    Quite a while back we mentioned that we were looking into having a feature that would let you know once an item was purchased from your retainer, as well as an icon you could click to confirm which items were purchased.

    We are planning to implement these features during the Beta Test in two phases:
    • Beta Test Phase 1: Alert feature that lets you know you sold something
    • Beta Test Phase 3: Feature that lets you check the purchased item history

    The alert feature will make a specific sound when you log into the game if an item was purchased.

    What about purchases during gameplay (once logged in and playing)? Are we getting that alert feature too?

    I'm sure the icon will present itself the same way. This is "music" to my ears. Thanks for the heads up Rukkirii

    According to Reinheart's post below, I think that's what it means.

    It would be pretty silly to only get the message at log on unless there was a reason they had to implement the feature in such a limited way due to time constraints.

    I'm reminded of the NPC linkpearls in 1.0. It makes sense that we'd give them a two-way linkpearl.

    The way I read it, you get an alert when you sold something, but it looks like the sound is only when you log in. Needs clarification though.
