World New Bank Features

So, I know that the new banks have just been released with the dungeons and discoveries update, and they're amazing! Thank you to all those who put the time and effort in to create such a good quality-of-life update (and discoveries!). Now, I'm not sure what other features are intended for the newer banks, but considering they weren't added in beta, I'm going to assume that there aren't any major changes to them planned to be made recently. If there are, sorry for this post haha...

Basically, I think that the new banks could benefit from some other features, the two main ones I will talk about here. If you agree, feel free to give feedback and that sort of jazzzzz.... Thanks for reading!

Idea #1
- Bank Sorting
Add another button on the right side of the GUI which says "Sort Bank". By right clicking it you can toggle the sort mode between none, level, and type. When you left click it, it will sort your bank pages. This will rearrange items so that they're more orderly. If you click it while none is selected, nothing will change. If you click it while "level" is selected, it will sort all of your items in order of level, so your lowest level items would clump together on the first page, then the moderate to high level items following. If the items don't have levels, they'll just go after all of your items that do have levels, in no specific order. If you sort your bank while "type" is selected, it will clump items together based on item type. This means wands will all be in one section/clump, and same for other armor types, powders, quest items, and then misc. items.

Idea #2
- Bank Shops
I'm trying to keep this as simple as possible, but I think most players agree that it would be super useful to have ingame shops rather than having to rely on the forums only. My idea is to add another button to the banks GUI. When you first start out the button will say "Buy a shop" with a price under neath. When you left click it, it unlocks more for that button. From then on the options will be "Left Click - Clicking items in your bank will add them to your shop" and "Right Click - View your shop". When you right click to view your "shop" it simply opens up a GUI (multiple pages maybe?) that shows all your shop items. If you hover over an item it says the name, the stats maybe, and then it could add "Right Click to remove from shop". This will make it disappear from the menu. If you left click the original "add to shop button" from then on when you click an item in your bank it will add it to the shop. Note, it will not remove the item from your bank space, it will just add an additional one to your shop. This is so players dont use their shops for extra storage. Now that you can add and remove items to your shop, players should be able to see them right? To do this I propose a new NPC in 1 major city of each province. For Wynn this would be Detlas or Ragni, and in Gavel it would be Cinfras. I feel this could help to get even more player interaction since people would be in these cities even more than usual for trade :D. The new Shop-Merchant NPC, when right clicked, would open up a GUI, similiar to bank pages, with "next page", "previous page" and "search" options. Each item in the GUI represents a player shop. I think it could be a good idea to only show shops of people who are online, so you know who you can trade with right then, but that's just a possibility (and probably a bad idea if I'm saying it!). Anyways, when you click their shop it will open up their shop GUI and allow you to see if they have any items you want. If you want to trade with them, you can just ask them ingame. I'm not sure what order the shops should be sorted in, maybe most viewed, or most items, or recently added items, I'm not sure. The search button will be very useful. When you "Left Click" the search button, it toggles it between item and player. This allows you to toggle between what you'd like to search for. When you "Right Click" it prompts you to enter something into chat. If you have item selected, it will ask you to type in an item you're looking for, and then open a GUI showing shops with those items in them, which you can browse freely. If you have player selected, it will prompt you to type in a player name, and then it will open that player's shop.

Those are my ideas, please don't kill me if they're bad and genuinely try to make me feel like shit, just say "hey, maybe not the best idea" or something... Thanks!

 

Don't know about the first one, but the second one would be very useful. You could do it so there is a search function as well. That was probably the intention tbh. That way it means you can sell things much more easily, maybe even have a system like eBay so you can have a buy now thing, so the first person to make an offer gets it but it's a pre set price, or an auction for better items.

 

Haha, did you actually read it though? I literally described how the search function would work. Thanks for the feedback!

 

I kind of scanned it... oops I must have skipped that part first time.

 

Haha, no worries!

 

Idea 1 72%: This would be incredibly hard to pull off, while it might be useful, it seems more accident prone as well.
It's the kinda thing that would mix all your builds up.

Idea 2 89%: Sorely needed, would definitely help the economy.

Presentation 84%: A little wall of textish, but the ideas are still separated so that's good.

 

For idea 1, I know it could be hard to pull off, and overall wouldn't be worth it really, I just thought it would be useful ;). And if you don't want your builds mixed up, take them out of your inventory, then sort, and then put them in. I see your point though.

Thanks about idea two!

For presentation, any suggestions on how to make it better? I'm more of a content before aesthetics kinda guy.

 

Paragraphs

 

It’s never enough for you, is it? ;)

 

Nope! Things can always be better no matter how amazing they already are. Wynn is already great, but who wouldn’t mind these things? (Mainly idea 2)

 

I do like idea 2, if done correctly. I don't think it's much of a priority though.

 

Lol I mean nothing is a priority when looking At something like Wynncraft, with so many planned features already existing

 

Well, updates such as dern, expansions etc are obviously more of priority. Things like that need to be done first. I do very much like the idea though :)

 

Sure why not

Meh, why not but meh

hmk money sink

The stats yes lol, if only the name you can just think this is the one you want while its not (and for customers obviously stats are needed)

Yes! I wondered if you would think about it while reading :p

Why not the bankers?

Detlas, its the trade city

Meh, people will still be there 24h to talk anyways :p

Why not, but there would still be afk people to annoy...

Why not a feature that when you click an item it makes a little sound to the item owner?

We should probably be able to choose, but all of those seem easily abusable :
Views : As soon as you are top 1 everyone will just look at it and you'll stay top 1 forever
Most items : People will just put random items in
Recently added items : Let me put this depressing spear *adds* , oops nevermind, don't want it to be there anymore *removes*, nvm I want it to be in *adds*, etc etc

Didn't really understand :/

Meh they are pretty good imo

However, I do like it on the forums are way more stuff are able to be changed and made greater
For example (and one that would touch me much) the Mythic Emporium would litterally go dead lol, I cannot just take everyone's mythic, not in a problem of trust (even though maybe) but rather that the owner might not be here while i'm actually putting them to be sold, or maybe I have to go off and he couldn't log in again and he could've had a really good offer :/

But also, it would probably be soooo hard to pull off...

And yea, while its good, I think the forums are preferable, i'd rather get dern than Idea 2, while its actually good and not just for the ME but rather because it allows to get pc's by others easily, or see that someone scammed someone else :
For example :
Jpresent is selling a max ws Stratiformis
Salted comes in and says "Hey, I buy this off you for 10LE"
Jpresent is wow'd he never thought he could get that much out of his purple named bow...
But then a Hero by the name of spahK comes in heroicly and says "No Jp, don't get scammed! its worth much more!"

Tadaaaaaa

Well there's still ways to avoid the unknown hero by the name of spahK like conversation or right away PM, but someone may warn anyway

Also, if some want the story in its entirety :

Spoiler: The story

spahK after warning Jp, makes Salted run away and says to Jp "I offer 11LE" and that's how spahK got a max ws starti kids

Anyways, if it is a possibility in terms of time and code, why not to idea 1 and 2, if the 2 doesn't replace the Trade Market and the beautiful shops (we won't be able to get any shops like romzy's with idea 2 D:)

Also add to polls :
"Idea 1"
"Idea 2"

A like and a yes by me, great job (but try making it less look like a wall of text)

 

Only reason I said maybe for stats is cause idk what data the server can handle but ye idk

Bankers not because it’s be weird to have it in the GUI at detlas but not other areas imo

Afk detection

The sound would be bad cause people would spam it and generally just annoying and not helpful

It wouldn’t market if ME dies since players can sell mythics way easier ingame

Scamming can still happen as it is now. Just educate yourself and don’t be stupid when making trades.

Who wouldn’t want Dern over this?

I’ll work on presentation

 

Quality bump incoming

 

I will grade this later. For now, I like this.

 

Forgot I’m supposed to bump these things

 

I reckon you list items for a price, and then if you search for an item you don't have, you get presented items that you can buy.
