Soooo. I use a private base.  All my characters are in the SG. I know this does not work for more social peeps but it sol es my problems

 

the base can hold 18 storage devices. Salvage inspirations and enhancers. Each holds 100. Your choice of what 18

 

base building is free on Homecoming. I put in TP to all zones. Inspiration sellers. Enhancer sellers (standard DO SO) crafting stations mission computers llar if ice and fire mini Ouroboros merit atm etc. it is convenient

Yes this is how I used to do it back on the old game.  But as you stated, it makes it so I can't join other super groups.  I was hoping to have an account 'hideout' while still being able to join  other super groups.  Perhaps it's somthing to put in the suggestion box.  I think a safe place to dump enhancements would make me enjoy leveling 1-50 a bit more.  Cause the way I see it is that I want to buy a slew of IOs of various levels and store them .  Then LVL a toon till about 32.  Respec and dump those old enhancements for use later.  Then even better, I can have my next toon preplaned so well that as I choose powers and slots I can have the enhancements on hand in his inventory so I get fresh enhancements as I go.  That way I don't faceplant all the way to LVL 50.  I guess I'll just need to make a base till they develope an account storage system.  Or maybe they can let us join 2 Super groups....

I would think you can have your personal SG then form coalitions with groups you have friends in, use coalition chat instead of supergroup chat to check for teams.  Joining two SGs might be fun though.

The problem with this is you do not see the SG char of your coalies. Only Coal-chat.  I have longed for a multiple SG for each character forever. It is all over the source lore.  How many teams has that one guy been on. The guy with a pair of smooth criminals whise name rhymes with Pulverine?

 

of course it is probably hard coded and baked down to one SG.  Unless they could tweak Coalition chat to hear all SG chat in everyone you are allied with

Couldn't you mule a coalition solo group for just storage? And then just trade stuff between alts? It'd require a 2nd account/instance, but it would save using the marketplace or email.

Make a second account, make storage alt, an SG and an SG base. Park the storage alt near the SG portal in the zone of your choice. When in need of storage, launch the client twice and log on the storage alt in one copy and your main in the other copy. Dump the stuff on the storage alt/retrieve the stuff from the storage alt via trade (which is fairly fast). When out of space on the storage alt, shift excess stuff into SG storage.

 

Bonus points for forgetting WTF is in SG storage, finding it one day and going "holy balls I am rich".

Good thought for people who can dual box.  My computer likes to dump CoH if I alt+tab even just to check paragonwiki, it would have a seizure if I tried dual boxing lol.

 

But if anyone needs a helper to facilitate trades between alts, instead of emailing 100 times, I am on Indom and happy to help if I am online.

Another vote for the private base method, all of my alts are in that SG and I have Salvage racks, Enhancement tables and an Inspiration storage rack. The downer is the limit of 18 storage devices.

 

Email is too much of a PITA since you need a separate email for each item you want to store.  I just use it to store Inf for my various characters.  My money makers toss the extra into an email and my other characters take it as needed.

Just form a coalition with the group of folks you want to play with. Problem solved. This way, worst case when someone gets snippy, you break the coalition and still have your stuff. Best case, since there's coalition chat, you're missing out on nothing. Have your cake and eat it.
