While i was doing the new Aetherblade path in Twilight Arbor, at the first chest i get an Account Bound version of Nightmare Dagger!
It’s salvageable and also Account Bound even after i use it on my thief.
I’m pretty sure that’s a bug ‘cause i’ve never heard about dungeon weapons as a drop from their own dungeon!
This happened to someone else or am i the only one with this rare weapon?
Let me know!
Cheers!
If you have time to do it, I really recommend reading the patch notes with each release. Lots of good information on changes is included in these.
Kinda funny you say to read the patch notes then don’t actually read this persons post. He didn’t say he got one of the new Weapons skins he said he got an ACCOUNT BOUND version of a NIGHTMARE weapon. I really think he needs to post a screenshot because at this point I don’t believe it though.

Interesting attack on my post.
I did read their post. In my reply I made no comment regarding their claim to it being “Account Bound” or of the bug they were reporting. My post was a clear response to the latter part of their post where they stated that they had “never heard about dungeon weapons as a drop from their own dungeon”. My response was pointing out to them that they do now for this dungeon with these new skin variants.
Now, I could have responded to their bug report, but I did not have information of others experiencing this issue and the OP did not include a screenshot.
edit
The rest of my post outlined a possible cause for the issue which has now been shown to be incorrect due to the OP’s report being corroborated by fod.
Not really what you’re describing StinVec. Same thing happened to our group, one friend ,on looting the first boss chest, informed us that the chest dropped a Nightmare weapon, which he proceeded to link in the chat. And no, it was not “the new rare Nightmare skins” as the linked weapon was clearly one of the Nightmare weapons normally sold by the vendor. Apparently we can either get the old Nightmare weapons from chests in the new path or this is a bug.
Ah, thank you fod. You’ve now backed up the OP with another report of this happening. This is what I was initially waiting for before responding on the issue with my thoughts as they may not have been relevant to the bug. I was hoping for others to corroborate the situation outlined in the OP before I made any speculations on a possible cause.
They ended up being way off the mark, but I had decided to voice those ideas while I defended myself from the personal attack made upon me. Oh well. I’ve now edited out my incorrect analysis of the issue from my earlier post.
Moving on.
So the issue is just as was outlined in the OP, that Account Bound Nightmare Weapons of the standard variant seem to exist in the loot table for the chests within the new Aetherpath of TA, or at least in the loot table of the first boss chest.
The question waiting for a response from a dev is if these account bound weapons being in the loot tables of those chests is a bug or is it actually intended behavior that was not mentioned in the patch notes.
