Guild Hall Craft Table Consolidations

OreoPies · April 2021

So, with the ever growing amount of crafted sets it is making it harder to have guild halls decorated beyond just tables for sets, mundus stones, combat dummies, base tables, dye station, transmute, etc.

I mean you're talking about a Notable Home for 700 item space, picking one that has even floors or a place you can use as a clean and clear space to build/add platforms on top of for a smooth surface which throws out about half the homes. That leaves big homes with large yards or houses that basically is just a backyard to build on. In order to achieve a true guild hall with all needed items, you're using up almost half of your 700 item space which leaves little room for achievement bragging items, antiquities, decoration, seating, lighting, and more. Especially more if you're building a structure since you're utilizing a flat house like Earthtear Cavern with uneven floors, Coldharbour with a blank cold space, Hunter's Glade with tall grass and rocky foundation. Every home has its problems with fitting tables somewhere big enough to fit them.

Look at the numbers.
62 craftable sets
4 tables each set; Wood, Smith, Cloth, Jewelry
Total: 248

Basic Tables:
Wood
Smith
Cloth
Jewelry
Alchemy
Enchanting
Provisioning
Dye Station
Transmute

That's up to 257 items now.

Add in at least 1 combat dummy for Trial parsing on and 13 Mundus Stones.

Total now?
271 items.

We're already facing issues with item caps just to decorate a notable house, let alone trying to make a guild hall and partially decorate or build a structure so it feels more than business in a house. Why can't there be a solution for the craft tables to somehow... consolidate? If you can use multiple traits and styles at a table, why not allow us to 'merge' attunable stations with each other to combine actual sets to reduce the amount of tables we need to place and also allowing easier access in a single station for it? You'd still have to get the attunable station for each set and simply use one on another to combine and unlock sets until they stack all together, it'd still be bound and a permanent irreversible merge. This makes it not only less item space in a house but also more efficient and accessible to craft at.

There's nothing to stop a guild from having two guild houses. One purely for crafting and parsing and another for events like guild auctions and social events. Also some guilds share a craft house.

They can but it's not what I want. The whole purpose behind my idea is to help consolidate things so there's not a need for multiple homes and to not repeat a frequent request for bigger item limit than 700. This is just a solution to help guilds be able to utilize a single home as their center hub that should not require a lot of additional effort for their developers to add in due to it already existing in the game meaning Traits and Style can be accessed on any table as long as we know it. Why can't the table know sets if we combine them? It wouldn't ruin the economy and should be able to be added into the interface. It's a matter of being able to combine tables to unlock sets or keep them individualized.

The only other idea I'd have is to allow us to have a "guild" hub as a new update like other games. It basically allows guilds to have their own castle or hub or base that the guild can work towards together and fill it up, change layout, add extensions of new space, gardens, customize themes, etc. That's just a lot of work though and it's not a simple or viable quick fix to help guilds and crafters. Thus, allowing consolidation of sets to be combined into one table the way traits and styles are accessed is more viable for them to add into the game.

until that happens, though, EHT for portals is the way to go.

Only if people use EHT lol, to my knowledge I don't know anyone but housing people that utilizes EHT addon. It's a great tool don't get me wrong, I use it a lot myself but my friends always complain about how much lag it causes and the constant error codes and issues they get with it that it's become easier to not use it. I wish people did use it more.
