The Universal Currency Exchange Trading System proved to be an indispensable tool in Kieran's past. Although it had many limitations, it was a practical system that provided quality of life benefits. For example, if one was inside a leveling area without the means to reach an Auction House, the items on hand could be registered on the Exchange System's personalized Auction House.
However, although it was a separate entity, the auction was subject to the same fees that the Merchant Association's Auction House imposed.
When the public digested the information, the response threw many cities into an uproar.
"There it goes! There goes the illustrious pay-to-win option. It wouldn't be a true MMORPG without it. God, I just love the internet. Want me to open my wallet? Sureee, but there better be a damn good option," one of the players currently inside the Merchant Association exclaimed.
