Champion Cache

Rave the Histborn

Just wanted to thank ZOS for changing all the jewlery I had in champion caches to alchemy mats. I really really wanted those instead of the reward jewlery that I get every month, especially seeing that jewelcrafting is now live. Is there any more gating you plan on doing to screw, I'm sorry I meant "balance" the playing field for your base?

They did it to stop us from having temper mats so fast. I almost didn't claim my gold jewls. Thanks for post what happened, I was curious!

Regardless, you wouldnt be able to research or deconstruct any jewelry that was obtained before today. It was noted in the patch notes. So i would take those alchemy mats instead of 50 gold per ring/necklace. They did you a favor!

Not really, I've got a ton of mats. I PVP'd for the rings, I expected the rings, and we should have gotten them. Introducing a new system then gating us from the start doesn't really leave me happy with ZOS atm. I'm sitting on 100k TV specifically for if i ever need alchemy mats and atm im sitting on so many that i plan on having enough pots to finish rank 40-50 off. This is just an another in a number of increasingly shady practices by ZOS.

"Regardless, you wouldnt be able to research or deconstruct any jewelry that was obtained before today."

I'd also like to point out if it stayed in the cache box and you opened it post Summerset then there's a 99% chance that it'd be deconable. If it wasn't ZOS woulnd't have pulled this move, it'd have been in there like normal just undeconstructable, so i'd rather have had the chances at that vs alchemy mats. If i had to sell them I'd have been ok with that since I was previously aware of those notes. This was jewlery gained post Summerset.
