Trade, market, storage and guilds
The social side of the economy has arrived: direct trading between players, a market that works while the seller is offline, per-account storage and guilds with their own storage and chat.
Why
An item that doesn’t circulate doesn’t make an economy. But a badly built trade becomes a scam, so the rule was that the client only asks, and the server checks and moves everything.
How it works
For a trade, tapping another player in town opens the invite. Each side builds its offer, and any change unlocks both. After both lock, there are 3 seconds of review with no active button, and only then do both confirm. The two accounts are saved together: either the whole trade happens or nothing changes. Everything stays in a log for 90 days. XP tomes, star essence and equipped pieces can’t be traded, and an account under 24 hours old or without a level 20 character can’t trade, to keep bots out.
At the Market building you list an item at a fixed price. The item is held, the buyer pays even if you’re offline, and the gold lands in your account with the 5% fee already deducted.
Storage has 100 slots per account, up to 300 by buying with gold, and it’s the way to move items between your own characters. A stored piece can’t be equipped, forged or sold until you take it out.
Creating a guild costs 10 thousand gold and takes a name and a tag. It holds up to 30 members, split into leader, officers and members. It has invites, a message of the day, a guild storage (everyone deposits, only the leader and officers withdraw) and chat with /gu.
Next step
Real stalls on the town floor, once there’s art for them.
Changes

New room kinds: farm (wild animals that respawn, gather nodes, team revives instead of failing), legend (weekly boss, needs 2 players and a level, phases with summons and flooding, linked roots, aura cycling with reflect, damage only from given reactions) and explore (Wednesday and Sunday, 10 waves of 10 elites per rotating theme, 20 s pause with free swap, reward per wave, 10x chest capped at 2 per opening, ranking and a global announcement). Two more dungeons (Caverna Gelida, Bosque Uivante), four legends and the explore themes, all in data with their mobs, loot and portals.

- feat(client): farm, legends, explore and city service panels
