Bloodstained Commendations Going Away in Phase 3

Amazing. So you’ll compensate those that weren’t hit by a bug and were just dumb, but won’t reimburse the 50g your dual spec bug stole from me, or reimburse the trinket you poofed from my character after you let me buy it. That tracks. Since when has not having knowledge about the game ever been worthy of being rewarded. Upside down world.

there’s also the chaos bolters who got screwed by transferring

still waiting for my 50g and 12 offerings

Can a similar fixup be made for all the people that lost out on crazy amounts of gold in the incursions?

Yeah this is actually crazy lol.

I didn’t even lose gold over that bug, but the fact that they literally refuse to refund people who suffered from an actual bug while also fixing this issue for people who suffered from ignorance of a game feature is craaaaazy.

Genuinely ecstatic to hear this, I know I was not the only person affected but I will speak for myself and say, from absolutely freaking devastated after logging in Tuesday and learning what happened, to (along with others who were in the same boat) being told that we don’t deserve “having our hand held” by being told everything (despite that being the whole point of the bluepost) and then having someone tell me that I should have read every bluepost ever posted about classic wow since 2019 and not having done so means I am undeserving of ranking up (unhinged thinking wtf lol), to then seeing this, has been quite the rollercoaster ride but I really can’t overstate my appreciation of Blizzard taking care of this.

I am beyond grateful that the devs/CMs recognize how esoteric/arcane a lot of the systems in Vanilla are to those of us whose first classic experience is SoD, and with no explanation anywhere in game to go off of, those of us who are labeled “retail tourists” (despite spending all my time on SoD and exclusively raidlogging to do fyrakk skips for mounts in retail) are bound to fall into such pitfalls without any warning.

SoD has been an incredible experience so far, it’s genuinely been the most fun I have had in WoW in some time, and that’s saying a lot because retail has been excellent in DF! This getting the attention of the devs and getting resolved just goes to show how much players’ experience matters to them - which is something I really, really appreciate.

Thank you so much for taking care of this!!!

Will this apply to characters that turned in 110k but didn’t meet the level requirement?

Awww you lost some pocket change you poor poor soul :frowning:

How about you also lower the cost of the commendations back to 25 copper instead of 1 silver making this farm 4x more difficult for the people who DIDN’T stack commendations. It’s great that you’re rewarding someone’s mess up but also does not feel great that since I didn’t have time to stack up those commendations i have to work significantly harder to get to the point where that person now is even after making a crucial mistake.

I wish we could downvote you.

What about those of us who only pvpd in phase 1 to get exalted with WSG but all that honor went to waste and we did not bother much with STV?

In what way? The blue post is literally saying “You made a mistake, and we’re offering a one-time-ever solution for it because you keep crying about you making a mistake.”

No, Daddy Blizz is babysitting people who don’t understand the system.

they will make this change and the people who made 700+ gold get to keep it but if you lost 50g cause the dual spec bug, too bad :rofl:

Can you please implement something for ranking? Alliance are struggling out here. 440 coins for rank 7 now, bit of an oversight. BG’s are insanely unbalanced and even then you can’t get a proper premade going and ever get a game

Them doing something about it implies they are aware they had a hand in it. Surely even you can understand that?

Imagine still complaining about 50gold when you can make 100g an hour doing no kill hinterlands at this moment lol.

Your experiment cost a lot of actual PVPers their ranks and honor. Please fix this.

They cater to morons that don’t even know to get 15 hks and as a result screw over legitimate pvpers. Gotta love Blizzard.

How did anything that happened in SoD cost actual PVPers anything?

:woman_shrugging:

People who should have ranked up Tuesday did not and people who should not have ranked up did.
