First of all, NO this is not a complaint/rant/rave regarding the current economy of the servers or the game in general. It is actually an open invitation to come out and view one of the facets of the economy of Harvestgain that regularly helps players sell/buy top end items (along with some random/fun items of no real gear value).
Once every 4-6 weeks we have an open chat auction held in NW MP. It has yet to NOT generate a portal storm warning in MP, and along with showcasing and selling some of the best loot items people have found over the past month or 2, it's also a great social time to shoot the breeze with your fellow players.
A few things you should know...
1) As a visitor to the server your odds of buying any top end gear are low, but you'll see PLENTY of items sell in the 5-35 mmd range
2) The event tends to run 4-5 hours depending on how many people participated and added items, but there are breaks built in and each new "section" of the auction is announced in /cg, /ct, and /lfg for those who only want to buy very certain items
3) The auction is announced a week in advance and a mule is parked in MP to accept items as people drop them on him. It helps to have an auctioneer who has a very solid reputation on the server, as people are handing over their top of the line items to you and trusting you to sell them. A "Master List" is then posted 12-24 hrs in advance of the actual auction
4) The actual undertaking of tracking all the items sold can be rough, but if you play in windowed mode or are quick w/ pen & paper it's no big deal! I just write down the names of all the sellers and add a check mark + mmd amount for each item they sell
If you're interested, please feel free to stop by NW MP of HG Saturday night any time from 7-11:30 pm EST and take a look. The event is always a great time and you'll regularly hear people on the server planning to build/finish their suits or weapon sets or unload the cream of the crop 5-6 items from their mules/storage at the Auction.
The most recent Auction page (along with Rules, Info, & Master List) can be seen at https://www.asheronscall.com/en/foru...l-18th-7pm-EST
Thanks, and hope to see some new faces there!
