Mysty Meadows.1425 Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 (edited) Will arcane drops change and give ancient now? I have 3 gifts of persistence made hope I don't lose them . Edited August 20 by Mysty Meadows.1425 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysty Meadows.1425 Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 (edited) Wiki still shows unusual coins needed at ancient coin merchants. Unusual still drop in arcane chests too. Lesser and greater. Edited August 20 by Mysty Meadows.1425 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, this is Anet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The unusual coins have been broken since EOD. Edited August 20 by Mysty Meadows.1425 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridian.4983 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Oof...I was wondering about this...and was hoping they'd do Obscure Coins instead. There's no way to change people's coins back at this point...probably not once they've been converted. The solution couldn't be as easy as changing the cost for the Gift of Persistence...could it? Using the Ancient coins might work, but it might break something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unusual coins are a placeholder currency. It started in EOD, then it was showing up instead of Ancient so they swapped them around eventually. Then it popped up in Soto. They used it in making obsidian armor. Now it is being moved to Janthir. See the theme here lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I actually thought about buying Janthir today. Glad I didn't Edited August 20 by Mysty Meadows.1425 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the theme here lol It reads more to me like an easy to convert currency that lets them set everyone back to 0 for a new expansion - like with the green/blue shard split or how there used to be a pof/hot split in raid currencies. just one they are being sloppy when zeroing people out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Yeah that's for sure, same with materials (wanting us to trade it all away to the Zephyrites instead of crafting our Homesteads🙃) But now there may not be much of a choice since they altered the currency; it comes down to not being able to obtain SotO rewards in SotO, since the currency has to be farmed in the new xpac maybe not everyone has. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still in the loot tables so it is not a bug it is as you said setting everyone to zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridian.4983 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 (edited) Ha! Makes sense that the Wizard's Tower currency wasn't converted, otherwise the Gift of Persistence cost may have changed from Unusual to Ancient too. Still...oops.
