We haven't learned much about storage in the game, but i can only assume they will bring back the storage vault in all towns and cities like in GW1. I think it would be great to have a place to store items that you will keep for a later date or have no use for right now, but what i think would be better than a storage vault is having a section of your home instance where you can place certain items in...for example, if you have some crafting materials there will be a bin to hold all of these just like the section of the storage vault in GW1. Let's also say you have a sword that you can't use until level 50 because you went with a friend to help him in a dungeon and you are level 29, you can place that on the wall anywhere you'd like and it will display there until you come back and pick it up at level 50 to wear it, or you can place a weapon rack in this section of the home instance and place your weapon inside of the weapon rack which will than display in the rack. I played EQ2 for so long only because of the house, it was infinitely customizable because of the items that you could place inside them, and likewise the guild wars 2 home instance will infinitely customizable by the NPC's and trophies that are placed in there, but if you can't move the trophies to a certain spot that you want or tell the NPC's where to sell their goods so that you can place them all together instead of spread out in your home instance..it will defeat the purpose of the home instance....ya everyone will have different vendors but they'll all have them in the same locations, all have the trophies displaying on the same spot...but who knows they may already have something like this in their game, it would be wonderful if you could buy furniture for your house or could make it like in EQ2, which i did. If there was a system like this i know me and many other players would spend hours crafting furniture,and hunting for that awesome trophy that fits you in the display case that you made specifically for the trophy.

It would be neat if you could have an archetict for your home instance who you could pay to build certain things for your characters home. For example, the archetict will have a list of things you can build in a few certain locations of the home instance, there could be a stable, a bar, a building for mini-games, a trophy hall, a garden, a market area for the vendors and other buildings that the Devs come up with, and each one has the basic look to it, but you can customize the wood used, or the stone used to build it, which cost different prices.

Also in the home instance, i think it would be equally as cool to have your minipets, or other pets roaming around in the house or area of the home instance..for example, if you were a ranger and you wanted to show off your cool pet you charmed the other week, you could build a stable and have the pet sit in the stable or wander throughout your home instance doing what he pleases until you want to come pick him up

I know some of these may seem like too much work for such a little piece of the game, but the Devs wanted to make this game all about your character and if you can't have a customizable home instance which you made completely by yourself instead of the game randomly filling it with NPCs and trophies put into certain places which dont appeal to you, than it seems pointless and almost defeating the purpose of the home instance

i would love to hear your thoughts on this suggestion
