Guild Wars 2

Hi,

after such an extensive change to a game mechanic, it is logical to ask free refund on the runes.

When the patch goes live, please place all the runes we have on the gear to inventory or mail to us.

It seems my 2xWater 2xMonk 2xTraveler is going to the toilet. Traveler runes cost 8 gold on AH, I am not ready to throw that away.

In every MMO after such a change, these items placed free to Inventory.

Or give us an option to pull these items out of the gear without destroying the gear.

And I will push my luck one step further, when you restore the runes, please place original runes to the Dungeon Armors, I have PVT armor from Ascolanian Catacomb I don’t want to grind there again to get 4 more Monk Runes.

A mechanism that would allow us to take out rune from the item would be really nice, even if it would cost a small fee.

Right now we have 3 options:
1 – Salvage the item to get back the rune
2 – Put in a different rune at the cost of loosing the previous one
3 – Get a new item and put the new rune there and then put old item to bank (thats what I do usually for new tests of gear but it costs a lot of space, especially if one has more than 1 character and likes to experiment with it)

Allowing us to take out old sigil/rune and leave an empty slot in the item would be the best solution imo.

There is a gem store item called the “Upgrade Extractor.”

The cynical part of me wonders if they introduced it prior to all these ex-post item changes specifically in order to make money off people fleeing from nerfed items, in lieu of implementing e.g. a free, across-the-board one time stat reselection a la Magic Find items.

hmmmm… some free upgrade extractor won’t be a bad idea
