There's a quality drop down in the auction house filtering interface and a new value has been added for celestial I suppose. I can't remember what it actually says... but it's some technical formatting information and not the word "celestial".
-
You used to get quite good crafting resources... things like dragon eggs and unified elements. I guess today's equivalent would be masterwork ingredients.
-
If you hover over the cost part of each item, it also tells you how much you have. Still annoying though...
-
There a risk to leaving things for later... On the plus side, they often make older content easier (increasing drop rates etc) and older content becomes easier anyway as our characters get stronger. On the minus side, stuff can just disappear and become unobtainable... things disappear from stores, campaigns become…
-
I have a couple of theories...* They introduced some anti-botting measures back then, and maybe there's an internal cooldown, or it keeps track of which nodes you've opened, so if you keep trying the same thing too much it stops working. * Some bug happens that stops a node from working, and then it stays broken for that…

When I was searching the forums for patch notes that brought in the changes, it was interesting finding threads of people complaining about how much stuff was in zone chat, how fast it was scrolling past, how it made it unusable. In 2013. So I think there was chaos then (remember all the gold sellers?)... but any problem…
-
That sounds plausible... like the repeatable tasks at the end of the campaigns. A way to earn some extra insignia powder or something.
-
Yes... in summary I was saying that system changes in general seem to be just presented to us when they're almost finished and there is no opportunity for change in response to feedback, but then I also mentioned the introduction of mythic enchantments (where there's was lots of feedback about the upgrade costs for alts,…
-
That's true... it is usually almost a fait accomplis. But, when they implemented the bound but account wide mythic enchantments, it did seem to be in response to player feedback on the preview server. The other thing we rarely get to see is the motivation for the changes... we're left wondering why they're changing these…
-
I guess we'll wait and see. It sounds like something will be repeatable though...
-
So, if there were three ways of earning battlepass progress (say... skirmish, dungeon or new module mini-bosses), does it mean you could decide to only do skirmishes, and just do as many as it takes to reach a weekly cap? Is that what you mean?
-
I think it came from a zen store pack at the start of a new module... maybe Northdark Reaches? In which case it's not available as new any more... we're just down to the last few unbound ones that might get sold on the auction house. There are quite a few items like this that were only in packs, and are now not…
-
In the next mod I think you can buy powder directly in the tarmalune store, and it might be even cheaper... so I'm waiting (like plasticbat said). And for this bug, maybe they will give us the promised powder and let us keep the upgrade tokens :-)
-
But they did deliberately introduce other channels for specific purposes... like LFG and trade. I don't know if they wrote down "the rules" anywhere, but there certainly was an intention (many years ago). I remember loads of people complaining for being reported for inappropriate use of zone chat... So I would disagree...…
-
Same here...
-
The usual answer is that you have been enjoying the higher item level and bonuses that mythic collars provide and that should be enough. But I agree it's disappointing if you've only just upgraded them and then they make it easier and cheaper. We can't really plan for these "step change" moments... either we never do…
-
The plan has traditionally been to keep them the same... becoming less effective over time (compared to new gear), and then if we're lucky release a new item with the same or a similar set bonus that we can all switch to. Like we have four versions of weapons with the stronghold bonus. There have been some enhancements,…
-
But it's clearly not the same as mythics... and as you then say, there are more choices with mythics. And as you also say, if I can't use celestials in this way and I can use mythics in this way, then they are obviously not the same. And that is all I was saying...
-
So when you say It doesn't sound the same as mythics... It doesn't sound like I can choose to play one character with unbound celestial enchantments. It doesn't sound like I can choose to play a few characters and pass unbound celestial enchantments between them. Will it be the same as mythics in the future?
-
Well... I guess they might sell us more space in the future, like the appearance library.
-
People are asking questions to try and eliminate the very many factors that can affect whether ratings show green or not... More things not mentioned yet... the campfire bonus that adds to ability scores, buffs from a potion you drank 5 minutes ago. Also, things that affect your item level, if it goes up and your ratings…
-
I noticed I could get a second vanity pet from April Fowl's claim free items event. It's no advantage to have two the same... so I deleted one of them for the space.
-
Not that being on the forum helps keeping up with the news these days... we have to hope someone copies little bits from discord, or facebook or some dev stream or a youtube video.
-
Buying zen through the exchange is a system for the very patient... When you place your offer to buy zen at 750 AD each, you join the back of a very long queue... as plasticbat said, 48.8 million zen. You get closer to the front* if a player sells zen for AD. They get the 750AD each and the player at the front of the queue…
-
You're right... it doesn't say. But I don't remember a different message for patches... so without patch notes in advance, I guess we can't tell.
-
OK, my launcher says there will be a patch tomorrow... at 14:00 UTC, 16 hours from now. Let's see if it happens... "We will be performing shard maintenance on March 28 from 7-9 AM Pacific (14:00-16:00 UTC). Please check the forums."
-
I think it is being updated for the next module... at least, I saw in a video that you can buy insignia powder directly. Don't know if the gear, companions, mounts etc are being changed though.
-
The red message was there the evening before for me... but I was away from the game for 18 hours after that. I think it's the second time I've seen the message and then found no patch notes... like the original poster. But last week I think there was a patch... But no patch notes.
-
OK... so the problem is the launcher saying there will be a patch and then there isn't.
-
Aragon made a video about it... at the moment you can't upgrade a mythic enchantment to the new rank unless it's bound. And even if you do that, the result isn't account wide either. So the worst of both worlds... But, I don't think we know whether it's intended or not... it might be that it's in a half-implemented state.
