By the time I was level 20, my cube was expanded 3 times and warehouse 2 times. As you quest and level, you pick up lots of vendor trash that can be sold for a good amount. Think of expanding your inventory an investment. The cost becomes larger and larger after each upgrade, but the amount of Kinah you are making should be able to keep up. The extra income from having this extra space can help pay for all your new spells and various reagents you may need. If you pick everything up that you see, you end up with very full bags. So the more storage space the better. Sometimes going into town to vendor, sell, and store these items may not be very convenient when you are questing in the middle of nowhere. In addition to all these drops clogging our inventory, you may also have all the items you are extracting/gathering. From what I have seen, a lot of players are gathering nodes since certain quests requires you to. Leveling extracting can be a pain since you have to sometimes farm a bit just so you meet the level requirement for the next item. I believe that the last skill level requirement for gathering before I hit 20 was 90 extracting skill.

Expand Cube

You can expand your cube a row at a time. Each row has 9 slots. So far these are the prices we have seen, we will up date this as we progress. It looks like the price/tax rates affect the cost of these expansions.

Expand 2: 45 cubes. Cost: 12,100

Expand 3: 54 cubes. Cost: 60,500

Expand 4: 63 cubes. Cost: 188,760

Expand Quest: 72 cubes: Cost: FREE

Expand 5: 81 cubes Cost: 363,000

Expand 6: 90 cubes Cost: ??? (Quest)

Expand Warehouse

Starting: 32 cubes

Expand 1: 40 cubes. Cost: 1,200 Kinah

Expand 2: 48 cubes. Cost: 24,200

Expand 3: 56 cubes. Cost: 72,600

Expand 4: 64 cubes. Cost: 179,685

Expand 5: 72 cubes. Cost: ??? (Quest?)

Expand 6: 80 cubes. Cost: ??? (Master Crafting Quest?)

You get these 16 slots for free and this can not be expanded. This part of the Warehouse can be accessed by any of your characters on the server.

I wonder if you can get your cube expanded past lvl 4?
Mine’s level 4 right now, but the guys in Pandemonium can’t expand it more, I heard there was a lvl ~30ish quest that added an extra row, but i’m only going on level 27 right now.
Still haven’t broken down and bought warehouse level 4, pretty pricey but I might do it soon!

For as much trash that drops, I really wish you could have bigger bags, or mail more than one item at a time too. Also the 10 item limit in the AH really is a ‘culture shock’ of sorts when coming from WoW haha.

@ Ewber – I am still not level 30 yet, but there is a quest that gives an extra row. Maybe you have to wait till that or even level past 30. Also there are two cube expander NPC’s that are right next to each other, try talking to the other one and see what happens.

The 10 item listing limit does kinda suck, so maybe having a bank alt will help. You can use the account warehouse to transfer items as well.

Yes, I broke down and bought the game, finally… WoW just made me too sleepy.

Anyhow, working towards ascension (1 level to go) and I gotta say making Kinah is rather simple. Prices seem reasonable for all of these things so it’s nice to get a preview of what I’ll be needing to collect to acquire the extra slots. Price wise all these things sound quite reasonable.
