Guild Wars 2

Currently I have to go through the process of buying gems to trade for items in the store, it would be nice if I could just purchase and have the gold-to-gem conversion happen automatically.

Why do I want this? cause sometimes I just want to buy something without having to input random currency values for 30 minutes to get the gem value I need.

It would also be nice if in the gold to gem conversion I could just input how many gems I want and it would do the math for me instead of “I wonder how much I have to input for 800 gems” each time I want to buy something or just invest in gems.

The BLTC has a history feature but the gem store just shows what you bought. I had a random amount of gems left over after purchasing gems for gold and then buying things but I’m sitting at 0 gems apparently so I lost a few somehow…
I would like to have the history of the gem store include gems purchased, not just items. You can replace the false “Market Data” section on the home page since it’s nowhere near close to accurate (see screenshots).

Gems | Currency | Rate/Price | Total Cost
800 | gold | 8s 63c / 1 | 39g 50s 0c

I haven’t done many conversions, but the couple of times I have I was wondering the same thing. It would be a definite and obvious improvement to just have the ability to directly buy the amount of gems you want instead of having to plink away at various values of Gold until you find the right one.

While it would be nice, I just get my phone out and use the calculator. If the average conversion is 4gold for 100gems and I want 800gems, then I just multiply four by eight and get my number. That is how much gold I need to get 800gems. I know it feels like a hassell having to do the math on your own, but this doesn’t feel like something they’d be putting very high on the priority list.
