Trader's Tender

Community General Discussion
1

I’m not sure about other people’s thoughts on this, so I figured I’d post and gauge what everyone else thinks…

Every month we get a new array of items in this Trading Post, and there are a lot of things and the price of many of them is very steep when you only get a certain amount per month.

It’s either you have to forego getting all of the things you want in the hopes that something better comes up next month, or potentially miss out on next month’s offerings.

I, personally, feel like we should still get Trader’s Tender for completing objectives, even after we’ve hit the end of the monthly “cap,” which gives the big reward. Last month I kept going and had so much of this Adventure Guide complete, but of course, I didn’t get any credit for the majority of what I had completed as far as Trader’s Tender was concerned.

This month, I’m going to miss out on a lot of things I’d really like to have, as I’m nearly at cap, and I have only 195 left presently.

I just think this could be tweaked a bit. Having these objectives are great because they get you very involved with different aspects of the game, but I’d like to be rewarded for continuing to complete these tasks…

They don’t want everyone to be able to get everything because they will be reusing a lot of the assets on the trading post as it’s too expensive and time consuming to constantly make new things every single month to put on there.

This only tells me you’ve overspent your TT on things that you hardly use.

I’m still stuck with over 4000 TT. There is barely anything worth buying, IMO. The only way I’ll dump my TT is if THE DEVS ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION AND CREATE MORE MECHAGNOME CUSTOMIZATIONS.

Until then, most of the stuff I see is ugly retextured xmog.

I would like to see tenders being earned at a reduced rate after the initial 1k, maybe 50% or even 25% the usual rate.

Don’t buy everything

I’m at 7k and buy everything I want each month

i am at 18k tenders and will spend like 2-3k on the hallows eve traders if there are more good one like the scourge back mog

Yes exactly. Because things rotate in and out. It’s not all new stuff. And eventually, there may not be any new stuff or very few new stuffs.

No we should not. This is a chill side thing as a login rewards system. It’s not meant to farm. It’s not meant to have a boatload of Tender. It’s meant to keep you coming back every month and have an end so that people don’t try to see it as a chore.

It’s called FOMO dear.

That’s TP in a nutshell, working as intended.

That’s not the best example. That was a limited event, not a type of login rewards system. And it was absolutely possible to get everything. Bronze was a very easy acquisition and could be endlessly farmed.

I understand what you were trying to get at and I totally agree when it comes to the Trading Post, though. You are correct with that.

collecting all of thos items was not something someone with a normal amount of time was capable. i know some people had that kind of time but it entailed farming a ridiculous amount of time. but yeah my point is. just cuz its there dont mean you have to get it

Can you freeze items for when you build up enough tender?

13

Originally that was true

Then they buffed bronze rates a ton and made the raids easier and it became very doable even with minimal time spent a day

I do wish we could get everything, but then the choices would be mostly meaningless.

We can’t get everything, but we can get a lot and even save that one thing for later (I just bought one such frozen item 7 months later).

I love “bad” months lately for this.

They totally could redesign it to make everything available each month, then people would complain they’re forced to clear the adventure guide.

WoW’s main issue, as always, has been the lack of self-control os its player base.

Ah okay thank you.

I think he is referring to the weapon mogs which were random drops.

You could only get them all with an enormous amount of grinding and quite a bit of luck.

Luckily for me, I didn’t want any of it other than what had already dropped.

Pick the stuff you like the most, and do without the rest. There are about ten items I would have chosen this month if everything was free, but I ended up only purchasing my top three choices becase I either knew I would not use the other items as much, or they were just too expensive.

For example, I really like the gator mount but, it’s ground-mount only and way overpriced, which means there are better options.

It’s incredibly easy to earn TT and spend one day out of the 30/31 days of the month to browse the menu.

I would hardly constitute this as FOMO.

That is exactly what TP is dude.

OP just proving that very point.
