Character Items storage options (Threads/Inf)

[kingsmidgens]

Character Items is the tab of your email which has redeemable consumables, currently you get these from superpacks for instance, it will tell you that you've got 2 of a certain type of Inspiration or 5x reward merits, etc.

On live, you could purchase 4 Threads for 1 Astral Merit in Ouroboros, and it would go into your Character Items.  You could have thousands of charges, just clicking that button on whatever character you'd like to buy threads.

IIRC you could also do a larger option for Empyreans.  They'd appear separately, and you'd have to click redeem for each bunch of 4 or 20, but it was pretty quick.

Since we can trade merits, including Transcendent Merits for bulk transfers, I think it would be nice to have the above mentioned system again, perhaps with a slight fee in addition to the merits.  I'm not sure if there's some technical limitation as to why this was removed, but I have a lot of stuff in my email from superpacks that I just haven't claimed and I don't suppose it would be much different from that.

Additionally, this system, but for storing influence would be amazing.  Pay your inf, get it in an email you can redeem on a new char, rather than manually making individual emails with however much.  I would gladly pay a percentage fee to just have a lot of 50m I could claim on a new char.



Anyway, I feel like this would be an incredible convenience since these are things you can do in a roundabout way, and in some cases, could do (on live) - and if you tack on a little Inf cost, you could consider it an inf sink to burn some out of the economy.

I might be mis-understanding what you are asking for, but you can already do the influence transfer at least, without a fee. Email some Inf to your own global account and you can claim it later with any of your characters, including a new one.
