This is great news. Well done! I know people who couldn't use the temporarily exchange because they didn't have LI right now, so many will be grateful for this.Now if the exchange could be added soon it would be even better.

No. If you think what I did was wrong I can only say you that we will have to agree to disagree.

I told you that we have been getting LI instead of LD for more time. And that is true. I will do the math for you since you don't believe it. 168LI/4=42 weeks doing w5. (If people cleared on monday it would be 43 weeks with172LI, if they waited until the patch then only 42 weeks with 168LI and the exchange was only for 168LI). (454-168)=286 LD have been farmed 286-6=280 LD( 6 were from w7 in this 2 weeks) 280LD/7=40 weeks ( farming w5 and w6 and people getting LD). Therefore, 42 or 43 weeks farming and getting only LI vs 40 weeks of farming and getting LD. Regarding your other points, I think I have explained myself well enough. So if you still don't understand where is the problem, then I think I can't help you and nothing will make you understand my point of view.

First the ring is a reward for W5-W7 and you know what? We have been more time with bosses giving LI in w5-w8 that we have been with LD ( more than 1 year giving each week LI). So, are you telling me that I skipped 2 years of w5 cleaning? When I was 1 year getting LI in that wing,xD. Ohh but there is a problem here. I had spent my 750LI in 3 legendary sets, so I needed to farm more for the ring. I didn't have my w5 LI of 1 year farming it (all spent). So I had to farm LI or LD again. Remember that a developer told us that you could spend your LI and then after farming more LI use the exchange in some months. It is not players fault if this was done incorrectly. And second, when the exchange was introduced with the rules we were told, we were supposed to farm the ring as we wanted because we are free and we were given 2 options that you can like or not. You can say that you don't like how I farmed the ring, but did I farm for it? Yes. Was I told that my LI farm was the same than a LD farm? Yes. It is my fault for choosing how to farm it when I am given freedom? No. Do you like how the exchange was done? No. Then your problem is with the developers, not with the people as me who trusted in which we were told and farmed according with that. Players didn't add LD 1 year later, players didn't add the exchange and didn't break the word given, so I can't really understand how you can have a problem with the people who used their freedom to farm the ring.

Problem is that we have been 2 years waiting for the ring. In the last 8 months of these 2 years LD appeared and players who were farming had the possibility to choose what to do, w1-4 or w5-6. The option of w1-w4 was better, LI were more useful, you could get more faster and you could exchange them, so many players farmed those wings for months. Players could choose how to farm for the ring, they had freedom in that and they were 8 months farming. Now the exchange is removed but players have already been at least 8 months (maybe even more, since we have been 2 years with the ring) faming LI thinking that it was the same than a LD because they were told that. Now people say that players don’t want to farm w5-w7 and why should they farm it now? They were farming their LI for at least 8 months because they were told that the exchange would be a possibility. Nobody is asking for a free legendary ring (we all have to do w5-7), but it is not players fault if they are given different options to farm the ring.

For many this is not a minor bug, that’s why posts are happening daily. When LI exchange was removed Anet developers lost all the trust many of us had in them (maybe due to a mistake, but it happened, nevertheless) and the only way to repair it is to bring the exchange back. You are asking people to trust in some words about a future update so people stop writing. And I think we all want to trust, but right now, it's not easy, not when we have seen what happens to words.

I disagree with you. If people hadn’t posted in reddit/forum we wouldn’t have got anything. And now that we have got an answer, it is a matter of when we will have the exchange back. If people write here asking when, it shows to the developers that we are interested in this feature and that we are waiting. When the developers have to choose between bringing this back and solving another bug, because they can’t do all at the same time, they can give priority at something that many people are asking. What is more important? They have to make that choice every time they solve something. Therefore, it is not bad to show that we are interested in this so they don’t forget that we are here waiting.

We have to take into account that some people may have spent their LI in legendary armor. Therefore, if they add the exchange soon, people with only a few LI won't be able to farm many. Since, it seems that they think the less people use the exchange the better, I think they will add it soon. Maybe as a part of the 2 weeks of Dragon Bash.

It is not the same since for the gift of battle we were told that the exchange was going to be removed and not coming back. With the LI to LD the exchange was removed without telling anyone and now we have been told that it will come back temporarily.

Today, I have been answered in my ticket about this. I did it 8 days ago in Spanish before we were told that the exchange would come back. And now I am told in my ticket that they can’t bring the exchange back as I asked them. I really hope the Spanish GM which has answered to me is wrong about this and what has been told here about bringing the exchange back is true. However, this only shows me a lack of communication if different people say opposite things.

Relax a bit, they told us they will bring them back in a future planned build ( not the first one), so probably tomorrow or next week at tuesday we should have them back. Although, some info about this would be great.

I think they will add them in a tuesday patch so if we don't have luck tomorrow then surely next week. But it would be great to have an answer on this and about the time we will have to exchange them.

But they did and the most important thing is to be fair with players. It is not fair than a player that last week exchanged his LI for LD can make now the ring and another one who didn't can do it.

I did a lot w5 when it was released and you know what? I did get many and many LI ( not LD). After LD were released I almost stopped doing raids so I got few LD. I could have exchanged to get many LD but remember that there was no time limit and I didn't need. So, it is not our fault that we didn't get LD when w5 was released and now to have lost the exchange wich had no time limit.

We didn't exchange because LI were useful and LD weren't so how many LI did we need to exchange? We couldn't know until coalescence was released but then was too late to exchange.I thought it was better to wait and use the LI I didn't need to exchange in another legendary armor piece. If I had spent 168 LI to get LD without waiting I could have had the opposite problem, too have too much LD and need LI instead. Moreover, there was no time limit, we couldn't know the exchange was going to be removed. Therefore, I thought this was the best although finally, I was wrong, as it seems.

Before last patch I didn't exchange my LI for LD because we didn't know how many LD were needed so I thought that it was better to wait. There was no reason to not wait becasue the statement was that there was no time limit for the exchange. If this statement was going to change, anet should have told us and let some weeks to exchange for the people who wanted.So, pls after all of this, add again the exchange at least for some weeks. Many people like me who could have got enough LD to craft the ring last week are really angry and I at least don't want to do raids 1 year more to get the ring. we have already done the work established to get the ring and now you are asking us to do it again. It is just not fair and I, at least, prefer to say good bye to the ring than do it all again.

We really need an answer if you are going to add it back. It was stated that the exchange had no time limit. So, adding the opposite exchange isn't a excuse for removing this one (which is besides the one we need right now).

It is not fair to reverse the exchange when you said that there was no time limit ( if you do that you were just lying). You could add both options to the players and that would be great. Because many people as me have been waiting to exchange until we knew how many LD were needed for the ring. And now that we need LD, they are removed. That's the worst thing you can do. And it is not fair for the people that waited believing in the words that you told us.

Yes, I am absolutely sure the option to Exchange LI for LD has disappeared. Before the patch I could see the option to exchange when I had LI in my inventory and now I can’t. And I haven’t exchanged 168 LI yet.

First they should solve the raid seller bug so we can finish coalescence, but then ok.

I hope we don’t have to wait too much, we have been waiting 2 years to finish the ring and now this bug appears.

I have tried to exchange some LI to LD in the raid seller and after this patch the option has dissappeared. I could see the option before the patch and I can't now, and of course I haven't exchanged yet the 168 LI to LD. Before the patch LI had to be in your inventory to see the option, but now it doesn't appear whatever you do.
