Trader’s outpost update

Toomuchwork2do · January 21

Hello! Not trying to be a beggar here but would it be possible to update the traders outpost with more relevant materials to purchase please? For a while it was fine but now that mysterium is the primary reward from side quests it would be awesome to get an update. Currently the only useful items (imo) are the t6b and t3a selectors and maybe the iso. Kind of weak for a core content reward.

Just a request! Don’t hate me 😂
Please and thanks!

Nobody will hate you for a reasonable request we've all been wanting. There aren't any good rewards in the Trader's Outpost, and it should really be updated since it's basically the only thing we get from side quests.

Upgrading rewards in a timely manner ? We don't do that here.
Only late enough when the new updated rewards become obsolete 1 month after. And let it rot for a couple years. Then repeat the cycle.

This would be funny if it weren’t so true

Was waiting to make the 1-Year anniversary post for the mysterium store ironically but hopefully they update it before then.

I just claim mysterium over the limit most of the time because I really couldnt care less about the store in its current state.

I don't mind the current one, used to complain until I started spending t3a and t6b like a maniac.

So T6Bs, T3As, 7 star crystal shards, and mats to rank up your relics are all just trash to you? I mean, I agree some of the stuff is useless, like the 6 star crystals, but why say "there aren't any good rewards"? It just makes the complaint seem melodramatic.

But you'd probably be happy if they added T1 dust though, right?

Normax_X · January 21

almost every store is long overdue for an update, it took years to get the sigil store update and bg store id be surprised if they change anything else anytime soon

Realistically if they were to buff the trader Post… what would people like to see exactly?

Herbal_Taxman · January 22

Higher limits on things that are useful for valiants. I’d like to get more seven star shards, especially. I end up buying a bunch of stuff I’ll never use in order to stay under the 50k cap.

Not t2a in with a selector of t6b/t3a for one...
I don't need anywhere near that amount of t2a they offer. I really don't need t2a at all anymore and if I did, I could get it from the glory or bg store instead of being forced to get it with the selector and it going into my overflow with the other 50 sitting in my overflow.

I’d be very happy, but I doubt @KabamPinwheel would ever let that happen

t6cc shards and full t5cc would be nice
If it’s in the other stores I don’t see why it can’t also be in this store… ratio the quantities to match the difficulty

I would like the main changes to be:

1. Better ISO acquisition (7-Stars eat up the ISO). also, Selectors are good but I hate spending 5 minutes selecting the class I want. Maybe they need to look into counters where you can just scroll to how many of each class you want, then click open.
2. 7-Star shards limit increased or it's own option.
3. Trickle in a few T4A shards.
4. After 9.2 is released, add 7-Star awakening gem shards.

This is mostly from the Valiant perspective.

Why are you worried someone might think you've a beggar? Why are you worried you'll be hated for having a perfectly reasonable request? Is there a particular behavior you've seen from some users that makes you feel like this?
I'm sorry you don't feel safe to contribute to the forum without the expectation being mindlessly attacked without reason.

The thing about traders outpost is that the rewards were underwhelming even during the release. And that’s because it’s not a separate entity, it’s coupled with the other rewards you get from the side quest every month. So it’s not 1k 7* shards a week in kabams eye, it’s 12k 7* shards a month (8k from side quest and 4k from traders outpost) and it’s 12k million gold a month. Before traders outpost most of these rewards were normally acquired through a side quest, such as the gold would be a path reward or a milestone reward rather than something you buy.

I don’t imagine the store being updated until they actually decided to add a valiant level, but would be nice.

Kerneas · January 24

Yea, an update would be nice.

HOWEVER, let me say this:

There are some rewards that are interesting for laidback players. Even as a Valiant I like to open my weekly 6* featured and buy out the gold&ISO offers. It would be a bad idea to take them away and straight up replace them IMHO. If there is a change, I would like it to expand the offers rather than replacing them.

Elux · January 24

Im over loaded with t2a t3a t6b from these over 300 6* sig stones now im at max with t6b t3a t2a going into expiration

startropics · January 24

the trader's outpost in demotivating but i hate but that guy but wouldn't you rather want any new rewards funneled into a new EQ? just think of it as a trader's outpost buff but in EQ.

DrZola · January 24

Short term fix would be to shorten the timer or increase the max purchase amount. I do like grabbing the T3a/T6b but it is starting to feel too little and too infrequent.

I think reducing the price for the bundles should be the easiest fix, from 8000 to 6500 or 5000 to 3000 or so.

Reducing the price by itself won’t do anything. It should be combined with increased purchase limits or shortened timers.

Great comments and feedback everyone! Let’s hope @kabam reads this and considers our opinions ☺️🙏

This sums up a lot of the issues on the forums, bit sad really.
