Could we please add, be able to earn, or buy with karma:
- Banker
- Black Lion Trader
- Crafting Station(just the active skills maybe)
- City Specific Mini-game
- Fishing?

Possible gem store items:
Harvest Node
They work like rich ore veins or like a Sprocket Generator. For example a Carrot Garden Node could be harvested at least 10 times, with a chance of a drop like Dill(instead of pebble or blade shard)

Garden/Planter
Carrot, Onion, Garlic, Potato, Black Peppercorn. Vanilla

Farmer/Rancher
Egg, Butter, Beef, Poultry

Baker
Ball of Dough, Cookie Dough, Bowl of Baker’s Dry Ingredients, Bowl of Baker’s Wet Ingredients

Rich Iron Vein

Trees
Green Wood, Soft Wood(buy up to 3 each)

Salvage Station
As in Crude, Basic, Fine, etc.(but x uses per day). Or more like the Salvage-O-Matic(low fixed price)And then sell upgrades so you can increase chance of rare materials or increase chance of removing upgrades(like Bank Sections or Component Limits)

I whole-heartedly support this.
The home instances are so empty right now, let us do something with them.
Give us a reason to visit them.

I support this. I’m currently not really sure what the home instance is for other than for farming candy corn nodes.

What i would like is to have port to my home instance skill/item. Limit it to once per hour/30 mins use.

Combined with above conveniances it would be awsome.

Just something that popped into my head while reading this, not sure if it’d work or not.

Maybe add your other characters to the home instance so you can trade items with them (i.e. if you forgot to transfer your Salvage o Matic you could talk to the character in your home instance to collect it). This would save having to clear bank space and relog twice to transfer your gear/minis/gathering tools/etc… between characters.

I like this idea.

I would love to see more upgrades to the home instance. Maybe even give us a proper house to decorate….
If they made the nodes in the gem store into rich nodes, I’d so buy.
Love the thought of seeing your other characters in the home instance, even if they only appear in their proper race instance.

Awesome idea. Why hasn’t there been more chatter in the past about this?

That sounds like a reason to not go into the world and ya know…play.
All those gathering nodes would dilute the market even further, not to mention trivializing gathering in general.
I have all of the special home-instance nodes (quartz, candy corn, sprocket) and I’m fine with those. They were earn from the LS and cannot be farmed anywhere else. But the common nodes found throughout the world (including the bundle offered in the gem store) shouldn’t be. It encourages people to spend all their time in private instances rather than in the world.

As for TP and Bank and such….why? You have to be in a city anyway to get to a home instance, and cities have everything you’re asking for. If it’s just to avoid map chat, turn it off. I fail to see where this is helpful or even useful. Just one more loading screen.

More upgrades to home instances would be welcomed. Some good ideas here. Really like the crafting stations and ways to create additional harvesting nodes. Maybe something like convert 5000 x into a seed, node, tree with a limit on how many you can create.
