Proposed Improvements for the Trading System in Diablo 4

Posted on by

I’d like to address an important aspect that needs attention in Diablo 4: the trading system, or the lack thereof.

The game feels somewhat anti-social due to limited player interactions, absence of general chats, group finders, and underwhelming clans. To utilize the online-only nature of the game better, introducing a form of trading would be a valuable addition.

Here’s what I believe both players and Blizzard should strive for to ensure a balanced trading system:

1, Fairness: A fair trading system would allow players to sell their items for their desired price. To achieve this, the game should remove trading restrictions on items altogether. Everything should be tradeable – gear, potions, gems, crafting materials like Baleful Fragments and Fiend Roses, and even cosmetics such as horse skins, armor, and transmog items. However, careful consideration is required to prevent the system from being exploited for real-money transactions (RMT).

2, Effectiveness: An effective trading system must be convenient, fast, and straightforward. To ensure consistency, the Auction House (AH) could resemble WoW’s Auction House UI. This would include a search bar, item categories, and potentially affix filters to help players find items suited for their builds.

3, Easy to Use: The AH’s UI should be logically organized, easy to comprehend, and display the necessary information for smooth trading. Item names should be color-coded to represent rarity, and suffixes like Ancestral and Sacred should be clearly visible. Categories of items should be labeled to avoid confusion, and bid and buyout prices with remaining time should also be displayed.

For a successful trading system, my suggestion would be to reintroduce the Auction House:

Fairness: Implement a system where players can trade items anonymously to prevent third-party websites from interfering. This would also eliminate player-to-player (p2p) trades, including gold trades, to combat RMT. All gold should come from vendors or the AH to prevent price manipulation.

Effectiveness: Incorporate a Last-in, First-out (LIFO) system, similar to WoW’s, to prioritize the sale of newly listed items. The AH could also suggest item prices based on existing listings to prevent accidental low-pricing.

Easy to Use: Ensure the AH UI is user-friendly and logically structured, displaying all the necessary details for informed trading.

Additionally, to retain an element of personal trading among friends, the model used in WoW loot distribution could be adapted. For instance, items that drop in group play could be tradable among group members for a limited time. This would encourage camaraderie without significantly compromising the trading system’s integrity.

In conclusion, I appreciate your time in reading these suggestions. By implementing a balanced trading system, Diablo 4 could potentially offer a more interactive and rewarding experience for players, promoting both fair play and camaraderie. Your feedback and critique are welcome for further discussion.Other words, we recommend you the safest Diablo 4 gold in MMOexp.com, have a good try.
