Grey Market - Undershard: Great Area, but an empty Tease.. and not a market.. 06/22/2008 08:55 AM CDT
as a n00b I like to read the descriptions and explore the looks of things. Undershard is a coooooooool area..

The neat part is that the Grey Market is supposed to be this place where merchants come from all over and speak in different languages and sell many things..

BUT..

Their is not even one crappy merchant in the Grey Market..

some examples of the room descriptions building up the Hype to his area..

"[Undershard, North of Well]
....Sounds of enthusiastic shouting in many languages drift down the corridor, as if some sort of festival is taking place."

or..

"[Undershard, The Grey Market]
...The Market itself is a maze, the crowds making their own paths from vendor to vendor."

or

"[Undershard, Access Corridor]
...The relatively dark and quiet vault to the south is overcome by sounds of parading and shouting to the north, where some sort of bazaar or festival is being held."

Yes some festival down there.

What a cool area to make one full of neat merchants and place to buy with Stalkers and Thugs around? Brilliant possibility.

Why not have a merchant like the one in Horse Clan at the Ranger Store.. but he would rotate out a large pool of fest gear. Lots of fluff, some weapons or armor, and very large and random selection that would rotate quickly. So you would have to wait around and get backstabbed by a Stalker. Would make shopping fun.

Idea anyway.
