    Why were the vendors completely removed for this change? That's where I get most of my tradeskill items from.

    this blows. Same here - I use those vendors ALOT. Poor little magus is going to be overloaded now and since that is also where you pop out from your guild halls they have created mass lag with the players trying to sell her stuff too

    "Fixed the issue where an angry eqgame.exe process would hang around in the background after exiting the game."

    This makes me curious. What process is this and why is it angry?

    and

    "Quests with rewards that will result in a lore conflict will now return your items."

    Thank you.

    Is this a typo or what was wrong with the chest recourse?

    Just going to get out in front of this issue before it happens.

    I hope you have tested to make sure that having a lore item in the shared bank doesn't cause handing in all but the lore item to cause the NPC to hand you back all your items AND the lore item that you did not hand to them.
  10. Slasher Augur

    please put the vendors back in. Why would you remove them ? Now everyone in the GL will go to the magus and that will create massive lag. You need people to have other options to go to.

    Please put the vendors back in. They’re one of the most highly used vendors in the game.

    Many of us are requesting these NPC be left in game. What would be the reason to remove them? Just cause they no longer sell the stones? BS

    IIRC there was a similar issue years ago that an NPC was going to be removed but due to forum outcry they left him in the game. Do we need to get a "save the guild hall vendors" movement going?

    Please reconsider this

    Unless your replacing them with parcel merchants?
  13. Velisaris_MS Augur

    Assuming it's not some sort of coding bug that automatically removed them when the stones became useless, this kind of change is just another example of people who don't play the game making decisions for the people who do.

    I would wager they got removed because soulstones are the only thing those merchants sell outside of what is sold to them. Guessing that once they had no items on them it was decided that they are no longer needed though it could be an issue with merchants that sell no items.

    It would be cool to turn those former soulstone vendors into copies of Caden Zharik - small inventory and parcel....

    Which is why I suggest that maybe it's a bug based on the way the coding is set up. If it's NOT a bug/coding issue, then the decision to remove 2 of the 3 vendors in a high population area is just idiotic and demonstrates how out of touch the devs are with the player base. They could just change those inventories to something like an NPC in a newbie area (water flasks, iron rations, bandages, etc.) instead of just outright removing them.

    It is a bug because they might have removed a vendor that sells no items and would only have what players sold in the future? If anything it sounds like a design decision not a bug and I am sure there would be bug reports with people noting that the vendor had no items on it on a server up.

    Mayhaps the Werlikanin's have a relative that could bring solvents to the lobby too.

    It is the holiday season. Time for relatives to gather together and bring gifts.
