The Auction house is located just north of Town Square in Haven. It is a place where Knights can buy and sell items for crowns on the exchange market.

The Auction house.

Overview

Knights can search for offers by pressing the "search" button. The list can be sorted by time remaining, the bid price, the purchase price, variants, or by star level.

Placing a bid

Placing a bid, as well as an option to instantly purchase the item if possible.

To place a bid, select an item to bid on, then input a price you are willing to bid. If someone outbids you, you'll get a mail and your crowns will be refunded to you in an attachment.

The Auction Time Thresholds roughly equal to:

  • Very Short: less than 5 minutes (time is extended with every new bid)
  • Short: 5 minutes - 1 hour
  • Medium: 1 - 4 hours
  • Long: 4 - 24 hours
  • Very Long: 24+ hours

When outbidding another player, the minimum increment is 5% of the current bid rounded down to one significant figure if the current bid is at least 40 crowns, and 1 crown if the current bid is less than 40 crowns.

Putting up an item for sale

Placing an item up for sale incurs a Listing Fee. The Listing Fee is only refunded to the seller if the item sells. Withdrawing the item from auction or the auction expiring with no bids results in no refund of the Listing Fee.

The Listing Fee for a 4-hour auction is the highest of the following three values:

  1. Star Quality:
    • ☆☆☆☆☆: 5 crowns per unit
    • ★☆☆☆☆: 12.5 crowns per unit(rounded up; one 1-star item has a fee of 13; two have a fee of 25; three have a fee of 38, and so on)
    • ★★☆☆☆: 25 crowns per unit
    • ★★★☆☆: 50 crowns per unit
    • ★★★★☆: 100 crowns per unit
    • ★★★★★: 250 crowns per unit
  2. 5% of the Initial Bid
  3. 0.5% of the Buy Price

A multiplier is applied to the Listing Fee for auctions with a Auction Duration of greater than 4 hours:

  • 12 hours: 4-hour Listing Fee x 1.2
  • 1 day: 4-hour Listing Fee x 1.5
  • 2 days: 4-hour Listing Fee x 2


If the item successfully auctions, the seller pays 10% of the final selling price, and the listing fee is refunded wholly.
