    I think the structure of the market wards makes the world feel more real.

    If the technical issues and teleport times can be resolved, the market wards are an excellent way to facilitate player to player sales. The MW represent forward progress in game design, but a failure in implementation.

    - Put the market wards outside, and put everyone in a stall.
    So if the game takes off and say we start getting 10-20K players per server, with each a possible 7 retainers, that gives us a maximum of 140K stalls....they can barely fit 140K retainers as is, I don't know what they're planning with player influx but I don't see it working as is today.

    "Barely fit 140k retainers"?

    The ward limits are 200 retainers. That's 700 *** different zones just to store these bazaars. I really wish people would realize how ridiculously expensive, complex, and impractical the retainers are.

    Thank you moderators. PS: Please add an automatic profanity filter for stupids like me.

    What part of the system is progressive ? the market system EQ2 had was more progressive than the MW.

    I can't see how making a system that is slow, clunky and less accessible than an AH is moving forward.

    Pretty much anything SE has done in this game has been badly implemented, so that goes without saying.

    I think the market price history needs to come back online, and an AH should be added, with the exception that you can only perform 10 searches in 24 hours. Someone doing more than that is looking to squat the AH, not legitimately use it.
    I think 10 is way way way too low.
