Grand Auction October 6th 2018

Post by +Requiem »

This Grand Auction will take place on Saturday October 6th at 7pm Eastern / 11pm UTC.
A repeat auction will be held on Sunday October 7th, at 3pm Eastern / 7pm UTC.

A few things to note.
The daedric armor set will be available at the Saturday auction. There are 6 pieces to the set, and these pieces will also be available as ULTRA RATE drops from the halloween dungeon. The drops will be for a random piece, not the whole set.

There are also two weapons this applies to. The Daedric Sword, and Bloody Cleaver.

There are also a couple rewards (saw benches, picnic table) which might be made into carpentry bod rewards. We're not sure yet, but wanted to let you know ahead of time, so you set your budgets accordingly.

You can check out the things being auctioned by going into the gate via the Radio station east of Skara Brae bank

Quick question can I leave my gold as mythril bars and still use it in the auction? Or does it have to be in check form?

Can any thought be given to somehow allowing absentee type bids? While I appreciate this will probably add extra complexity to the process it may help players in different time zones participate in the auctions.

For my experience since playing here (about 2.5 years) every auctions has fallen on a weekend where I am working, adding to this the time difference, I think the auction starts around 3am my time.

Not a massive issue personally as I don't have the mega gold from farming 24/7, just thought there must be more then me in different time zones.
