Guild Wars 2

Logan Man’s up towards the end of the storyline.

As for Trahearne, he does Necro skills and attacks all the time. He does indeed summon 9 flesh golems at one point to “escape” and If you play as a sylvari you get to use Caladbolg at one point. The sword does indeed replace all your skills, you get sort of elemental based attacks that fly off your sword as well as whirling wrath.

Actually, it can be quite game breaking for a player since the issue has gone from fault to trust. This bug highlights their unwillingness to take responsibility, and I argue not from the perspective that they are unwilling to grant the actual item a customer bought before this bug was generally known, it is about this unwillingness in relation to them not removing the option to list this box on the trading post. Hence, even after they are aware of the problem, aware that they will most likely not give anyone the goods that they bought, they are still knowingly allowing players who trust in ArenaNet to become victims of this bug. That is, at least to me, unfathomable.

And I totally agree with you guys, it is a point I missed out on in my post. =) I can see what you mean.
Something that has niggled at me since TP began is that there is no way to preview what your buying either.

Yesterday I did the same thing, I bought a box of berserker draconic armor. As with the rest of you it came out rare gladiators and I was abit surprised and confused. I submitted my ticket and came to read this thread and I’m disappointed with the ST responses, However;

I have to say, there are some of you posting on here that are downright unbelievable. I am not a “diehard arenanet fanboy” but even I can see that a company comprised of 270 members, would be overwhelmed by problems and bugs that wouldn’t faze a larger company and it’s hardly their fault. Especially that hacked accounts business, consider for a moment how much work it takes to filter through requests and decide whether a hacked account ticket is genuine, whether there is enough information and then respond to it. On top of event bugs, story bugs, and further balancing.

Saying things like “I am going to quit” “I am going to sell my account”. I’m sorry, that you feel that way honestly, but what makes you think they are going to be able to do anything faster because 10 or 20, or 30 disgruntled players are telling them they are going to leave the game. In reality ArenaNet already have your money, this is not a subscription service, I’m not saying they don’t care about the players because I wholeheartedly believe that they do, but that’s the truth.
Moreover saying the latter, welcome to your accounts instant ban and your eBay fraud problems?

As for me I only paid 6g49s for my box, which I suppose should’ve tipped me off that something was wrong when the individual pieces were 2-3g/ea. However, it’s not gamebreaking for a player. Yes it sucks, everyone can see that it sucks. Infact it sucks so much that some people don’t even believe it could happen. But get yourself in gear, if you like the game and you actually want to play go do the easier dungeon explorables ;-) and make bank. 6-12g in the grand scheme of things is not a lot. It’s going to set you back a few days sure but I would hope im playing this game for years to come just like the original.

For those who don’t understand why the bug occurs, it seems to me that it is likely that the box is created and the item code attached to the items the box releases is incorrect. Which I would imagine is a fairly easy thing to fix and a fairly easy mistake to make. Databasing your items and you fatfinger a 3 instead of a 2 or whatever.

That over and done with. I would also like to express my further disappointment at the ST responses given. I know there is some kind of system in place to grant items to players as a missing “Tome Of Influence” has been replaced to someone I know within the game. I would like to see a forum moderator response to the thread or at least have the issue stickied to the top.
Both of these things are probably NOT going to happen if people continue to act how they are acting. You don’t see the thread with story line bugs filled with “I’m leaving and selling my account” do you?

Vent over. Please feel free to attack my statements. =P <3 you all.
