I got gold with all 12 cubs yesterday, so it does seem to work on some maps. But I guess there's a lot of luck involved in whether or not you get a map where all cubs are present.

Or at least make it so that we can set that skill to auto-cast ourselves, which seems to be impossible right now.

Really loving the expansion and the homestead! There's one thing that would make the homestead even better for me personally, which would be allowing us to keep our Jade Tech Offensive and Defensive Overcharges when entering and leaving the homestead. If it's somehow necessary for them to not be functional inside instances, would it maybe be possible to just pause them instead of removing them? That would make my life in Tyria so much easier. Thank you for reading! ❤️ (And yes, I know the overcharges aren't absolutely necessary for any content. I just like having them and think it's a shame if a useful game mechanic like this goes unused because it keeps getting removed by other parts of the game's content, making it too much of a hassle to reapply every time for players to even bother. The guild hall and the Mistlock Sanctuary fall into the same category of offenders here that keep removing the protocol effects.)

Thank you for spreading Wintersday cheer and kindness to so many people with this thread! Keep up the great work!

Just to clarify, is this contest only for visual art, or also for other kinds of art like writing or music?

84 for me, please. :)Sapphirine.1023

That's possible, yeah, though there has to be a better way to prevent people from harvesting the ascended plants than keeping an expensive glyph deactivated for the whole home instance? It would be so much nicer for us players if the ascended plants were "immune" to the Reaping, so that all the regular nodes can be harvested with the glyph again.

The use of the gathering tool upgrade Glyph of Reaping for resource nodes in other players' home instances was deactivated around the time ascended cooking was introduced. This made sense back then, given that there was a bug with the ascended crops. But the ascended crops can no longer be gathered by players other than the instance owner anyway, so could you maybe consider giving us back the functionality of the Glyph of Reaping for the regular nodes in other players' home instances? Several of my friends bought the Skyscale Hatchling Harvesting Tool from the gemstore just for this glyph, so that we could all gather together much faster in my home when I opened it for my friends. It was a really joyful experience for everyone to be done with the gathering that much faster. Now, however, it's very frustrating to be unable to use the functionality of that expensive glyph for the majority of our daily gathering, and we can't even understand the reason why this glyph has not been turned back on. Please let us use the glyph on the regular nodes in other players' homes again?

Did you receive your item or gold back yet?

What happens about the gold/items which EU players lost during the time that the EU servers were down, but the Trading Post was still operating normally, so that NA players were able to purchase items listed by EU players and sell items to EU players who had open buy orders? I honestly cannot tell if the gold of the items that my Trading Post shows me as sold during the last few hours is actually on my account or not because I didn't screenshot my gold before the lockdown, but logically that gold must be lost since we were rolled back to yesterday morning, right? I assume this affects a lot of players, though of course I don't know how many of us had open buy orders or listed items during the lockdown. If every affected player sends a ticket to the support, though, that will flood the support terribly, so I figured it might be a better alternative to ask here and wait for an official statement.

I know this is an older thread, but I would like to add my own voice to this chorus asking for bags to not be soulbound. It's ridiculous for ANY crafting material to be soulbound. I have 24-slot bags on my main character who is Jeweler and Chef, and who will now never be able to get an upgrade to any bigger bags. It would be fine for me if you made other characters unable to equip the bags, but at least to be able to upgrade them to bigger bags for my main character if I place them in the bank.

A pass or key of some sort that I can give to my friends to let them enter my home instance to gather nodes inside without me being present or even online for it. Also, I really love the suggestions other people made about a Witch Broom Glider and additional guild slots.
