Not as far as we’re aware no. Nothing has been said about the chests inside the chests. They’ve only directly mentioned the Random ones. The other thing mentioned by Roxx (which she’s been wrong once or twice in this ordeal already) is that if it is still moveable between roster and character right now it will be after the patch as well. And I can confirm that the Leapstone chests I had already opened and placed in Roster Storage are still moveable and usable.
But why would they make one chest roster bound and the other one character bound, to me it doesn’t make sense 
The problem was that the chest are roster bound right now
I really think it doesn’t make sense if they don’t make both chests character bound.
As Ceilin says, it doesn’t make sense. Yes the ones you have now will remain the same, but the new ones inside the new random chest will also be char bound. I mean, whats the point you already wanted to open the random boxes to have a chance at the coin.
This doesn’t apply to the shards since they needed to be kept inside the random chest, but that isn’t the cause of the issue by itself.
Im in agreement. However I’m speculating that it was never the leapstones or support stuff that was the issue its the shards. Consistently in every event and across the board every time shard are “not” shareable between characters however leaps and supports are. I’m kinda of banking on the history of that particular policy rather then anything else. Also the fact they haven’t explicitly stated anything contrary yet.
Idk I think the shards were actually the issue rather then the leapstones. Shards are the #1 block for a most. And history has shown they don’t like characters being able to send shards to other characters. We’ve never ever been able to do that. Anything involving shards being tradable has always been a roster wide buy out to begin with and not a character based one.
I really dont’t think that will be the case, but hey we will see.
I think they will just create new chest with leaps that is char bound and put that inside Frog gamba chests. I suspect that for them it is easier to just do 1 Frog Chest = 300g and not bother with already opened ones that could give either 2 or 5 chests + people could have used some of them or have them on different chars. You could of course still refund it if you tried, but I guess not that many people have them for AGS to care?
Yeah, basically early exploiters get to keep all these mats they got to funnel from however many characters they wished into a single character
While we get nothing but a refund of a gold, when the chests were clearly worth way more than the gold cost
I have more than mixed feelings about the solution. This is so unfair
it won’t matter unless we voice our complaints as much as the people who didnt even have the chance to open the boxes. xD
Honestly it didn’t feel to me like an exploit, but rather buffed Frog for the Anniversary. Yes, mats are cheaper, but what would be the price that wouldn’t make it an exploit in your eyes?
Shards were priced at some point about 55% of market value, but maybe around 65% if compared to other sources that sell cheaper (like Mari or bundles in cash shop). Still good, but that is limited time event that happens once a year, so it didn’t look sus to me. I was actually still thinking if I should buy them, cause I already have close to 1.5m for Artist.
GHL were clear winner here, since we usually get so little of them in free boxes and you could get em at less than 17g, so about 40% of market value, tho I would dare to say that market has them overpriced (to the point that juiced ppl run Kunge). New leaps were already pretty cheap, so that wasn’t much of a deal here. Normal Honor Leaps are kinda overpriced on the market, but at least we get a lot of them in boxes and don’t need much to hone, so they weren’t a factor IMO.
So if half the market price in a yearly event gold shop is an obvious exploit, then I don’t know how expensive it would have to be in order to look legit in your eyes (and still be roster bound).
Also, since most people were probably saving those mats for Artist, it would let them hone her to higher than anticipated ilvl, making support problems at higher raids less of an issue. So anyone complaining that Artist will stay low and only help with support shortage there would be no more. AGS managed to have her relevant despite releasing her so late. What an outstanding move… almost.
For each chest, you can get:
10 or 25 MHL
5 or 15 Solar Protection
4 or 10 Honor Shard Pouch (S)
As of this post, in NA West:
MHL are worth 97g
Solar Protection 216g
Honor Shard Pouch (S) 230g
This gives:
970 - 2425g worth of MHL for 300g
9700 -24250g worth of MHL for 3000g
1080 - 3240g worth of Solar Protection for 300g
10800 - 32400g worth of Solar Protection for 3000g
920 - 2300g worth of Honor Shard Pouch (S) for 300 g
9200 - 23000g worth of Honor Shard Pouch (S) for 3000 g
Per character, 29700 - 79650g worth of materials for 9000g
For anyone able to, 10 characters worth funneled into their main was:
290,700g to 790,650g worth of materials for only 90k
That is definitely significant. Those that didn’t open do not get this benefit. And to further add on insult, they can’t even get tokens for the Seal Exchange this week

but yes I wouldn’t call it an exploit. This is just a term carried over from anyone who experienced many instances of this kind of thing in New World, being used here to vent frustration. Players did nothing wrong. AGS however
Ok, so some regions have high enough market prices that this is actually bigger deal for them. I was talking about EUC prices.
NA West has so many RMTers that it is flooded with gold, making it less valuable. At least in my region it didn’t look like a bug.

Read the damn official news???
This is why you and 90% of the people are completely wrong about this matter.
THis whole issue dropped the leapstone prices by A LOT.
People who want to invest in a future class can STILL Benefit from this by buying leastones off the Auction House. I dont understand why people dont just do this.
Not to mention we also get all that extra compensation.
In EUC leapstones are at the same price they were before the frog.

5 days go was Tuesday, prices dropped because of the new patch coming.
and it still is 57,4 as average price. so can you explain to me when exactly we had the same prices before frog?
What?
Months before frog? We have been having those leapstones for roughly 1.5 months now. What months before? THey started at 90g
Do you even play the game?
Please, at least know what you’re talking about before you act smart. And you response still dsnt make any sense.
Also, good job flagging my post, shows a lot about your character.

How did my post get removed within 5 minutes of posting this when there is only some random dude liking your unreasonable posts and you ?
Also, it’s obvious you are not playing the game. When brel released those leapstones went for 80-90 gold on the first week.
You are a prime example of why this community is so toxic.
people missinformed, that dont even play the game, come in here act smart without any context whatsoever.
