The Downfall of 2.0

[ZakarnRosewood]

things wrong with the wards.

1:- inability to put retainers in a relevant ward. that is assuming you can get them in a ward at all.
2:- inability to search for hq / melded gear exclusively.
3:- the ball ache of running back and forth when trying to value your items.
4:- speed of the interface.
5:- inability to properly use the seek item feature. so much potential there but nope it's useless.

if they fixed these issues with the wards, would you then approve of it?

If I can buy / sell what I want quickly and hassle free then yes. and I mean 4 things with that statement really:-

1: If for example I want to buy a cobalt winglet+1 I can buy one without having to run through every ward because the item search results say there are 60 of them but list only the 20 lowest priced nq's or the same if I wanted to buy a pair of triple melded raptor skin gloves. where the item search results are full of unmelded or single melded items pushing the types of items I seek off the list entirely.

2: If the seek item feature worked in a sensible fashion then yes. for example I've looked for ash tuna and found it was 3 weeks since any was sold. It would be nice if my retainer could seek them and somehow fisherman could see that I want x amount and I'm willing to pay y for them. As it stands now if I want to seek 99 ash tuna then I have to already have 99 ash tuna and it also means that anyone with 50 ash tuna can't sell them to me unless they have 99.

3: If I wanted to sell something on my retainer it became hassle free to get a valuation. for example as soon as I click sell item and the box comes up to set my price it also bought up another box that listed the price history saving me a lot of hassle. rather than having to write down a list of everything i want to sell and spending 15-20 minutes scrolling through the item search writing down prices and then running back to my retainer to list them and then repeating in 2 or 3 days to get more recent prices etc etc.

4: If I want to buy multiple items i can do so in one transaction. for example if i want to buy 5 axes to go and spirit bond I could search once and click the 5 items i wanted to buy without having to start the whole process for each axe or item.

Thats totally a legit response. i would have to agree with most of what you would like fixed. The only reason i asked that question is i've seen some people protest the MW just because they want an AH. Even when they suggest "fixes" for it they still say MW's will suck and should be replaced with an AH. basically they arent willing to give a new system a chance to work out its bugs. Yet they are some of the first to complain about "cookie cutters" lol.
