Maverick wrote an article on how to price your items in the Currency Exchange. While doing so, he thought making a small article on how to buy items quickly could be handy.
Buy Items Quickly With Just a Few Clicks
To buy items quickly at the currently available market prices, follow the below steps:
- Select the item you want to buy in the “I want” category.
- Fill in the amount of items you want to buy.
- Select the item you want to sell in the “I have” category. This will usually be Chaos Orbs, though Divine Orbs is an option for higher quantities and more expensive items.
- The game will automatically fill in the amount of “I want” items at the current market ratio. This may not cover your full stock, however, so double the amount (no, this will not scam you, I’ll explain why in the next section).
- Click “Place Order”.
- Confirm the Unfavourable Trade Ratio warning.
Why This Method Does Not Scam You
The Currency Exchange always uses the most favourable available ratios even when you are offering a better deal. It will never give you more items in the “I want” category, but it may use less items in “I have”. So in this example, it will just buy items at the most favourable ratios until your order fulfills. It will return you any Chaos/Divine Orbs it didn’t use. This method doesn’t cost you extra gold, either, since gold fees are calculated on what you want to buy.
Who This Method Is For
Buying items quickly in this way is recommended for players who value speed and have plenty of currency. For buying heavily traded items such as Divine Orbs for Chaos, it also doesn’t cost you much. Ratios from players wanting to sell and players wanting to buy are very close together for those items. When you’re buying items that are traded for less often, your need for speed may cost you a bit more.
Selling Items Quickly
Selling items quickly is not quite as straightforward. If you are willing to deal with a little leftover stock, however, there is still a way.
