Example of an item storage tab of a Vault box.

The Vault box (colloquial: Xunlai Storage Account) is the inventory repository service offered by the Xunlai Guild. The vault is shared by all characters on the account. Unlimited access to storage costs 50 for roleplaying characters and is free for PvP-only characters (once the vault is unlocked for the account).

For Guild Wars 2 on the PC, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Deleting all characters, are bank items saved?' The Vault box contains up to nine tabs (or panes) of storage space, each with 25 slots for items. As with your backpack, items that cannot be stacked will take up one slot each. You can expand your item storage as follows: Every account comes with one pane. Every campaign added to the account adds one pane. Thus, an account with all three.

You can open the box by speaking with a Xunlai Agent or directly with a Xunlai Chest. There is no access in pre-Searing Ascalon, since neither of these NPCs appear in that part of Prophecies.

Storage details[edit]

Anything that can be stored in the inventory can also be stored in the Vault box. It can be used to store three types of things:

Gw2
  • Currency: the vault can hold up to 1000.
  • Items: by default, the vault comes with 2 storage panes (50 slots) for any item that you can carry, much like a character's backpack.
  • Materials: after paying an additional 50 fee, you can store up to one stack (250 by default) of each type of rare and common crafting material.

Money[edit]

The total amount of gold and platinum currently in the Vault box is shown at the top of the window. Right below it are the buttons used to deposit and withdraw money. Any character may deposit and withdraw money.

Items[edit]

The Vault box contains up to nine tabs (or panes) of storage space, each with 25 slots for items. As with your backpack, items that cannot be stacked will take up one slot each.

You can expand your item storage as follows:

  • Every account comes with one pane. Every campaign added to the account adds one pane. Thus, an account with all three campaigns will have four panes.
  • You can purchase up to nine additional panes through the Guild Wars Online Store.
  • As part of the Fourth Year Anniversary Celebration, players were able to add a ninth slot for free. This limited offer is no longer available to new or veteran players (see Notes for additional details).

Materials[edit]

Material storage is an optional in-game upgrade to the Vault box; each PvE character must pay the 50 fee to be able to use it. As noted above, the material pane holds up to 250 of each type of crafting material; any surplus will take up a separate slot in the ordinary storage (or the character's inventory).

As with ordinary storage, PvP characters do not have to pay a fee, but cannot gain access unless that tab is unlocked by a PvE character.

Material storage can be expanded up to a maximum of 2500 of each type by purchasing Xunlai Material Storage Expansions in the Guild Wars Online Store.

Notes[edit]

  • Moving away from the Xunlai Chest while the Vault box window is open does not prevent you from using it.
  • Trial accounts are not allowed to purchase the material pane upgrade.
  • There is a ninth pane that is free and does not count towards the eight basic slots (four from campaigns and four through microtransactions). This tab's icon is a gift box and is always located after the last standard tab (i.e. those marked with a roman numeral). Before the April 22, 2015 (Tenth Year Anniversary Celebration) update, if you move your cursor over the icon, the pop-up text would display '4th Anniversary Storage'. After that update, the pop-up text will simply display 'Anniversary Storage'.
    • This ninth pane was first offered during the Fourth Year Anniversary Celebration. This promotional offer ran from April 23 through June 30, 2009 (although it was originally set to expire on May 31).
    • The Xunlai Anniversary Storage Voucher introduced in the Tenth Year Anniversary Celebration can also be used to unlock that ninth pane.
Anomaly.Although the promotional tab is always the last storage pane, the items stored on that slot will not follow as you add new panes. Instead, they are bound to their physical location, e.g. if you have five panes and purchase a sixth, the items will remain on pane #5, even though they were on the promotional pane, which has become pane #6.
Anomaly.Armor in storage will always appear to be for the gender of the current viewer — not for the gender of the character the equipment was customized for.

Trivia[edit]

  • There was a Guild Vault planned after the release of Factions but never implemented due to technical reasons.
  • The July 13, 2006 update introduced the material pane upgrade, reducing the need for mule characters. It was originally made available only to accounts with access to Guild Wars Factions, but after Guild Wars Nightfall was released, all accounts were able to access this upgrade. When the material pane upgrade was first released, it was purchasable from a Xunlai Representative, but they have since been removed from the game.
  • Prior to the April 5, 2007 update, there was only one item storage tab available for the Vault box.
  • Prior to the Fourth Anniversary Update on April 23, 2009, players could only have four panes of storage.
  • The February 5, 2019 update introduced the material storage expansions and increased the number of item slots per storage tab from 20 to 25.

Contained in[edit]

  • Doomsday Preparation Pack
  • Tinker's Package

Other[edit]

  • One slot comes bundled with Heart of Thorns and another with Path of Fire. These slots are initially filled with a Level-80 Boost. Consuming the boost will free up the slots.
  • If you receive Heart of Thorns free with Path of Fire, you do not get the shared inventory slot or the level 80 boost from Heart of Thorns, meaning you only get one boost and one slot, despite owning both expansions.

Notes[edit]

  • The shared slots can be moved either above all regular bag slots, or below them. This is done by dragging the slot, much like you would with a bag.
  • The slot is not a bag slot, and does not allow additional bags to be equipped.
  • Vendors and the Trading Post will ignore items in these slots, as will 'Deposit all Materials'.
  • Items that soulbind or are already soulbound cannot be placed here.
    • The slots can hold all other items, making it especially useful for salvage kits, gathering tools, gizmos, non-wallet keys, or consumables you want an easy access to on multiple characters across your account, such as the Copper-Fed Salvage-o-Matic, Infinite Mist Omnipotion , Mistlock Sanctuary Passkey, Armistice Bastion Pass, Royal Terrace Pass, Bank Access Expresses, or Mystic Forge Conduits.
    • If a shared slot fills up with an item (ex. Unidentified Gear) and you have an empty shared slot, any additional items of the same type that enter your inventory will fill that additional shared slot before overflowing into your regular bags.
  • Currently, an account can have a maximum of 24 shared slots:
    • 22 shared slots can be purchased from the Gem Store.
    • 1 slot is acquired by owning Heart of Thorns.
    • 1 slot is acquired by owning Path of Fire.
  • The packs of 3/5 shared slots are delivered as 3 or 5 single-slot unlocks that can be consumed individually.

Trivia[edit]

  • Shared Inventory Slots were introduced on January 12, 2016 in the Gem Store, with a limit of 5 slots per account.
  • The Spring 2016 Quarterly Update on April 19, 2016 added a free slot to accounts with Heart of Thorns unlocked, and raised the limit of purchasable slots to 10.
  • The limit for purchasable slots was further increased to 13 on July 12, 2016 [1], and to 16 on January 10, 2017.[2].
  • The August 01, 2017 update added a second free slot to accounts with Path of Fire unlocked, bringing the total available limit to 16 purchasable slots plus 2 free slots.
  • With the release of Path of Fire, the limit was once again raised by 3 purchasable slots, bringing the total available limit to 19 purchasable slots plus up to 2 free slots. [3]
  • On September 18, 2018, the limit was raised by 3 purchasable slots, to 22.[4]
