[@AdamOfTime]

Those people are idiots

[@maximilianarlt2633]

i'm just gonna paste this here as well, hope you get some use out of it: The primary reason they named on the forums was actually a problem that would occur in multi player. If you had infinite stash you could have the other players load your stash in multiplay and thus slow them down significantly depending on their pc specs. Because grim dawn does not have dedicated servers it's impossible to outsource that data except to the host pc... and that would cause issues. another reason is the engine limitations. it's an engine from 2004 and thus pretty dated... overhauling the stash system should be enormous amount of work and i would rather see them spend this time on another expansion or a new game.

[@Limonlmomon]

I have exact thoughts about mods, but recently tried Grim Internals. Now, i cant play this game without it. I can't stress this enough, health bars (i also edited them to static colors, green for me, blue for pets, red enemies and purple bosses) and auto-pickup feels so natural, it relaxed my eyes and made me enjoy the game 10 times more (characters blend in with terrain so much, without health bars, i cant see whats going on)

[@Dimas_Lopes]

i am a poe and diablo veteran and i just started GD...about this discussion of the last mod being a cheat in my opinion it certainly is because it Works like a trainer as it alters your char gamefile to store items in other way other people may think that all of them are because they work by injecting codes inside the game even if they are not altering your char files but waiting the devs to create QoL adds takes a lot from them so i won't judge this part since most of them are posted on the GD forums

[@EadricRicmund]

A bit on warning for Grim Internals... they will disable steam cloud saving... which is fine if you only play on one computer but I play on multiple computers... so you will want to sync it you need to launch Grim Dawn normally to sync it.. however if one computer have out of date save then steam cloud save will upload the out of date save and overwrite your proper save. My save file was completely messed up because of it, because I keep all my components in my shared stash and I had a save where it have all the stash unlock and another that doesn't have all the stash unlocked... Steam cloud save overwrote all my save with all the unlocked stash and as a result i lost all my components.

[@Zarroc0215]

I don't use Item Assistant (IA) so take this with a grain of salt, but I've heard it's a mod you really need to be careful with/understand everything it does. What I've heard is that it collects data about your computer and your program usage from your computer and sends it out. Just an FYI to future users to do a little research before installing.

[@S3v3n11a]

Thanks for this info! One of the best sources of information for Grim Dawn!

[@corgimeister7283]

that grim dawn item assistant is soooo helpful!

[@Forty2de]

The item assistant looks extremely useful as a guy with 2 level 100 characters, but I also see a problem with it. Eventually you're going to have every unique item stored away in there. I think it can end up taking some of the fun out of the game if you always have the best items for every level on a new character. Such a playthrough would consist of blasting through the game unchallenged and then having all the gear you need as soon as you hit level 94. Then you go defeat the crucible and the shattered realm and you're already done. Then again, it's a single player game, so if that's what you wanna do then more power to you.

[@Markcus003]

It depends on the player actually I collect the best items in the game as a trophy not as a equipment because it gives me nerdgasm Everytime I see my well organized full set item collection.

[@MinesCreepers9]

[@yontevenknow3789]

GDIA should come with a pretty hefty disclaimer. It engages in automatic undisclosed data collection. Also, if you give them your email address, which they are now asking for, you are "literally an idiot". If you still wish to use the program, which is honestly quite nice, be sure to block the domains they use after installing.

Grim Down is one of those games that get better with every level you get. Fantastic progression system. Diablo 3 or even 2 are kids in comparison. Just wish it was full voiceacted this would bring the experience to a whole other level.

[@markus.schiefer]

Lack of search / filter in inventory and crafter menu are actually the main issues that I have with the game. While I would prefer a better ingame solution, also for component application, the Item Assistant is a perfect workaround for now.

True, and i do think that 4 tabs is just way to few when you first start but the game is free. So in any comparison it would be poe with like £30 worth of stash tabs

[@xd001290]

Why do people consider the last mod cheating, does it have other functions that Pohx didn't explain or people think it offers too much stashing/QoL. People use stash/inventory expansion mods in almost every game that they are applicable to. (Skyrim, Divinty 2 etc.)

[@constantinexie8484]

Thank you so much! This will save a lot of time and clutter.

[@EtamTheGreat]

Hey none of the links work, help?

[@keithwinget526]

I personally believe it is not cheating at all to have infinite stash available through a mod that gives you greater quality of life than the in-game infinite stash (which is a thing). In this case the game developers left the availability for infinite stash in the game in the form of just muling from extra characters. Their design decision itself may have intended for limited stash to be a part of gameplay, but the outcome of the actual design is that it really isn't. It ends up just being an annoyance instead. Furthermore, calling this cheating is essentially attempting to speak on the intent of the developer, which they ought to be perfectly capable of doing if they want to, and yet they made modding very accessible for this game. This tells me that it is certainly NOT their intent to even prevent cheating. They have no real incentive to doing so, as you have already paid for their game, and they are not maintaining a live economy. They've provided tools (such as hardcore mode as an example) for players to voluntarily opt-in to an increased challenge that is enforced by the game, but they left in the tools that allow for infinite stash space via muling. What I take from this is that the developers' design of the game is such that the player is empowered to determine what they consider to be a fair way to play for themselves, whether that was their intent or not. If a game can and DOES explicitly limit something such that having access to it would be outside of the scope of gameplay provided by the game, then you would be cheating by using some alternative access to that something. I can see a case where someone cares a lot about the metagame of knowing what to pick up and keep and what to leave on the ground, but Grim Dawn has no ladder. It has no leagues and there is no community I know of that provides these things as a third-party service, although I wouldn't be surprised to find I'm wrong about that last one and just haven't found it yet. For these reasons, the amount and type of gear you pick up has no real significance unless you are engaging in some sort of epic self-imposed challenge. In that case, you can define cheating as you like, since you are effectively playing a different game than the one everyone else is by layering extra rules on top of the existing game. EDIT: I personally use no mods, because I'm literally to lazy to bother with them. I have a hundred half-baked characters already, and I tend to just play with whatever drops, hardly ever using things out of my stash to level with, because it's filled with later-game stuff that I "might" use, but will most likely just gather dust, since I'll for get about it anyway. It's more fun to me to just occasionally dip into my stash here and there. I certainly use it for components and having some nice leveling sets for certain stages of leveling, but other than that I ignore it.

[@TheVin4enco]

If the third mod is cheating than buying stash tabs in PoE is cheating too lol

[@TheVin4enco]

@@davidvanbogelen Or in short, expanding your storage. Yes it is the same, doesn't matter if you pay for it or not, limiting storage in a game that revolves around collecting items is stupid. Besides it is just convenience, if i wanted storage without the program i would use mule characters, it the same thing in PoE, before i bought stash tabs i had bunch of mule characters that held my extra stuff.

5:48 D2 has had that stash app since the dawn of time. It's called ATMA. Nobody called it cheating back then. Not sure why they would now. Way better than creating mule characters to hold your extra items.

[@MrBlutknecht]

people call it cheating because the mod is not only a stash but can also create and alter items. You can literally create every item with perfect roles with that mod, which a lot of people do. Not like I care too much, it's mostly a single player game and if people wanna cheat in their single player game that's fine by me, but it's still cheating if you use those functions.

[@itcamefromouterspace1889]

crate entertainment should give us official mods support and steam workshop so that our save files don't get corrupted and we loses our precious high level characters because we loaded the game normally instead of selecting mods. Or at least make it so that the save files don't get corrupted on loading with the wrong mod. It literally killed all my interest for the game when my lvl 64 character got corrupted because i didn't load the game in proper order and there is no way to recover back that character.

[@Vapendragaren93]

The reason i don't see the Item collection mod as cheating is rather simple.. People LOVE to pickup everything shiny or are trying to collect everything in the game.. '' Holy Grail in D2'' is a good exempel of this.. Games with a fuck ton of loot like PoE and Grim dawn shouldn't have a limited stash tab to begin with.. It doesn't add anything to the game.

[@Chaos5061]

Some Items at low levels can be saved for new characters till you can access items like Lokkar's Set. Of course you'll probably want to save any set items really for new characters that you want to make. Myself I also save any blue or purple item that has Mythical in the name. Want to take a look at like a item database check out GrimTools website.

[@Dommomos]

If you play HC, def save items with good health rolls and resists for levelling. Apart from that yep blues and purps and things with plus skills to skills you like and think you’ll play (rings, chest armours etc can roll with plus skills). Monster infrequent (some of the green) that modify skills you like to use...although these can mostly be farmed pretty easy if you need for a particular build.
