I've been cheated!

So I decided to open a batch of lockboxes today due to it being 2x enchantments and runestones. The last few of these events we had I saved up companion packs to open for double the chance of rewards. Now previously when I received a Bonding Runestone in the pack I would get another because it was 2x enchantments and runestones, SO imagine my surprise when I open a few companion packs today and I only receive ONE BONDING RUNESTONE instead of two in the one pack. @strumslinger: what is this HAMSTER? I'm feeling more and more cheated by this game as time goes on. Now last time I checked Bonding Runestone is still a runestone hence I should have received 2 and not 1. All other enchantments and runestones I got in those packs doubled up but not the Bonding.
Our pain is self chosen.

    I think this is deserved to be in the bug report section. Since I don't think any of the runestone drops are affected by 2x event.

    items in lockboxes are not affected by the 2x enchantments event.

    As far as I remember, everything but bondings is affected during the event when you open the enchant boxes. I haven't opened any in a long while though.

    Yes, they are. Weapon enchants, armor enchants, and bonding runestones are not affected though.

    Special enchants (weapons, armor, and bonding) have never double dropped during the event. Not sure how well that has been advertised by the devs, but that's always been the case.

    You're all wrong. I have on more than one occasion received 2 Bondings instead of 1 during a double event. This is why I'm posting here now. If I was just lucky before then okay but its a bloody runestone FFS - it should count towards the event bonus.

    If you had actually gotten 2 bondings during the event - that was a bug, which has been fixed. They were never supposed to be doubled.

    It is affected by 2x enchantment. That was why I never open those in non-2x period. However, I don't remember I got 2x bonding though.

    As others have stated, special enchants/runes such as Bondings, Weapon, Armor have never been affected by double enchant events and if one did get two, it was a bug. Closing this up now as there's no point in arguing this fact.
