A guild member and I used our Tomes of Influence shortly after game launch and used the influence to purchase several upgrades. We discovered another good friend of ours was playing in a different world so we transferred. When we reached our destination world all of our guild influence was missing. I understand not being able to credit us for each and every point we earned before the transfer, but I feel that the Tomes of Influence should be given back to us to use in the new world. We purchased the Tomes when we bought the game and we should be able to benefit from them despite changing worlds. If our Summon Mistfire Wolf ability disappeared we would fully expect that to be reinstated and the same should be true for the Tome.

Thank you for your time, and if there is any other information you need to facilitate this correction please contact me anytime. (I assume you have all my contact information from my account information)

Influence cannot and should not be replaced every time a guild changes worlds, for that would reduce the value of Influence, causing “inflation” through limitless replacements each time a guild chooses to change worlds. That could even encourage guilds to “hop worlds” and cause an instability of World-versus-World gameplay.

Tomes are intended to have meaning and value. If you decide to move back to the world on which you chose to use the Tome, you will find the Influence is there waiting for you.
