Invoking reward bug

When mod 6 came in my rogue was 30-40 lev. Reward from invoking was minor thaumaturgic stone (500 refinment). He leveled to 66 and still gets minor thaumaturgic stone as reward, while my other character was 60 and received lesser resonance stone (2500 refinment) since mod 6 came.

    Not sure if it's a bug or working as intended, but it seems that once the system decides what you get, it never changes. Seems like a pretty poor design choice so I'm hoping it's a bug that will get fixed sooner or later, or much much later, maybe.

    The random RP invoking reward never changes with level, and is in no way related to your level; it is random but fixed per character.

    The potion will change with level, so that it is usable by your character, but it will be the same type: e.g., if your character gets Major Healing Potion it will change to Superior Healing Potion after level 65ish.

    Personally, I'm glad that the reward never changes: I would hate to have another dozen items for my bags or personal bank. BtA would definitely be better than BtC, but it's just a freebie.

    Mine changed at level 70. All my chars were 60 before mod 6, so not sure if it changes at another level also.

    If you want all players to be just as lucky, they would have to give everyone the same item. Let's say the devs chose that everyone gets a lesser Mark of Potency. Would that make you happier?

    Random reward every time would work. Instead of rolling once and stuck with it from now on.

    At least, change to another random once (say) biweekly (every next sunday).
    Changing it everyday has another implication. If it is different everyday, inventory management is another issue.
    This way everybody has the same fair shot to something good or something bad instead of "born this way".

    Huh, after insisting the reward is constant forever and always, today two of my characters got a new RP reward. One got a worse deal (minor power stone --> lesser mark of potency), and one was a sidegrade (lesser thaumaturge --> lesser power).

    Both are level 70, and this was their 25th day of invoking. Another level 70 still is getting the same reward, but it is possible that it re-rolled and ended up on the same RP stone.

    I could live with the reward re-rolling on a long cycle, but I definitely don't want it changing daily as long as the RP stones are BtC.

    Ninja fix?

    No, those items only change once, at lvl 70. Then stay the same indefinitely. Btw, someone said earlier they are "bound to account". Not true, all are Bound to Char, although binding them to account would make more sense indeed. So if you're stuck with something you don't need, you're screwed forever.

    I hope my HR will get hers change in level 70. She is getting character bound Lesser Mark of Power everyday. She has 20 now. That is 365 per year. I guess at least it is better than Lesser Mark of Stability or Potency.

    I want to play whatever version of the game you're playing, because right now all my 4th invocation rewards are bound to character not account.

    Honestly I think that they should be bound to account instead of character, cause right now I've got a stack or lesser resonance stones on a character I don't play at all and is currently a invoking/leadership/storage character.

    My CW main always gets a lesser mark of potency (50 refinement points) and it doesn't feel proportionate to the time and effort put into a lvl 70 toon.

    Either way, it would be nice to hear if repeating rewards are a bug or not.

    When I made my earlier comment. I was looking at the stuff I've gotten from the celestial coin boxes instead of the invocation coins (I ended up getting the same from each) So I assumed they were bound to account.

    In light of that, I think the invocation stones should be bound on account in the same way the rewards from the celestial coins are.

    This is probably why they made it character bound. People with multiple characters will have a nice advantage getting lots of stones. I would like it to be account bound too, but don't really see that happening any time soon.

    actually the best one you want to get right now is thaumaturgic stones as you can use them on enchants that can travel from character to character. The resonance stones are great on toons you play and need to refine, but for many of us that have 20+ characters for leadership farm, they are useless.
