Game Mechanics Ironman And Extra Pouch Slots

So, ironman can put stuffs in pouch, yes, I think everyone knows it at one point.

You can put up to 27 items, any kind of them, into your pouch if you are playing the ironman gamemode.
Some people might think it's too small though, especially for players that also do craftsman gamemode (Where you have to also keep your materials and ingredients for future uses, or just found a useful ingredient that you would like to keep in the future)

So, here's my suggestion, extra pouch slots for ironman players.

Sooooo, here's how it would work, you get one extra pouch slot every 10 levels, and you get your first extra slot at level 20, so at level 100, you'd have +9 (one extra line) of available pouch.

For ironman player that also pair with craftsman gamemode, they'll be giving 18 extra pouch slots due to the need to carry highest levelled gathering tools, keeping materials and ingredients for their levelling etc.

How this would benefit some people:
They'll have more space to store their items, especially for ironman+craftsman player who would not need to sacrifice several pouch slot just to be able to continue progressing into the game

How this wouldn't be abused:
Ironman players online, hence they are unable to transfer items to bank or can even act as a storage profile, so people cannot take advantage of it.

 

One of the entire points of the gamemode is that you have limited storage. Giving the player tons of room ruins that part of the challenge.
Inventory management is key for an Ironman class.

 

As someone with over 600 hours of HIC playtime in total, I think I’m qualified enough to say a thing or two here.
The entire point of the Ironman gamemode is that you have limited storage and not that you don’t need to have a single care in the world for what you pick up. I can safely say that the 55 inventory slots we get are easily more than enough, even if you’re playing HIC.
The Ironman gamemode already got one buff in 1.19 with the addition of the ingredient pouch (which basically doubled their inventory size), so it really doesn’t need another inventory buff.
Honestly, if anything it should get less inventory space considering how easy it is to manage right now, even if you’re levelling all 12 professions on an Ironman class. But the Ironman gamemode (and gamemodes as a whole really) doesn’t see much use so this would discourage players even more, so it would just be a bad change overall.
The only change that should really be made to Ironman is to add some feature that lets you take items off of Ironman classes without needing to buy a rank first and then use the pet tasks. It’s an extremely dumb mechanic that really needs to be changed.

 

Do you even HIC/HICH?

 

Do you even feedback

 

Feedback? Alright. I'll assume by your answer to my question is a "No" - Now Personally the farthest I've ever made it in any HIC run was lvl 55-60, and lvl 45~ for HICH before dying and therefore deleting.

This is the point of ALL inventory management and MMO's. It's literally so you can't Black Desert your way across the map carrying a castle, 42 guardsmen, their steel lunch boxes, a couple cows, a small radio dish, and forty thousand wands all at the same time. Not really the most fun or interactive game play. This mainly has to due with the economy/how money is generated/how easily you can gather currency (If you've ever read any of the "emerald pouch" or "emerald converter" threads

I do like the wording of "sacrifice" also. These are meant to be challenging games all about sacrifice is why are you trying to remove it?

Hardcore? You lose more items on death and lose the fancy red skull when you die the first time
Ironman? Lose access to trade and bank, yet gain pouch access for any item
Crafted? You can only use starter, quest, crafted items.
Hunted? Everyone and their grandma gonna beat your ass or at least if they can find you

The reason I asked if you played HIC/HICH is because it didn't look so in your profile yesterday. You have a prof archer and an 86 mage but no active HIC/HICH (If you have ran it in the past and then deleted because of Hardcore well rip then and sorry)

But either way, it's the whole point of the gamemode so why are you trying to make it easier?

Turlez, the OG God of the sea sorry Fish boi, as someone with more than likely more exp than both of us on this topic, literally said

Didn't really think I needed to speak where the waves had spoken, but here we are.

 

fair enough, and nah never read such threads
