I was representing.

I tried zoning to mists, lions arch, and then the grove and it didn’t fix it. It magically fixed itself about an hour later. I didn’t do anything other than two more zones. One to Dredgehaunt, and back to the grove.

I have no idea…

I can no longer utilize the guild bank. I can open up the guild roster, do things like change the message of the day, but the guild banker says “I only work with guilds. If you wish to use my services, you must first seek a guild to join.”

I tried relogging, I tried reloading. Neither has worked. Anyone? Beuller?

The way to get Glob of Ectoplasm via salvaging

I have gotten ecto from level 68+ yellow items. Weapon/armor/jewelry didn’t matter. 0-3 ecto per. Using the master salvage kit (25%) bonus yielded more ecto than black lion (10%). Black lion however obtained all the runes/sigils if that’s a goal you are after.

I believe there’s also bonuses from wvwvw that if your server is doing well you will notice a vast increase in such things.

I know I felt the difference when the next “match” started and our wonderful bonus was reset.

Party Bonus Exist?

The only bonus I am aware of is if you group with members of your guild, every event you do will have an amplified influence bonus based on each guild member that does the event.

Less money than selling to NPC?

The real solution is to remove the ability to utilize the trading post without first going to a trader or activating the black lion trader express that was purchased with gems.

Then, and only then, will people stop/slow their use of the trading post as a convenience bank.

where are my coins?

This situation is utterly frustrating.

I ended up purchasing 45 bolts and 40 scraps of gossamer when I only wanted 5 scraps. When I got the error message of “Sorry! Your order did not match…please refresh and try again.” I did so believing that the order didn’t go through.

If I were to accept delivery of those 45 bolts and 40 scraps and attempt to resell them. I would suffer a loss of over 1 gold due to the 15% fees.

It’s already been 24 hours with no response to my support ticket, and I won’t expect a response any time soon.

Meanwhile, I cannot use the trading post because I am preserving the logs exactly where they ended up after the trading post issues in case support can actually DO something about it besides telling me to get bent.

So now I cannot buy anything new, or sell any of the excess items that I have. Till support get to my ticket. It’s frustrating. Makes me not want to play. =(

Being able to sell from anywhere is one of my favorite features in this game. I don’t want it taken away.

Also, even if we couldn’t, we can deposit collectibles from anywhere. It just means instead of posting those venom sacs 2 at a time, I wait til I’m in town then sell them 20 at a time. Doesn’t affect anything, just adds extra inconvenience for no payoff.

It won’t be taken away. It will however force you to purchase the item in the gem shop that is supposed to allow you to sell from anywhere. You will instead have to buy the black lion trader express.

New gold sink and now your convenience bank has even higher cost of use.

How hard would said link be to post to the official forums. You know, where people would normally check for official news…

Heck, they were posting “Updates” that linked directly to the wiki too. That would be acceptable. Don’t just throw crap on the twitterverse and expect people to know that is the place to look today.

You have an official forum, an official wiki, an official game patcher complete with news, and I am almost certain you have the ability for in game broadcasting.

Why in the 9 hells do you insist on using Facebook and Twitter where part of your userbase will never see such information.

Stop being 12 year old kids texting. 1st stop on the information should be directly to your forums. If you feel you must be “Trendy” and utilize facebook/twitter. Do that after an official post is made in a responsible location.

They only appear if there is something to be discovered.

If you already have all the recipes for silver for example, silver won’t show up in the discovery tab.

Each time you click the “buy” button, the purchase has been submitted. However, if the Trading Post was under load, it can take some time for it to catch up. As discussed in the link above:

  • User clicks buy, nothing seems to happen (button greyed out). No money taken, nothing shown in the “My Transactions” log.
  • 5-30 minutes later, money disappears from your bag. Still nothing to pick up or shown in the “My Transactions” log
  • 12-24 hours later, items that were bought start trickling in to pick up as the TP starts catching up again (or a refund if the item you tried to buy had already sold before the TP got to your purchase order – but that happens rarely).
  • AFTER the items finally arrive, they start showing up in the “My Transactions” tab, so until the TP actually catches up you can’t cancel/see them as having been submitted.

Cancelled sales also get caught in that 12-24 hour delay when the TP is like this.

It sounds like they managed to choke the TP with the updates earlier today/yesterday so that the above has started happening again.

That’s not even the issue.

I distinctly got a message that stated “Sorry! Your order did not match…….please refresh and try again.”

So stupid me, I did. Then when it didn’t work for bolts, I tried scraps a few times.

They need to code it to STOP right then and there and not process the order at all. Under no circumstances. Or change the message to something more like “Sorry! We can’t quite tell if your order did or did not match. Please do not try again!”

Gold lost on TP when it went down

Kumu Honua.2751

Except for this part:

“Sorry! Your order did not match…please refresh and try again.” I did that a few times, then tried scraps with the same result.

Now I am out 6 gold because in the end it actually DID perform the transaction and I now have 45 bolts and 40 scraps of gossamer when I only needed 5 freaking bolts.

That’s unacceptable.

If it says “Sorry, refresh and try again.” then it should NOT complete the transaction in any way, shape, or form.

And now my BLTC shows that I indeed actually bought 45 bolts of gossamer and 40 scraps.

All I wanted was 5 effing bolts.

It said that the trade did not go through. WTF man…

Missing Gold

Yeah, the trading post has most certainly eaten a HUGE amount of gold. I lost 6 gold when I tried to buy 10 gossamer =(

The same thing happened to me.

I had 7 gold, and now I have ONE gold. I was trying to buy 10 gossamer scraps from the trading post and kept getting “Sorry, doesn’t match” errors.

I am so sick of the trading post issues =(

Yeah. Same here.

I sold 150 elder logs. It told me I sold them for 13 silver or something. Nothing in pickup and history says I sold a stack of 15 and a stack of 12…

All purchases are giving “Sorry! Your order did not match…” errors…

I still say you should not be able to utilize the trading post without being at a trading post agent. Whether that is in a town or with the gem purchased express.

Would reduce the use of the trading post as a low cost convenience bank, encourage perhaps some more gem shop usage, and give a reason to that gem shop item.

Maximizing Whirling Wrath Damage

Dont forget the combo field you can create with symbol of wrath and whirl.
Not related to the topic but many people dont realize that.

Removing one condition from yoirself and your nesr by allies is great.

Also spec so that symbols add vulnerability for even more synergy.

I would just like to see them remove the “Sell from anywhere” ability of the trading post unless you buy and use a black lion trading post express item that you obtain from the gem store. As it stands, why would anyone ever buy one of those? You can already sell to the trading post from anywhere, the only thing you can’t do is pick up your profits, and really who needs to be able to pick up their profits while in a dungeon somewhere?

Trading Post: For those of you selling 1¢ above vendor price

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Kumu Honua.2751

Kumu Honua.2751

The answer is easier.

Remove the ability to sell an item on the trading post unless you are at an actual trading post whether in town or via the black lion trader express that you can buy from the gem store (I mean really, it serves zero purpose currently. Do you really need to pick up your profits while you are stuck in a dungeon?)

That would add a significant cost to “convenience” banking and prices would stabilize.
