The last few times I’ve purchased these reagents from the tailoring vendor, I’ve been charged for more than I received. I’m not rich—I have too many characters—and I usually can only afford to buy one or two at a time. It’s very frustrating when I want to make my ascended materials and I drop 15 silvers only to receive NOTHING.
At first, I thought I was going crazy, thinking maybe I wasn’t keeping track of my coin right and didn’t have enough to buy the regeants, or some other issue. Today, I had 36 silvers. I spent 15, went to the crafting table, and couldn’t make any ascended thread. I checked my funds, I had 21 silver left. I bought another stack, I had 6 silver left (well 5.99 silver) and I checked my inventory, I had 10 reagents. I threw all my crafting mats into storage (not that this should affect anything) and I still only had 10, could only make one batch of thread.
15 silvers might not be much to some people, but I usually have barely enough to WP to where I’m going to grind for materials. If I have 1 gold, I feel positively rich. I bought the game on release, even if I barely started to play it seriously, and I’ve put more of my real money into buying upgrades, additional character slots, bank, bag, and crafting expansions, and the permanent harvesting tools. I like the game. I spend entirely too much of my time, and clearly money, on it. But bugs like this can prove very frustrating.
