No Mention Of Fixing the Writs that offer Zero Reward???

AyeshaBelladonna

@ZOS_GinaBruno I see many great fixes in today's patch notes, and my hat is off to you folks for having a nice, short, smooth patch today! I also see that a repair is in the works for salvaging the 'Deadly Strike' broken Writs. Again, great news! BUT, what about all the broken writs that have nothing listed? there are Enchanting Writs floating around asking for nothing to be crafted for no reward! I know of at LEAST one person in my guild having this issue and seeing many folks complaining in zone chat. I don't know if this was fixed an not mentioned in the patch or if it is also in the works, but what should i be telling my guild members then? Besides, use/bug and report it that is.

I can confirm the bug is NOT fixed. My provisioner just got a master crafting writ with 0 vouchers.

They all say 0 wits until you remove them from the container. Just make sure you click "goodbye" and don't accept the quest until you check it out in your inventory.

@WolfTickets: You're right! The writ I was referring to indeed switched to "7 vouchers" after I removed it from the coffer.

A bit confusing I think.

I got hit with this bug yesterday when I found my first Master Crafting Writ in a Clothier's Satchel. The tooltip for the item said I had to craft a piece of legendary TBS for a reward of zero vouchers. Which is unbelievably borked. I pressed "R" to get all from the satchel, and a quest dialog for the Writ immediately popped up.

Not knowing any better, and figuring I had nothing to lose with a zero reward item, I clicked the option to start the quest. The writ then disappeared and the quest was added to my journal. But that character is many, many months from being able to actually create TBS clothing, so I abandoned it... which left me without my highly coveted writ and no way to get it back.

When I told my guild about this, and they said the zero voucher reward is actually a bug. Alright, fine--that truly sucks and it seems like a trivial fix on the dev's part to correct that. The thing that really burns me is how I was supposed to somehow know to click "Goodbye" when collecting all items from the clothier's satchel. A quest dialog should absolutely not pop up until I use the item from my inventory. With the rarity of the writs being what they are and the potential for neophytes such as myself mistakenly using one without knowing any better, it would help safeguard us from accidentally doing something we hadn't intended.

I really just wanted to collect the writ from the satchel like everything else contained therein, and continue opening the rest of my crafting rewards and collecting the contents like I always do, not suddenly begin a very special crafting quest on a character with no hopes of completing it any time in the next six months.

no, we're talking about after the Sealed Master Writ itself is in your inventory, not the reward satchel or whatever you get from the first writ. they are still popping up 0
