Ok, first of all I have to say that I loved DD and I'm loving D2, but this thing is really bugging me.
I know that
when I get the Battle Tower there's no way to go back to the Valley or the "Island" to finish quests I may have still active or collect items. I was following the main quest mainly to have a place to storage items since I was very encumbered at some point (oh well I still am...), but now I can't do that because first I want to complete all the remaining side quests in those areas.
So is there no really other way to storage items before
that event? Have I to "waste" ability points to raise encumbrance limit? Or am I missing something??
