it's absurd because you can get pots faster in FH, do you know what they did? They cut down the drop rate of potions!

That's right... they actually made it harder to get potions from drops. Now you can't even farm potions. They want you to spend 1,500 gold at Ellie or 1,250 in a tier 3 guild. And you can't earn that much gold during level 1 to 5 anymore. Which means, when you think about it, the only way to get enough potions for a new player is to start with a premium character, or buy them with plat (see today's DotD).

But even if you do start with a premium, you still can't access stash.

IMO, if you buy inventory slots (or get a premium upgrade), stash should become immediately available. They want plat, I have no problem with that! But I want something in return. I want stash for my L1 twink. :)

Here's hoping that Drew is right.

Completely agree!

In addition I think it's also to trap new players into thinking "oh if I get to level 4, I can unlock this special feature" so they will continue playing though Forest Haven and get a better sense of what the game is like.

... to make my level 1 sad. :vmad:

Yes That is a Good reason! Or maybe make it acces at lvl 1 if your char is made a month ago?

Yeah this solves the noob way of making 50 coins while also making level 1 twinks possible.

But honestly 50 coins isn't a lot, and if they store pots the cheap way, wouldn't that help them throughout the game when they need pots instead of rage quitting?

Botting would add up to a ton of potions though...
