    Search for motifs and then sort by time remaining with the most amount of time remaining on top. That's going to give you the newest listings first. Check the most recent few days and then move on to the next trader.

    I have found this to yield results that are highly valid.

    Even if its not a text search option, Drop down menus to filter results by style, armor piece, etc. would be AMAZING! Im a console player so I dont have the luxury of add ons, I have to manually search every trader every time im shopping. Ive spent HOURS searching traders for items, Even with the help of friends. It shouldnt be like that.

    I agree with this, please do something about the guild trader search functionality. I've spent hours on end looking for stuff, and quite frankly it's giving me a migraine having to scroll through hundreds of items only to find that what I'm looking for is not being sold at that trader... I don't think it's too much to ask.

    It shouldn't be too much to ask but for some reason in 4 years of people asking zos has yet to so much as comment on this.

    Another 12gb update for consoles today and yet still no QOL improvements. But hey they got rid of that bug in the crown store this week in under 48 hours so who cares if it takes days to find stuff in guild traders, why would you want anything from them anyway the crown store is searchable right.

    When you think about how long this game has been out its absolutely mind-blowing that the guild-store UI is so pathetic.

    It is not just the Guild Store window, it is the whole of the store system itself, having to check hundreds of individual guild vendors in dozens of zones for useful items is pitiful system.

    Unless you are in massive trade guild you cannot get stuff sold, and unless you use 3rd party addons you cannot locate specific items from the said guild vendors.

    and its worse on console since we don't even have addons available to us.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno who is the dev I need to tag to let know that well all really want this?

    P.S. The reason I ask is I made 2-3 similar threads in the past, and assumed it was @ZOS_BobbyWeir :smile: (Do King of the Hill jokes work well in kidding Bobby?)

    Hmm they seems to have done this. I seemed to have necroed this thread just to thank Bobby and the others who worked on implementing this. Thanks guys!
