ActionHank.9543 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Hopefully they have a way to track this and restore them, lost a bunch of frostbitten tools that were sitting on my characters inventory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaskin Forrit.2185 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 My frosty tools are also showing 1 rather that 50 (or whatever they should be) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I used a few tools before noticing; after awhile I just could not believe my characters all had just 1 use left on tools in inventory. I checked the bank, and all those tools were affected, as well.Although it's not a big issue, I hope we get some recompense.Thanks in advance.

No bueno!!!!!!!!!!We will make that right!No worries. Just glad I was able to test it out and warn group members not to use them for now. Thanks for the heads up!

klep.4165 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Yeah, lost quite a few gathering tools trying to see if just on one character, region or not....oh well......its only coin:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buy Some Apples.6390 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Just realised this after the game claimed my character had no tools after gathering from each node.And then when replacing them the same happened after a single use! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krigjeger.4396 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 And this affects the tools from the Laurel vendor as well!?! ARG, popped one mining node and poof my tool(s) used up. Glad I didn't harvest anything else. Only 2 laurels per bundle, but damn its still 2 laurels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oenanthe.6549 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I've just had the problem with a few tools. i was using up old ones (darksteel or steel ones I think) on a leveling character and it was only after i had had to replace the tool after every gather a few times did I realise that I wouldn't have had that many single tool stacks that I realised I had this happening.I went and bought a stack of Iron axes to see if it happened with newly bought stacks and i'm happy to say that that stack seems fine at the moment. I have also just exited and relogged back in and the stack is still there, so it might be that stacks bought after the patch are ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilZander.1964 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 yea cause I had a stack of 50 lumber axes or volatile magic but it went away after 1 use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soggy Biscuit.9372 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Just blew 2 slots of new Unbound tools. Just so happens I bought 30 or so of them yesterday; hope the bug fix will restore the original charges. Thx & love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alimar.8760 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Name says it all. My orichalcum sickles I use for farming specific nodes that I've strategically placed characters at, have suddenly lost their durability! From 50 to 1 single use on every one of them.

Alimar.8760 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 This also includes any tools equipped to the character and not just sitting in the inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buy Some Apples.6390 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Patch seems to have fixed this, but what about the the ones we lost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astralporing.1957 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Will you be sending the replacement recording devices as well? (i have currently 0 of them, used that one up before i noticed the problem, which means i lost 19 of those). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cragga the Eighty Third.60 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 After the latest fix, the character who suddenly had a bunch of one-use tools in his bag was back to having fully-charged ones.Did not bring back the missing recording devices, though, and those people who lost 'special' harvesting tools have a right to be cheesed off. (Especially the laurel ones or ones like the frosties which are not currently replaceable.) I assume asking support to replace them will be the only viable option, but I kind of worry about how badly support will get flooded with replacement requests.

Necrid.6247 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 i can live with the 2-3 frosty tools i lost, but the 20 recording devices i lost are a pain to regain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodstealer.5978 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Good turn around on the fix for the tools anet.. I was kinda thinking something so basic on appearance would be much more problematic to fix bearing in mind the number of players likely affected and those that already used tools without realising, but a good compromise for that offered as well.. so a job well done.Dang all these well done's I have offered this past 24hrs.. I need to go lay down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash.2681 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Any update on when ppl will get their gathering tools refunded? Though neither my wife nor myself had big losses, it would be nice to see A.Net keeping word and sends affected players tools to substitute the lost ones :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
