I know what everyone is thinking. No, it’s not the content. No, it’s not the market or the players. I’m taking a break because of a dumbfounded mistake I’ve made recently. I, after several weeks of farming gold, began to research my next set of equipment for alternative builds. After tallying the cost, I found that I could afford my entire set and have enough money left over to buy transmutation stones to use the appearances I wanted.
However, the Black Lion Company appears to have no “okay” button after exchanging gold for gems. As a result, I’ve purchased double the amount of gems effectively going broke in the process. It feels like a huge oversight to not have an “okay” button as the Trading Post (using the same browser and UI images) has an “okay” button after any purchase.
I don’t want to commit to farming again in such a short time after the last grind, and I don’t want to spend all of the laurels I’ve accumulated over the months on unidentified dyes for the slim chance of getting a few dyes worth enough to make that gold back. Instead, I’m going to wait it out. I’ll let this mistake of mine pass. So a warning to any first-time buyers of gems: only press the button once. You’ll thank yourself later.
Has anyone else run across a small part of the game that feels like an oversight or a small feature that could be added to improve player responses?
