Oh, sorry!

I made a big mistake in my post; apparently I was creating tanned hide squares, which aren't a fur of any kind. Hopefully I didn't get anyone's hopes up; but never the less, the glitch is fixed.

I apologize.

. Nothing better than a stealth fix... and a great one it is.

Yeah, I would have to say that this is really funny $h17....assume something is wrong just because you haven't seen it and even going as far as to call the guy a liar.

edit: PS...the downside is that you get nothing else for the salvages.....so 4 equals 1 result instead of 4 different results. Which is still a great trade off if you are looking for fur squares.

I was told that it's much easier to salvage fur from Centuar or Dolyak hides.

lol... yes you did..... but you sure were quick to fly off the handle based on your incomplete knowledge......

Heh, yes you are Jana, stuck to your word... ain't it funny how sometimes it's harder to admit your wrong online where it doesn't even matter and totally anonymous? I've been there many a time

Jana made a statement which turned out to be wrong........ no big deal.

She said lies, not maliciously............. no big deal.

She apologized like she said she would once proven wrong....... BIG DEAL

Yet some folks here still like to kick her while she's down.........typical

The bottom line is this thread confirmed a salvage item surplus problem fix.
Now that is..........mission accomplished!!

Leave Jana alone. Everybody's wrong sometimes. Anyone who thinks that they are not are just.......well, wrong.

GJ Jana, I got your back.

I think it was a big deal, and Jana did step up to try and fix it. IMHO there is a big difference between saying:

"Are you sure? Have you been to the merchant or just heard about it"

and calling someone a liar.

Shagsbeard was being nice, helping someone, answering their question and instead of a thanks he got called a liar it's hard to say that's "no big deal" Especially when these boards are full of people complaining that noone is answering their questions.

I'm just glad Jana got my joke, at least she didn't call me any names...

nechronius · May 13, 2005, 08:18 PM // 20:18

They must have just fixed it. heck, she would have been right a couple of days ago.

I never salvaged a single fur out of any charr hide I acquired (stacks of them) and it just cost me money. So I said screw it and just had armor crafted with scales for fire resistance instead of cold.

Thanks.

Next time, i'll try not to post too quick concerning the WELL posted (yeah right) changes they make -- stealth style

Sheesh.

The patch notes are at www.guildwars.com . They said they made them less scarce. I don't see where the stealth comes from. The only thing stealthy is that they didn't specify how they fixed it. They obviously added a collector, but they may have also increased the drop rate of charr hides and the salvage rate of fur squares from those hides. If they had said "we increased the odds of salvaging fur from charr hides", then I would say it was a stealth fix.

Regardless, it's not a stealth NERF, so we'd be stupid to complain. As someone else said, they aren't as scarce now, and that's all that really matters. I don't mean to try to pick on you Jana, you're just throwing me off with the "stealth" thing.

It may be interesting to note that the higher level items give more results. For instance, I salvaged 4 furs from a single Losaru hide (in the desert). And that's common on the instance that I actually salvage furs.

secretsmg · May 16, 2005, 07:36 AM // 07:36

Yeah but you got to consider where the losaru are located. There's no way a low lvl character is gonna have access to high lvl monster hides for a while. That collector is a big help.
