False advertising for Blessed Gift of the Gods

Cryptic really needs to update the tooltips to indicate that all the drops are BtA or BtC. Really sketchy that the tooltips on the calendar still indicate that the items dropping Bind on Equip. This was a problem last time around and I guarantee that more people are going to feel scammed again.

It's like this I'm sure because that kind of thing happens to me. You have more things then you can possibly do in 1 day, every day. Yet more things keep adding to the pile. Basically at some point you have lost track and forgotten about promises or whatever because you have made so many it doesn't matter anymore. Yes you might have a list but it's way down that list so yeah..who knows when that gets done. You focus on what's hot.
So don't assume laziness. With game devs it's more like what I face daily.

When it's related to a purchase with actual money it's either laziness or incompetence. Take your pick.

I'll bring this up. Thanks for calling it out.

Oh, so the tooltips that state the items are Bind on Equip actually aren't?

Well, that sucks... I was hoping that maybe if I didn't get something I wanted it might have been purchasable. Were these items BoE at one point, if so why the change?

I just realised I use the ( ) emoticon far more often than I should have to on these forums!

Never BoE from these gifts, but everything in the gifts (there's no totally unique loot I can think of) is available from other sources BoE, and the tooltips used for the event indicate BoE for everything.

Its not just the Calendar that says that. The Event NPC also states they are BoE.
