Did number of slots for bags change

[smogfire]

<p>I don't remember how many slots they had but some of my bags overlap on screen now when I open them all.</p>

<p>Yes, bags now match strongbox sizes.</p>

<p>I guess this means I can carry all those boxes now?</p>

<p>Or get the Frostfell Shopping Bag which is 48 slots.</p>

<p>So my only question now is why would anyone ever use strongboxes again? The capacity is equal. Bags weigh less. So why bother with strongboxes?</p>

[Karrane1]

Cause I can make strongboxes and I can't make bags <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
