So we should have 3 full sparks by now but many of us are at 2 sparks or 2.5, me personally at 2 sparks full, dont know where to get the other one it seems to be bugged or something but seems like needs a fix.

For people at 2.5, they might not have picked up the 1-time quest by the catalyst converter. They gave a freebie due to an exploit (but also gave it to the exploiters, thereby making it pointless, but whatever).
This is separate from the once-per-season freebie they drop at the start.
I’d hope anyone less than that just thought they got it from a weekly and didn’t or something, and are able to get it as a drop from content as that’s how the catchup normally works.
I"m stuck at 2 sparks should have 3 so just dont understand what going on lol. I have done raid and mythic+ and delves and everything I can but no spark catch up.
Have you done the weekly for THIS week and have you done the 1-time quest I mentioned?
Yes have done both
Did u craft anything? Like weapons?
Nope have only crafted two pieces that each took one spark
If you missed a spark from a past weekly quest it lets you find it randomly from a number of activities.
The only way you will have 3 is if you’ve gotten both of the free halves and also done this week’s pinnacle chest quest. The catch up only works for the previous weekly halves that you haven’t collected.
1/2 from initial quest that turns half into a full
1/2 from catalyst NPC because of glitch/exploit
1/2 from this week’s pinnacle chest quest
1 1/2 from previous weekly pinnacle chest quests/catch up
Part of me thinks it had nothing to do with the exploiters and everything to do with the fact that they messed up and lined the catalyst/crafting weeks up. We’d have nothing every other week, which feels miserable. The exploiters were just a convenient excuse to mask the fact that they knew they messed up.
What do you mean? It worked that way in S1 when they revamped how we gained catalyst charges and they could have changed it for S2 if it was a screw up.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. There’s still plenty of power to gain in those offweeks
People didn’t complain last season mostly because crafting was not worth the cost to do so, and thus was a last resort. It’s why the crest changes were made, giving people the option to craft without taking a net-negative hit to their crest caps.
At least anecdotally, I heard nothing but complaints from people around me about the idea that they were going to get nothing the next week. Not having the option when it’s actually a good thing to do is way different than having the option but it being a net-loss on something severely time gated like Gilded crests.
What? Crafting was absolutely worth it last season. What are you talking about? Embellishments and some of the items you could craft were definitely things you wanted to have.
But regardless, no, it was fine that season and it is fine this season. People weren’t going to complain that you got catalyst charges and full sparks on the same week.
But we can talk about the complaints from however many people have complained to you just in case. What’s the solution to that? Delay catalysts until week 2 or do you not get a full spark until week 2? Which penalty do you want to pick? I’m pretty sure far more people would complain about having one of them delayed than having them both on the same week
this week none of the usual weeklies gave me the shard.
i had to do the sparks of war pvp quest for it. weird.
I’m assuming you got it after this thread cuz you’re wearing 3 fortune crafted pieces now?
