Guild Wars 2

I’ve already filed a support ticket & bug report (in case this was a bug), but during play over the weekend I somehow went from having around 1,150 gold to 988 gold without making any significant in-game purchases.

The only currency-consuming activity I did do this weekend was:
* Pop a couple of stacks of Elder Logs and Mithril Ore on the Exchange (literally a couple – maybe 2-3 stacks, at just above current asking price).
* Use my copper-fed salvage-o-matic to salvage 10-30 items at a time, about 4 or 5 times.

Neither of the two above actions should have cost 162 gold. It’s annoying, but I don’t really care about getting the gold back, but I want to make sure if there is an issue here that it gets fixed.

Has anyone else noticed any unusual currency discrepancies in their account over the weekend?

Just went and check my Bank/Wallet…all seems good. Whilst you wait for a response from the CS Team, you might consider clearing your GW2 cache and/or a -repair of the client. Instruction for both found in the Knowledge Base accessed via the ‘Support’ link and ‘Search – Repair or Troubleshoot Trading Post’.

Good luck.

You havent put up any buy orders for anything gold is taken for that aswell.

When you play the demo, it takes a snapshot of your current gold, gems, etc and it freezes at that for that character only. If you aquire more gold etc on other toons it will be normal. Hope this helps.

The loss of gold was observed on a regular character – not a beta one. And although I did do a bit of trading (according to the BLT History tab, I listed 2x 250 Mithril Ore at a just-above-asking-price cost). My actions wouldn’t equate to such a significant loss in gold, from what I can tell.

I was really hoping there may have been some other observations of gold loss – I’ll just have to keep watching my balance and report anything else I spot out of the ordinary!
