Bottom Line

1. The Reagent Bag Slot

Warcraft Tavern spotted an extra bag slot in the demo: a fifth slot dedicated to a Reagent bag. Reagent bags come from modern WoW and hold spell reagents and crafting materials separately, so they do not clutter your main inventory slots. It is a small change with a big daily impact for crafters and casters.

2. A Much Larger Default Bank

The default bank is bigger too. In an interview with MMORPG.com at BlizzCon, Senior Game Designer Josh Greenfield, known as Aggrend, said the default bank is "either twice or four times as large" and estimated it at around 96 slots. Exact numbers depend on the final build, but the direction is clear: more baseline storage than vanilla.

Storage change	What it does
Reagent bag slot	Keeps reagents and materials out of main bags
Larger default bank	Roughly 96 slots per Greenfield, up from the classic default
Mounts window	Mounts no longer sit in bags
Transmog wardrobe	Appearances saved without holding the items

3. The Mounts Window

A dedicated mounts window removes the need to carry mounts in your bags at all, per Warcraft Tavern. Anyone who has logged into a character weighed down with a dozen unsummoned mounts knows how much room this frees up on its own.

4. Transmog Frees Space

The transmog system works the same way for appearances: you can save the look of an item without keeping the item itself. Combined with the reagent bag and bank changes, more space is available for the items you actually use while leveling, crafting, and collecting.

5. What It Means for Collectors

Crafters get dedicated reagent storage instead of mixing materials with quest items.
Mount collectors stop wasting a bag on summons.
Transmog collectors can bank appearances without hoarding gear.
The bigger bank gives casual players breathing room without requiring purchased bags.

Yes. Josh Greenfield said the default bank is about double or quadruple the classic size, estimating roughly 96 slots in an MMORPG.com interview.

What is a reagent bag in WoW Forever?

A dedicated bag slot for spell reagents and crafting materials, taken from modern WoW, so they stay out of your main inventory.

Bottom Line

WoW Forever quietly solves classic inventory pain: a reagent bag slot, a default bank around 96 slots instead of the vanilla handful, a mounts window, and transmog storage all add up to far more usable space. Crafters, hoarders, and collectors get the biggest win, and nobody has to fill a bag with mounts again.
