bonus mark weekend

[Tantrasil]

<p>Anyone else notice that at the end of a match it will say you got 60 or whatever number of marks but you actually got less? Just curious if anyone else is getting screwed over as well.</p>

[Tantrasil]

<p>Bump. Still happening</p>

[Cherri]

<p>This has been happening since the game update. Matches were awarding 5 less tokens than they should and now with the bonus weekend its 10 less tokens.</p><p>Seems the bonus weekend is actually making everyone lose more tokens than earn more.</p>

[EvilAstroboy]

<p>Yep. Added some pictures to show. A lot of people might not be seeing the chat text that shows they are getting less.</p><p>And before the silly comments go in, no the matches were not short, no I did not come in late, and yes I contributed to the objectives. The game just blatantly lies about how many you get at the end of a battleground.</p><p>Should have gotten 46 tokens in both battlegrounds in the pictures, only got 36 tokens. This has been the case since the GU. Also isn't there supposed to be bonus tokens this weekend? It is awarding no more than earlier this week.</p><p><img src="<a href=" /><img src="http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n599/evilastro/EQ2/EQ2_000020.png" border="0" />" /></p><p><img src="<a href=" /><img src="http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n599/evilastro/EQ2/EQ2_000022.png" border="0" />" /></p>

<p>keeping this bumped until we hear a response from a dev.   hopefully we get reimbursed because getting less marks during the bonus weekend compared to the regular time is a little ridiculous.  Thanks for the screenshots also, that's exactly what i'm seeing happen also.</p>

[Tantrasil]

<p>Bump</p>

[Cherri]

<p>It is quite annoying, so far im down about 700 havoc tokens.</p><p>With how expensive the pvp gear is that makes it worse :S</p>

[Tantrasil]

<p>Last bump since its going to be over in a few hours</p>

[Xzerius]

<p>Was coming to the forums to post something about this as well.  Same problem here and everyone else that I group with from my guild or discuss it out in  OOC in Champs Respite.  Cannot even begin to total up the loss of Marks.</p>

[Tantrasil]

<p>Tell everyone to post on the forums. Its the only way someone important will pass the message along. The more the better for this to get attention. I thought it was just the bonus mark weekend but its still happening.</p>

[Serreg]

I honestly thought it was just my account. Was even going to consider doing a petition today. At least now i know its a over all thing with the update and not just me. Any idea if they will randomly give us a fix amount of marks or just tough luck and keep playing.

[Rageincarnate]

<p>same.  Lost hundreds of tokens.. but i kept playing anyhow.. If people get geared before me i'll just splat everysingle time i login.</p>

<p>Thanks for the screenshots/details on this one it was really helpful in finding a fix. I found the problem and fixed it, but didn't get it in time for tomorrow's update. It is actually just a display issue. The message in the chat window, and the number of tokens awarded is correct, the number in the leaderboard window is not correct unfortunately. Again, sorry about that, but everyone is getting the correct number of tokens, it is just displaying a number too large in the leaderboard window. Watch the update notes for the fix.</p>

[Cherri]

<p>Thankyou for getting back to us <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>Also was the bonus weekend meant to be in effect because I am now earning more tokens in the chat window after the bonus weekend.</p>

Nagafen is starting to get a lot of gear now for the battlegrounds. 36 tokens for a BG compared to 25 tokens on Nagafen for a solo kill. Theyre earning them much faster than the non pvp servers.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info, Maevianiu.  That's a sucky error to find after the update went live!</p>
