Guild Wars 2

I have run across an issue involving a number of account bound consumable items not having the ability to stack with each other. I seem to have it narrowed down to items that have a status of “Account Bound on Acquire” not being able to stack with those with a status of simply “Account Bound”. In addition, it seems that in a stack, only one item is actually “Account Bound on Acquire” and that status can be changed by splitting the stack but there will always be at least one item remaining with that status.

Here is an example using blade shards. The initial status is Account Bound on Acquire

Splitting the stack creates 2 different statuses

Splitting all the way and leaving one item behind leaves only one Account Bound on Acquire item

In further digging I discovered you can combine multiple “Account Bound on Acquire” items and split them as well leaving one “Account Bound on Acquire” item at the end.
Example 1 Example 2

This seems to affect items that have been in the inventory for a while. In my case that means boosters, blade shards, fortune scraps, mystic forge stones, even old piles of bloodstone dust and dragonite ore.

The quick solution is obviously to split and use up the faulty items but with the limited space we have already, I hope this can be addressed. I also hope this isn’t a repost, I couldn’t find anything related to it.
