Lag just took 2.1M off me...

Hello everyone,

I had 4.7M and I went to put something into a guild store for 21k gold. Instead I was hit by a big lag spike and it went in for 210m which gave me a 2.1m gold fee.. So my gold instantly went to 2.6m and the item I put it would obviously never sell for 210m so I contacted support for help to redo the damage. I was coming here to ask people if anything like this has happen to them before and to see what people think are the chances of them reversing this..

I am a completionist. I dont play to pvp or fight people but I do play to max every pve achievement in the game. I had 96% of it done before the update and a large portion left to do was buy the motifs. I even paid really money for the motif they only sold in the store and some cosmetics like the alliance hood. I understand 2.6m (what I have left) is a lot but its not even enough to buy all the remaining motifs I need. With the 4.7m I could of done it and had some spare to keep playing. I was hoping to have bough it all and then just use real money to stay on top of motifs that come out.

With this hit I am unable to even continue playing I think.. I work a lot in real life now so getting millions of gold is not possible for me anymore and if I dont have the 4.7 to get close to the 100% pve achievement mark than my whole reason for playing is both gone and impossible because of one stupid mistake when I got a lag spike.

I really hope they can help and refund my gold back. I will be crushed if I get this close to 100% pve achievements and I need to quit..

Thank you everyone and have a great day.

    I've always had really good luck with support fixing stuff like this. I've never had 2 million disappear but I've had some gold and items disappear while being deposited to a guild bank and support fixed it. They have always been super fast and helpful for me... Just make sure your email to them is clear and contains all of the information! Good luck, hope you get your issue sorted.

    That makes me feel a lot better and I really hope so :)

    That's what happens when you carry around with you 4+ millions. Use your bank, put the 'savings' there and this would have never happened. I hope support sorts it out for you and you learn a lesson. :)

    As long as you gave good details in your request, this should be sorted. There are logs of activity, so it is not too hard to verify what happened. You may have to reply to the emails a couple of times to get this in front of a human and not a bot, but a little persistence on your end should be all you need.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Thank you and everyone for letting me know. I will do and I also have a youtube channel which proves only a few days ago I had 4.7m gold cash and that is is not only 2.6m. I feel so stupid. So devastated.

    It was right after I gave away a bunch of free rings and necks of spellweave arcane to people I was farming with as well, be nice and get owned ha..

    I really hope this works out in the end because its killed my spirit pretty hard.
