Maybe i`m crazy. I have, actually had a 15^50 axe 10% furios. I know it was 10% furios since i bought the upgrade on purpose and made the axe from 8% furios to 10% furios.

What do you know, i logged in today and i see my axe Sundering. Wtf? I ain't crazy, i used this axe for almost 2 month and I'm 100000% sure it was furios. So wtf happend today? It's 10/10 sundering, but still, wtf?

And no1 logged into my account, no money or whatever missing. And i`m sure no hacker would be stupid enough to upgrade my 10% furios axe to 10/10 sundering and leave my money, items, etc.


Anyone else who has this kind of problems?

Maybe it's the wrong axe? I don't think that anything could have happened to have caused this, but crazier things have happened.

No, i never ever bought a sundering upgrade ever! And i used the axe in pvp, clicked on it and i'm 100% sure it said Furios spiked axe and not "sundering bullshit axe".

I've done that before, changed something and forgotten about it. Then logged on the next day and at first thought, "WTH?" but an hour or two later I remember and feel silly. Not saying that's what you did, but it sounds similar

You see, if i was a fan of sundering it wouldn't be such a problem. The thing is i never ever used sundering upgrade. Never had one, never bought one. The only sundering weapon i had up till today was a Sundering shadow bow on my ranger.

For axe i use Zealous or furios mainly, and one ele damage haft on 1 of my axes. That's it.

Personally I think sundering is crap. And i didn't salvage a sundering upgrade lately. And it's needless to say that i didn't buy any.

Oh yes, I asked some of my friends if they remeber anything about my white died axe, and they said that it was furios not sundering.

I think he will like my customized spiked axe very much. S/B will be 10982347253648 gold.

Sell it and get the same thing with the Furious upgrade and make a profit. BTW, I'd bet the house that you had Sundering all along.

the fact is this anet have no reason to change the mod... so it must be a error.

the question is who made it ?

a database

or a human mind?

Bet accepted. Send me some pictures of your "home, sweet home" :P. And the axe is customised. Problem is i`ll need to invest another X amount to get a 15^50 axe and a furios upgrade.

Why get another 15^50 axe? Just get a furious mod and slap it on your existing axe.

Your answer is Tanzit's Razorstone for 25 - 30k. You could get a furious mod for less.

I'll take bids on Ole Man Bourbon's bet. Show us a SS of the axe when in was 10% furious.

Yeah it sux to lose the cash, but just buy a new upgrade and place it over the sundering. Problem solved.

I'm afraid that may be the case. Data errors do not happen to single items, a database error would have the effects of a nuclear blast and would require a game rollback.

(You are risking a ban if you complain about it to Anet, BTW)

It crossed my mind to blame Anet. Risking a ban? Why?

For those who post nonsense with ectos and other things: i didn't say it was gone, I said it changed. I`m 100% sure it was furious since i bought the upgrade especially for that axe. And i switch axes in my weapon sets quite often, so i would have noticed that it was sundering not furious.

IMO the database error they experienced might have something to do with this. And it's not global, just affect a small part of transactions, etc.
I`ll file a report anyway and see what response i`ll get.

A warning that a next attempt at scamming them will result in an account ban. At least that was the case with people who have been reporting such things before.

I don't get how it would be scamming if he wants to go from the more "valuable" mod to a "useless" mod... in the eyes of many people.

If he wants it back then it's obviously more valuable to him...

Anet will ban you for submitting a support ticket? That doesn't make any sense.

Apparently, Anet will ban you for silly complaints.

Look, there's nothing they can do. If everyone who sent them an email claiming "I lost such-and-such item!" was looked into, investigated and then acted upon, we wouldn't be playing a free game anymore.

Anet cannot do anything about it. They threaten with banning to cut down on the Spam they get, so only real problems get sent in.

Some addition:

1) I play the game for 10 month now, never asked to revert anything i've done out of my own stupidity. Actually I never asked Anet for anything.

2) Using an item every day (i play 2-5 hours at least) makes me pritty sure of what mod i had on it.

3) I wont send a "zomg g1mm3 me m0n3y b4ck y0u j3rks, 1 l0st item upr4d3 you mofo's". I`ll just ask if it's possible for the mod to change due to a database error or such.

He'd have it just for the sundering mod.

Well, in the vein of computer error, just the other day I used my cell phone to call a friend using a stored number, and instead it dialed some business somewhere. I have tested it repeatedly, there isn't more than one number stored to that name on my phone, and that number is correct as I have used it before and after the event. Sometimes, weird stuff happens.

Just out of curiosity, you didn't find a sundering axe recently, then equip it just to see what that skin looked like? Then maybe forgot that you didn't switch your old one back?

BTW, I'm not saying Sundering is "teh godly uber weapon" mod that most people make it out to be, I just mean I could understand them thinking he's a scammer if he asked for a Sundering mod back from a Furious mod... as opposed to vice versa, seeing as how a perf 10/10 sundering is what, like 40-50k+ right now?

It was those sneaky Kurzicks. Stole it from your inventory when you weren't looking. Never did trust those tree huggers.

j/k I'll go sit in the corner and be quiet now.
