Thank you for the exchange, mail and dilithium system additions.

These are some good quality of life changes. Thanks Cryptic.

These changes to the Exchange make it work like almost every other MMO's Auction House out there.

• Bought something off the Auction House, you almost always have to go collect it from your mailbox.
• Sold something in the Auction House, you almost always have to go collect your money from the mailbox.

Whilst I will miss the way it works currently, I believe these changes are for the better.

The Filthy Rich patch.

These are some horrible quality of life changes that make the trading experience massively worse. Please listen to the widespread feedback from traders who are shouting out about how bad this is. The patch has undone the previous positive quality of life changes that was done for good reason and put us in a worse position overall.

The updates that were meant to go live to the Exchange today seem to not be working correctly. We're looking into it, and hope to have some answers soon, although fixes may not go live without additional maintenance. Thanks for your patience.

Update on this: It appears that the Exchange is currently working exactly as it did before, so if you sell something and the EC would take you over the EC cap, you will not recieve the EC. We'll hopefully have this fixed next week or the week after.

Why are we not getting compensation for the 6 hour blackout where we could not get on game for console? Also what is the issue with the Temporal Scorpion fighters and the Chronogami console? Why don’t they work together?

I am a new forum member and do not have the ability to yet. I know I’m not the only person who has these issues. Anyone else able to report?

so now you can not use the exchange to transfer dilithium between characters if that amount exceeds your daily limit? If you sell zen, you can't withdraw more than your daily limit?

Serious question why be a trader in this kinda game in the first place.

Also why would they listen to the traders everything of the exchange (at least on PlayStation) is massively massively over priced

What do you think will happen if the traders stop crafting and stop selling due to the negative QoL impact of this change and the supply dry's up? The likely outcome is demand stays the same, supply gets worse and prices increase.

The change has already cost the devs money as some of us have voted with our feet and are no longer going to purchase the bundles we planed to this weekend. That's how bad the QoL change is, if the devs want to make QoL worse I will vote with my money and spend it elsewhere.

missmel

I don't think it's about supply and demand...

What are you actually spending your money on in game?

Occasionally I'll buy some keys and sell the in the exchange, but don't consider myself to be a trader

Shame they didn't do this years ago, I lost quite a bit of dilithium one day when the system withdraw more than my character could hold making the extra amount just vanish.
