The inability to trade with friends is NOT stopping the gold sellers. Trading between friends should be open to everyone. Period.

It’s really sad to think that 99% of the community of this game is being affected by so very little bots (i don’t mean there are few bots, but they represent nothing but just a small portion of the players).
IMC, please, look onto this while the players are still testing the game. If you take too long, you’ll lose a LOT of your playerbase.

just make it so recieving silver from the marketplace is instant, and put a 2 ~ 3 day cooldown on very large transactions / sales (10mill silver+)

IMC really needs to see these threads, the trading restriction is a serious issue that needs to be addressed very very soon or they will loose a large amount of players. Trading with friends is a basic feature in a mmo and a part of the social experience. its not something that should be restricted. And the current status of the AH is horrible too!
I also loved the way we could set up shops, i want too see that feature return aswell!
We gotta keep making noise about this so IMC see that we aren’t content with the way things are currently!

They need to reconsider the trading because it’s lowering the enjoyment when playing with other people. A large part of the social interaction has been removed, and a gutted version appears behind a payment wall and it’s a small tape on a large problem this game has.
There are so many of us who aren’t having an enjoyable experience because there’s no trading. There’s also no vendors, only a copied auction house on broken stilts but that’s a different issue.

I just think it’s funny, if you make a goldmaking class like an alchemist, it’s completely useless. they should just take those classes out of the game if we cannot trade.

They should just bring trade back. So classes like alchemist and others wont be useless.

I think u guys are forgetting something far more serious , your team storage !!! I’m trying to understand how in the hell they got in that format, really 1 slot ? not only that you cant even pass silver from your main to your secondary character, and worse if you want u give your nb character a better weapon not only cost 1 potential it cost 1 trade of those 30! REALLY!!!? THAT TEAM STORAGE NEED A FIX URGENTLY!!!

The worst part for me is that I am pretty much forced to NPC items that I know people would find useful. I’m a swordsman and I play with my mage friend - often when we party, I’ll find a staff or him a sword. But we can’t give it to each other. I don’t need a staff, I’m not going to waste my single auction house slot so I have no other option than to sell it to the NPC which is frustrating when I know my friend could make use of it. It gets even worse with more valuable items - we were farming a shield together from the Big Red Kepa - he got 2 and I got 0. Instead of being able to just give me his spare, we had to keep going until I had one myself. Took an hour.
The trading restriction, auction house restriction and poor loot distribution methods would all be forgiveable on their own, but combined it is absolutely terrible and pretty much turns it into a single player farming experience. It really feels like they’re trying to drive out the “multiplayer” aspect of MMORPG.
At the very least there should be some method of item sharing / loot rolling within parties.

It hasn’t been forgotten dont worry (or i sure haven’t forgotten it, i’ve written about it in other threads), its also something that IMC needs to improve upon, it should absolutely not take one of the 30 trades. Why should putting something in my own team storage count as a trade?
The system they have going on for trading, storage and AH right now is the weirdest system i have ever seen in any MMO! Its very anti social if you ask me, since it doesn’t reward people for playing with other people which is weird for a mmo to do! its punishing its players rather than rewarding them.
There is also a petition on reddit now also, its one of those change.org ones. So i think people should try and go over too sign that one.

Yes. So much agreement.
I found a cool blue staff that my brother , who is a mage, might use. Then I remembered… oh wait, I can’t trade it, because for whatever reason one of the biggest parts of an MMO is gone.
In CBT I had fun trading gears around with my friends, “hey did you find a mace? can I have it? I’ll give you this sword!” and in turn we helped each other!
Now… well… I have to NPC things I find that my friends might find useful. I have no reason to keep a look out for what my friends might need, a social part of playing an MMO and one I find enjoyable (I like taking care of other people…must be why I’m a cleric). Instead I am forced to SELL THE ITEM because it isn’t useful to me and I have no way of getting it to my friend other than wasting my one MP slot. All because IMC can’t think of any other way to deal with goldsellers other than to punish THE OTHER 95% PLAYERS who are actually trying to play the game.
Being stifled by this trade bullpoop to combat gold sellers is NOT the right answer. Honestly I had complained in CBT about how antisocial the game was with scarce quest items/monsters (hey glizardon) making everyone fight over them and KS each other, but this whole trading shenanigans just brings it even closer to “massively single player online rpg.”

Seriously, I started playing this game with my girlfriend and we are really upset about this. Everytime one of us drop itens to the other it kinda feel very bad to know we can’t change itens and help each other. This restriction sucks, and it’s no even close to be effective

That’s exactly how me and my bf feel about it too, its really putting a massive stopper to our enjoyment of the game. And we have been looking forward to play this game for along time, we played RO together and really wanted to play this too. Not being able to give each other weapons, gear or help each other farm for mats is really bumming us out.
Not to mention that this trade restriction really doesn’t put a stopper to what the developers are trying to stop, there are still people selling gold and there are still bots. So its only hurting us players.

Imc should remove the trading and sharing restriction. Don’t let a few bot screw this game.

Trades between players are available as long as you distinguish yourself from a bot (by buying a token), who would otherwise sell silvers with ease and thus ruin the game economy / give advantage to cheaters / prosper and proceed to flood the shout chat infinitely.
I am utterly against allowing trades without tokens.
IMC is doing a great job at keeping bots unable to make profit and they will soon be gone for good.

but you can’t trade silver in the first place. So there really isn’t a reason why trade should be behind a paywall. Even the token has a restriction on how many times a month you can trade with other people.

I have played other games that restricted free players from trading, but the 30 item limit on the token really hampers friendly play. Trading to your other characters taking up those trades seems kind of ridiculous, not sure how that contributes to the model.
