Keep your next objective before clearing space
Organize your bank around your next quest or recipe: move or tag its required items before selling, then buy an eligible bank-capacity upgrade from the Shop. Demo skill upgrades provide +20 slots at level 20 for 5,000 GP or +25 slots at level 50 for 25,000 GP, with each individual purchase limited to 1.
For Demo 0.11.4, plan around the available upgrades rather than the later +30 Bank Slots tier, which is locked in the Demo. Start by deciding what you need to retain; an expensive ingredient or useful quest item should not become a sale candidate simply because you need room.
Use tabs, tags and sorting to review your items
The bank provides tabs, item tagging, sorting and item-management controls. Use tabs to group resources around their purpose, such as your next quest, an upcoming crafting batch or equipment you intend to keep. Choose groupings you will recognize when you return to the bank after training.
Tag scarce ingredients as a reminder to review them before a sale. Use sorting to inspect your holdings, then check the item names and quantities in your sale selection. Make the final decision from what your next objective needs rather than treating everything outside your preferred tab as surplus.
The announced bank-management features also include placeholders, keyboard shortcuts and Bank Tab names. Whatever layout you prefer, keep a separate mental or written list of resources you intend to retain. Review that list before using bulk-selling controls.
Organize the bank before selling
- Read your next quest's objectives to establish which items belong on your keep list. Stone Arrows for Pointy Preparation and Copper Swords for Fishin' for Trouble are examples of supplies that should stay out of an unrelated cleanup sale.
- Inspect your next recipe's ingredients to identify production supplies worth retaining. Include its intermediate materials in your planning so that selling a finished-looking component does not send you back to gathering.
- Move the resources you intend to keep into a dedicated bank tab. Grouping them around the next objective makes your intended sale candidates easier to review separately.
- Tag scarce ingredients you want to retain. This gives you a reminder to reconsider them when reviewing the items selected for sale.
- Compare your sale selection with the keep list before accepting the sale. Exclude quest supplies and planned recipe inputs, even when selling them would immediately fund another purchase.
- Purchase an eligible bank-capacity upgrade when keeping your planned supplies still leaves you short of room. Use the corresponding skill requirement and available GP to choose your next expansion.
Compare Demo bank-slot upgrades
Skill-linked bank expansions are separate purchases. Check the listings associated with skills you already train before changing your route solely for storage. Each individual upgrade has its own purchase limit, so you cannot repeatedly buy the same listing.
| Upgrade | Requirements, cost and limit |
|---|---|
| +20 Bank Slots | Corresponding skill level 20; 5,000 GP; purchase limit 1 for each skill-specific listing. |
| +25 Bank Slots | Corresponding skill level 50; 25,000 GP; purchase limit 1 for each skill-specific listing. |
| +30 Bank Slots | Locked in the Demo; do not include this tier in your available storage budget. |
Skill-specific listings include Beastcrafting, Cooking, Crafting, Farming, Firemaking, Fishing, Fletching, Hunting, Mining, Ranching, Runecrafting, Smithing and Thieving, alongside Woodcutting. Look for the listing matching the skill you have trained.
Avoid selling supplies that block quests
Selling quest supplies can earn GP while delaying the objective you were preparing to complete. Before selling Stone Arrows or Copper Swords, check Pointy Preparation or Fishin' for Trouble respectively. Use the exact turn-in quantity shown by your quest when deciding what is surplus.
Keep Hobforge Gloves in mind when preparing for Rocky Rumble. Sulfur Protection Gloves require Hobforge Gloves and 4 Magic Cowhide, and crafting the recipe consumes the gloves. Reserve the ingredients before selling equipment you might otherwise consider spare.
Avoid burying every Bone simply to tidy the bank if you have a production use planned. Bone also has uses in Firemaking and Beastcrafting, including Brazier 2, Bone Casing and Crushed Bone. Decide which use serves your next objective before disposing of the stack.
Check ingredients when crafting stops
Artisan crafting requires the full item and currency cost to be available at each step; otherwise, crafting stops. After a cleanup sale or bank upgrade, check the selected recipe's inputs and any currency cost before starting another batch. More storage does not replace missing ingredients.
Check your crafting stop condition as well. Recipe Creations counts crafts, while Products Gained, Products Owned and the ingredient options count items. Choose the setting that matches your goal rather than assuming a product target means the same thing as a craft target.
- Check the next quest's exact requested quantity before treating any of its supplies as surplus.
- Review scarce ingredients and intermediate components against the recipe you intend to make next.
- Inspect the selected sale items after organizing the bank, even when you have already moved or tagged resources.
- Leave enough currency for your planned crafting costs when choosing whether to purchase more storage.
