Miscellaneous: PBDT

[Foemike]

I stopped playing for quite a while (sometime between 9 months and a year) and have just recently started up again. In my inventory is an item called a PBDT with no stats where my Platinum Blue Diamond Tiara used to be. I don't know how or when this happened, but I would greatly appreciate if it could be fixed or an explanation given. Thanks in advance.

Blue Diamond jewelry either didn't exist or didn't have stats until Velious. Forget which. Either way, it was patched to statless until era appropriate.

Working as intended. Blue Diamond jewelry was not in game until after the release of Velious. Rather than deleting all the BD items in circulation, the devs renamed it and made it statless until the appropriate point in the time line when the recipes become active. Just bank it for now as it will revert a short time after Velious drops.

Ok, thanks to the people who responded to the proposal.

This is now complete and will be active next patch.

Pending update:
All blue diamond jewelry combines disabled until ~January 2001. This would be a ~ month after velious release and will be automagically enabled when they time came.

Existing blue diamond jewelry (statless) will continue to exist. I am not sure if anyone made any of this or why they would, but I see no reason to change it.

Existing blue diamond jewelry (with stats) will be replaced with alternate statless versions until ~January 2001 when they would automagically become respective jewelry with stats again.

For example:
Silver Blue Diamond Ring: statless -> no change
Silver Blue Diamond Ring: with stats -> Will become SBDR, ring slot, no stats, tradeable.

Blue Diamond Electrum Earring: statless - no change
Blue Diamond Electrum Earring: with stats -> Will become BDEE, ear slot, no stats, tradeable

Golden Blue Diamond Pendant: statless -> no change
Golden Blue Diamond Pendant: with stats -> Will become GBDP, neck slot, no stats, tradeable

Platinum Blue Diamond Tiara: statless -> no change
Platinum Blue Diamond Tiara: with stats -> Will become PBDT, head slot, no stats, tradeable.

Velium Blue Diamond Bracelet: No change. Cannot be crafted yet because velium bars are not obtainable. Recipe disabled until ~January 2001.


After the patch if you see a link for GBDP, you will know that shortly after Velious launches it will become a Golden Blue Diamond Pendant with stats. I did it in this way so people can still distinguish between different versions.
