View Full Version : Inconsistent collection quest rewards: one legendary, one treasured

<p>Not sure if this is the right place for this. I'm running another team up through the levels and trying to let them earn their own gear. Got them doing all the collection quests. Since the recent update, many (maybe all?) the collection rewards are offering one updated, Legendary item and one old, treasured item. This can't be right? Will this be fixed? In many cases they would use the item intended for their class, if it had been updated like the other, legendary item. For example:</p><p>Drogan Bauble - 20 wis/int, 14 sta, +420 vs arcane, level 67</p><p>Nurgan Bauble - 38 str/agi/sta, +1440 vs elemental, noxious, arcane; +4 defense/deflection, some blue stats, and also level 67</p><p>This can't be right? Miss Warlock would happily use that Drogan Bauble, if it had similar stats to that Nurgan Bauble.</p><p>I don't like to complain but this is widespread. At first I was picking the item they'd use, assuming it would be updated soon - but they are quickly outleveling everything, in which case I'd rather pick the legendary and transmute it. And, ask anyone, I'm a super slow leveler!</p>

<p>I was wondering about that. Did notice also several collections rewarding with a choice of  Legendary, or a Treasured item of significantly lower stats.</p>

<p>i'm quite sure it just was missed by the RNG stat calculator script.</p><p>keep in mind there's 10's of thousands of items that had to be scripted to update, if not hundreds of thousands. some things obviously got missed, others got incorrect stats and some need to be tweaked because the level of buff was inappropriate. in some ways this was necessary because it would take too many man hours to change them all by hand.</p>

<p>Personally I wish they would offer more house or weird items as an option on collections. Nearly all the gear rewards don't fit anything I have or are useless for the level.</p><p>Some quests still don't have ANY rewards, such as the Regal Butterflies and other Burynai error collections.</p>

<p>Thanks for all your responses! I know there's tons of items. Just seems quite odd to me: one upgraded item, one not. I don't know how the scripts work. I also didn't see anything on the forums to indicate this was a known issue, so I figured I'd point it out, just in case. Maybe they just need to run the script again? I have no idea, it's probably some crazy complicated thing you can't "just run" but I don't know! No harm in pointing it out, right? =)</p><p>Maybe I'm the only one who tries to let my alts be independent? They DO use the collection rewards as they are level-appropriate upgrades. I know I don't need to play this way but I find it fun! It is quite disappointing to see a lovely upgrade, and then realize, with the stat change thingy, that the upgraded item has the wrong stats for my class.</p><p>If I'm the only one this affects, well, I'll cope just fine and continue with my crazy ways. Just would be nice to have things upgraded. Thanks for reading!</p>

<p>This is a known issue. We are working through them as quickly as we can.</p>

<p>I was just about to post this very item just turned it in.</p><p>Also the rewards from collections that do not have no trade things really should be heirloom if anything definately not no trade.</p>
