The Dimensional Satchel

More than a few of you have been asking about houses in the game: whether they can be built, bought etc. So I think it’s time to talk about our plans in a little more detail.
Wakfu is set at a time when the wounds inflicted on the world by the great cataclysm are only beginning to heal, when most settlements have been destroyed. Inhabitants of the world have grown accustomed to a nomadic way of life which takes them from island to island according to season, quest or desire. They see nothing unusual in sleeping under the stars, and but for showers of rain and herds of hungry beasts, they might well have no use for shelter at all.

This is where the magic of the immobile journey comes in, whose mysteries have only recently been uncovered. I’m talking about, the “dimensional satchel”, which look perfectly normal, but whose capacity equals that of a whole house! Our best guess as to the nature of these living holdalls is that they remain balanced between two worlds, two dimensions… but in truth, we can’t be sure. It’s just one more mystery to be solved sometime in this brand new era when nothing seems quite right.



Whatever the case, it’s a bonus - no more curling up in a ball and rolling into your little canvas pea pod… you can invite your friends round and get some new chairs to put them on, make some weapons or even open a small shop to sell your items…

In order to do all this, you’ll have to find crystals with magical energy which will change the interior of your satchel. Your little bag might be greedy by nature (keep an eye on your shoes!) but it will only manage to gulp down a few crystals, so you’ll have to plan your interior design carefully. How about an oven in the corner for those long trips in the wilderness? Or a store to sell off the booty you thieve from your victims? Or the ever popular secret passage for a whispered meeting with your chums?



It’s up to you, your imagination and your career to guide the form of your satchel. All the same, it’s never good to give it a stomach ache ;)
So as you see, there’ll be no houses as such but rather a system that we hope you’ll find more versatile, fun and original.

LOL :-D
At last an RPG dares tackle the issue of just how much stuff a Bag of Holding can really contain.
Kudos guys. Full marks for fun ideas, as usual d_^_^_b

Aye, its a very original idea :D.
I've only seen something similar in another MMORPG which name i won't mention... But it was rather limited, having to come back to the hometown to access your house and browse and pets, and the customization wasn't even close to what we can see in this preview :].

I make Fib's words my own, kudos guys n_n.

This is completely awesome! I love how a piece of gameplay is so well woven into the feel of the setting.

It doesn't hurt that the gameplay item is awesome either!

When you see how big dofus is you'lll go wow when you see you have to add everything in there into wakfu you'll dang! You still got a lot ahead of you but you still have time to make new genuine things. I got to commend you. (I have dual personalities)

Dofus Character: Osamodas "EsosaX"
Wakfu Character: Xelor "Master of Time" (Woo!)

Adorei essa maeira de guarda as coisas e de como será versátio pois em um momento poderemos ter apenas uma casa, em outro momento uma pequena loje, em outro momento um lugar para reunir a galera e elaborar novos planos de combat. Mais uma vez fico surpreso com os gráficos do jogo e como ele será interessante, mais uma vez digo que estou aguardando anciosamente a chegada do jogo!!

Um forte abraço e desde já "Anjo-das-trevas"
