Which Stash tab to buy ?

[Jill Sandwich]

When the EA released and the stash tabs on sale. which one should I buy ? I have 600 points.

1/ Currency
2/ Maps
3/ premium

Keep rest of the points and buy whichever stash you feel like you need. There are stuff that you get alot and others you wont be getting alot. Also, PoE2 will be different than PoE, so who knows what you gonna hoard.

I would wait for a stash tabs sale with 20% discount they do one every 3 weeks Currency Stash Tab 60,Map Stash Tab 120,Stash Tab Bundle 110 Add six extra tabs to your shared stash (at a discounted price),Premium Stash Tab(good to trade items) 30 points total 320 points. You get 4 stash tabs for free.

Imho unique tab is one of the worst for 2 reasons - 1/ it can store only single copy, which is sad for items with variable stats and 2/ most uniquest are not worth of even picking. And i think PoE2 wont have that much uniques in EA anyway. Unique tab should be able to store atleast 5 copies to be anyhow buyable.

Essence or card stashes are much better picks as you will hoard both.

But you still need the tab otherwise you'l just overflow your normal tabs.
All you have to do is compare and put the better one in the unique tab.
And i guess we'l see how many uniques there are if it works like in POE1 where it shows the ghost of the item even if you don't have it.

Won't map stash be kinda useless in this game? I only played last season till 95 and juiced t16 maps with only 1 premium stash btw. You won't need much if you spare some time to manage.

They are switching tabs that changed in Poe2 , so the map might switch to waystones or something. I think the map tab is great , I have so many T16 like 40 or each

Just dont pick trash uniques, problem solved. The 140 price tag is also killer of already terrible stash tab, you get stash bundle with 6 extra tabs for 150 that can be used for everything, not just storing few usefull uniques.

And how will people know which unique is trash?
They specifically said they want to make every unique useful that's why they reworked old ones.
The unique stash tab will always be needed and useful.
And like i said it comes after the list you posted.

I have all stash tabs. Unique tab is absolutly the last on my list as it doesnt offer any usefull function while its too expensive. Dunno how its "needed and useful", its just a trophy room for ADHD hoarding collectors.

Don't buy any tabs right now. We don't know which tabs will carry over from PoE 1 to PoE 2, nor if there will be new tabs exclusive to PoE 2. In addition, the game is still playable even without any tabs, so you get more value out of your money/store points by waiting for a stash tab sale before buying anything.

Having said that, everyone will have a use for a Currency tab and at least one Quad tab, and the rest of the tabs you can buy as you have a need to store more stuff or better organize your items.

Like i said previously, it helps with alleviating useless hoarding and space for the premium tabs. When you have it neatly packed with the uniques that have good rolls and just throw out the rest.
It's definitely useful and needed.

I'd wait till 2's EA is out and we know what the situation is with storage, since it might be different from PoE 1 and how it all works.
For me I have a handful of extra normal stash tabs, currency tab, unique tab, gem tab, flask tab, maps tab, and a handful of others. There was a sale at one point a long while back and I chose to just buy up a number of things since I played it enough.
If all that will be needed in 2? No idea.

I agree with this.

KEEP IN MIND. STASH TABS WILL BE ON SALE ON DEC 6TH WHEN THE GAME LAUNCHES.
