Guild Wars 2

I wonder if Molten Pickaxe’s usage or sale for “time limited” on BLTC pls?

It’s perm once you buy it. But it won’t stay in the shop for ever.

I’d guess it’s limited since it’s molten themed

Anything that is themed is just here temporarily.

It is most likely the sale itself that is limited, not the item.

Anet put really weird tooltips lately. On one side it says “account bound” and on the other side “soulbound on use”.
One side it says “unlimited use” and on the other side it says “limited time”…
ANET pls put clear tooltips.

Umm if they tried to pull that, making the unlimited use only work for a certain amount of time, i’d be entirely done with this game.

What the item in question says is:

Recovered from the Shiverpeaks, this dredge tool has unlimted charges and the same efficiency as an Orichalcum Mining Pick. Available for a limited time only.
Account Bound
Soulbound on Use

That is exactly what is says in the store, and I would say that it makes it quite clear that it will:
1: Work forever
2: Only buy ble for a limited time
3: Is accout bound
4: Will get Soulbound when equipped.

I really don’t see what is unclear.

Yup, seemed pretty clear to me as well. Like i said that would be the ultimate taboo to put an item in that only worked for a limited time.

Maybe you are right but still You are filling the blanks for your mind. It says “it’s available for a limited time”. Available for what?
I’m just saying it’s not a quite clear tooltip.
ie: gobling banker. It has unlimited use but also limited time use.
I hope i made my point.

It is available from the store for a limited time.
Just like all the other content specific items (Halloween, Wintersday, Lost Shores). All these have had limited time store items, and the only thing that happened when the time was up was that they were no longer buyable.

Oh comon, you know exactly what ‘available for a limited time is’

Now you’re just picking on Arenanet for the sake of it.

What I’d like to know though, is until when you can buy the Molten Pickaxe.

I’d so demand a refund if the pickaxe only works for a limited time, lol.xD

Probably until the end of the current Living Story thing.

Looks like a pay to win item. On the other hand it costs 22.3 gold worth of gems. You could buy 557 orichalcum picks for that.
And if a new ore better than ori comes out it will be obsolete.

Oh please, it’s a convenience item. I don’t see anyone else getting rich off of the traditional pickaxes.

It would be pay to win if it was better/stronger/could do other things than items available in-game.
That is not the case.

Untill May 13.

Gee people, you are lazy.

Def not pay to win in any respect. it is not cost efficient and not mroe powerful than normal items.

you would buy this for the, in my opinion, awesome visual effect when mining with it.

I bought it because I’m lazy and like the convenience. I didn’t even know about the extra animation until I saw it. It is a nice plus, though.=P

For a number of us, when we first checked the front page that was not posted. And usually some dev-type makes a post announcing they put it up but so far they have not

Gee some people like to make assumptions :p
