The Ingredient Stash

With the 1.8 Update crafting, ingredients and materials have been added to the game. Since you should keep most of the ingredients you find to craft items with them, thereby increasing the amount of xp you get per crafted item by quite a bit your bank gets filled up quite easily and trying to find the right ingredients to craft an item or searching through pages of ingredients to find the right ones for leveling up your crafting levels is tedious and annoying. However it doesn't have to be:

The Ingredient Stash would be a storage unit besides the ender chest that only stores ingedients. It should be able to store at least one of each ingredient in game and the amount per ingredient you can store could be increased similarly to the way you can add pages to your bank. However per enlargement of your stash the added amount of lower star ingredients you are able to hold in your stash should be higher than the amount of higher star ingredients because you would want to use the lower star ones for lveling your crafting skills, therefore needing more of them. It could be searched similarly to the marketplace, filtering by profession, level and identification thereby making the crafting process a lot easier. It could be located in the bank, at the blacksmith or in an extra building however then the rebuilding of some towns would have to be done.

I think that the added bank pages were intendet to solve the problems that were mentioned at the beginning (besides taking emeralds out of the ecomomy) however they aren't doing a great job at that for me (the first part, not the one with the emeralds). If you have similar problems then please support this suggestion by making it more popular and leaving feedback and ideas.

Don't we already have a massive bank to store items in? You can definitely just use one or two bank pages for ingredients and materials. I really doubt we need even more space.

 

for some reason i get a feeling that we wont use up 10 new bank pages for raw minerals alone

 

The point is that the bank is too unorganized with all the new items that have been added. Better ways to search/navigate through the bank would already be a big improvement.

 

You know that if someone spams the mineral bomb, it will take a lot of of space

that (and more) is what I've collected only 8 days into the update and my highest level profession is only lvl 60.

 

You're probably not going to use most of that stuff. You can always throw away the bad ingredients.

 

but i use those for leveling my crafting skills
