Store interface?

Please, please, please, make it, well, more logical. Enhancement have their own names, but are still sorted according to corresponding TO/common IO name, if store sells more than 2 origins/level ranges they're sorted by that first, they're usually color-coded, but sometimes they aren't, and some DOs all have the same icon, to make it more confusing - even Wentsworth's is easier to use.

Why not to make them either custom-sortable or searchable (so tjhat you can type, say "power of" or "Endu" and get to Power of Grey right away instead of scrolling...)

Agreed.

At least stick some filters in there. By Origin and By Type ones would make the RWZ vendor a lot less annoying for one (as well as Ghost Falcon although these days I mostly ignore him for buying)

Damn pain to have the lvl 35s and 40s together and then the 45s and 50s I hadn't realised they sold 45s for ages as I happened to be the first origin on the list and expected them to be together!

surly the easiest thing would be to have the shops use the WW/BM interface

Oh sweet Jebus no.

I've a special rage-filled place in my heart for whatever idiot designed that interface.

It's so bloody clunky.

Easy is not for the jedi.

Or, as my wife would put it: Just because logically it would be easy, does not mean that the implementation with computer code would be easy. In fact, it might be more complex, prone to bugs and harder to use than what we have now.


The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise. ; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

I find it hellish.

And for some reason the damn "Price" field where you post the price you're charging for your Salvage (5 inf in my case) doesn't automatically gain focus any more when you drag Salvage / Recipes into the Auction House. When you've 30 or 40 items you're trying to sell this is pretty irritating.

It's like the person who designed it was from 1985 and hadn't heard of such good ideas as hyperlinks (so with one click you can click on a piece of Required Salvage in a recipe and be brought to its listing so you can easily bid on it) or rudimentry things like Favourites or Browsing history.

Excretable.

Aye, the only problem I have with WW is it's speed, but given what it's doing it's pretty good.

Cant say I've come across the "focus" problem i do like the idea of being able to navigate to salvage by clicking on its entry in the recipe that would be very handy as would the ability to view what you have stored at the vault.

Maybe they could combine a reworking of the store interface with a upgrade to the market interface as i do think it would be nice to unify the different shop interfaces.

Any kind of interface that is sortable by chosen field ( level, type, availability ) would be great ... *especially* if such an interface could be ported to an item that acts as a "storefront" to the SG enhancement storage.

Having spent a good hour resorting the bins the other evening, a point and click interface would be amazing

Most of Auction's interface clunkiness is really because of three huge windows you have to open simultaneously (Salvage inventory, recipes inventory and auction itself.)

Wentsworths-like interface would work much better for common enhancements and inspirations, because you can fit all the needed details in just 1 window and they aren't interlinked in complex ways like recipes and salvage are. Not that it's perfect, mind you, nor it could be easy to re-use the code, but it wwould work MUCH better than standard store list.
