Missing key fragments. Anyone else, or was there a chg I didn`t realized?

Tazzy

I am missing all my stored key fragments (deposed them into a treasure box). Also received some today while doing the endeavour in imperial city, but nothing is not stored in my chars contens.

With the last patch they were converted into a new currency called "Imperial Fragments" - you can find them under the currency window, where all the other currencies (gold, AP, TelVar etc.) are displayed.

According to the patch notes you were supposed to take them out of storage in order for them to be converted, but apparently they converted automatically - at least that was the case with my key fragments.

Ah alright! @Myrnhiel - Thank you very much. Didn`t noticed that!

Yeah, I was taken by surprise as well, since I haven't been on the PTS in ages and don't read the Patch Notes like I should.

The new system is an improvement, since stacks of Key Fragments no longer take up inventory, bank, or storage chest slots.

But as for using the new Imperial Fragments, I haven't looked into that part of it yet.

There are vendors in the IC treasure vaults (and maybe in the sewer bases?) that only accept Imperial Fragments and have some permanent items and some rotating stock of goodies. Every vault and vendor sells slightly different stuff, to encourage you to visit them all. I have not visited them at all because I have been doing hallowjack stuff.

My question-- which is a concern I saw others raise in an older PTS forum post-- is how do the fragments work when I enter a vault? I have thousands of Imperial Fragments and I don't want all of them to be converted into something that must be spent in a specific vault the way the old Key Ffagments did.

If you're not sure how something in an update works and you know you haven't read the patch notes that's a good place to start looking for the info.

"Imperial City Revamp
Imperial City has gone under a comprehensive reward restructuring, as part of a major overhaul to how PvP item sets can be acquired.
The first major callout is that Imperial Keys and Imperial Key Fragments are being converted to a new account-wide currency called “Imperial Fragments”. Keys and Key Fragments will be automatically converted from your inventory, or when they first go into your inventory from banks, guild traders, etc. Going forward, enemies will also drop this new currency instead of either keys or key fragments. Unlike Tel Var, you do not lose this currency on death.

Another major callout is vault doors in both Imperial City and its dungeons (Imperial City Prison, White-Gold Tower) are no longer gated by keys or key fragments. You can now freely enter vaults without having to worry about fragment conversions or having keys.
Inside the vaults are new vendors who have replaced the treasure chests. This is where you can spend the new Imperial Fragments currency. These vendors contain many of the spoils usually found in the vault chests, as well as some additional item sets and other collectibles. Sets are spread out across all six vaults, as well as in the two dungeons, so everyone is encouraged to make sure to hit all the vaults to get access to what they need."
