AUCTION HOUSE

AbioticViper
I'm a level 38 Sorc on the PS4.

Recently I have found myself wanting certain items more so then normal so I started buying them from the guild traders.

After doing so I found myself thinking what advantages does the current system offer a auction house system that EVERY OTHER MMO uses with good reason.

I have to spend 20times longer runing between traders, and teleporting around the place to find the items I want and compare the best deals.

What is the point of this system other then to ruin the trading system ? Or am I missing something ?

    Not unless you throw a couple of saddle bags on it. I'm all for the Auction HORSE but I'm ambivalent about an Auction House.

    An integrated search function (and) allowing 4 guilds to a stall.....would make the system 1000% better without the need for an AH
    If options weren't necessary, and everyone played the same way, no one would use addons. Fix the UI!

    At the very least a search function connected to all the traders.

    With a megaserver illusion the logistics of a server wide AH will be practically impossible to implement

    You think skin loading lag is a problem ?

    You think loading Guild Banks taking for ever is a problem ?

    You think Cyrodil PvP lag is a problem ?


    ... add server wide AH and you aint seen nothing yet !!
    Everyone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.
