The Guild Trader...

I am fairly new to this game, I bought it at launch for ps4 and quit when I found out there was no text chat. I have now came back because they are implementing text chat very soon. So now as I am leveling up i am trying to buy a lvl 18 lighting staff, but I cant find one anywhere. I spent what I felt was way too long trying to find this low level item that I can not craft yet.

Will there be a global auction house, this guild trader system is so stupid and inefficient. Has there been anyword on this issue?

    Yes it has been mentioned. Global auction house isn't happening. Also it at least "appears" (in other words completely a subjective assessment) most people are fine with the guild trader system, even if it needs some tweaks.

    That is disappointing to hear. This guild trader system needs alot more than just a few tweaks.

    It may simply be a playstyle thing. Personally I'm fine with guild traders even if I feel it needs adjustment in some areas. Other, like yourself, probably just hate the idea as a whole.

    To be fair, the lack of text chat on the console versions is a big part of the problem. PC users can just ask in /zone for someone to make them a staff.

    Also, Guild Traders become a lot more functional with addons - which again aren't available on console.

    There is some truth to that. I'm on PC, but I've always said consoles should get some add-on support and different functionality for guilds and all that since it is a different platform, with different needs. I don't believe they'll gain that sadly.

    why dont you join a guild and ask someone to make you a staff, as long as you have the material needed i doubt anyone will mind.
