This is not a Rant, some potions are vanishing.

[Veril]

Veril, if you have destroyed them then they are destroyed, yes. If by chance you have thrown them into a random inventory slot on a mule, though, I found a work-around for that problem.

Quite by chance I discovered the same thing. But only after I had destroyed something like 1000 potions. I managed to save 200 or so. /cry

I did /bug the issue at the time.
I didn't consider it an exploit, it just made the potions work as designed.

[Ngreth Thergn]

actually. I am not sure an items patch has made it in If not they are still stuck at 20. I really wish that this particular mistake had not happened, and I am sorry for my part in it (the stack size 20 was my part in it )

[Gaell Stormracer]

The Formed Suspension of Toxin VII for sure DO stack to 100 as of last night...

[Greeznok]

1946 Spherical Bottles
800 Ensnaring Sphere VI

Present and accounted for, /whew.

I had these on a mule before PoR release and had not logged her in to check until just now.

But is that recipee gone forever now?

Stacks of 100 are working 100% certain. I made another 400 for my monk to pull/split with and they are stacked in 100's

[Ngreth Thergn]

OK Good. Was not sure if that made it in one of the emergency patches.

[Angelsyn]

Anyone heard back on whether the GMs have been notified of this and what to do?

I put in my /feedback like the GM who responded to my /petition said I should, but I haven't heard anything since.

Should I also do a /bug report?

I really hate being out 153 Ensnaring Spheres (or Shaped Suspension of Slimes), and I know there are others who responded on this thread with similar issues.

Any opinions?

[Dyllwin]

It was a bug with the tool that did the conversion

Unfortunately your only current resource is CS. (a petition asking to get an equivalent amount of items) I asked Maddoc to talk to them about it.

Unfortunately, past that... I do not know what to tell you I wish I had more.

Unfortunately I was also told my only recourse was doing /feedback for the devs. Has the story been changed and CS made aware so that if I petition again I may get a different answer now? Anyone else have any success with a petition in regards to this issue since Ngreth posted this?

Potions in bottles goes poof.

It seems almost funny to me that all of the formed and spheres are the only ones to have taken a hit.... Being they were the main ones to use the old bottles and being they were the ones that could stack to 100... and the snare pots was one of the only ones I actively used as a commonplace ... now I have a total of 5 of the snares left (reduced to one per stack no matter how many initially in the stack of any formed of sphearical)... all the concotions (albeit last I logged to check) unchanged and therefore still the full amount, instead of reduced to zero... such a good patch.
Esp knowing how cheap and easy to come by mature silkworms have always been, I mean I could forage a stack of them if I was auto-conta-forage X2 bots all with Bounty 3, and forage maxed in say..... 3 months or so, and baz prices were soooo cheap, I gladly pay 500 to 1200 plat for a single mature worm.

Hope everyone had a fun time grinding out all of the precious combines before they became worthless.... Heck maybee this is like the guild bank, and after crying, and whining and complaints enough roll in a reprieve will be granted for all of us who have /bug /petition /feedback.... Oh wait, sorry I forget who the dealer of this lowball poker game is... in the house rules, if the dealer flips your card over you don't get a new on, instead you loose automatically and forfeit your bet
Maybee something will be worthwhile in this revamp, but the initial headache is a bit much, happy hunting for those recipee's I'm gonna go poison my neihbors now

From 100 to 1 (and back again?)

Much like Ppatti, I have lost many hundreds of potions, many of which had been combined with vials for added distance. Like Angelsyn I have petitioned and been told to /feedback with no word on the outcome. I did /bug this on launch day.

I had a huge range of throwing potions. I had 3 types (slow, snare and flame), 3 levels (IV, V and VI) and 3 types of vial (none, hand formed and sphere). Mix and match these variables and you come up with 27 posible potons and I had most of them covered. When I went through all of my inventory, I found that not all of the throwing potions were converted on launch day. I have some stacks of "old style" throwing potions still in my inventories. From my experience, all of the throwing potions which were converted have the same problem as everyone else, dropped to one per stack regardless of how many were in the stack before. However, in every case where the throwing potions were NOT converted I still have the proper amount of potions per stack. I have not seen anyone else mention this yet.

I am dreading the day that they do the rest of the conversion as I still have "old style" potions to loose! I am going to write down exactly how many of these potions I have before the next patch day.

Based on how many people this has affected I hope that the Dev's are working on some sort of compensation plan. The longer it takes though, the less and less optimistic I am that there will ever be any compensation for an error that punnishes us the players for something that the launch patch messed up.

Is there any word on this?

I'd really like to get my potions back, even if my losses are meager compared to some other people's.

I don't want to submit another /petition (and waste GM time) if I'm going to get the same result (submit a /feedback) again.

[Turlo Lomon]

I am not primarily an alchemist, but I got hit by this on my main. An entire stack of potions disappeared from his inventory. In addition, 2 stacks disappeared in the bank.

On my alchemist/bazaar mule, I had some potions convert, some potions disappear, and some potions stay the same.

I experienced the same problem as others stated above. They are unable to assist in reimbursement.

[Ngreth Thergn]

I spoke With Maddoc about this. I do not have more information for you yet, but he is now more aware of this than before.

We agree you should get a refund, and he will be speaking with CS about it. I do not have an ETA yet on this.
