    Not being able to exchange onyx for scrip is a bug, just I guess not one that's fixed yet.

    I'm utterly ticked off about this:

    Gilded Giant Spider: The version purchased on the Zen Market now properly moves to the Stable, like the one purchased on the Wondrous Bazaar.
    Gilded Giant Spiders that vanished from the inventory will be moved into the main inventory again over the course of next week, so players can properly bind them to their Stable.
    Gilded Giant Spider: Players may no longer purchase a Gilded Giant Spider from the Zen Market if their current character has one from the Wondrous Bazaar, and vice-versa.
    This is intended to prevent accidental redundant purchases.

    When you had the B.S. reason to take out wards from the trade bar store:

    2/18: "One of our guidelines for putting items into in-game stores is to never allow that exact item to also exist in the Zen Market."

    --------
    So it's okay to advertise in TWO stores that ugly F'n spider mount, but take something that players actually want away from us so you can make more money? Give us back our freaking wards. geez.

    Lots of great fixes in this patch! Very happy about how quickly you guys are squashing bugs.

    That, said...

    1. The Caer-Koenig Frozen Treasures Voucher from the "Frozen Treasures" task in IWD can not be donated to the guild coffer. I have a bunch of campaign donations tied up in these.
    2. The Strongbox of Influence/Gems/AD/Equipment can be properly donated as Influence/etc. if unopened, but if you open it you always get 5 AD vouchers regardless of the strongbox type.
    3. You can't turn in Onyx Fragments for Vanguard Scrips at the Dread Ring bounty master.

    The Guilded Giant Spider in the Wondrous Bazaar is per character, not account. So if you were to buy it from there you would only have 1 spider. Yes, it is the same item, but the bind and amount is different. This would be like if Coal Wards were still in the trade bar store but the Zen store sold a pack of 5 for 1500 Zen.

    And Coalescent wards still stay in the Zen store and the AD exchange prices keep rising and Trade House prices for Coalescent wards keep going up too. Nice stabilisation of the economy!!

    Indeed. We are almost right back to where we were with the ZAX before AD-Leadership nerf. Good job Cryptic! Economy is back in the shithouse.
    thats how they want it, they want it to be viable to pay money as much as paying ad for zen, an i am sure the higher it goes for cost of ad to zen, they will like it more as in alot of cases they dont want us to be able to make alot of ad so the option of spending more cash for zen is more prominent.
    Except at its worst the inflation point exceeds the hard cap of 500 AD per zen. Which removes the vast majority of incentive for people to even trade the zen they purchased for AD, which removes their incentive to buy more Zen then they would personally use, and Cryptic's business model is predicated upon whales making large purchases of Zen which said whales can then convert into other resources (mostly through AD). This is why we used to have a massive backlog on the ZAX. The demand for Zen far exceeded the supply because the Zen was worth more AD than people could get for it. And we're not far from hitting the cap at this point. It was already over 480 AD per Zen before maintenance, as I recall.

    The inflation is out of control. We've got about 3 more weeks of people trying to farm up the resources for new Zen mounts at least (that's when the explorer pack is scheduled to leave the claims agent, and so there goes the 50% off coupons). Combined with the market already adjusting heavily upwards to account for the massive cost increase on coal wards and subsequent ballooning on enchant and runestone costs, and we're in a bad situation economically. As I've said before, a 50% off mount now is only marginally cheaper than a 15% off mount before the trade bar nerf.

    So, thanks for protecting the economy, Cryptic.

    That you can't buy vanguard scrips anymore makes Dread Ring the most tedious campaign to complete now. If the cheap lair keys and the falling prices for greater marks are a problem, just remove the lair keys from the vendor instead please.

    With Maze Engine they removed any sort of value from the bounty currencies. They need a total rework as to their value. They were barely valuable before in the non-campaign zones where you could get what a seal for 20 or 40 of them but now they have made even the campaign bounties worthless.

    4 hours and counting, no updates in regards to the length of the outage. Safe to assume I should just go to sleep?

    Still cannot queue to anything for all my characters. Just reporting it here and in game as requested by CS. However, more content I cannot access was added and they fixed some animation here and there. Seem to be real hard to identify what is wrong with the people still left unable to queue.

    It actually struck me as strange when the spider was added to the Zen store (without fanfare), since it had existed in the WB for quite a long time prior to that.

    "Last request - microtransactions for alllll old skins for zen/weapon appearance changes, 500 zen to make ur wep glow the color/enchant you want it... You will make more off that one item than any other zen item ever made." freshour

    "beckylunatic" Gateway AH should have column headers to sort by buyout, bid, end time, quantity, etc. These disappeared iirc with the module launch. It's obnoxious.

    Was really dissappointed because I had hoped the queuing bug had been removed but alas still the same probs as since they changed the system :'(
  • hastur905hastur905 Member Posts: 173 Arc User
    I have had no issues with the que system, however I only ever private que. If you are referring to edemo or tia? I have noticed that only private ensures entry if you have a full group, public often fails because you do not have the class requirements.

    standart temple of the spider queue still broken for gf.
    Please fix Zhentarim Warlock companion's skill "Arcane Warping" to the originally intended "Arcane Boost"
    zhentarim-warlock-companion

    Pure -> Transcendent Plague Fire weapon enchantment giving 80damge/20 seconds for 500k+ AD is a joke.

    geez, devs are really wasting time on retired boxes by nerfing what ever remaining collected lockboxes in existance, leave them alone until they are all consumed, that is exactly pure bait and switch, i am surprised that they are bothering with retired boxes instead of focus on what the players want it fix,

    well obviously this change is targeted at finally eliminating whatever version of the astral resonator exploit is out there right now. So it probably is in your best interest that they paid attention to this
    You must one of those with 100~200k zen just waiting to prices go up

    Or there is a troll declining HAMSTER the rest.

    "Certain retired Lockboxes no longer have a chance to drop Jeweled Idols or Astral Resonators. "

    Bait and switch anyone?

    Another AD source gone.
