a few silk cloths, some linen and some leather sounds reasonable to me. PSY based liek other ranger gear.

I agree on more inventory space but actual i dont like the idea of making bigger backpacks because there will be enormous weight overturning you to the back and instead add something like pouchs (small bags). You can hang several pouches in your belt each adding ~4 inventory slots added the same way like the merchant's robe.

I would like a "ranger's backpack" too.
Made out of Leather, Silk & Linen Cloth sounds good for me.

How does that make any sense? It wouldn't overturn your pixel-man because it would just be a reskinned backpack.
As if the current allotted cells of space are the perfect amount to fill every feasible backpack you could imagine a hearthling wearing to capacity, just under the tipping over point.
Let's take a perfectly reasonable, albeit inefficient, idea, and shit on it to make the UI more clunky and tedious, in the form of multiple bags to open.
If you want complicated go back to WoW, gtfo my sandbox.

pixel man makes less sense than laws of physics and center of gravity... was your question rhetorical or retarded?

Woah, calm down there tiger, he suggested multiple bags work like the merchants robe, not like the seed bags, get your paper bag, take a few deep breaths, then read his post again.

To be fair, that is the first thing that popped in my head too. More seedbag type inventory...

I personally wouldn't mind something like a quiver for rocks... maybe an ammo bag? I'm thinking this because I wasn't impressed that I needed to wear -either- a backpack or a quiver. From my understanding, the most you'll see a quiver worn on the back is in the movies, so I would love to see being able to wear a quiver at your belt.
