Chyro.1462 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Am I seeing this correctly that the recent patch removed all mount adoption / select licenses and other mount skins from the gemstore, only leaving the Imperial Crane Raptor Skin as the only mount skin available? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oniontitan.4801 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Were you able to get this resolved? I ran into the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chyro.1462 Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 Not sure if its a bug or not. Cause a streamer I'm watching also only has that bird raptor skin in store now. Is this the case for everyone? Cause the patch notes nor the gem store 'updates' topic mentions a removal of mount skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobx.1758 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Yes, it's the same for everyone, skins are rotating, pretty sure that's not the first time something like this is the case.

Chyro.1462 Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 I mean.. I get rotating. But it seems very odd that there's only a single raptor skin available and nothing else? I feel like whenever I checked store in the past at any point of time there'd be at least a few of the adoption and select licenses available. Just very frustrating cause I finished my skyscale today for my NA account and intended to buy a skin ^^' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randulf.7614 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Does seem odd if not a single mount licence exists. That’s not something I’ve seen before if the case 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chyro.1462 Posted February 1, 2023 Author Share Posted February 1, 2023 So is it a common thing that sometimes there's no mount licenses available at all? Really just curious cause it looks so odd that the mount category is empty with the exception of a single skin. I thought mount skins are one of their biggest sellers. Also that there's no mention of mount skins retiring in the gem-store updates topic, unless I somehow overlooked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobx.1758 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Not sure if it's "common", but it's a thing. I would say it "was" a thing and it might have been tied to lower number of licenses available, but evidently it still is.

But, I’ve likely missed a few updates so it’s possible it’s a rare thing they do. It does seem rather odd though. Surely they would want to sell skins, but they could be seeing if removing them increases sales of the premium one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erapago.4387 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Store rotation person's been asleep at the wheel. We had the same mount packs in the store for 4 months back in late summer/fall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do return a couple of times a year, but they are no permanent offer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, and I understand the conversion; however, rather than use gems that have already been paid for by someone else, I would wager that Anet would like us to purchase more gems instead. /shrug 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really trying to understand your intentions, cause it sounds like you're trying to shame someone for using grinded gold instead of bought gems to get a gemstore item. Like.. what does it matter to you what someone else does to get the stuff they want? 5 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only pointing out that real money is probably preferred by Anet. I wasn't trying to shame anyone. As for what does it matter? Well, I would like Anet to keep the servers running. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
