Market Boards for old endgame areas like Mor Dhona?

Think it's my nostalgia speaking as a player since 2014, but I think we should have market boards in Mor Dhona. It's currently a quiet area with not much going about due to the fact that there's not much to do there for people who completed the ARR parts.

Would be nice to have a market board there. It won't break the game as that area will never be as crowded as it was before for obvious reasons, but it will increase its popularity a little bit more. Can't speak for areas like Idyllshire (an area that has many things to offer like deliveries) or Rhalgr's Reach (still a new one) but if there was no harm, I'm sure having them there would be nice, too.

Revenant's Toll (which everyone seems to confuse with Mor Dhona which is the zone it's located it in) is not a city at all though, it's just a hamlet, a glorified aethernet camp, hence no Market Board. Also, I like having it quiet, at least it's not inundated with shout spam about random doggerel like Kugane is.

I think if we got extra marketboards, Idyllshire, Rhalgr and/or Eulmore would be more likely since they're enclosed cities, while Revenant's Toll has the surrounding monster-filled territory.

There must be something making it difficult, I think, because it seems strange to limit them to the relatively few cities. Maybe whatever system they have with retainers and market rates is hard to tinker with?

Retainers themselves probably aren't the issue since all the cities have summoning bells, including Mor Dhona. Market boards could be an issue, I don't know.

But more likely they're trying to encourage level cap players to spread out in multiple zones so no one zone becomes overcrowded. If Eulmore had market boards, there would be little reason for level cap players to hang out elsewhere while waiting for roulette queues, etc. Imagine having 300 players in the Canopy constantly. It would be lag city, especially when bored players started spamming their AoEs.

True. Would be nice if they got added to the "outdated" endgame areas though.
