Are you refering to the purple and gold armors?
Assured that all uncommon and rare armor drops have an unlockable ability.
They said they would fix the armor issues, I don't remember reading anything about weapons.

Yeah, because it's not like Arenanet fix most bugs within like a day with zero down-time, and it's not like they provide you with a fantastic MMO game for no monthly fee. 
Oh yeah, they owe you so much m'lord.

Well, I got one of those just yesterday evening. I didn't really care and I actually laughed but it does suck big time. It happened to me somewhere around Ascalon.

You can get those pre-searing (from the charr) all the time. I thought it was just a pre/post issue. Did you get that post-searing? (I know the screenie is post...)
-woody.

Accolon Pendragon
Post-Searing, yes. I don't remeber exactly where but it wasn't far from Ascalon. It was a Wand or Staff 2-4 or something like that.
Than
Post. Got it helping a Guildmate with the Ashes quest. Got another really crapy purple drop there to. A shield I gave to the Guildmate(before IDing), +12hp while Hexed.
Accolon Pendragon
At least the shield had some kind of upgrade.
Tyil Thunder Arrow
I've seen alot of those quite comical
Accolon Pendragon
What made me laugh was to try to figure out what was so rare about an item that had the minimum damage and that had no upgrades at all...

Yes, they do owe us so much. We're their customers and their product's users. NCsoft has a duty to provide its customers the best experience possible as intended by the product's design. Don't think of product maintenance and the lack of a monthly fee as "favors". Those are not favors. The former, like customer service, is necessary for the success of a software product. The latter is an attribute of non-persistent online games which require less bandwidth and less server-side CPU usage.

It's a pisser enough to "unlock" something, be it a rune or upgrade only to get wood planks or granite slabs when you use your expert salvg kit.....entirely another when you get a Blue/Purple/Gold item and identify it only to have NOTHING, No additional attributes other than base.
I've found two Fiery Dragon Swords that were unidentified that when I identified them...nada, zilch, zip!! That wasn't near as insulting as when my party truly sent Rurik to the netherworld and I got a gold breastplate drop that identified into nothing and salvaged into nothing. that's my only beef with drop consistency....if there's nothing to unlock/or chance to salvg....then it should be a white item.
