Dyes - stacking now, commendations type items - stacking now. Can I get now my scrolls stackable again?

Do we really need "single" patches for all these items? Couldnt ANet do all at the same time?

Speaking of dyes. All of mine stack fine now .... except for one purple dye. I have a ton of dyes and I've moved them all around to make sure the update was working and they all stacked perfectly, until I got to that last purple one. I just don't get it.

What does it say its value is when you mouse over it? If it says 25 gold then it's the dye you got from the dye trader quest and it will not stack.

I have four dyes that don't stack, and only two chars in Nightfall that could have done that quest. I don't know where I got the dye, as I don't keep a log. And also, why the hell would they make dye you get from a quest non stacking when ALL other dye stacks? That's one of the most random retarded and pointless things I've ever heard. Do they want to try and encourage people to not do the quest? Along with SEVERAL other quest that if you attempt them are either impossible to do (bugged, not hard) or make playing, walking, fighting etc impossible (ANY quest with an npc).

The only conclusion I can draw from this new.... system of questing is that Anet doesn't want anyone questing or doing any sort of PvE at all. Which is really regrettable, because heros have pretty much ruined PvP (It's supposed to be Player Vs Player, not AI vs AI.). If I wanted to fight nothing but npcs, I would be doing PvE, which of course I'm not doing in NF because of the many many many crippling bugs.

Oh, I don't know, maybe so that some tard won't keep creating and deleting characters to do the dye quest and load up on dyes?

Thank you Gaile.

I was going to send you pm (as you asked in "dyes topic" and as I did before) but your quota was maxed, so I couldnt ). To check scrolls you can use the same character in-game-name I did send you before.

That is the lamest and least effective way of farming dyes I've ever heard. Seriously, you could just stay in pre and get tons.

First thing I thought about, but I'm most certain that I sold it and a few others right after I heard they didn't stack, and I've only did the quest once. Guess I'll check next time I log in.

Remember there is a quest reward that dosen't stack "to dye for". I'm pretty sure I read that off of one of Galie's posts.

I don't think when its lower price dyes that it matters, if black s whites and silvers wont stack, then its a problem (like me) 2 blacks dont stack for me so i sold em quickly and asked the buyer if they stacked and they did!

About the scrolls not being stackable. I've only had problems with my scrolls from before May 19, when scrolls was made stackable. But thats something that they knew about according to the update notes.

"Made it possible to stack two or more scrolls of the same type in a single inventory slot. (Scrolls created before today's update will not stack.)"

I have stack of stackable scrolls from "past May 19" and the other stack of "lately found" scrolls - these two stacks dont want to join in any way...

I can add some confirmation: it is for sure not problem of coding difference between (Tyria and Cantha)'s scrolls and Elona's ones.

I had a stack of scrolls of some type and get another one of the same type in Tyria today. And this "new one" didnt want to stack with these older scrolls. So it is the problem of some "patch".

It doesnt make difference where I found scroll - on what continent. It doesnt matter.
It makes difference when I found scroll - now, or before Nightfall update.

Ive never left pre lower than lvl 8(halfway to 9), dont feel like staying there for months on end, but Ive never gotten many dye drops. In the 6 characters Ive taken through pre, Ive gotten about 20 dyes, tops. Is that the idea, though? Stay in pre a few months, collecting/keeping only dyes, and little else, if anything? Pres great, and I really like it alot better than post, looks-wise, but Id need to buy another slot for a pre only character, and I still dont have a mesmer, so itll have to wait.

Yup, my scrolls pre-Nightfall and the ones after its release still don't stack. I was hoping it would've been fixed in the November 10th update, but unfortunately not.

OK.. this is not funny anymore.. I have 6 types of scrolls, each one in two stacks... 12 places total in inventory.

Please correct this. I need more space.

I have several scrolls that wont stack either. I like to collect them to use when I start a new character. I also have to use double the space to save some of these scrolls.

err... so anyone else still waiting for scrolls to be stackable again? Been a while and a few updates without this now so thinking this may not be happening. Oh well.

Haven't checked in a couple days, but mine still aren't stacking properly.

I'm sure they'll fix it eventually. It's probably just a very time consuming process to track down the actual problem or they would have been able to fix everything the first time they had to correct these types of problems.

Maybe it's easy to forget these little things... but considering how many little changes and fixes ANet regularly make in updates, I'm surprised this issue hasn't been settled yet.
