New Tome All Pages Unlocked

Gabriel_H · July 9

So, when the new tome arrived I found all the pages unlocked. I surmise this is because the tome points that I carried over (~30,000) were applied before I had 28,000 converted to gold.

I just want to check: Is this intended?

That doesn't even say for next Season, just for "a future" Season. Who knows how long it might actually take to get fixed.

Best guess is that it's a relatively simple coding error related to the sequencing of the end-of-Tome stuff. My main account got "hit" with it and I think @Gabriel_H pretty much nailed it. Autoclaim seems to happen first, so anyone who had autoclaim kick in was probably unaffected unless they had more than the number of points needed to buy unclaimed currencies and collectibles plus the 2K carry-over. My main account had nothing for the autoclaimer to purchase and ~18K Tome Points. The Tome Points went to the new Tome, 2K got held for the carry over, and the rest got converted to gold. I've still only got 2K Tome Points available to spend in the current Tome, but am unlocked up to Page 9 in the current Tome, which matches up with 18K hitting the new Tome before the gold conversion. My alt account had about 1K points carry over (not over 2K to begin with, so nothing for autoclaimer to do) and I'm roughly halfway to Page 2 on the new Tome.

I need to go take another look at my main account's EU character, however. They had the autoclaimer kick in for the Werewolf skill style (I will gripe about that for the foreseeable future, but it's a different issue and still only one day's crafting writs worth of loss) and the rest got converted to gold, but I didn't notice how many (or if any) pages in the new Tome unlocked. I was mostly interested in going "neener neener neener" and avoiding the gate queue by getting that first Thieves Guild quest done while the EU folks were sleeping.

(EDIT: checked that EU character and, yes, eight pages unlocked, which pretty much matches up with their gold payout)

Not anything close to a programmer par excellence (COBOL-68, anyone?), but that's something which can probably be fixed in a few minutes since it's just shuffling a sequencing subroutine.
