Yep just like 1.0 without the need to go through every market ward to find the retainer lol

Anyone else thinks it's rather hilarious we actually want some things from 1.0 to come back? -_-

I see why they have the system the way it is, but also know there are lots of sellers out there that don't want to go through the hassle of splitting and doing all that so what they should of done is add a check box which allows the seller to choose if they will allow the buyer to buy singles or any amount from the stack they are selling up on market.

This is similar to something I posted in some other thread. SE could just add an option for the seller to set a minimum purchase quantity that defaults to the full amount. For example, say I list 100 shards and the default would be that the minimum buy is 100 shards. But I could list 100 and set a minimum buy of 10 or 12. Then someone could buy 15 or 98 if they wanted. Once there are fewer than the minimum left on the market board, the market board could either return the items to the seller or change the minimum to the remaining quantity.

Not everything from 1.xx was horrible. Especially stuff from the later patches. 1.0 specifically was quite a broken game but the stuff that came out across 1.xx wasn't that bad at all. The bulk selling tickbox however was already out in 1.0 I think and it was awesome. I used it regularly (though not many others did for some reason) if I wanted to do bulk sales at a lesser cost just to get rid of stacks of stuff. Nothing wrong with bulk options so long as that's all they are, options. I'm still very much in favour of individual sales from a stack however. It makes things far easier to sell without taking up all sale slots on a fifth of a single stack of items if you wish to cater to those who only want 1-2 of an item rather than the 99 most people tend to stack and sell.

I actually do see the benefits of not being able to select how many you can buy. Of course, the buyer draws the shorter straw in this system, but for seller it gives so many other options to sell your stuff instead of just undercutting more than others, at least for stackable items. You can for example sell a full stack of items cheaper, and ask a bit more for single items / smaller batches. I suppose the system has been mainly thought from sellers' side because in any case as buyer you have to pay more, but it also keeps the economy somewhat in check by allowing proper competition between sellers when there's other options than just undercutting.

The mod is saying to please type in Japanese on the Japanese forums so everyone can try and understand, Mapex is saying he wishes the devs are looking at both JP and NA WAR threads and make good adjustments.

[HiirNoivl]

What do you think Rein? Did the response you got on Twitter from Foxclon hint at any possibility of the adjustment? Or was like "No way, no adjustments are coming!" Or was it like "No, Yoshi was not saying we will adjust WAR at that time."

Thank you!
