I'm sorry but I can't still get behind that the market will ever function as well as an AH can. It's been proven so far that it's a pain no matter how they 'fix' it. Human nature is about doing what is the fastest and most efficient and less hassle, and thus we get the congestion in Uldah....
The market wards were an exercise in redundancy, they could have worked as an alternative to setting up mules as shops on streets sides, as a place to sell crafting goods or materials. But they do NOT replace the effectiveness of an AH. There's got to be a better way to fight off bots and gold sellers then this.
My Retainers have been running for more than a Month and there wasn't even a Market Crash during that time, so I can call the problem of Market Crashing a low-level issue.
From the state of the game that is right now, we can't need an Auction House. We are few, the objects are in the Item Search feature, we just have to choose the right retainer, go into the right ward and buy the sh*t out of it.
Of course, in the future may be like cleaning your butt with sandpaper for reason Wolfie has stated in his/her topic. I'd like to see how they're going to solve that thing, and if they're going to solve it keeping the Market Wards system I'll be even more curious on how they'll be going to fix it.
Time will tell!
Getting sick of wards, having to run back at forth to retainer/zoneline to check prices to sell items is a pain in the ass, lieg is out of date, i've resorted to using a notepad and pen these days which is stupid lol.
Even with almost empty servers the wards are broken beyond repair.
I'd rather just have a working quick AH than a clumsy broken and downright unusable slow MW.
Yoshida started his reign of non productivity by hinting at an upcoming AH but had do you know 7 months later and still no AH. It's not like that time has been used productively to make the wards any better either. They're just broken crashy mess.
I hope someday SE will stop ignoring the requests for a real AH and stop wasting time on useless tweaks like monster and battle effect scales.
"but we don't need an AH, bla bla bla"
hippies i swear
Are you insinuating that all those adorable lalafells in R1 gear at Horizon named Besaid One through Besaid Ten were somehow connected to RMT? D=<
