Note:

On a serious note, this is a picture of a bug I’ve been having for a few months. For some reason, these story chapters have been set to this totally affordable price of 4,294,967,295 gems at some point and stayed that way ever since.

I have contacted support. But thought I’d share this for the lulz.

Yup, when I saw this number I was like “Hey I know this number!”

Why is the red text of the numbers so much blurrier than the rest of the image?

Maybe for the same reason that the background behind the numbers is pixilated…..

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

So now they have even turned buying things from the Gem Store into a grind or Hardcore Goal. :P

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

Compared to buying all the mats for crafting a light armor chestpiece it’s actually not that bad and some of the achievements were quite fun. Two of the chapter 7 ones were (rodeo and don’t get trampled) and all the chapter 8 ones (except for it’s all about timing, which to solo requires fire elemental powder and stalling strategies to ensure the circle stays red) were. Chapter’s 6 and 5 too (except for the better red than dead, that one took too long and the second from last was easy once you understood the mechanics)

I only did 5-8 but still, you earn that coat so I won’t call it “free” but the time and money saved is good.

Edit: Lol I looked at the picture! Yeah that is funny if I had that many gems I’d easily buy every upgrade, a couple thousand keys (which should round out to around a quarter of a million), all the vanity stuff, convert a million gems to gold, buy a scythe and a couple of legendaries, max out my storage of t6 mats and lodestones (should be 2,000 each with max storage capacity for mats) and save the rest for exclusives.

Hmm.. Let me do the math.

4,294,967,295 gems needed

8000 gems cost $100 USD

You would need to place 536,870.911875
8000 gem orders, surely getting the attention of any reputable credit card agency out there. For the sake of accuracy, let’s say you can buy the exact amount of gems you wanted even though that method is currently not possible in the game yet.

To unlock this episode, you would need $53,687,091.19 to play this episode, before tax. Sounds pretty pricey to me.

Huh? You said it’s a bug you were having that you contacted support about. Now it’s a friend?

Video and graphic compression, especially JPEG compression, butchers red colour ranges harder than others on lower (70%) quality ranges. You can tell from the grain around the letters the JPEG encoder is set to around 70%. With PNG or BMP this wouldn’t happen ;-)
