    Great job on the Midsummer profession changes. I also hope that we could extend that purchasable quantity to other profession materials too.

    Please buff the Alchemy profession though.... it is a very good micromanagement activity that could potentially be worth it and helpful but not at its currently useless state.

    For future patches, might I suggest lowering the cost of upgrading mounts and also having a mount bag as suggested by someone in your 24-hour stream.
    You guys will be able to create and in turn sell more mounts in the zen store since people love to have different mounts but the pricetag of upgrading them is a huge barrier that most people don't bother with it.

    I suggest:
    Green to Blue = 100k diamonds
    Blue to Purple = 200k diamonds

    "Donate to the War Effort" is a fairly useless task at 15 Crescents. In fact it would be just as useless at 30. Crescents are pretty easy to get hold of and as one of the premium tasks of the campaign system it's kind of underwhelming as a reward.

    Donate to the war effort should give 12k AD, not Crescents that you don't need anymore by the time you unlocked it. Why would you buy the ancestral pack more than once? By the time we grinded out all the sparks for all 5 boons, you'll LONG have enough Crescents too. And after you got all 5 boons, the crescents are completely useless.

    So why would anyone want that project as a "premium" reward for unlocking the whole campaign tree? Please rework this into a AD daily. Or alternatively, give at least Seal of the Dark Feys instead. But Crescents, you might as well remove that project entirely.

    Major problem with the achievement professions. They aren't retroactive. Given that people have been working on the professions for a while, they really need to be.

    Also, can we get some love for the other achievement bugs? Most of them are listed here.

    Really nice - it is now worthwhile to contine doing the event after you have gotten your mount/pig/sunite garb or whatever...just to get a few more BoE items you can sell later on the AH.

    There are, however, a couple of very strange bugs with the Festival on the live server, and no mention of whether they have been fixed on the preview. See here, for example:

    It indicates I got gold, where I actually got the copper award ... also, what on earth is the Gauntlgrym stuff doing there ???
    Hoping for improvements...

    There is currently a bug with the UI if you are away from the event area it may not have updated information. Did you actaully receive the Gauntlgrym stuff?

    I get that same issue as well every so often with it showing both the current festival event rewards as well as the rewards from the awards from the previous festival event (so I'll see two separate entries of Fireblossom Petal for instance). I don't seem to receive the stuff twice, I think its just the reward display buffer is just not getting cleared or something.

    Panderus, all events can do this, festival or otherwise, started with last patch. They are retaining/displaying color ranking and rewards from the last event you completed, even if you have changed maps. Logging out/changing characters seems to be the only time it resets. It is only displaying stale info, it does not change your actual score/items received from the event just completed.

    You can see the scores being retained best when doing the festival ones. Complete one of trolls or herding and then do not participate in the next one, it will show your score for the second event as being the same as the previous one until you participate, then it will display the score correctly but will still show both events worth of rewards upon completion.

    Still no fix to the dracolich and blue dragon bugs. Still no fix to people jumping over the Gauntlgrym PvP gate before the match starts.

    *sigh*
    I so want this game to last...

    My guess is tomorrow when the 'Height of the Summer Festival' begins.
