I dont know, if this is the right place for sharing a suggestion or not, so don't get me wrong if i am wrong.

I would like to suggest you to add guild buff sharing area, where the offline members can put their buffs in the area, so when they are offline and someone needs them immediately, can grab them from there.

 

its an amazing idea. i hope everyone likes it

Not a bad idea. Anyone in your Guild who is willing to use stam just buffing their Guild members while off line.

Could be something they may add. In the future. ATA :P

How long is offline? Don't get me wrong it's a decent idea but you cant have players who quit have their buffs in this market for the guild to have access to free buffs forever. This would kill the buff market already established. 

 

I would suggest rules and regulations. To deter abuse.

 

Examples

1. maximum 1000 stamina daily

2. have been online 24-48 hours ago

3  buffs granted do not go forwards guild bolster medal

No. Join a more active guild or just... uh, buy in the Buff Market?

This would kill the regular buff marketplace.

I heard the same about my wicked prices.....  But they pay my rent.

 

And sometimes a buff I need just isn't on the market at any price.  Rare, granted, but if there's another venue, why not?

Is this that much different than a guild pack mule full of composed pots or gear?  Don't such things impact AH pricing and sales?

I can't tell you how many times I have clicked Buy Buffs in the Buff Market. Only Not to get the Buffs. Because the seller had no Stamina left.

I would Never want to get rid of the Buff Market. But it would slow buying down a lil bit for big active guilds.

You cant have players who quit have their buffs in this market. Is totally acceptable. I was thinking something along the lines of like 24 hours. At the most a week, but I can't see for everybody else going for that.

Agreed....

And when your guild has a dead period? There are times only me and smiley  for example are around.  Now she has most buffs, but sometimes even she just appears to be here.  

 

The OP certainly doesn't want to replace the buff market, and if reasonable limits are emplaced, what's the harm, really?

 

For now, when I can't find an EoC buff on the market in the dead of night or a guildie on that has it, I'm gonna come pester you, OK?

We already have something similar called Composing =P

For real now, and way easier way to do it would be:

- Add a 'tag box' on your Buff Market preferences called "Free for Guild members", that way everytime someone buys your buff from the Market they will not pay you anything, I would be 100% in for that idea.

But that way to buy buffs from offline guildmembers is WAY more powerfull than you imagine, it would be way too good for GvG guilds for exemple.

I think this would be redundant ..use the buff market.. if i see a guild-mate in the buff market I try to support them...and guild-mates sometimes  refund me my gold....... "sometimes" :)

Hey.

A nice idea but there'd have to be a ton of safeguards and to be honest, there are potions in the AH, Composing and the Buff Market. This would negatively impact all of these. For those reasons, I don't see this being implemented.

Any chance to make that happen?

That literally is the same concept of a guild buff market place

I never have a problem getting buffs through the mean's that BG mentioned... Guild mates offline maybe they should of stockpiled some guild reserve composing pots if that fails check out the auction house for regular potions if that fails check the buff market place if that fails heck buff yourself. I just can't justify this it will just ruin everything mentioned.

Yeah, everybody missed my point....   Suffice it to say not all buffs have such common availability.   Some are IMPOSSIBLE to get in ANY potion form and I'll never be a high enough level to buff myself.  If it's not available at any price in the buff market, all I have left to do is hope a guildmate is on that has it?   Well, people don't stay on 24/7,  so I'll be pestering some of you at or near EoC for the rare buff I can't find by any other means....
