The crafting materials are available in the major city crafting areas, but many of us purchase crafting materials near prestige housing, such as Azima Kaddor in SQ, and all the crafting specialist in South Freeport. It's all missing, the vendors are blank. No crafting fuels, Can you look into this? Your friendly crafter
I can confirm this bug. Server: Varsoon NPC: Nipius Malchus, East Freeport No longer sells anything, used to sell sandpaper and coal, and some armor with no stats. Now sells nothing at all.
Wish we could put pictures in. But yes, Varsoon. All crafting suppliers for fuels throughout the cities that are NOT in the main crafting area are stripped of all items to sell. Therefore, you must purchase your crafting fuels from one vendor only in NQ, all SQ vendors are blank on purchase screens, nothing to sell. All vendors who supplied fuels in Freeport are missing all sales items, only purchasable through crafting coalition location.
SouthFreeport: Annia Kaeso - Tailor Nipius Malchus - Armorsmith Shivna Crane - Provisioner. But.... the alchemist and bowyer have their resources for sale still. In South Qeynos - Azima Kaddor - Armorsmith Atiya Kaddor - Armorsmith Gauldry - Shieldsmith These are guaranteed not selling anything, but there are so many, these are just the ones we use close to the Prestige portals when purchasing crafting materials for home decoration and to sell on broker. Can you look into why and let us know if they will be populated again?
Several merchant lists were updated so that they do not sell tiered equipment on time-locked servers, however some of those merchant lists were also where fuels and the like were listed, which should not be the case. This has been corrected for the next update. Equipment not being sold on time-locked servers is not a bug.
Cool, glad to see the fuel come back. The tiered equipment was statless so glad to see it go before it became a problem.
Stateless gear is slowly being given stats. There was gear in the past that had been changed to have stats and it completely destroyed the need for any crafted gear in that tier outside of hex dolls and backpacks.
What sucks about it for me is that it happens to be the only place I could get certain appearances, as an example lets take the Rawhide leather gear set Lvl 1 from the tailor in Castleveiw hamlet.. there is no other leather set that I know of that can replace that appearance. Its quite possible that its not that big a deal for lots of folks but its something I liked. It had no stats with the exception of mitigation, yet there is level 10 stateless gear available from him that doesnt match the mitigation of handcrafted
what is more problematic on Varsoon is ability to accidentaly buy high level fuel, which you can't use. It hurts quite a bit if you buy astral fuel on varsoon - can't sell it back, can't use it for years to come if ever
