They said the only action that continues to invoke the longer response time at the lower threshold is canceling an auction. The following day, these changes were “ significantly relaxed.” This appears to be in response to the community outcry. Players without these addons cannot keep up in the market with players who use them - but then, players who don’t use raiding addons can’t compete with those who do, either. The addons quickly scan the Auction House for certain items, looking at prices, keep track of what items go for, quickly buy items that are under-priced, and create auctions. Players who use these types of addons do have advantages on gold making.
Even if it isn’t, at that point four seconds isn’t going to seem too long. For those who type in what they are searching for, buying, or listing individual items, twenty-five actions within the set time limit is more than enough. In other words, if you were to look up the price on ten lowbie greens for transmog and then list them, you’re almost at the cap before you start listing cloth, herbs, or enchanting mats.īlizzard confirmed that this change was intentional, and said that to the majority of players, this will not matter. An action in this case means searching, buying, or listing something on the Auction House. Reloading, re-logging, or waiting a few minutes would then reset this, but again only for twenty-five actions. However, after twenty-five searches, each search started taking four seconds - a significant difference. At the start of that session after the change, that’s how long each search took as well. That was a typical search time, prior to the day of the change. What is the change? The logs showed that while using an Auction House addon, searches on the Auction House normally took about 300 milliseconds each. This was questioned in the Blizzard forums, and received a response from a Blizzard Community Manager, explaining this was an intentional change to how the system worked. This change went in without any announcement or being listed in patch notes. Specifically, affecting how many transactions can be done within a short period of time.
On June 16th, 2020, it was discovered by players - and confirmed by Blizzard - that there was a small change to the way that the Auction House works in World of Warcraft.
