Guild Wars 2

I’m not sure how much extra coding this would be, or where y’all are planning to go with the ‘standard’ karma merchants (the ones who sell basil, etc), but I think it would be Very Useful if those merchants also sold account-bound karma foods as you unlock them out in the world. Right now, I’m all, “where are peaches again? I’m out of peaches…” and then googling where that merchant is in another window, and then going out to get them. This is unnecessarily convoluted! Adding a merchant whose only ‘job’ was to vend karma foods from elsewhere would have the same effect; it’s just that the existing city karma merchants puzzle me. XD

That would be helpful.

And I also don’t get it why they have multiple karma merchants for the same food (basil, ginger, paprika?) in one small area.
I just could imagine they serve as a placeholder until they release more food to be bought from them in the future. ^^ (So they’ll remove one’s offering and replace it with new food.. but that doesn’t make much sense they just could introduce another merchant..)

+1

My current work-around is that once a month, I take a look at karma-only foods in the bank and go on a shopping run until I have about 200+ of each, with maybe some spare bulk packages for heavily-used items (not that there are many of those). It’s fun in a way to go out and visit these areas again, but I’d prefer not to be forced to do this.

Incidentally, sometimes it’s cheaper to buy the intermediate foods that are made with karma-materials, which removes the need to look for the vendor.
