Heirloom merchant back for a day or two
in Battle for Lion’s Arch - Aftermath
Posted by: aline rp.4836
I’ve read they were leaving several times a day on every site I went to about GW2.
It is clearly Anets fault people didn’t take the time to read about these changes. The least they could have done was go to each persons house and fed the information to them with a spoon.
What is funny to me, all the people who claim to never have time to read the forums are the first groups of people to post on the forums when they screw up.
Please point these postings out to me? I missed them….since I can only find the single post in the "news and anouncements’ from 6 days ago.
Communication was the problem. Like I have said numerous times…this doesn’t really affect me one way or another, had they actually done a decent job of getting the message out there, I would be right there arguing with you instead of against you. I don’t think they did a good enough job of getting the communication out there.
And…bringing the merchants back is just a nice thing to do. It doesn’t affect anyone who used their currency already in any way whatsoever. It simply allows people who didn’t see the obscure communication a chance to use theirs. It is simply a nice thing for a company to do to their customers who played their content.
Once again, this is not granting anything to anyone who didn’t play the content….it is not bringing back the places to get the heirlooms or belongings…it is rewarding the players who played the content…but failed to read a notice.
I think this post sums it up pretty nicely.
I second that. Bringing them back wouldn’t hurt anyone, except those who are clearly happy that some people didn’t turn in their heirlooms or belongings in time. Making their own items more valuable? Why do people need to take pleasure in other people’s mistakes? Why do they need to be mean? Consider that some players actually have a family, kids, and don’t have time to read the forums all the time. And someone above mentioned the search engine, that could greatly be improved… Finding information on the forums is not always that easy.
There is no living world content for this fortnight, it wouldn’t hurt to have the merchants back a few days. It doesn’t clash with any new content. Anet could do a gesture to these players. Show they care about all the players. Not just the ones who play all day and have spare time to skim the forums. But also those who have a life, a job, a family and made the mistake of choosing playing the game in the little sparetime they have, over spending hours looking for info on the forums every day. Are these players less valuable?

1: Yes this bug is serious, the amount of pages isn’t saying a lot everyone is affected and 99% of the people aren’t complaining here cause they see the thread and move along or hear bout it from guildies or in mapchat
2: It is sunday. Do you really think they should take time comment?You can argue that they should have fixed this before the daily is over. But personally I disagree. Most people got their achievement for the overaching TA living story. some can be effected. For the daily there where a lot of alternatives. So though a lot of people are affected the impact on their gaming pleasure is low. ….
Yes, for most people it probably made no big difference. But for me, it meant I didn’t get the daily that day. I crafted at least 2, maybe 3 keys and it didn’t register, if it had, I would have had my daily because I had already done 4 other ones. With a few people in the guild we started the TA dungeon, new path, but for various reasons, we struggled and spent way too much time there. Way past the time for the daily reset. So I never got the chance to do a 5th achievement from the list of possible tasks. Should have done that before entering the dungeon…
So for me, the bug cost me my daily reward of xp, karma, essence of luck, coins, laurel, and one achievement point …
Anet, I’d like my daily reward retroactively. As I can imagine most players active that day tried to craft those keys, wouldn’t it be simple to award 1 extra point to everyone who was active that day?
As far as I know no-one in my guild got that achievement that day.
Anyone else having problem with the delivery of items bought during the sale? I bought a BL salvage kit yesterday, but received no mail with the item. And my box is not full, it says 6/10, so that can’t be the reason. The gems were taken though, and it shows in the Recent Purchases window. I want what I bought!!
