Guild Wars 2

So this is rather annoying, and it happened to me infrequently enough that I didn’t care since it was never more than a few silver, but recently it keeps on happening due to some of my spending habits, so I figure I might want to address it somehow.

I haven’t been able to get screencaps of the dialogue windows, since I didn’t really think to do so since it last happened, and I’ve been careful to not waste my money since then, as well. I’ll fabricate some numbers to give you the scenario: My armor is mostly damaged and partially broken for one reason or another, I go to my friendly local armor repairs person, they tell me it would cost me 1 silver 5 copper to fully repair my armor, and it shows that I have 1 silver 20 copper, which I indeed do if I were to check my inventory outside of that window. So I click “Alright, Fix me up” option. Which then leads to the fellow taking however much coin he said it would cost me, not repairing my armor, and bringing up a dialogue window saying “Sorry, doesn’t look like you can afford the repair cost.” So I’m left with 15 copper in my inventory and damaged armor (on some occasions I think some kind of repair took place, since I recall a damaged piece going to being fine but the rest were still damaged. In any case, I should have been fully repaired unless they’re just displaying the wrong prices)

This gets rather frustrating especially when I just spent a moment selling off some junk or some materials to get just enough to pay for the repair cost, and then the fellow decides to not actually do what he’s supposed to.

As far as other informations, I believe this has taken place on other characters of mine, but I know for certain it’s happened multiple times on my Norn Elementalist, with various armor repair folks in many places. If it matters, the world I’m on is Ehmry Bay

Sounds like the repair costs would of exceeded the amount that was shown initially, and the price shown is the price required to partially repair some of your equipment.

If that’s the case though, then it should have taken all of your available funds to repair whatever damage it could.

Seems bugged to me regardless though, since the method I mentioned above is not a type of repair system I’m familiar with in GW2.

Yeah, it’s quite confusing, I might be misremembering the part where there was any partial repair, since I’m going off of vague memory before the repair attempt and looking at the armor after. So it very well might have just done absolutely nothing and taken my gold.

Just so you don’t feel so bad I accidentally bet with a Charr NPC and lost most of my silver one night in one bet. Be very careful when NPCs mention money in their dialog.
