Because I couldn’t fit it in the title, this app is currently only available on iOS, but Android/Windows Phone support is coming soon
This app brings a number of features that are distinctly lacking in the competition. This includes a lot of automatic calculations and very detailed filtering options.
Searching
Most of the app revolves around the search view. As you can see here, each search result tells you the Sell Price, Buy Price, Flipping Profit, Rarity and Profit Percentage. The profit percentage is represented as how green the cell is.
Refining Results
You can tap the ‘Refine’ button to bring up this menu. From here you can sort the items in the search view and filter each property precisely.
The criteria for sorting are:
- Name
- Item Level
- Profit
- Profit Percentage
- Sell Price
- Buy Price
- Supply
- Demand
- Rarity
The criteria for filtering are the same, excluding ‘name’.
Item Details
Back in the search view, each cell can be selected to bring up a detailed view for each item, [url=http://i.imgur.com/UdGjDai.png]like so.
Saved Items
Here you can see the type of item and the buy/sell amounts. You can also see all of the buy and sell listings available for the item.
On the item detail screen, you can add the item to a list of saved items. The saved list acts in the same way to the search screen, with the same information and filtering functionality.
Contact
There is a subreddit available over at /r/TradingPostHelper. Here you can submit feature requests / bug reports and post discussion or questions. Feel free to send me a mail in game as well if you need help.
Pricing
The app is available now for $0.99 or your regional equivalent. If you don’t want to pay, you can wait until the next update releases in about a week, then the app will switch to Free but ad supported. Ad removal will be available for $0.99, and anyone who buys it before then will automatically have the ads removed.
Anyone who buys the app now or the ad removal later will have access to ‘Pro’ features in the future.
Finding The App
You can find the app on any worldwide app store under the name “Black Lion Trading Post Helper”, with a black and gold icon of the Black Lion head.
Planned Features (Some may be Pro only)
The following features are planned for the near future:
- Alerts for when the price of an item rises/falls beyond a threshold
- Item recipe details
- Dye colour matching (you enter a colour and it finds the nearest dyes and tells you the prices)
- Windows Phone Support
- Android Support
