GGG, please give us a little currency pouch for mapping or let us use them from stash
Titan supremacy gang šŖšŖšŖ
Agreed! Although I do wonder why wallets or pockets.. for currency.. do not exist in Wraeclast.
Imagine if we thew our pocket money in a giant bag full of random crap every time we headed outside š
You’re describing about 98% of women on the planet
Nah man, women have wallets too.
In their bags of random shit xD
Thats what we want too. A wallet for our random bag of shit.
I had a messenger bag for the longest time that was great. A backpack was overkill. Wallet would’ve been fine most of the time, but let me have my hands free if I need to carry like 2 things
Since when are women allowed to have pockets?
They didn’t exist in poe1 because you only had 6 tries at a map. And to deter people from filling their inventories.
Now we don’t have that limit so it’s weird
Can you still not Ctrl click shit from pouch?
Was so annoying back when I was playing Titan
You can for putting mats in your stash, but not for maps in the map device. Itās definitely annoying.
It’s funny that it’s actually super convenient, but would love a use first ascendancy node that isn’t a fanny pack.
Itās the price you pay for the one afterwards
It can be a utility, just add “adds 1 charm slot” as well, or something that adds a little more functionality.
No, your inventory needs to hold 10 items max so it feels like 1995 or the immersion will be broken.
There was a period of time in I think mercenaries or keepers in poe1 where the mapping device’s incentory meant for holding maps would actually let you use currencies on strongboxes essences etc. everyone I know loved it and then they said it’s a bug and fixed it.
Well, it was a bug, as in it was not intended behavior. This means that it very likely had all sorts of loopholes that could be abused, as no intended restrictions, limits, or error handling was set up for it. Obviously that should be fixed.
They should make it an intended feature though. Do it properly, and really as soon as possible.
I mean I know it’s a bug I was still bummed out and wish they would’ve just added it, made some strats so much nicer to do.
They wanted map portals to have a cost of taking stuff into/out of the map and then went and made it so you can enter/exit a map infinitely in PoE2 as long as you don’t die lol.
I personally absolutely hate this mechanic. It was cool and unique back then, but today it’s so obsolete.
How’d you like it to work then? Infinity inventory? Or just accessing you stash directly?
[removed]
Well, a bigger inventory?
How big then? Everyone will always want more.
Big enough that currency isn’t an issue. So, like, the post itself? I don’t give a rats ass about the inventory size for gear, but having to dump into my stash every five minutes is annoying as shit. I’m not even at maps yet and the first twelve squares on my inventory are always filled up with currency.
Not being able to do an ascendancy trial without hitting my stash is just dumb. Again I’m not at maps and I don’t have a loot filter because I need my gold, but the overall point remains through endgame. Currency taking up your inventory is dumb at this point. And so far it’s three times as bad with POE2 as it was with POE.
make the player inventory fit about 4x what It currently can, allow us to access currency from the stash during map events. That’s all
4 x the size “that’s all” lmao
What’s funny about that idea? When they added the quad stash tabs did you think it was absurd?
Well 4 x the size is a large increase, it is roughly 4 times the size!
“That’s all” makes it sound like you are suggesting a small change.
The disparity was quite funny, that’s all.
I do also happen to think it is an absurd idea, but that wasn’t what I found funny or what I was pointing out.
When they added the quad stash tabs did you think it was absurd?
No because it is absolutely nothing like similar?
1 square becomes 4 squares, occupying the same pixel area as before. In other words, exactly the same thing they did for the quad stash tab is what I’m asking for the player inventory. I don’t get how you don’t see the similarity, or why you would think it’s an absurd idea. Why would a player have a problem with more inventory space?
Genuine question - do you actually not see how increasing the number of square for a given tab of effectively unlimited tabs is different to changing the number of squares in the single player inventory tab and why one has gameplay implications and the other does not?
Because i will genuinely answer but I am surprised you can’t see it.
My point is that the UI aspect of this change I’m proposing is solved and already in use. It works and nobody complains about it.
Now the questions are, why not apply this 1to4 UI grid in the player inventory as well? More importantly, how would the game suffer/become worse if players had more inventory space in their characters? Because I can’t see any negative points to this change.
Just an inventory that’s big enough for like, one full juiced map. I always feel as if 2-3 rows would mean I wouldn’t have to leave.
Becomes less of an issue as the league goes on obvs, but when even simple magic bases can be worth multiple divs, it’s stupid not to pick stuff up in this game
Wait. What. Say that again? Magic bases can be worth divines???
I mean the good shit on my build basically does, at least. I’m 100% certain there are other builds that have the same with less strictness.
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Runes%20of%20Aldur/KlQz8PXgI5
It’s pretty easy to say “Oh I want this I want that” for a specific build and hit the trade and be like holy shit that is completely unaffordable even at magic rarity.
Dude, yes!
Quarterstaffs and any bows with T2 Inc Phys have netted me 6-15 divines each.
It’s up to you if this is worth the time picking up, Id’ing and aug’ing ofc, but damn it feels good when you hit. I actually really dislike that it works like this because I waste so much fucking time Id’ing and lightly crafting stuff. My loot filter is pretty damn strict too, Uber Strict with a lot of customisations.
Rings and necklaces especially are fat.
I sold a Vile chest with T1 spirit and no other mods for 6 divines. Rings with flat damage are dope, you can either essence craft and exalt slam, or sell as is.
35% MS speed boots on good bases (hybrid es/ev or ES) can go for 2-4 divs depending on second mod.
Honestly, I don’t even check rares all that much, even t5. They just feel a bit shit. Magic bases and perfect transmuting white bases are where the money is at.
Legit, I don’t know how else you’re supposed to make actual usable money. Currency doesn’t drop in a reasonable enough quantity for the average player when some upgrades can be 40+ divines.
so fucking stupid, no auto sort either, gotta play the fucking tetris because apparently it improves the overall experience
its so they can sell more p2w stash tabs
8 because scrolls
I started playing this week and even though I’m still only in act 3 it feels like all I’m doing every 50 metres is port back to town to identify, salvage and sell. I’m hoping this isn’t as pronounced going forward when I start hiding loot but my god the inventory space is just absurd. At least let me rotate items so that I can at least play this stupid Tetris game.
At some point, you have to learn how to prioritize gear and just leave the bulk of it on the ground. Loot filters help with this.
and then they added maxing map boss with shrine boosting
Sound like you need a loot filter or increase the strictness of the lootfilter you have.
But regarding rotating items I have also though about that ever since playing Tarkov. It’s kinda stupid that we can’t rotate items in Poe or D2
Honestly, salvaging and selling is mostly a waste of time in the campaign, outside of socketed items and flasks to get Artificer Orbs and Glassblower Baubles. You don’t need very good gear to finish the campaign, and you’ll start getting a lot more crafting currency in the endgame. When I first started playing I was doing the same thing as you, and once I got to the end game, I realized how much time I’d wasted salvaging a bunch of gear in the campaign. Now during the campaign, I just pick up rares my class can use and if my inventory is full, I just stop picking up new gear and wait to salvage/sell until I’m already going back to town to turn in a quest.
by act 3 you should really only be ID’ing rares and even then only ones that could use an upgrade. You can also bulk buy wisdom scrolls at vendors so you can just ID and drop if it’s bad. But I’d avoid picking up anything gear wise that isn’t usable by you.
you don’t need to rotate items lol, you just need to stop picking up crap
only pick up rares that are 2x2 or 1x2, gloves/helm/boots/jewelry unless you’re looking for a specific larger item (wep chest etc) for your build
Vendor them for $ Check vendors for good shops every time you’re in town (changes every time you level up)
Pick up currency.
Loot filter makes all of this drastically easier, filterblade’s default one will more than serve you without any changes
It’s unnecessary, unless you’re intentionally salvaging for a specific reason - like transmutes, or whatever. If you’re actually looking for an upgrade to an item slot, you only really need to pick up one or two base types. Identify quickly with a scroll and drop if it’s bad, then move on.
Once you know how to prioritize drops you only have to go back to town once, twice at most. By the sounds of it you’re picking up borderline everything, which is pretty much the opposite of what you’re gonna be doing once you get used to it some more.
all other modern ARPGs have configurable “stash all” buttons.
but GGG wants players to waste time on stupid shit instead of playing the game
im sure china client has the insta-stash button though
Yea itās the intended pacing argument. Chris discussed this recently when he started playing path of Diablo and saw how they doubled the inventory size.
1995? You wouldn’t be able to stack anything..
Just be glad your money isn’t in stacks of 10k š
eh, the teasers previus to the gold inclusion had gold in inventory and stacked like 20k, luckily they changed that to what we have XD
Just let me open my map tab from within the map device, at the very least.
And why the maps and tablets are in separate stashes?
Because GGG fixed them to separate stash. For reasons. Mainly asking people to buy another specialised stash. (Which is not something bad, it’s their business model.)
Also in PoE1 tablet-like items have changed multiple times over time, so tablets here might be changed down the line as well.
Yeah. In PoE1, the tablet equivalent is scarabs which go in the fragment tab. Youāre right that they may end up changing tablets in the future. Thatās probably the main reason it is on the fragment tab.
If GGG was more greedy, they easily could have separated the fragment tab into three different tabs.
Not just scarabs, previous iteration of tablets was working similar to sextants. It is very unlikely though for them to switch from fragments tab to something else, as it would be very unfriendly for people who already bought fragments tab.
Let’s not pretend what they didn’t do isnt greedy and fantasize a scenario where it can be worse.
Than monetization conversation loses a lot of weight when PoE2 has an entry cost right now.
I dunno if Iām missing something but the QoL I want the most for mapping is the ability to make your map device big like you can in PoE1. Itās so small and it constantly uses portals from the backside of the device first, so you have to try and click past a portal to hit the device to load a new map.
It feels like an attempt to get you to buy an MTX device but in PoE1 the shift between small and large device was free
I just want a sort button and a quick transfer to storage button for all currency etc besides gear. Bonus points if you can customize it.
Then you wouldn’t feel the weight of every item in your inventory.
Could be a belt Implicit
Wallet size?
Fanny pack.
The implicit should be “+x to inventory space”
or a strongbox node on tree
FEEL THE WEIGHT EXILE
this is path of exile, if you aren’t constantly smashing your balls with a hammer you’re just not feeling the weight hard enough
Imo if you bought the stash for currency you should be able to use them on strongboxes in map. Also if you have map stash you should access this from map device.
That is arguably pay to win right there. We donāt need things like that being added.
Which is why you should just be able to pull from the stash regardless of what specific tab, You start with storage space so it is a non issue anyway.
If you play trade league poe is already pay to win. It always has been.
it’s a just a tolerable level of pay to win compared to a ton of other ARPGs.
If you bought the game in early acces and didnt spend some of your 300 currency on currency tab and map tab, what are we even doing
its QoL . you dont win anything
QoL =\= giving you more inventory space and/or making your maps quicker.
But then they would actually have to think of a legit assendency point for the Titan. š¤
Let titan stack one item in one square, thematically fits (stronk) and actually useful without making the character itself super strong.
GGG still think they are making old school games. Yet we are in 2026. UI and QoL much important compare to 30 years ago. I hope they will understand. Still we are clicking for everything, there is no stash sorting button in 2026ā¦
I’d rather play a great game with little QoL than a soulless game filled with QoL.
Okay sure, but why not a great game with good QoL? Or is that just impossible
It’s not impossible, just much harder to actually pull off, and, for better or worse, there’s always an aspect that is lost.
The poe 1 lab would be one example. Both through powercreep and QoL changes, just about every aspect of it has been reduced to present the player with the least resistance possible, and now the final lab is both incredibly easy to acquire/unlock and to complete. It’s an empty shell of its former self.
Obviously i’m not arguing that every bit of QoL is evil, that’d be silly. But it’s not exactly a trivial matter either.
I mean yeah of course, thatās why I wrote GOOD QoL not as much QoL as possible. The Quality of Life itself also has to be of good quality
At some point too much QoL just washes away the identity of the game and makes it bland and boring
I guess I can see what you mean but I think the game has so much identity already, the QoL stuff like a currency pouch or a stash all currency buttown wouldnāt impact that at all. They already added a lot of QoL like in game trade, in game build planner, refund skills with gold, gold as a currency, sprint, gem system etc. All these things are only a positive and I think if you ask most people, it didnāt take away itās identity.
Edit: these changes also add to POE1 and 2 feeling pretty different despite having the same core gameplay. You can appriciate both for what they are IMO
idk its a slippery slope. Look at D4. theres all the QoL in the world, and yet the items and progression systems seem bland and boring. I’m much happier with less QoL and a more immersive game
“Slippery slope fallacy”
It being a fallacy isn’t the only reason the term “slippery slope” exists.
But itās not the QoL fault for that. If they add more QoL into poe itās not gonna make the progression and items boring, thereās basically zero correlation between the two. So why canāt there be an immersive game with good QoL as well?
I’m not completely in disagreeance with the concept that qol spam can make a game worse, but that’s definitely not the case in d4. QoL in d4 has absolutely nothing to do with its item progression system design. Literally just look at the public opinion of d4 over time, people hated it when it came out and this latest season was very well received even by PoE gamers.
That being said, I do agree that some things would be too far. Auto pickup currency would be too far, small radius area where you pick up the same currency type when you click would be hand strain reduction.
I’d say that d4’s system of every item being the same size is absolutely a QoL change aimed at inventory management, but it does take away from the items themselves.
Thereās a reason itās called the slippery slope fallacy. Itās not a good argument.Ā
The fallacy is still based on the term slippery slope. Not everything related to it is immediately the fallacy.
You can have both. GGG isn’t a small company full of inexperienced devs.
Then why don’t we? Because it goes against their foundation of what makes a good game. And they make a good game. Woopsiee said it well.
Alright then, remove ctrl+click. Too qol. Breaks muh immersion. Genuinely, what is the difference between that and a deposit currency into stash button?
hes just talking out of his ass for absolutely no reason.
Sure! In the next patch we will nerf warrior so he only has 10 cells in inventory, so other classes can enjoy a lot more cells!
That would be 5.99usd
and i’d happily pay it lmao
I would honestly be OK for now with an option to lock parts of my inventory. I’m tired of having to take a new batch of exalts to put in my inventory every time I’m using the currency exchange.
Yes! This too. Being able to add compartments to my inventory would help, massively!
Never going to happen, to either idea. GGG actually wants you to make a choice of keeping currency in your inventory during mapping or not.
Chris Wilson just posted a video of him playing a mod for D2 that includes an expanded inventory and he said he’s not sure he likes it as the timing of when you needed to go back to town was important. I know he’s not with the company anymore, but the design philosophy is definitely shared by GGG.
What choice? To see the load screen or not? We donāt even have limited portals now, itās just waste of player time.
Yes actually. That is the choice do you take everything in and ID and all that shit in the middle of the map or do you want those extra like five slots so you can fit another piece of gear in there that is the choice that they want to force. You act like you’re the first person bring this up dude they had Path of Exile one out for over a decade and never wanted to implement something like this.
Like think about this you have to click on the fucking well to refill your flasks, when they could just make them refill When you entered town or your hideout. Instead you have to actually qalk over and click on it.
Edit: as someone pointed out, if you want something like that you can play titan.
In poe1 you have to spend ādefensive layerā to tp back and forth and there are only 6 entry to map. In poe2 in doesnāt matter now, you can take out every single piece of trash from floor of you want to.
Also does anyone like the well? We just donāt have agency about it beside not to play the game and it will be barely affect the well existence.
He doesn’t act like he is the first person to bring it up.
Even if it is a deliberate choice it is fine to criticize something or to not like it and voice it.
Just give us an option to lock items in their places. Too many times i forgot about mapping items and stashed them all
There at least needs to be something like this for quest items.
Like inventory tabs, D4 suddenly not so bad.
Itās QoL and would objectively improve the game but D2 didnāt do it so itās never going to happen.
The sooner you accept that GGG is a good dev for gameplay/itemization/endgame and worse than Ubisoft at everything else the sooner you can find inner peace and accept the game for what it is. Just look at async trade. GGG dug their heels in on that for like 13 years despite not having it being an objectively shit decision considering itās been the most popular way of trading since fucking 1888 when the first Sears catalog came out.
that will cost you 10 bucks.
Omg, Iāve been asking for this since 0.1! As a controller player, I canāt emphasize enough how incredibly frustrating moving currency around in the inventory currently is.
The currency pouch would save so much time on maps. Right now you’re constantly running back to stash or juggling stuff around just to pick up drops, and it kills the flow of actually playing the game. Even just a small dedicated section that auto-collects currency would be massive.
If your on trade league and are TPing back to hideout more than once per map you need to make your filter more strict.
I would love a ādeposit all currencyā button as well. And it could even omit the currency pouch you suggested.
No friction, no fun. This will never happen
Bring back ruck sack.
Counter-offer: let us rotate large items to better Tetris them in inventory.

just play titan…lol
FEEL THE WEIGHT EXILE!
Something something friction
We had this in poe1 map device….
I craft 10 or so maps at a time to align with the tablets & run them. Poe1 got a atlas pouch for crafting mats Iām assuming itās just a matter of time before poe2 gets it.
Yes I want a PENNY POUCH!!!
if you’re not picking up stupid crap like floor rares and 1ex uniques, you have plenty of room
but you don’t understand, i’m collecting uniques that i never intend on using
glaces at tab 11 with 7 blackgleams in it
I kinda wanna see how many I end up with at this point.
don’t u have 60 slots for currency while mapping ?
No
play titan
Smiles in Titan
Not sure why POE2 didn’t implement the small map/currency tab for map device from poe1. It’s great to roll maps and set them there waiting so you can just rapid fire them.
That goes against their āletās make the game as tedious as possibleā dev cycle
could call it the kalgurian cube
Nah that would be good for players so they wont bring that
No thanks, we don’t need to remove every little bit of friction from the game. Part of mapping is planning ahead.
This!
Itāll be a rune- Will destroy your current socket and replace it with a stash slot
Why does my stuff not auto sort into tabs? I want to deposit and go
You have to set the affinity, right click the tab at the top and check the box
does that work for gear and other stuff like jewels, rings, amulets that each go into their respective tabs? i dont see the option for any of that.
it doesnt work for generic things like ‘gear’ only items classed to events like ritual / abyss or that have an associated premium tabs (maps / gems / uniques / fragments etc)
I enjoy this game but the quantity of items, the superficially low stack limits so you but more tabs suck big time.
Until you divine something by accident
Yes PLZ …
I said this last night while playing with friends, and one of them, a PoE1 beta vet, said “Why, just use your inventory”, and it kinda pissed me off, because we already have an inventory that’s 5 rows instead of 6, and an even amount of columns, so no matter which way you stack currency when mapping you end up with weird gaps.
The pouch is the easiest fix, adding an extra row would be better imho, and at the very list, one more column.
Haha damn. I wish I could get enough currency to care š
No I want currency to take twice the Space. I also want more currency bloat in general. Just to say thereās more useless content
That will cost you two ascendancy points sir.
For PoE2 I’m a bit more in favor of someone like this since every into a map isn’t limited by times entered but by deaths
But the time consideration of going between hideout and map is a floor for grabbing stuff in terms of value
we already have this, it’s called Titan ascendancy.
No. Feel the weight.
+1-4 pocket (columns) suffix mod for the new pants slot.
There is a ascendancy for that, it IS THE ONLY THING i think titan do “better” than the other lmao
Ahh shit, here we go again.
for all the things that are not a problem, needing to sacrifice at most 4 1x1 slots is one of the most non problems of all time. Why are you carrying augs around, all you need is alch, exalt, vaal
Atleast give us a little inventory on the map device like poe 1, I hate prepping a bunch of maps and then having to take them from stash every time.
That’s actually kind if cute š
Bro I’d buy it as a micro transaction
I only wish!!!!
Feel the weight bro, or play titan š
New update: Bank of exile: You can now store all your currency with us an use our state of the art Debit card, which can be used in all of the best merchants across Wraeclast. with only a 3% interest rate on all transactions. be in control of your finances, apply for an account right now!
But then you wouldnāt feel the F R I C T I O Nā¢ļø. In all seriousness thought crafting on map mechanics is just clunky and slow. Having to juice individual boxes and essences is a level of micromanaging that holds no appeal to me. Espically with how much of endgame is map and tablet management already.
Sorry, you have to play an entire ascendancy if you want stash QOL.
no
Granted: it is a buy able add-on that costs 75 gold. Spend 10$ on 10 item slots
yeah if they wanna make rare belts useable they should have a pocketses prefix that only allows currency and small quest items
Its called Titan bro
But then who’d still need currency stash tabs!
Best thing D4 did was make each item fit into an inventory square. Holding 60 items at the same time was so nice!
10xthe inventory ggg
GGG make gold auto pick up on kill. I shouldnāt have to alter my filter for gold stack size and click on every little bit of gold seeing how integral it is to every aspect of the game now.
Yes let us buy extra storage bags same as the stash.
coming soon to an mtx shop near you
I’d pay for this
I would pay 10 bucks for that
Iām more annoyed about the amount of different currencies that drop from this game. Do we really need a different abyss currency that desecrates weapons, jewelry, and armor? Iām sure it gets better over time, and I should just leave some currency but it hurts my gamer brain to do that.
Just let our currency from the stash be used. It’s so frustrating having to make sure we have currency for Essences/Boxes in our inventories even though we have it in our stashes.
Little Pouch ? Just give us a BIG POUCH and MORE Inventory tabs , ffs, so many new diferent typs of currency, wanting to identify bases, wanting to Transmut and Augment, Runing 2 diferent sets of Tablets, its getting real tiresome so much inventory management!
By FAR the worst part about trying to engage with strongboxes. Just bizzare how this is still a mechanic you have to deal with by carrying around 5 inventory slots at all times.
Yeah, I think they should add a new item slot. Called ābagslotā. Iām fine if bags drop with different inventory slots and you need to roll it to get the perfect 10 extra item slots. And fine with it being for currency items only.
That would be such a QOL
LET US SORT OR AUTO MOVE STUFF FOR GODS SAKE
What’s wrong with the normal inventory?
My enjoyment of the game is greatly enhanced by the fact that I can only pick up a few body armours or 2h weapons before my inventory is full. It makes the game feel so much more realistic to me. Also the fact that I bump into things constantly, have momentum so I have to slow down before I can change directions, and that I get pushed around by monsters really helps immerse me in the world.
Having a currency pouch would further add to my immersion in this highly realistic world as this is clearly something that every person would have. Every time I look at my inventory and see currency spread around all over the place instead of being organized in a money pouch it takes me right out of the world and makes me realize I’m just playing a game. This really needs to be fixed.
Yep. Let the record show, I would pay real money coins for a currency pouch like pictured here, that’s a wonderful idea.
That would be the first power increase with real money. Let’s not give that suggestion ever again.
Ehh… stash tabs are pretty power increasing - you couldn’t even make tabs public for a while without them being a premium stash tab so your stuff wouldn’t be listed on the trade site until you forked over some $$ so…yeah I’m not going to say “first” here…
Nah that is entirely different. If you play without trading which is 100% viable you would not be at an disadvantage. You would in all cases be at disadvantage without bought inventory slots compared to everyone else.
This would be pay for convenience like a stash tab. Having to back to sort store and sell one less time per 3 maps is just a slight convenience upgrade that saves you a few minutes per play session. What’s actually pay for power and is already in the game is trade, premium tab required. A new player without trade could spend 30 exalts trying to craft a good weapon over and over again, and still not hit as good of rolls as can be bought for 1 exalt on the market by a premium tab owner. Don’t get me wrong I’d be happy to receive this feature for free, but I think trade is way more impactful and is already pay walled.
Letās also not act like it would be a meaningful power increase. How many people do you know that are playing Titan rn? Iām not saying it should be a paid upgrade at all, but calling it a power increase is a stretch
