Recipes without registered output item

A while back I posted about recipes that create items which item cannot be retrieved from items end point. Here I have 3 more which is happening since last week

Item 72307 Recipe 10940 GuildConsumable
Item 76527 Recipe 10638 GuildConsumableWvw
Item 70982 Recipe 11695 GuildConsumable

The above 3 items does reports 404 (no such id)

Also Item 63366 does not have a name however description says it is an exotic level 60 upgrade component “Double-click to apply to a piece of armor.”

Regards.

63366 I think was a superior rune that got bugged. Wasn’t that the Revenant Rune?

Those recipes don’t produce items — they produce guild upgrades (indicated by the output_upgrade_id field). The output_upgrade_id field can be resolved against /v2/guild/upgrades to get the details. There’s an open issue for this since it’s kind of a mess, but I didn’t want to break existing applications so that field’s been left in for the time being.

63366 was a rune that got cut prior to HoT shipping, but wasn’t actually removed from the game (and you could buy them on the trading post and stuff). I’m not sure what the plan for the rune was but I suspect there are still some instances of that item floating around.

Thank you for reply, I wasn’t aware output_upgrade_id is added to recipe json. As my program does not concern about guild items, I can safely ignore all such items.

As for items that are removed, isn’t it easier to just replace them with a similar item in all inventories? Wow is changing removed items to value less dust and not ashamed of doing that either.
