Questaholic - January 2018

This bank is fairly condensed, which earns it some merit, but has a few flaws that are most certainly NOT clean. For starters, pets do not belong in banks, each and every pet in your second tab should be grown and put into the menagerie of your POH. The limit has been dramatically increased from its original form, so there's no excuse! Any aura not regularly used does not need to be held in your bank. If you ARE using it regularly, then fine. Likewise, any and all unused skilling outfits(shark, golem, divination, etc.) can be stored with Diango free of charge. I see multiple within your sixth tab primarily, and unless you're using them they're just pointlessly taking up space.

All of this leads to my biggest gripe: it may be listed as nice, but there doesn't appear to be much organization whatsoever. Things are put into separate tabs, but I can't find any sort of theme for each tab. You have auras spread across four different tabs, your armor seems to be all over the place, the only thing that seems to have a definitive, maintaned theme is your eight tab, which appears to be Invention. There might be ideas of tab themes, but it looks to me like they were eventually ignored, and things were scattered about. If you were in dire trouble and needed me to fetch something from your bank for you, I wouldn't have any idea of where to look.

There seems to be a lot of stuff in this bank, where there doesn't need to be as much. For starters, this is more a minor one, but you appear to have potions scattered about and disorganized in both your first and third tabs. And in the third tab they're all strewen about, no clear organized system. I feel like specific potions would be a lot harder to find like this. You have a lot of seeds, and a lot of potted plants. If you're intending to use all these, fantastic. If not, they do little more than take up space and make the things you DO want to use harder to find. I think your third tab, specifically, could benefit form just a little bit of reorganization, put the similar items together. Jumping back to the first tab, it seems to be more of a miscellaneous tab, which is fine, but not everything in there seems entirely necesary to keep. The crystal keys should either be used or sold, and you even have a random tooth half that could easily be combined with a loop half, thus freeing up an extra space. You've also got a crystal teleport seed in here, but also in a later tab. Like items should always go together! I think this first tab could stab to be purged and have most of items items moved to other more themed tabs.

Your second tab is mostly comprised of staffs, runs, and rune pouches. Ok. The armor seems out of place, even if it is otherwise a magic tab, but if it's a system of "Magic tab", "Ranged tab", "Melee tab", I'd allow it. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be. Also, you have three auras in your infinity tab, and then four in this one in no particular order. Unused auras just take up space, and unless they're themed to a specific skill, should be kept together so the bank looks cleaner and they're easier to find. Also evaluate if you need all of the staffs and outfits. Sometimes they're unnecessary, and killing outfits can and should be stored with Diango unless they're in active use. Your fourth tab is clearly summoning with a mix of divination and teleportation items, and for the most part seems fine to me. You could maybe cut down on some of the things you're not using, sell them off to clear up some bank space, but for the MOST part this tab seems organized and it's clear what it's meant to be. With a little bit of moving things around, finding what you're looking for would be a piece of cake. Your fifth tab, though, is intimidating to look at. Most of the space looks like it's just different tiers of skilling resources; logs, planks, ores, etc. I'm a broken record but unless you actively intend to use these items, there's no reason to keep them, and they only serve the purpose of filling up your bank. The solo dragonhides don't seem necessary, nor do the plethora of different amulets, rings, and bracelets. I feel like you could easily clear out half of this bank tab, and it would be all the cleaner for it. Also not entirely sure why there's random weapon/weapon bits scattered about.

Now, I assume this is your combat tab. Yet more uncondensed auras, but combat auras in their own tab I can accept more easily than others. You have a LOT of bolts/arrows that I don't think you need, though, and again just take up space. Only keep what you need, if you're never using some of these things then why bother keeping them? If you "might" need them in the future, I am of the opinion that you can grab them in the future. Your seventh tab, similarly, seems to have a lot of different weapons(and yet more auras) that aren't entirely needed. Anything you're not using, or can easily be reobtained, can go. I honestly cannot tell what your eighth tab is supposed to be, it seems like assorted "other" outfits and... stuff. Also from this picture it looks like there's noe random empty space in the middle right. This isn't anything against your bank, I'm just baffled! A lot of this stuff can either be stored in a POH, with Diango, gotten rid of or condensed into a different tab. Same with your final tab, it seems like a lot of this could be condensed into a skilling tab(are those seeds outside your seeds tab?), but some of it(like Invention stuff) I can understand. Also, still another aura. Overall I see good things, but there's definitely a lot of clutter surrounding it.

The first thing that immediately stick out to me with this bank is that there are a LOT of auras. Do you use all of these? Because if not, they can all be harmlessly stored in the loyalty shop. They may need to recharge when you reclaim them, but I cannot imagine you use every single one of these auras regularly? Looking past that, I'm struggling to find solid maintained tab themes. As is the case with most banks I've looked at, it starts with a theme and then devolves from there. Your fourth tab, with the auras, seems relatively fine, I can't fault you for combining runs and teleport items. The auras don't entirely make sense to me, but I'll overlook that because they can be harder to place. But moving away from that, your third tab appears to be for weapons. Forgive me for not recognizing everything in here, but why do you have so many duplicate items? Unless there's a really, really good reason to keep them, toss 'em. Sell them if you can, but there is rarely any reason to keep multiples of the same item, ESPECIALLY if they don't stack! You're sacrificing bank space, and making it far less tidy in the process. Also if this IS a weapons tab, why are there potions? And I'm not even entirely sure what most of them items on the bottom row are. Also that Vexilum should be on your person, ready to plant at a moments notice! (;D)

Your second tab looks to be random outfits pieces and amulets? It looks a bit cluttered to me, anything in here that can be stored with an NPC(such as Diango), or destroyed and reclaimed later should be gotten rid of unless you actively use it. I know that can be difficult with RNG pieces such as that Black Ibis top, but surely you don't actually need that many different platelegs? Or random boots? Some of those amulets look useful, but I'm not sure all of them are doing much more than taking up space. Moving up again, your infinity tab can probably just be collapsed into something else. No real complaint about it, it just seems a little random. Now I'll work my way back up from the bottom: your ninth tab appears to be a random assortment of items, which makes banks feel more cluttered. The tab above it also feels the same way, I can't exactly figure out what the theme of it is supposed to be. They both feel like randomly tossed around items. Tab seven starts out as a potions and summoning tab, which is all fine until I notice there are potions scattered around other tabs. Are they for different purposes? It seems like it'd be easier to condense it all, and then organize it within a single tab. And then once we get past the potions and summoning items we have food, fine, and... armor? I guess that's fine, you don't seem to have any other dedicated main armor tab, but when you combine too many different functions into a single tab it starts to get messy, and things start to become harder to find.

Tab five(skipping six for the moment) seems like books, scrolls, some miscellaneous stuff, and pets? No pet should be forced to endure living in a bank, and should all be put into your menagerie, which should have more than enough space after the cap increases in recent years. That poor pig, bird, cat, troll, monkey, iguana, fish, etc. Also, the god/raven eggs are completely unnecessary unless you intend to hatch one of each OR use them as summoning ingredients. If not, they're taking up space. The books on the top two rows, meanwhile, can mostly be ditched, as almost all books are stored in your POH bookcase once you receive them. Something like the prayer book or captain's log are fine, but for the most part they seem unnecessary for a clean bank. And then there was the sixth tab. The length of it is intimidating, but it seems like it's a generic skilling tab. The number of things in here alone makes it hard to find anything specific, which seriously hurts its status as a clean bank. Unused skilling outfits should be stored with Diango, not in your bank, of which I see at least four different sets, at a glance. There's summoning pouches strewn about, yet you've got another tab with summoning pouches. In general I think this tab could benefit from a once-through, removing everything not actively being used, or you know you won't be using for some time, in order to increase your bank space and tidy everything up. Overall, I feel like things could be shuffled around a bit to better pair them with similar items, overall increasing the ease of access and tidiness of the bank.

The VERY first thing I see? Your cash stack taking up a bank space. That already makes me nervous because the money pouch is completely safe, so keeping money in your bank is just a waste of space. Maybe you're trying to keep it seperate for some reason, but regardless of any explanation it still takes away from a neat and organized bank. As I have mentioned before, any and all skilling outfits, holiday items, etc. should be stored with Diango unless you actively intend to use them. If not, it's just taking up space, which you already appear to be crucially lacking.

I tink I can see the ideas of tab themes, but you don't really seem to maintain them. Are those seeds in your infinity tab? Why aren't they in tab eight? Why do you have all of those older items in your second tab? Maybe a few of them are for clue scrolls, but is there really any need for multiple elemental shields, random amulets/rings, and dragon equipment? Likewise, that Warpriest of Saradomin should probably go in your POH. I guess I can see tab three as a fletching tab/woodworking tab, until you randomly have sets of armor in there? That makes 0 sense for an organized bank. Tab 4... okay, Magic/teleportation/Runecrafting gear. I am of the opinion that the armor should have its own dedicated tab, and the invention stuff seems misplaced, but I'll allow it. At first glance your next two tabs look like summoning and food tabs respectively, but quickly devolve into... less comprehensible. I can appreciate a "gathering" tab, but I'm really not getting it. Unless you have an immediate plan for all these rings, amulets, ores, gems, and secondaries, they can be gotten rid of or put into the appropriate Dungeoneering bag. I'm sorry, but I don't think you need to be keeping lobsters or swordfish anymore, they're taking up space!

Pre-existing knowledge tells me that your herblore and farming tabs make sense, and I imagine you have bigger goals for each of them(or, at least, farming), so they make sense for someone with long term plans. But I'd be lying if I said they weren't hard for me to look at. Shave off any excess 1/2 dose potions, sell any potions/seeds/herbs you don't actually intend to use, and I'm fairly certain pestal and mortars are now stored on your tool belt. Don't need 'em. Also I'm fairly certain that one random chocolate bar doesn't have any business hanging out with the seeds. Which brings us to your last tab, which looks to me like a dump tab. Never have a dump tab. I am of the opinion that a lot of your items, especially in this tab, are unnecessary and could be purged, and then reorganized into other tabs to condense space and look more efficient. The various random hats and boots are either easy to reobtain if they're needed, or can be stored with NPCs or in your house.

For the most part, you have very solid tabs, I can easily tell what each of them are supposed to be except for maybe the infinity tab, but I tend to use that as an "assorted/misc." tab as well, so for the most part it seems fine to me. You've certainly got a variety of different armors in your PvM tab, more than I would expect someone to use, but I cannot deny that it's well organized and easy to pull out exactly what you're looking for. I'm always going to be uncomfortable with potentially unused auras, but I see what you're doing with them. It comes at the cost of bank space, though. No qualms whatsoever with your third or fourth tabs, they look very neat and condensed, only containing what they need to. I like them, though personally I don't tend to hang on to secondaries I don't intend to use in the immediate future. It's your fifth tab that stops me up a little bit. I understand the logic of holding on to different potion doses for storage, but damn does it take up a lot of space. I am incredibly biased AGAINST doing this, so while it does look very well organised, it's a huge banking sin in my book. Alaways combine all potions into the same dosage, and only keep lesser doses if you're actually using the potions regularly. If they're just sitting there, there's no reason for them to waste your bank space.

Your sixth tab makes sense, but I always get a little uneasy with so many stacks of 1 seed. It takes up space, and unless you intend to use them, it's really for nothing. If you expect to maybe gain more of those seeds in the future, they can always be stacked back into the bank until you use them. As it stands, they're just taking up space and make the tab look a little bit more cluttered. I also don't recommend hanging on to gathering resources such as divine energy or herbs unless you have an absolute goal in mind for them. If they're just sort've there, sell them, make the money! Or if you want to make charge packs or whatever it is I'm thinking of, do so! Same goes for nails (which are all but useless after a certain construction level), and planks. This is one of the better skilling tabs I've seen, but I feel like it could be cleaner than it is. Then we jump down to your slayer tab, which I am not a fan of in general. This is not a slight against your slayer tab, I am just of the opinion that holding on to slayer/PvM drops is utterly pointless. The end goal is to sell them anyway, so just do it! It does nothing but hog up bank space and withhold money that could be yours. That is, of course, my opinion. However, your gemstones should absolutely be put into a gem bag, condeses your bank and makes it just a little bit neater.

Which brings me to the final section of the bank, the junk tabs. I understand a miscellaneous tab but good lord do they take up space. Fishing cages, a couple cannonballs, a chocolate bar, a one, a banana, buckets, a gold ring, a random tinderbox, chisel, ashes, spades, an eyepatch, a mithril dagger, some newts eye, really? I could go on, but ultimately most of the things in this tab seem to be things that could could effortlessly be rid of, freeing up a ton of bank space for you. Not to imply that you're short on it, but man does this tab feel unnecessary! This is my biggest gripe for your otherwise fairly clean and organized bank.
