Guild Wars 2

In the SAB, when activating a dig spot or opening a chest, I receive 0 baubles, despite the counter appearing above my character’s head indicating the number of baubles.

In chat there is no indication of baubles received (ie: You receive 58 baubles), and there is no change in the number of baubles in my inventory. Additionally, no icons appear at the right of the screen indicating number of baubles given.

Dig spots remain “used” in subsequent runs through the zone despite having given nothing.

I’ve noticed this happening when I have had 946, 742, 150 baubles, all at different times. It appears to reset if i relog or change characters, but I don’t notice it during the level unless I pay close attention (though that might happen a lot more often now). Not sure as to the amount of baubles lost in total…

Am I missing a bauble cap? I still receive rewards at the end of levels.

EDIT: I double checked and turns out I forgot about the 750 limit. The problem at 150 was me using some items that use up baubles, 2 bonehead moments at the same time.

the first cap of baubles is 250. if you got the purse upgrade, the cap is 500. if you got the tote bag upgrade, the cap is 750. the upgrades only count for the character who got them.

if you’re over (or at) any of those amounts, you don’t get any more baubles (apart from the ones given at the end of the level, those ones ignore everything)

those are the only caps on baubles, so if you’re having problems at 150 baubles, then it is a bug. I’d probably use the in-game bug report if that was happening to me.

You will also receive Achievement Baubles over the cap, just FYI. But, yes, it sounds like you have reached the cap(s), as the numbers you list seem inaccurate (can’t have 942 on counter, as far as I know [Well, you could, but only after amassing an awful lot from bonus rewards]). Remember, upgrades are character-specific, as well, afaik.

Again, though, if you own the Tote, or Purse, your client may be bugged.

Good luck.
