Muli

Muli are mounts that assist in the transport of goods, resources, and gatherables to increase a player's carrying capacity.^[2] Mules transport goods on a much smaller scale than the caravan system.^[3]

If a player dies there will be a period of time before their mule despawns. Other players must kill the mule to be able to loot it.^[4]

If a player's mule dies its corpse will contain the same percentage of lootable items as the player (based on their flagging status).^[4]^[5]

Many species of mules will be breedable.^[6]

There will be smaller mules.^[7]

Resource bag with spatial ("Tetris" style) slots.^[9]^[10]

Inventory for A2 will exist in two categories, spatial and non-spatial. The spatial inventory system will only exist for materials and gatherables. The non-spatial system will be the normal single slot inventory that is used for all completed items IE gear, consumables etc.. The spatial system is intended to provide limitation and progression when everything in the open world is gatherable, requiring players to strategize which things they choose to gather or not. These spatial inventories will be shaped in various ways that make the bag types more conducive for certain types of gatherables allowing players to specialize their capacity. Auto sort is a feature^[9] – Steven Sharif

Personal inventory limits^[11]^[12] are tied to a backpack.^[13] Material and gatherable items are subject to quantity rather than weight limits.^[14] Caravan and Muli are intended to be the primary mode of transportation of goods beyond these limits.^[15]^[16]

Muli can carry roughly 10 times more than backpacks. Caravans can carry roughly 10 times more than mules.^[17]

Caravan will have carrying capacity limits and customizable stats, such as defensive points, speed and number of hired NPC guards.^[18]
- In addition to expanded inventory capacity, caravans also provide ancillary benefits relating to successfully completing trade routes and other quests.^[19]
- Items transported by caravan must be stored in crates.^[20]

In my opinion, and this is of course subjective, but weight management is not a compelling mechanic for players to have to deal with in an MMO setting.^[14] – Steven Sharif

Inventario capacity has quantity (stacking) limits based on the type of item.^[14]^[15] For example: The stacking limit of potions might be one hundred. The stacking limit of food items might be 999 or 1000.^[15]

A player's inventory has sections for different types of items.^[21] Quest items for example will not fill a player's regular inventory capacity.^[19]
- Materials and resource bags have spatial ("Tetris" style) slots for items with different shapes and sizes.^[9]^[22]^[23]^[10]
- The spatial inventory system is intended to mitigate the potential for players to diminish land management scores by stripping resources from particular zones.^[24]

There will be a healthy number of slots for gear in a player's inventory.^[25]
- Completed item inventory slots are not space constrained (by the tetris system).^[22]
- Completed items, such as gear are also not subject to weight limits.^[25]
- Gear loadouts can be swapped using a hotkey when out of combat.^[25]^[26]^[27]

Inventory is split into two separate management systems. The first is your non-material, non-gatherable slots. Those are your standard single slot, not-space-constrained system that's a standard inventory: you just have a single slot, and you can pull completed items and/or consumables and quest items or whatever into that slot. And then, when you're talking about materials, specifically processed goods and gatherables: those exist within the Tetris type uh inventory system.^[22] – Steven Sharif

Inventory capacity will be relatively limited for new characters.^[19]
- Additional capacity may be increased by obtaining higher quality backpacks from crafters.^[22]^[14]

We want to have very unique progression when it comes to the construction of resource bags; and those resource bags will have certain benefits, like increasing stack size count of particular types of resources; or of having a additional delay time necessary to interface with with your corpse, should a player try to take the resources you might have dropped in PvP; or having passive benefits and unique structures of spacing that makes it more a better bag for wood gathering because woods are three-by-one; or a better bag for mining because mining is always two-by-two. The idea is to make your intent as a gatherer when you go out into the wild specific right not just that you're going out into the wild and gathering everything you can because it's there; and that's what we don't have like a labor system that limits it. We have a space constraint system so when you leave your node and you go out into the wild you need to be conscientious of what you're choosing to interact with and take resources for, because you have a limited space constraint to that degree.^[22] – Steven Sharif

Players will have the ability to search for items they have stored in various locations (such as personal storage and node warehouses).^[28]

We want you to know where the things are; and then the meaningful aspect of that thing is traveling to those locations to access some of those things, particularly as it relates to materials and raw gatherables.^[28] – Steven Sharif
