Some times it benefits to be on a free shard with custom stuff. We have a sewing chest that you carry the gump from it with you so you never have to recall. We also have crystals that store resources like ingots, wood, reagents, imbuing agents, stuff for planting, scrolls, and marble. Haazen has built quite a few things for us that makes the game fun.
I have been trying to figure out how to get some of the crafting scripts to work with the crystals. You can craft using the resources in the crystal without having to have them in your pack. It will dispense the amount you need based on what you are crafting calls for. For example: If you smith something that takes 25 ingots, it will put 25 ingots in your bag.
Very nice little tool. It also will store all your looted stuff that goes in it with one click. Also no need to carry reagents with you taking up valuable bag space and weight. They can be used strait from the crystal. Though I no longer need that as I am 100% LRC. Still makes some good money on resale.
