Guild Wars 2

I agree that it shouldn’t be 15% upfront since that overly punishes the seller if their item doesn’t sell. However I do think the 10% fee should be listed somewhere after the sale (like in the Items I’ve Sold window) so people know where their money went.

I’d rather be able to sort by armor type than just a “useable” toggle, since sometimes I’m buying armor for alts on my main since he has the most money, or sometimes I’m just looking through the different gear to see if there are any deals.

Both are good additions to the TP, and both should be added (quickly, since the current filters are annoying), but I’d rather have the armor type filter first, I think it would provide more searching options.

Couple of questions:

Can you queue for multiple maps at once? Or does it only count the last queue you entered?

Is the map population split evenly per server, or is it first come first served? So if a map has 300 slots each world will have 100 reserved for them, or can one server can get more if they’re quicker than the other servers?

This is all “what they said during beta” but yeah, it’s supposed to cost 1800 gems to transfer from what I remember.

But when they turn on that feature they’re also supposed to be turning on Guesting. With Guesting you can “soft transfer” for everything but WvW. So from what I understand of it (I never got to try it in beta, I never saw it working then) it functions like a server transfer except it’s not permanent and it is free.

So you go to the server select screen and choose Guesting (like choosing to Transfer now) and you can log on that server just like if it was your main server, and you can participate in everything except WvW on that server.
From what I remember, you keep your main servers WvW bonuses though, so you can’t transfer just get those bonuses for PvE.

So the only reason you’d need to actually transfer (and pay gems) in the future is for WvW, from my understanding. (I don’t know how Guesting affects cross-server guilds though)

TottWriter.8591:

People want to be on worlds with high WvW scores because of the passive benefits that score offers to players in terms of crafting and gathering bonuses etc.

So people transfer to those worlds so that they can access them, and then hop back to be with their friends.

Maybe this hasn’t been turned on yet since we’re not on two week rounds yet; but transferring worlds was supposed to lock you out of the benefits from the new worlds for the rest of the round.
So if you transfer you’re not supposed to be getting the bonuses your new world won until the next two week cycle starts.

@OP you do realize that the unlimited transfers, and now the 24 hour blocks, are temporary right? At least if they go by what they’ve said before, we are going to be limited to one transfer a week from what I remember. And it’ll cost gems. Of course we’ll have Guesting then too which might solve your needs.

Alright, thanks.

I think there is still a problem with the TP stealing money from sales. I just sold a Berserker’s Pearl Blunderbuss on the TP for 4g 39s, with a 21s Listing Price. I posted it, and 21s disappeared from my Currency Counter. Therefore, upon selling, I should recieve the full 4g 39s. Well, the item sold a minute later, and I had 3g 95s waiting for me. I looked at the Sales log, and showed it sold for 4g 39s. Where is the missing 44s? I’ve been selling items constantly for the past 24hrs, and while I knew money wasn’t adding up, this is the first time I caught it in a lie cause I only sold a single item. That is alot of money gone. Please fix this, and if possible, recheck all previous transactions to return the lost funds to people. Thanks!

The TP charges two fees. Listing an item is 5%, and when you sell an item you get charged 10% on top of that initial fee (from what I’ve read).

So:
5% of 439 = 21.9 = Listing fee
10% of 439 = 43.9 = Selling fee

Or so I assume that’s where you’re money went.

I placed a custom buy order for a bow. The order was for 1g, 60s, 50c. The money was removed from my account. Since several days has passed and I want to cancel my order, I don’t see where I can do that. How do you cancel a custom buy order?

-“My Transactions” tab in the TP
-At the top there’s a little magnifying glass with a down arrow that says “Items I’m Selling”, click the magnifying glass.
-Choose “Items I’m Buying” and this will list all the custom orders you’ve placed.
-Click “Remove”
-Go to a physical Trading Post location and take your money from the “Pick Up” tab.

My buy button is grayed out and I can’t buy anything, though I can search things up. I think a couple other pages of the TP are also blank. I didn’t see a solution for this in the thread, so I’m posting it here.

Have you tried logging out and back in? My Buy button was grayed out, and when I exited the game and started it up again it was working again.

Back in beta people were saying that leveling was quicker up till level 3o then the curve flattened out. Is this still true? How much does it flatten?

Thanks

I haven’t done any of the other human story lines yet so I have nothing to compare it to, but I really enjoyed my ‘Circus’ story. Carnies are fun and there was a lot of humor in general, as well as a few really fun fights… one of them was really challenging. Challenging in the fun way, not challenging in the frustrating way like some of the fights in the Norn story line. But I had a lot of fun with the story line.

I’m also one of the ones who can’t buy anything due to the Buy button being greyed out. And can’t sell anything because my inventory doesn’t load.

Also, tooltips aren’t working for me in the TP (they work in the rest of the game though), so I can’t compare gear or even see an items description.
