How are players with default stash tabs supposed to complete "Own these unique items" challenge?

Well yes, in a way extra stash tabs do offer a gameplay advantage, we can both agree on that.

But again, I leveled to 89 on my alt with just 4 stash tabs and mules. 100% free to play.

Yes, more restrictive, slightly more annoying and time-consuming, but you pay absolutely nothing.

I agree. Playing with 4tabs+mules is doable, but not optimal. Just like spending 1000 hours grinding for a Kaom's Heart is doable. But not as optimal as working 10 hours at McDonald's for minimum wage ($7.50), and purchasing a Kaom's Heart with the earned $$$.

I'm not advocating RMT, but simply pointing out that GGG sort of has a double standard. On one hand, they demonize RMT sites for selling pixels (convenience), while at the same time selling "convenience" via stash tabs right in their own MTX store.

This is an incredibly broad analogy - you really went out of your way to try to paint both items with 1 brush there.

"Obama breaths air. ISIS breaths air. Therefore they are both the same." - This is the same type of analogy. Both are pretty out there.


No this is not the same type of analogy. You're constructing a strawman out of a ridiculous analogy (Obama, wtf?) and claiming that you've somehow disproven my analogy.

Try again.

One is against the rules and can get you banned while the other is safe and won't get you into any trouble.


Buying equipment for $$ is buying power, buying stash tabs for $$ is buying space, space to store more items than a free player which is a benefit for hoarders but it's not a necessity as the game offers you a great amount of character slots and the option to create more accounts for free.

You could argue that the free player would have to spend a few seconds more getting gear from alts / other accounts than the players that bought stash tabs but at the end of the day they have the same amount of storage.

Just like working at McDonald's for 1000 hours to purchase a top of the line computer is doable but it's not as optimal as robbing a bank.
