What happened to random discount coupons?

fatherfungus

Open up a zillion Celestial Bag of Refining, not a single coupon.
That is the only reason we save and open them.
Those 25 refine point stones are next to worthless.
We like them for the discounts we can get in the Z store.
If they are permanently gone, then the whole 'pray' thing is POINTLESS.

This is really what I find amusing. With all the crazy going on with this mod we have complaints about coupons? really? What about trying to fight for the core aspect of the game itself like the boring combat & broken scaling to keep players from getting rad cap?

that is my biggest conern here as well but hey cant deny people do stock lock an save them things an mass open them for chances at coupon/good ones an if they did remove them think the people shld kno whether they can jus clear they invent out or not bc no point in hoarding em anymore kno wht i mean

It is not pointless because most people doing invocation are not for coupon. There are way many other good reasons people do that "religiously" and coupon (or RP) usually is not one of them.

Removing the coupons would
* Make the Zen->Item->AD->Zen cycle harder to do(but also push up the prices on Zen items on AH)
* Possibly increase Cryptics revenue since Zen items will sell at higher prices

So removing the coupons would make sense in connection with increasing the ZAX exchange cap to 1:750

I hope it is not intentional though.

The coupons have been fixed along with the not being able to open the bags bug.
Likely was related.
Thxs, coupons working again.
