What I mea...@ Yeebo You can use them to list stuff. What I meant is that listing stuff is a bit pointless. You can make 17g in about 20 minutes as often as you want on free alts. So no point going mad listing stuff like Palladium on the broker (unless you're comfortable spending a lot of dollars in which case just sub).<br /><br />If you did find the Shiny Sword of Shininess you'd probably get more plat selling it on the server forums than selling it on the broker.<br /><br />So while you can list stuff for sale it's not remotely needed.Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-74262853008888655532010-09-01T21:35:51.590-07:002010-09-01T21:35:51.590-07:00Thanks for the head's up on the new update.

It's not a restriction for me because about all I ever store in my bank are gathered items and the odd ability scroll or recipe book I'm not high enough to use.<br /><br />I may update this post once I've had a chance to mess around with the new stuff tonight.<br /><br />@GreenArmadillo: absolutely, buying bags is a lot quicker and easier. However, I tend to have a hard time motivating myself to keep my gathering up on a character that doesn't craft anything. I've already got tailoring and scrolls covered. I guess I could go for jewelry instead if bags really are dirt cheap on the broker.<br /><br />I did not know you could put those in your house, that's a great tip. And thanks for the heads up on that gathering quest, I'll keep an eye out for it. 17g at level 5, holy cow.<br /><br />@Stabs: interesting, I thought you could use them to list stuff as well for some reason. I'll definitely clarify that later if true.Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-74613528780559164892010-09-01T14:27:03.691-07:002010-09-01T14:27:03.691-07:00Fwiw, I think the Broker tokens are essentially Bu...Fwiw, I think the Broker tokens are essentially Buy tokens. There are many other methods to sell including the auction channel (if Silver), guild, and apparently a player market somewhere at Mara.<br /><br />What's more with the 17g quest gold is pretty broken.

By contrast, you can complete the first two steps of A Gathering Obsession and have enough gold to broker a 40-slotter on day one. <br /><br />Also note that the free intro housing has two additional bank slots, which can take any bag (including the harvest-only box). Seems like a good place to stash stuff that you don't feel like throwing out (e.g. T1 common harvests) but don't want to store in your limited personal bank space.Green Armadillohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564045048380177626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-33559744052363862142010-09-01T13:31:27.308-07:002010-09-01T13:31:27.308-07:00Also, I should point out, we have several gold-lev...Also, I should point out, we have several gold-level players in the guild.Ardwulfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612113439848252327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-92139528068977568142010-09-01T13:30:31.095-07:002010-09-01T13:30:31.095-07:00You can, far as I know, store plat in the guild ba...You can, far as I know, store plat in the guild bank with no cap.<br /><br />The big box from the early gathering quest is only for harvestables.<br /><br />News item snagged.Ardwulfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612113439848252327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-13965834384878431462010-09-01T13:28:32.069-07:002010-09-01T13:28:32.069-07:00My understanding is that any gold past the cap goe...My understanding is that any gold past the cap goes poof once you reach your limit. I assume it all counts whether it is on you or in your bank<br /><br />Whether gold in the shared bank counts towards this limit or not I have no idea. For that matter, I'm not even sure you can put gold in the shared bank on a silver account. I haven't tried it. <br /><br />I totally agree, bags would certainly be a top priority for purchase unless you want to make your own. You can also get an enormous box (36 slots I believe) for your bank for free by talking to the crafting trainer in the starter areas (the guy that sends you on a gathering quest).Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-57233897386274750602010-09-01T13:15:39.296-07:002010-09-01T13:15:39.296-07:00Out of curiosity, how does the gold cap handle cas...Out of curiosity, how does the gold cap handle cash that gets put in the player and shared banks? Or is that feature disabled in EQ2X? <br /><br />I'm strongly considering a bundle of broker tokens. With 10 tokens, I could buy a stack of cheap handcrafted 40-slot bags for my 2 bagslots (3 if/when I go silver) and a Mastercrafted Weapon every 10 levels til the cap. In principle, I could try and befriend a gold subscriber and get them to make my purchases for me, but I might be prepared to pay $1.50 for convenience.Green Armadillohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564045048380177626noreply@blogger.com
