@Tiilimon.6094 said:It's a compensation gift it seems, I stand corrected. That still means that it's reimbursement.
It's not reimbursement, and Anet intentionally calls it a gift and not reimbursement, because Anet doesn't owe us any reimbursement for rollbacks or downtimes. Read the ToS.
Asset means something that contains value, meaning things such as these rare drops you're talking about.
I'm aware what assets are, but there's a huge difference between Anet saying that they restore rare and valuable items, and saying that they'd restore all assets.
I'm quite sure the problems with missing gold will be resolved as well eventually, but they might have quite a lot of work to do so it might not happen very quickly.
Possibly, and I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt there for now, but responses in the thread I linked suggest that Anet has rejected all these requests until now.

@Tiilimon.6094 said:its not a gift tho xD
even Anet calls it a gift though:
To those who lost progress we gifted the mount select license as a small way to help make that loss up to them.
or how do you gift something that's not... a gift?!
@Tiilimon.6094 said:The developers don't view your lost gold as progress, they view it as losing assets.They also stated what you should do in such a situation, have you contacted support yet?
They never said that either! Anet asked people to contact support in case they got a rare drop on monday, not if they "LoSt aSsEtS"
if you obtained a rare and valuable item during the affected period, such as a legendary precursor, please contact Customer Support
and as it stands right now, I have yet to see a single report about TP-gold being restored. Quite the opposite, see this thread:https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/105716/players-never-received-gold-from-items-that-sold-during-the-eu-server-rollback-shutdown

@"Fire Attunement.9835" said:To those who lost progress we gifted the mount select license
The problem is, this is just plain wrong. You gifted the license to everyone who logged in, whether they lost any progress or not, which is a huge difference.
Maybe you did this because it is too labor-intensive to determine which accounts actually lost significant progress and which didn't. But person X who decided to not log in might've taken the day off to play with their friends, gave up on all their daily rewards or might have to wait an entire year more now before they can get their second red SAB-infusion. They get a bonfire. Meanwhile person Y who just quickly logged in for their daily chest anyway and left again immediately get's a mount select license for lost progress? There's absolutely no way for you to tell if the rollback impacted X or Y worse. You had the chance to simply compensate everyone inconvenienced by the server problems equally. It honestly would've even been fine to give nobody anything, but instead you started a lottery of who clicked a button and who didn't. How is a person who gave up on their log-in-chest is in any way better off than a person who lost their log-in-chest?
If something like this happens again in the future, you basically just encouraged everyone to log in, tell all their friends and spent as much time logged in as possible to qualify for gifts, when instead you should just encourage people to stay put and wait for a fix.
I know the dead-horse-memes intensify and everyone thinks "is another thread about this really necessary? :rolleyes-emoji:"
The thing is, I don't expect you to correct this or to send out additional licenses, but please at least show some understanding of why this topic sparked so much controversy and try to handle things like this with a little more finesse if it happens again. This shitshow could've easily been avoided, I even read a news article in my country about it, which was not really good publicity.

@Dumat.1479 said:I have a question: I have 9 legendary armor sets, 9 legendary backpacks, a lot of weapons. What compensation will I get when this update comes?
Don't worry, you'll still have all 9 sets after the update, so there's no need for any compensation. You're welcome!

@Donari.5237 said:The only one of these that a higher level couldn't do was dinging 10 for the first time, since you seem to have to actually roll over to 10 in game. That is, if the higher level hasn't already got the exploration and dodging done. Are you saying you have got 70ish slots, all full with 80s who have all done all the starter maps? If so, you probably have plenty of AP from other sources :)
I have 9 characters (one of each profession), all level 80, all with full world completion, all with dodge tutorial done.If I wanted to get these achievements, I'd basically have to pay an entry tax of 800 Gems for a new character slot that I don't even want or need.Can't imagine that that was Anet's intention here.

They advertised these achievements as being available to "veteran adventurers", and then I log in to find out that I have no way to complete them.Is this really working as intended? These are the first achievements ever added to the game that completely lock out players with all maxed out characters.
Sucks to be put at a disadvantage here just because I played too much in the past

List of achievements I'll probably never get:
- Tutorial Mastery
- Just Getting Started
- Caledon Forest Novice Explorer
- Metrica Province Novice Explorer
- Plains of Ashford Novice Explorer
- Queensdale Novice Explorer
- Wayfarer Foothills Novice Explorer
- Beginner Experience Collection
- Points of Interest
- Learn Dodging

Why must I painfully go through bugged and stalled events for each and every achievement... It's almost as if Anet does this on purpose

Bugged for 9 months now, Lady Shamshir is still nowhere to be found.People give birth to children in that amount of time, can't imagine that fixing this bug is so much more difficult.

Consuming them makes the Otter come out if you have the infusion equipped. I know it's not much, but at least it's a way to show the Otter to your friends without having to wait. I don't really mind them dropping, it's just a single inventory slot and I can easily delete them anytime.
