you did not. I don’t know what the new s2 currency is (yet), but s1 gear would not use it up

logging in to give this a whirl myself
Idk if it’s going to be, tbh. I went back and catalyzed some DF stuff a few weeks ago and it still had charges and I was depleting them.
I’m only speculating, but your post answered my question if it was uncapped now.
I did waste a S1 charge on boots expecting to be able to level them up to mythic 
Should’ve just leveled them up yesterday but I was waiting to see what was in the vault.

The best part about your laughable post is that you didn’t even bother to try to comprehend what they said. The world being in a “season 2 state” means nothing about season 2 weekly activities being active yet.
Except it’s not 100% false. What we’re being told is the season 2 world gear is what’s taking priority here vs. the instanced-form gear of season 1. I agree, this is nonsense. But just because season 2 instanced content isn’t around yet doesn’t mean the world content isn’t season 2.
all you needed to do was expressly state “season one gear can no longer be upgraded on the release of patch 11.1”

they fixed this today, actually. s4 DF catalyzing is uncapped now.

It seems like you could just make S1 gear upgradeable with a small amount of valorstones and remove all crest requirements. That would also create a catch up path for people who played part of S1 but didn’t fully upgrade.

This is actually genius and I approve.

Good idea! If we can update for free, even better.
I would just like to know if we will have more charges to transmog season 1 equipment next week. Does anyone know?
Just remove all cost honestly. Everything you upgrade will be behind after next week so just allow everyone to max upgrade whatever gear they get this week for free to be ready.

Because its never functioned like that.

Just want to say you could have told us …
So the currency ecosystem and world quests are in S2 mode while everything else like dungeons … etc. are still S1 mode.
Why was there no communication that we would be entering a S1/S2 hybrid state and what would be shifting to S2?
We couldn’t even get a list of currencies being wiped from you guys.

You should honestly just add a currency or some kind of profession item, that we can use on an item from a past season to automatically upgrade it to it´s max level.
Like the Relics of the past

And then you’d have the uproar over “I WASTED my valorstones on obsolete gear!!!”

Soooooo I understand this on a technical level I guess, but would it have killed ANYONE to communicate to the player base that this was going to happen? You obviously knew that this was going to be the case, people were asking for clarification. Now we have dead vaults and dead currency people were banking on using. You mention that it is frustrating, which it is, but it only is actually frustrating because we are finding this out AFTER the patch has come out and the change has gone through. If it had been announced before people wouldn’t care nearly as much

Patch comes out, previous season is over. That’s how it has always worked.
Old gear can’t be upgraded, that’s how it has always worked.
Currencies tied to gear and power reset, that’s how it has always worked.

Undercoins and Delve Keys haven’t reset. It’s really difficult to believe this when a Season 1 currency we know is going to reset hasn’t reset yet.
They did this in DF too, and I think past expacs but most of them are becoming blurred bad memories so can’t recall.
Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s hilariously bad planning, but yeah this is expected.
Sorry if you weren’t aware but expect it for s2>3 down the road.
