Guild Wars 2

As the title states… WHEN ?

After the update, my tokens are only good for a single piece of armor/weap and Ill have roughly 100 left over completely useless because they don’t stack with anything that’s new/other char’s tokens.

So I get less rewards from doing dungeons ( heavily effected by that bug that gives you next to no reward ) AND the update makes my old tokens useless.
Last patch did no good.

I spent both sets of tokens on a single piece of gear. I think you’re tripping on nothing and simply haven’t tried spending them.

the only problem i have run into is that the old tokens are not useable by any other char but the one that got them. they say account bound now but i can’t remove them from the bank on my alts. the new ones after the patch work fine but the 1000 or so old ones are stuck in the bank unless i want to spend them on the char that earned them

what time we looking at for the patch Robert?

I think they’ve been patching closer to midnight PST the day of, so it’s more of a Tuesday patch for many.

As stated in other posts about the same subject, after today’s patch you should be able to

What do you mean SHOULD BE ABLE you guys did not test the patch??

“Should be able to” in the world of software development means that they have either reproduced the symptoms described in a bug, or found a coding flaw that would, in theory, produce the described symptoms. Either way, a fix has been developed which is confirmed by testing to remedy the situation. However, due to the scale, it is impossible to verify that every user is experiencing the same bug—two bugs could produce the same symptoms, and so if there is another bug about which they do not know, this fix may not address your problem.

What else could cause this? Data on your system is corrupt and two items have opposite appearances—for example AC badges and copper ore have the look and text swapped. You think you’re trying to merge stacks of badges, but really the systm thinks you’re swapping copper and badges. Maybe your symptoms resulted from localized network latency and you’ve been able to merge them all along.

I’m not saying these are the case, just that software, especially software that is written by 250 people over 5 years, is really complicated and sometimes, the bugs are just as complicated. Being exposed to this on a regular basis, developers tend to avoid over-promising, because if the system was complex enough to let one bug in, it was complex enough for two.

Good post Fily. Sometimes, people forget that video game developing isn’t a simple job/task

Did this go in? It looks like all the vendors take specific coin and nothing has changed. I see nothing in the patch notes, either.

Yes it went in. People aren’t talking about merging every type of token into one type, they are talking about stacks of tokens before they made them account bound not merging with tokens after the account bound change per each specific dungeon.
