    Look I get the devs wanted to mimick real life and a capitalistic free market system. however, what they've done is cave to a system that favors Wall Street elites. Guilds sitting on 230mill...sheesh...and if that's absolutely necessary to be competitive in the bidding process than zos needs to deflate, so smaller guilds can be competitive and not held hostage to the same monopolies ruling rawlinka.


    i dont think you know what monopoly means.

    no one is held hostage to anything in this game. if you dont want to be a member of a guild in rawlka, then dont. you can make money at any trading stall, its not hard.

    i also dont understand the anger at how much some guilds make. the guilds in rawlka pay vast amounts of gold to stay in rawlka. they arent doing anything wrong by winning their bid every week, and there is nothing inherently evil about running a guild or being a member of one.

    if you dont like the guild system, dont use it. spam area chat or text chat and sell your items ( they do this in rawlka all day long ). no one forces you to be a member of a guild.

    Guilds have no reason to stop you from trading. I am part of 3 trading guilds and never pay a single piece of gold, unless I feel like it.

    so that means they cant kick you for not paying??? hmmm .. i support a central AH and keep spamming these threads ill keep supporting till the bad system gets fixed for the better!!!

    except a central ah is not for the better. not in any way shape or form is it for the better.

    Millions of gold is not even that hard to get. It's even easier than the other Elder Scrolls games and that says a lot :)

    its so easy to make gold in this game. even without guilds.

    i am in five guilds. 4 of them are trader guilds. i make a ton of gold through them.

    on the flip side --- i made 480k gold in less than an hour standing by the wayshrine in rawlka. --- just by linking motif pages in chat and selling them outright.

    yesterday --- just yesterday -- i made 680k through the trading guilds i am in. the total dues for all 4 guilds i am in combined are 25k weekly, but i donate at least twice that and take part in raffles also.

    there is gold everywhere.

    I understand they don't want an AU system but the guild store could still use an upgrade for once the UI system of it is horrible (on console atleast)
    And the whole bidding system for a spot is also a horrible system and not fair to the new players/new guild (it basically the rich get richer)


    Again don't have to add AU system just rework the guild store system into something better

    And whats wrong with the rich getting richer?

    agreed.

    been hearing this all my life --- the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. such a silly statement. even sillier when used in the context of a video game.

    notice it is always the deadbeats that want to punish success ?

    People come from other games and just want the same, I dont get it. If you want these systems you think are amazing, go back and play those games, simples. Don't try to dumb down a system that people playing this game like and enjoy and have bothered to put the effort Into learning.

    Anyone that's played ESO a while has learnt how to trade and guild effectively. Just cos some of you guys haven't, don't hate the mechanism. Adapt and overcome!

    Put the effort in, and you can do all you wish for pretty simply.
