Well, you can start cleaning up by sending all your unopened lockboxes to BranFlakes perhaps?

Or stop spending money on C Store pets and tribbles.Clearly they don't want you to spend money but they want you to exploit the game by creating fleets for storage space.

And yes there is nothing smart about it.

96% of everything that drops is junk.. This game has some of the most worthless loot i've ever seen in a game.

Yep, storage capacity in this game is totally out of whack relative to the content. It's a constant headache for me.

Unless I'm mistaken my inventory space was drastically reduced when F2P launched. Annoyed to be honest, I'm going to have to spend C points to up my inventory space just to be able to have pets and sample traces/commodities. Never mind the thousands of lockboxes that drop every time I do an STF.

First and foremost, my hat's off to you PatricianVetinari, for some phenomenal suggestions, throughout the course of this thread!

I'm a Silver member (F2P), but, like PatricianVetinari, I haven't been the least bit shy about shelling out cash for C-Points, in order to maximize in-game resources, especially BOFFs, DOFFs and most especially inventory enlargement. That said, I'm pretty sure that I've purchased the max number of both bank and personal inventory slots...and with all the stuff ya should be collecting in this game...it's absolutely not enough.

I've been a Vice-Admiral, level 50, for a few months now. I've got 11 current BOFFs (with 3 additional BOFF slots as yet filled and more to be added soon....likely today actually). As others have suggested, I cram as much as I can with my BOFFs. I sell stuff I don't really need or want on the Exchange (with mixed results).

Yet, there's always more stuff coming...with celebratory events, FE re-runs and all that hide and seek Lobi (which has NO business taking up an inventory slot at all, as it's supposedly in-game currency with its own store and all). Not to mention that I'm endeavoring to collect all the in-game ground weaponry, if only for the sake of trying it all out. It's there after all, what's the point of rewarding it, if ya don't have the room to try it all out??!!

Yeah, sure, James Bond's awfully fond of that Walther PPK, but don't ya think he might wanna try out other weapons if Q gave him the Q-Branch equivalent of a replicator? Hell, some of those nasties we face out along the final frontier are every bit as persistent as Oddjob ever was.

Okies, so...Bond analogies aside....I've currently got 96 Bank slots and 78 Inventory slots. From what I've gathered, both through this Forum and the STO Wiki, I'm fairly certain that I've maxxed out all my inventory storage options, right?

From what I've read...and please correct me if I'm wrong here...maybe I can get another 12 permanent Bank slots, if I shell out for a month's Gold Membership? Yet, if I did so, those additional 12 Bank slots would be it, right? No additional Personal Inventory slots, just 12 more Bank slots? Or am I missing out on another way to increase my inventory storage capacity?

Some help in clarifying all this would be greatly appreciated, despite this whole mess reminding me a whole lot of an epic joke by the late, great George Carlin, about 'stuff'.

i agree too many items not enougf space.

i hope the accout wide storage will help anf for the love of god let us move those lock box ships to other charaters like a legacy unlock one per charater i have a bug ship stuck on a fed and i aint gunna play fed kdf all the way.

Instead of looking for a place to store junk, I just sell it to the vendors. Now if crafting was worth it, and we could break down junk items into craftable material........

I sell everything all the time keeping only the useful stuff.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I'll ask this again. I've currently got 96 Bank slots and 78 Inventory slots. From what I've gathered, both through this Forum and the STO Wiki, I'm fairly certain that I've maxxed out all my inventory storage options, right?
