    The fix does NOT work. I got 10 parels refunded which gave me just NOTHING again! What a waste of time and money

    I was under the impression only items from the starlight bags were bound. Out of my replacement parcels, I received 2 staldorf companions, back to back that were bound to my character. Just wondering if this is working as intended because I received several other mounts and companions out of parcels and none of the others were bound? (just to clarify I did not open any starlight bags today)

    @miasmat

    Not all PS4 players are angry and frothing at the mouth over this. Thank you for your hard work, and thank you for getting back from your vacation and putting all of the effort into this that you did. I have a friend who is on right now that said we got our gifts back - he's quite excited for all of us to get off of work.

    Staldorf and Neverwinter Champions Charger (mount) are bugged and are BtC when they should be BoE, sadly, I doubt they will do anything about it though...

    @miasmat is there any chance of the event being extended by a little on ps4. 2 days is not a lot of time to find people to exchange gifts with. a lot of people won't have this week off like they did during the main holiday two week period. it would be nice to have a little time now? we also missed out on double enchants for opening gifts for this unlike the other platforms. it would be nice to get a little extra for the longer wait..

    So for those of us still having issues - haven't received our reimbursement parcels, is this still being worked?

    Just want to make sure that we are still getting coverage and this hasn't been signed off as completed 100%

    Submitted a ticket and PMs. Still no parcels for my character here on PS4.

    If you didn't get your replacement parcels on PS4, Xbox or Dragon, please PM me your character@handle and shard and I'll look into it. We know there's an issue if you renamed your character, so including the old name will make my life easier to find those too. Thanks.

    I really dont understand somethings. They "fixed" the problem in starligth parcels because dont drop gift of simril, but after received my starligth parcels, if my char already opened 20+, i just received blue unidentified itens or transmute weapons, BUT, if i open with chars that have opened 20 gifts or less, than, drop somethings like green companions.

    The RNG is just not liking you very much. :( You got lucky with the first ones.

    To put it more in prospective - for the first 5 parcels you open, your "bonus" rewards has a loot table of 5 possible rewards. After opening those 5, the loot table gets expanded to include 7+ more (12+ total) possible rewards. After 10, it gets more than doubled, adding another 14 possible rewards to the mix, making it 26+ possible rewards. After 15, even more gets added. After 20, you have access to the entire loot table of possible rewards. The drop rates on the Unidentified blues and the enchants are still quite high though. The odds of getting one of those "Highly-Sought-After Rewards" is still quite low.
    I would guess the Embellished Apparatus of Gond is on the Highly-Sought-After Rewards loot table, however, I actually got one to drop on the 11th Starlight Bag one of my characters opened. Yes the 11th, I was surprised when it dropped as I wasn't expecting something like that until after 20 Bags... which I was opening 20 of first before even touching Parcels.

    I wonder if there is a really, really, low chance of getting something from the "really good" loot table with every package opened?

    So I've opened today around 140 parcels and bags and still did'nt get 2 of those items, just the light, fireworks and random loot. No blues etc. Not a single one. Is it supposed to be so?

    Still not fully correct, got the mysterious crystal charger,
    when i opened it the comment said that i had an epic but it was blue...
    Took a screeny but i'm not around long enough to post it...
  • kooler#1416 kooler Member Posts: 31 Arc User
    The crystal charger provide you a chance on getting one of the mounts, where the epic horse is just an option
  • swizzy#4276 swizzy Member Posts: 7 Arc User
    yeah i know that mate, but when opening the box: the text said: that i had obtained an epic reward qualitty item but a got a blue mount and blue insignia

    I got a regular and an Embellished on separate characters pretty early as well, I guess those go under the "seasonal events" reward, that starts from 5 gifts?

    Huh. For some reason I never even noticed that NPC had a list of the drops... thanks @kreatyve

    What will happen regarding the bugged parcels that people opened after last weeks reset, but before the emergency reset?
    Xbox and PC was both affected by that, iirc and I haven't seen anything about it...

    Obviously PS4 has been a more urgent issue, but that seems to be under control by now.

    I'm sure your well aware ps4 just got the fix last night and all consoles are still having issues. The way you stated that makes it seem like your on a fit over the ps4 users, which may I point out only have 1 day to finish the event. I would personally like to share with you that while I appreciate receiving some boxes the emergency reset bugged 1 of my characters reset my parcels opened and I'm still not getting the blue items nor enchantments. I am however glad they have or at least tried to fix any issues.

    Drider starting now. It'll take about 3 hours to process all these names. I'll give an update when it's done or if anything comes up along the way.

    This is correct. You can talk to the NPC that gives you the coupon (name escapes me at the moment) and ask about what the possible rewards are, for a full list.
    After 600+ Starlight vouchers picked up, I have never checked that part out, thanks for pointing it out :)

    And Drider is done. Thank you all for your patience!

    For all platforms, if you didn't get your replacement Starlight Parcels, please put in a support ticket. They'll handle the specific cases from now on. It's especially helpful if you include previous and current character name if you renamed your character between December 14 and now.

    anything new on the Starlight parcels we opened in the time between the last patch and the following fix on the PC side?
    should we also submit a ticket, or is there another solution in progress?

    again, thank you for all your hard work and keeping up the communication with us.
    I do believe in killing the messenger...
    Want to know why?
    Because it sends a message!
  • kooler#1416 kooler Member Posts: 31 Arc User
    Once again, I have asked my clan mates, who I've opened with, and most of them didn't get the full drop, e.g. we did not get those blue items at all.
