@mordekai#1901 just so we are clear, my feeling of being disrespected by PWE was not that they removed the pack, it turns out in needed to be done. That's the real rub...why keep your community in the dark just because they could? Transparency goes along way...

I imagine that every day they are inundated with reports of stuff going wrong, bugs, and all sorts of problems across all their platforms.
If they took the time to log, explain and report what they were doing, (because each of these things will be a personal pain in the HAMSTER for those players they effect) it would probably take twice as long to fix them, cos they'd spend more time reporting than fixing.

Simply because they don't reply, or explain, doesn't mean they aren't working on the problems. (As we can see from the fact they have gotten round to addressing it)
But they have to prioritise their time, and it's not a personal disrespect aimed at anyone for them to get their heads down, their arses up and just get on with the job of sorting out what must be an absolute minefield of daily and weekly bug reports.

If not knowing what all the problems are and what they plan to do to fix them means HAMSTER gets sorted quicker, I for one prefer it that way.

The answer to the thread is YES, we will get it back and when is now.

Hi all,

So I started playing this amazing game about a week ago, loving the game so far, learning slowly the mechanics and skills / stats etc, I noticed a welcome pack in the rewards agent inventory alongside a companion ( illusionist ), I've redeemed the illusionist but left the Welcome pack till I had enough zen to use the 50% mount coupon you get to purchase my 1st proper mount

I logged in today and noticed it was removed from the Rewards agent.

Please can a developer / Moderator / Community manager / Veteran player clarify why I've lost this pack please.

Many thanks in advance,
Mark.

It's not there anymore, I didn't even get a chance to redeem mine

Hopefully I can get it back because I was saving for a mount

It'll come back in due time. It was heavily exploitable so we'll need to make tweaks before we can place it in the RCA again.

mbraderz

Thanks for the speedy reply @strumslinger

Will it still contain the same goodies as
previously?

I assume the problem remains that as much as you character bind the stuff in there, people can still refine enchantments, pass them on and simply replace the character and keep repeating.

Maybe you could limit the number of packs to the number of character SLOTS a player has? It would mean that legitimate replacements would not get the pack, but at some point a line needs to be drawn,

Easy solution is to allow one of these Packs per character but only openable at level 60 or something.

mbraderz

What about 1 per account instead of per character?

Or make the contents Bound to Character / unsellable? it was mainly the preservation wards and coal wards that were exploited by the looks of things and that's caused a major inbalance in the Trade House

I hope they keep the same contents though

Any news on when the Pack will be added back to the RCA? With this mount promotion on atm I could really do with an epic

hhmm dont think you understand, the content is already bound to character & once per account. The main issue is those items could be used to refine an unbound enchantment & pass it around, normal player would not benefit much but for those that bot they have unlimited accounts, after all the game is free.

I got it the first day. Lol. On all characters too. I'm feeling super special all of a sudden.
