Soul bag

A soul bag (often referred to as a shard bag) is a bag used by Warlocks to hold more Soul Shards than they would normally be able to carry in conventional containers.

The soul bag consumes a regular container slot, however, so it reduces the number of available slots for non-Soul Shard items. The value of the trade-off is up to the individual Warlock.

Soul Shards harvested by the Warlock are automatically stored in an equipped soul bag when acquired, making tedious Soul Shard housekeeping a thing of the past.

Helpfully, soul bags also display the number of soul shards stored within them on the bag icon on the container toolbar.

With the soul shard system completely revamped, the soul bags were no longer needed. Most of the bags can no longer be acquired, while existing soul bags were converted to smaller normal bags.
