The post is mostly just to inform people that this is a thing that's happening, and to not be fooled.

Hello all, I just wanted to alert everyone about some misleading marketing done by Arena Net during this Black Lion Key (BL keys) sale. Currently, BL keys are on a 30% sale and are going for 87 gems per key or in bundles of 5 for 315 gems and 25 for 1,470 gems. These prices are 30% off of their original prices.However, underneath the prices are the original rates with strikethroughs to show that they are what Arena Net are claiming are the original prices. These are incorrect. They claim that the 5 key bundle was 625 gems and the 25 key bundle was 3125 gems. These are the prices of if you buy the keys individually rather than the bulk (so if you buy 25 keys individually, it would come out as 3125 gems). The original prices for the bundles can be found on the Guild Wars 2 Wiki page. Here are some screenshots:Screenshot of in-game gem store with incorrect bundle prices underneathScreenshot of the wiki with the correct prices While you are not getting scammed if you these BL keys during this sale, the incorrect numbers listed below the prices still mislead the consumer by tricking them into believing they are getting a better deal than what is actually the case. Please, if you plan on buying keys during this sale, be aware that this is the case. To Arena Net: please fix this as it is kinda misleading. You're saving 30% off of the bundle, so the bundle price should be listed underneath. Not the price of if you buy every single key individually. Thank you all for reading.

There are some skins that are mysteriously not in the wardrobe if you don't have them unlocked--the most noticeable being the absent Ascension. If the idea is that skins that you cannot obtain anymore (such as gem store skins) are not supposed to be in the wardrobe, then stuff like the etherbound gauntlets are there. The most confusing case is probably the etherbound set, as the gloves and backpack are there but the shoulder and gloves are. Could we just have it so all skins are there? It would be more convenient so that we don't have to go to the wiki to get the skin ids. Also, please make the mount menu better. I know there are addons, but I don't like using addons because I don't like putting my account at risk. The current menu is so awful and makes switching between them pretty miserable. There are addons like radial mount menu that are really efficient and nice. I get the vibe that the devs attitudes towards this is kind of like "download an addon if you don't like it," but I feel like a big game like this shouldn't be reliant on addons like that to fix simple bad ui.

I want to see the etherbound and foefire skins back. They're pretty much universally loved and lots of people want them.
