So the time has come that I have started to get multiple item sets and am running out of room in my bank for old blue and green items, I was wondering what most experienced players do with old items such as:

or

Just items in general that you no longer use, what do you do with them?

...and what about event items like

Are you a pack a rat or a "I need bank space, vendored" person?

Do you have a bank character?

I shard everything that I havent equipped in the past 4 weeks.

I keep a bag setup for epics that are going to get trashed and when I fill that up I will respec to enchanting disenchant them and then get herbalism back. Other than that i typically vendor everything. I find if you arent going to use it ever again why keep it? EF and TS is tricky due to resistances but luckily I dont have alot of that to get rid of yet. Those trinkets were fine at one time but get rid of them. I have kept my fire sapta for some nostalgic reason(I thought it was going to be used for something else originally) but for the most part I try to keep the bag space open from trash since bag space is more valuable then just hanging onto some crap cause I have had it forever.

Lol, I thought you were talking about epics when I read the subject line...why havn't you vendored that crap yet? =P

"They're Dragon Kill Points; not Dragon Feed Points"

Now the first two, I can't see being useful in any encounter i've experienced.

The third you should be wearing ALL THE TIME. Even on Ragnaros. How else will you toast your marshmellows on a knockback?

What's in your bank that's so damn important? Over 100 days played has netted me alot of crap, but you can mail most of it off. Don't vendor epic items (unless it's really crap) or with a certain novelty, but stuff like those first 2 trinkets should be vendored asap.

At any given time, I keep around 6 gimmick pieces of gear on me, and in my bank I have around 10 slots that are there for gimmick or sentimental pieces. I still end up with 10-20 free spots in my inventory and bank because I make use of my bank alt, and my professions don't require a whole bunch of random crap.

My honey, however, is a miner, engineer, shaman, AND a packrat :socar:. She hasn't had more than 5 free slots since I got traveler's backpacks for both our characters at level 35.

So I'm pretty ruthless about space, but I'll keep some "just for fun" stuff around, and instead pitch the marginal "specialist" pieces. For example I ditched all my +spirit (with nothing else) gear and kept my tuxedo.

I used to save every single trinket I ever got, but eventually I got to a point where it was extremely impractical. So I vendored everything other than a couple of trinkets. As for seasonal stuff, often I will keep it (for instance I still have Halloween wands lying around), but then I find myself just having it sit there in the bank and never using it (this happened with my 1 remaining Mechanical Yeti charge, for instance). For stuff that's seasonal and not BoP, I just send it off to an alt.

Vendor all that crap, the 1 copper you will receive from the shoulders will be worth it.

I have my Lieutenant's Insignia. Neeru Fireblade said some day he'd have further instructions for me. :(

:headinhands:

 

• Wodin

I also hold the faith.

I also have my complete sets of Nightslayer and Bloodfang squirreled away, along with every 55+ quest reward(Argent Avenger ahoy!), the first Heartseeker, Mongoose Boots, and Shifting Cloak on the server, and every epic item I've ever owned. I even still have my first skinning knife from when I was just a newbie. I may have a slight problem with inventory space :)

 

◊ Shalas

I carried http://www.thottbot.com/?i=1389 around with me until level 47.

 

kulz

I know a lot of people that still have http://www.thottbot.com/?i=4832 in their bank.

 

• Wodin

Heh. Speaking of carrying things around, anyone remember the rumor that a Rabbit's Foot in your bag meant you had a higher percentage chance of epics? I had one of those 1-60. :/

 

Flubber

I forgot to mention, I still have my 3 Yeti's, the M73 Frag Grenades from that stupid goblin quest in Azshara, that morrowgrain maker box thingy, and the zergling from the collector's set.

 

Wibble

That's ingenious.

 

Elendril

i have my first linen bag.

 

Gauss

That's not always the best idea. I just recently started using eye of the beast again after ditching briarwood reed because 2% crit finally became worth more than 29 spell damage to me on my primary spell.

Edit: Perhaps you were being sarcastic though seeing your second post :p

Noobing it up on Mal'Ganis since '06

I'll need to check my bank later, but I have an assortment of stuff that even I can admit is worthless. If it's unique and BoP and not possible to replace, I have a tough time getting rid of it.

I have this in my bank. I don't think any more needs to be said.

 

springwheat

After having to go back to Maraudon to farm NR gear for AQ, I have a hard time getting rid of any old gear unless I have a replacement/upgrade for the utility it provided.

 

novasphere

I have a bank character which holds literally everything that's not soulbound that my main collects. I'm also both a packrat/vendorer in ways; I keep some pretty silly stuff around these days, like an entire bank slot filled with old trinkets (Arena Grand Master for example), a near-full slot of pets (Tranquil Yeti, Peddlefeet, etc; never got the Spirit of Summer :( ), a full bank slot and then some of gimmick gear like Lovely Purple Dress, my full Dreadmist set, and all sorts of other crap. It could be said that roughly 10% of the contents in my bank are actually useful and the rest is pure fluff.

 

Cmpnd

Yeah, I have a problem with inventory space too. I still have all 3 charges of Mechanical Yeti from well over a year ago, Barov Peasant Caller, Chained Essence of Eranikus, and I even still have my Light of Elune from probably a year and a half ago (the quest in Ashenvale that rewards you with an item that grants immunity for 10 seconds).

 

Zalera

I still have a Luffa in my bank. Up until a few weeks ago I had The Story of Morgan Ladimore still in there, from level 30 or so :/ I think I need help.

 

Flubber

Lol...now that I think about it. I have a Sawbones Shirt and a Rich Purple Silk shirt on my itemrack. When I equip my BQAS, rich purple comes out. When I equip Malistar's and my Jin'do's, out comes Sawbones.

I just kinda like having the red shirt matching the shield, and the purple shirt matching the staff.

What about those stupid argent dawn scrolls are those worth keeping? The ones that they send in the mail.
