Guild Wars 2

I just found some more old Tournament Tickets in my bank and when i went to the mists , the vendor wasnt there. Did they just take him out completely or did they move him?

I traded in tickets before when the vendor was standing next to the tournament master but he were nowhere to be found now…

I’m wondering this also, got quite a few tickets that I had forgotten about sitting in locker. There was no word in any of the patches about his removal.

The tournament tickets awarded virtually even if you did exchange them.

same here !!
have around 200 tickets – i want my chests !! !

Are you guys serious?.. It was there for -ev-er..
It’s been annoying me forever since I still use the lady to que..

10/10 would get trolled again.

Yes i am serious !!

If they would at least have said that they gonna remove the npc, i would have traded my tickets.

Also, you know, there might be people who did not play the last few month, they have the same problem…

It’s somehow the same with the recent karma change.
Of course you could use your stuff right away – but i like to pile up stuff and then use it when i fell like it.

whatever it’ll be your hedge if paid tournaments ever comeback and they decide to use the tickets..

Yeah, he vanished all right. I have about 50 tickets I’d like to exchange.

If you don’t have enough chests l2p. Then QQ about the fact you have too many chests.

Seriously.. too many chests :/ chests everywhere.. Im tired of clicking em and disenchanting…

Can we get like … presalvaged chests?.. my fingers are tired man..

This^^

Can we just get dyes instead? Nothing but dyes?

Coin wold be nice since there is no way of making gold (if your a pvp only player)…
my guild has changed server and i am stuck since i need about 40g to rejoin them…

Oh man I just realized the vendor is gone too! Please bring back! I didn’t use all of my tickets! Really gonna suck if that vendor is gone permanently..

You know, everyone’s like “no gold for pvp, pvers will come to get their easy money”, so why not just rank lock gold rewards.

R0-10 → no gold
R10-20 → low
R20-30 → med
R30-40 → high

Same with achievements.
People are like “no, pvers will come to get free achievement points”
Rank lock, problem solved.
Easy achievements low rank 1-10
Mediocre achievements, 10-20
High reward achievements 20+

So if they want easy achievement points they actually have to play the game.

Hey guys, just wanted to add my support ticket reply.

In my ticket I mentioned things that those who are concerned about had mentioned.

Me: "I just noticed today that the NPC that used to exchange tournament tickets is no longer there. I have 145 tickets that I have not felt the need to exchange, only to use when I switch to a new character to PvP on. So I did not use them.

I hope this was an overlook but worse case, is that you have removed him without warning or notifying the community.

A bit like the karma rollback and advanced warning, would have been nice. I hope that this will be put back or have admin personally exchange the tickets on my character to chests. I’m sure there are people who are still not aware of that the trader was limited time only.

I read the forums on a frequent basis. I’ve subscribed to twitter tweets and facebook. So this is one thing that I’ve not seen mentioned. No patch notes, no advanced warning and considering this is personal and not economy breaking, I hope it’s brought back by whatever means.

Please consider adding the NPC back temporarily. However if this is just a bug, then I apologize.

Thanks for your time."

Unfortunately, we do not have any information available about the NPC who exchanged Tournament Tickets. However, we frequently update our official website ( http://www.guildwars2.com ), and we encourage you to keep an eye on the site for announcements and updates about the game. Another resource that you may find of value is the Guild Wars 2 Wiki ( http://wiki.guildwars2.com/ ) which is a player-created resource with a large amount of helpful information for players.

Me: "The NPC was a merchant who stood next to the Tournament Master. He offered silver or gold pvp chests in exchange for the obsolete tournament tickets. He no longer is in that spot, either removed intentionally or bugged.
What should I do with the 145 tournament tickets that I did not use because I was not told or warned about the removal of the NPC?
Should I wait for a fix or get a direct exchange? "

Reply: "Thank you for contacting Guild Wars 2 Support.

Tournament Tickets are no longer used. I would suggest holding on to the tickets in case the NPC comes back at a later time. Unfortunately, we cannot perform a direct exchange for your ticket as this is a service that we do not offer.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Regards,"

Conclusion: Ideally, warning would have been great but things do get overlooked on both sides. I didn’t really feel compelled to use the NPC so I guess that could be considered my fault. And they didn’t feel the need to tell us, which can be considered their fault.

Being a frequent reader of the forums, patch notes etc, this is the first time this has me stumped. I’ll hold on to the tickets but I think this time I won’t hold my breath since I guess it’s not as considerable as the karma rollback.

PS: Re-reading my actual ticket, I realize I do sound a bit harsh, in which I apologize. But I do care about the tickets

Treat this as information and not a blame game.

Any update on this? I just got back to the game and have 70 tickets on my locker. Would really appreciate a Dev reply.

There was a dev post about it a couple of days ago.
