Why do people carry so much gear? When the season is over, I moved my stuff over, compared the stats between duplicates, and salvaged the rest. I notice that same trend in PoE, where people move everything to their stash just because, with items they will never use. Hello 20x rings of garbage, instead of selling you, I'll just stick you in my stash to never get moved again!
It's more of a like: ''Ah! I saw a build that uses <insert random item> ! I'll try it out !!'' (hoards support items for the build, never uses them([like a cold archon wiz that I tried :D])
I can understand that, and I certainly hold on to gear for that same very reason (minus Invokers - I get so pissed off when that gear drops). I was watching Quinn69 stream last night, and in his bank tab, he had at least 8 or 9 Sunwuko amulets. I see that as having absolutely no value to hold onto that many, like old people holding onto thousands of newpapers in their garage/basement/attic.
In fact, the only duplicates I have in my bank are the 2 lvl 60 IK maces, pre and post item changes where blue weapons were better than it.
@Detruncate - Well written post, I agree with your thoughts as well. I keep almost everything for every class just in case a major change comes , like what we will see soon, but I have 1.5 tabs of free space afterwards. I don't know, maybe I'm just doing it wrong and should have a bank filled to the brim as well lol.
