Sorry, but your thinking here is not correct as the game knows which AA's you had purchased that were autogranted. Those never get refunded when there is an aa refund. People that bought the ranks with earned AA should have them refunded, based on a long precedent.
Going on 2 days without red comment - apparently this is intentional and TLP folk are screwed out of their AA work. Probably not a concern for live as most are likely AA capped anyway.
It's not just TLP that care. We had a lot more than 6 ranks to buy. I think it was more than 6 AFTER autogrant too, and the costs are much higher than 3,6,9. Anyone with mana (except bards)that isn't max AA cares, regardless of server. And Max aas can always buy glyphs (Max aas are currently asking for higher banked cap specifically for them even) Note: prior post I said I lost 223-335depending on class. I think that's about the same effort or more than 45 on TLP, so yeah it matters all the same.
Was not refunded for the six ranks of wizard's Improved Familiar that were removed with the patch. I had just farmed them out within the last week (50+aa). Pretty lame.
I don't agree with: You have to PAY to play for the Autogrant. You paid for this, you should be upset.
You have to pay to get past 1k aas... I'm saying not to expect refunds of AAS when they become autogrant, or the tiers that were autogranted. This is about not getting refunded AAS that AREN'T autogranted, and for many, recently purchased.
Thank you for the report, however, this is not a bug. We've added additional messaging regarding this update in this forum post: https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq...er-clarification-on-recent-aa-changes.289558/
