Gaile Gray.6029:

Players on the legendary journey for Astralaria III will encounter a bug involving Meteorite Ingots. Currently the recipe only provides 1 ingot, where it is intended to provide 25. We plan to fix that recipe bug as soon as we can.

If you craft only 1 Ingot before the recipe fix, all is not lost. After the recipe fix, you may speak with Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs in Lion’s Arch and choose the conversation option “I have misplaced a vital component for crafting my Legendary.” For a small amount of Karma, you will be able to purchase Meteorite Ingots in stacks of 5. Only 25 are required for this collection.

We wanted to let you know about this before all you legendary crafters run into the issue and as we said, we’ll get this corrected as soon as we can.

I just want to make sure you guys know, it is impossible right now to even craft 1 ingots. The Aurilium sheets required for the collection are not currently available. The NPC has the sheets showing up on his tab, but it’s lock, even with all masteries, T4 map, it’s always locked.

yes, ^^^ what this player said. ALSO the collection currently says (mouse over cosmic Mechanism) that you need 10 Meteorite Ingots.. not 25??? theres so much now in this collection that’s borked :[

Yeah…. We cannot even make one right now, Gaile. The blocking issue is that the Exalted Vendor does NOT allow us to purchase Sheets of Aurillium, which we need in order to follow the steps to make several collection items, including the Ingots.

Everyone finishing all their legendary weapons but the people that went for the axe are stuck with a merchant that is broken…

When the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing. Good effort, but ultimately missed the mark.

Oh. A-my. A-god. Thank you much, Gaile!

Uhuh, how much time is this saving from previous speculations? it seems a bit nicer now. Awesome

Yay thanks Gaile! And thanks for the communication.

Edit: Nvm just saw sheets of aurillium thing.

I’d also like to ask about the Vial of Condensed Mists Essence. I know we need 3 for one of the components, I think it’s the Imbued Mists Jar. Is there any way to make this less RNG based? I’ve been trying to get these vials for 2 days now and no luck. Would it be possible to make these purchasable for like 200-500 fractal relics? Or are they needed in other things, hence keeping the RNG element aspect to it?

getting those to drop was always a pain. In my personal experience since fractal was originally released, you are far more likely to get shards instead, but you can ‘break’ *globs down into vials. They drop on apparently levels 21+ now. I know it used to be about 11+ before hot changes. In fact, my first drop of mist essence was NOT a vial… it was a glob.

Yeah, apart from the sheets of aurillium thing (which has been fixed now – yay!), trying to get these vials is my next annoying hurdle. Not sure how long it’s going to take but it’s frustrating it’s all RNG based I don’t mind working my behind off, knowing I can eventually get the vials I need, but because it’s RNG, there’s no certainty or end-goal as to when I’ll be able to get all 3 I need.

I gave link on the globs that I was editing in lol. I’d just keep raising your fractal level if you haven’t, and see if globs drop instead. One of them breaks down into 3 vials, and they always had a better drop rate for some reason. Just trying to do it for vials feels almost like waiting on a precursor drop. Obviously not that difficult but feels that way.

One of them breaks down into 3 vials

Oo nice, didn’t know that! I’ve only really done a few fractals already (4 and 10 specifically, for the collection), so not sure when the globs start dropping but I guess I’ll have to do a lot more fractals :-/ thanks for the info!

great news indeed, also can you guys check the quartz vial not collecting the mega’s heart or its not 100% drop rate? thank you

Do NOT put the quartz vial in a safe box!

It will get ignored!

no, its in my inventory all the time, and i’ve done it 4 times and still nothing.. u.u, or do you mean in a special type of box, like fractal boxes?

safe boxes are special bags that prevent you from selling stuff to vendors. if you got one of those, make sure the item is not in one when you open the chest. The item gets consumed, so if it is in one, you get screwed over.

This is LITERALLY THE BEST NEWS I HAVE HEARD IN A MONTH OH MY GOD THANK YOU

I haven’t but I’m sure at least one person out there would have spent (very expensive) the materials to craft the Quartz Vial / Obsidian Magma Container / Mists Imbued Jar multiple times assuming they need to collect the items to make multiple ingots, will those people be getting some sorts of refund?

I’m struggling just trying to get the 3 vials of condensed mists essence :-/ lol

Sweet baby Jesus, i thought i would loose my sanity farming all that aurilium for the collection
*Breathes with a sigh of relief

So I’ve only just crafted The Device, but I’ve been following the bugs for T3 closely, and I’d like some clarification. Before, we had to create 11 meteorite ingots, which would take 55 days due to the requirement of charged quartz. As I understand this as now we only have to wait 5 days to craft 25 ingots? Please correct me if I’m wrong

Gaile Gray.6029:

This is great news! When I saw the price for a single sheet I could hardly believe we’d need 1.1k of those for 11 capsules. I appreciate the communication on this matter, so we all know it’s a bug and you guys are looking into it.

Thats right, you will only need a single Quartz Vial and thus only 5 Charged Quartz. The Vial is used to make the Ultrahot Sphere, which is in turn used to craft the Meteorite Ingot. You will now only have to craft 1 of each as the Meteorite Ingot recipe will provide you with all the Ingots you need

I craft 2 jars of myst for nothing … with this bug i lost 2 deldrimor Ingot , can you do something for this too ?
I know you can but do you want ?
I know you have hard work to do but with all these bug, I’m very close to giving up …

Don’t know where you got the 25 meteorite thing from. I had to use 11. 10 for one and 1 for another… And on collection 4 (where I am) you don’t need a single one.

Well… prime reason I say to go for globs, is I did earlier fractals repeatedly (again this was early 2013 but still) and the achieve for fractals done was over 100 before I had any mist essence at all drop. It was bad x.x but as soon as I started doing fractals higher, I was getting globs left and right.

So, the patch hit that fixed the recipe. I had made the ingot before the patch, but when i went to buy the ingots off hobb, they are not listed. Am I doing something wrong?

i banked the ingot and it now shows up and allows purchase.

I have to bank each set of 5 i get.

I crafted the quartz vial (collection III )
And killed the mega destroyer, I didn’t recieve anything from the chest that should progress and give me the Destroyer’s Heat

Yes I had it in my inventory

EDIT: Okey I got it on my 2nd attempt, wild guess is that my inventory got full when i looted. This time I had space. Might got something to do with it

I killed destroyer + opan chest 8 times with quartz vial in inventory, with 3 differents char with freee slots in inventory, without “hide bag”….
This vial is still empty, made a ticket in game, no answer plz help me last item missing for end vol III.

So, if ill craft all of those items i need for ultra hot sphere at least once, i can purchase another from NPC in LA for karma. Am I right?
