Guild Stores

Released August 4, 2014 - PC - Patchnotes

Before this update, players were not able to dye their gear, but with this update dyes were released and brought a variety of possibilities to the game. At that point, only gear was able to be dyed, except for shields and weapons.

This update also brought 122 guild traders to the game. Up until this update players could only buy from the guild store at the bank and only from the guild they were a part of. With this, players were able to purchase items from other guilds, as long as they were able to win the bidding for the guild trader.

The delves in Coldharbour were revised and doubled in size. Prior to this, delves were simplistic in nature, consisting of a one-way loop with little to no variety.
