Default Xunlai numbers decreased

I knew the economy was bad but gees, just went to storage in LA USA Dist 1, and found out they've laid off a few Xunlai members.

Now I feel bad for not getting the Xunlai rep his supplies back in KC.



on a serious note did this just change?

you should probably read through the update notes. storage is now handled by the xunlai chest, and extra chests were added in various spots around larger towns.

Haha. Corporate downsizing due to a way being found to run item storage without the need for a paid Xunlai representative at all locations? Gaming imitates life. I'm a bit sad really when I run up to a Xunlai Chest.

Nar thats abit like reading the paper or watching the news, seems to be bad news of late. And I'm sorry for posting a thread about an honest question.Next time I'll just make a thread about bots or skill nerfs and rage quitting

Aera Lure, I know what u mean.


Glad it's not Corporate downsizing; was gonna start a collection for them.

Man poor agents. They were always kind and helpful. Now they will have to become bots to make ends meet. Or sell their services as henchmen on the streets corners of towns.

And now that they don't have the numbers at storage, I keep getting pestered by random trade requests from Ling Ling and Love Moon Sun (Fake names)

Poor Xunlai guild, and lack of benefits and massive cutbacks. Have a good time at Dell tech support agents!

How long until we see "Xunlai Agents For [Hire]" storming the GvG Ranks? They have a lot of free time on their hands now.

When they moved the chests about, I wish they'd have moved the ones at Gate of Torment...

It was the +25 Armor Cap Nerf they simply went on "strike" or did a "rage quit".

I do find this quite odd that ANET chose to simply remove the Xunlai agents as I found them a fun visual aspect to the overall game experience.

Perhaps PvP players found them out of balance and therefore obsolete on the Island of Balthazar?

PvP Xunlai Nerf?

(c'mon you got to have a sense of humor out there in PvP land)

I'd be willing to fight alongside them. That's be an awesome guild.
