I bought the permanent pass and not having it available on any character makes it completely useless. You can not park a character in there because you get kicked out every time you log out and having it in the bank makes the point of having it in the first place completely moot. If it were infinitely redeemable we could just hold one on each character.

I concur. The whole idea is to bypass (often contested) places with a bank. So every chr. needs to have access instantly.

Good idea, or an account bank character bag every character can access

Waitaminute, the pass only applies if a character is carrying an item?

That is absolutely absurd. The ‘pass’ should have been a one-use consumable that gives all your characters permanent access to the Terrace. Making it an actual item is ridiculous and as the OP points out, negates much of the convenience it is supposed to provide.

I haven’t checked the Gem Store but I really hope this is CLEARLY explained in the item description in the Store before you buy it. Judging by the post of the OP, it sounds like this detail is not explained. I really hope this is not yet another example of ArenaNet not communicating clearly with their customers and not providing critical information within the game.

If anyone needs to research how this thing works on the wiki or whatever to get a clear understanding of how it functions then this is a problem that should be fixed. Adding extra text in the Gem Store description is NOT that hard. Heck, adding a whole paragraph describing how it works is not that hard and better than leaving players guessing.

Sure one can argue people might not read a wall of text, but not reading would the customer’s fault rather than not giving them the information in the first place. And if any item needs a wall of text to explain how it works, then it should be re-designed to make sense.

(The fact that you get booted from the Terrace when you log out is also not helpful at all.)

i agree, make it a permanent withrawable, OR an acc upgrade with a neat little button that reads “teleport me to the terrace” in the hero pannel. on top of that it could use more convenience like dungeon token salesmen and trait resetters..

Name another item, not skin, that you can withdraw multiple times? I can’t think of any.

I just bought one and I am so mad. It’s not TRULY account bound. This item should be one-time used to make my all characters be able to enter. ALSO, there should be some kind of [Royal Terrace Waypoint] uncontested for every player who used the pass. How can I feel the convenience if I can enter the royal terrace only with ONE character carrying the item? I have 8x 80 lvls. This is so bad. Please ANet, please change it

Come on it’s 1000 gems, I bought them for real money. You don’t expect me to buy 8000 gems, really? :|

Frankly, this item should work exactly like the Hall of Monuments stone, IMO. If you have a permanent pass in inventory (AKA the first time the character goes into the Terrace) then have one of the vendors in the Terrace “sell” an item for 0 copper that works exactly like the perm Royal Pass, but requires you to have the perm one already in inventory. This way you’ll need to put the real pass onto a character the first time they go to the Terrace, but after that they can keep the voucher in inventory at all times, which for all intents and purposes (double click to teleport, allows entry) works just like the perm Royal Pass itself.

If this functionality were included, I would instantly snap up the permanent pass, until it’s there, though, I’m gonna pass on the pass.

I agree, one of this should happen:

- make it like HoM stone (being able to copy the item infinitely),
- or make the pass one-time use and add Waypoint.

Yeah, a little unhappy at the results for 1000 gems. I was planning on parking all my toons there as well. Very disappointing.

Already posted my own topic on the suggestions area about an idea of creating a new sub category UI page for account bound services items such as trading post express, royal terrace pass etc. that’d work similar to the way PvP finishers UI screen works.

You consume an item and gain uses appropriate to the item that you consumed (permanent upgrades give infinite amount of uses, single use items give 1 use etc.). Then you’d use the item from the UI, just like how you select PvP finishers or how you withdraw achievement point reward skins.

Would be awesome. But yeah overall I agree that infinitely redeemable pass or account wide upgrade by consuming the item would be great ideas

So park all your tunes at the bank in DR and it’s a free WP to get there from the Royal Pavilion when it tosses you out if you dump the glow stick of destiny in that bank.

I echo those sentiments. I bought it and assumed all my characters would be able to go there…

I bought one.

It’s not that bad maybe because I got used to the permanent bank where only the character with the item could access the bank.

HOWEVER, they need to serve snacks and light refreshments to make it really veep. Showers and a sauna would be nice too.

Agreed. All the NPCs need to be wearing tuxes as well.

The pass definitely needs to be infinite on all characters. A new button on the interface would be nice.
