Let's Break Auction Houses Before EE

I mean, other than there aren't any auctions in them....

All that stuff in your vault that you'll never use before the wipe and EE starts? Put it in the market for 1 copper each! It doesn't cost anything so even your town bound alts that never looted a copper in their life can do it.

Market use has suffered serious atrophy from the beginning. So being good alpha testers that made it to the end (and in the spirit of breaking stuff!) lets load up the market system with as much inventory as possible and see what happens!

Then for extra credit start using all that currently worthless Abadar credit to buy things, then re-list them again. You know like a bustling market full of inventory and transactions. Maybe we'll find some goblins in the code for Mark.

Remember, when time is short and and everything is about to go black except for the absurdly bright JJ Abrams moon, still IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO BREAK THE GAME!!!!

Actually these cost 1% per item for sale and then 5% on the actual sale (minimum 1c for each). If you do not have copper, there is no entry. ( I have 2 charters who have mainly been gathers, refiners who have trouble listen what they build. Thanks to games after Rottter's one now has over 1 sp. And he has a lot of herbs which will go up on Talonguard.

Au contraire mon friar. This is alpha you can't go around assuming things, that makes an ass out of u and... ming, and what did poor ming ever do to you?

My penniless dwarf who has never lifted a softwood club in combat or ever had one copper of coin or Abadar credit in his life put an entire pack full of +x goods up for sale in Keeper's Pass. Sin did the same with a couple packs of goods and Abadar credit never went down by a single copper.

If you're listing items for one copper each, at least for now it costs nothing. We climbed on top of the banks now let's blow up the auction houses (then rebuild and rename them "Market" because that's what they are).

Ming has a reputation for being Merciless. I'd be careful making an ass out of him.

66 out of 80 sales slots used in Talonguard! Everything from starter weapons to Tier 2 raw materials to Apprentice's Ward Gel +2.

That's the spirit!

I'll be loading up Rathglen after downtime today. Remember your stuff is getting wiped soon anyway and it costs 0 to list at 1 copper so (other than time to get it there) it's free to help break the banks.

With more time, I've been seeing the benefit of an assault on two fronts. The first is get as much stuff into any bank as you can to stress out that whole region of the code which it seems like we're starting to do.

The other is an all out frontal attack on a single vault. See if putting so much into a single vault causes stuff to pop out the windows, or boring strings of code or something. Empirically the Rathglen vault seems the best candidate for that. I call this: Operation Whatever the Opposite of Bonnie and Clyde Is.

You are right, but earlier I was not allowed to post some sales.

Lots of mineral, herbs, some crystals, recipes, and crafted items (focus or holy symbol) in Talonguard.

More later.

Dumping stuff into Rathglen myslef. Have some Tier 2 woods in there as well as spells and recipes.

I have moved just under 500 items in and out of the market since I posted this. It sound like you all are building momentum behind it too, spreading the sand around the box.

Let's hope Mark saw the title of the post and was paying attention :).

Has anyone had trouble or lag in any of them?

Lots of herbs, minerals, hem[.wool, pelts, irons, … in Talonguard.

I haven't had any issues. I did notice that while scrolling through the AC, the sections with less items moved much better than scrolling through sections with a lot of items (such as the recipe section being slow compared to the raw material list).
