[Request] Merge Mercantile Houses

[Rukkirii]

To all the shoppers and merchants out there, here are some responses to a couple questions we have been seeing.

Would it be possible to combine each city’s current three mercantile houses into one?

This was actually the development team’s original plan, but with problems related to the implementation of direct purchasing, it ultimately had to be implemented the way it is now for the current version.

It would be great if we had more locations for the retainer summoning bell, because there are still problems with overcrowding in certain areas.

Currently, we do not have any plans of increasing the number of call bell locations. However, if there continues to be overcrowding issues we will look into this again.

Has the dev team considered kicking retainers that haven't sold anything in a week out of the wards to make room for new, active retainers? Or a similar alternative. *Pulls from Rukkirii's whiskers ;c*

how about just having 1 house but 3 NPCs one for each nation in it to search from.

Also would be nice to have a bell in the inn rooms

.

Does that mean we will have only 1 Mercantile House with multiple NPCs in it, in 2.0?

I would like to see the Item search option added back to the main entrance to the wards like it was before as well.

Masamune server is maxed out on players. And every... single... ward.... is also maxed out in Uldah. I will never be able to get my retainers in there. Ever. Massive problem. I would rather be dealing with the old market system so long as it was all one market. Very frustrating. Very.

Edit: Retainer system should be abolished. Its not needed other than storage. Were is my classic FFXI auction house?
