I have encountered a minor problem. Several weeks back, I joined the Mage's Guild with my mage. It cost me 500 gold. This entitled that one character of mine to receive a small discount on all items purchased from any town's Magic Shop. It worked for a week or so. But now, my mage seems to no longer a member as no discounts are being received. Is it different here on Renaissance and perhaps is only good for a week or a month before having to re-join? Or perhaps: I had two different characters transferred from my #1 account to my #3 account about two weeks ago. But my mage is on my #2 account and no characters were moved from it. Since accounts are tied to our IPA, could my transfer of characters have caused this? If so, I don't mind paying the 500 again. I just want to know if this was a bug or a hiccup. Thanks, SirLanceAlittle <--- (that's me)
Oh my gosh...you are right. Thinking something had "hiccuped," I tried rejoing the Mage's Guild. The Guildmistress told me "You are already a member." Thus, you are absolutely right my friend, the NPC Vendors are not giving the discount. Thank you Upgrayedd. Man, I am embarrassed. I was so sure I received a slightly lower price on things for a week or two. Sheesh, old-age is getting to be a pain in the back-side, as well as the hips, neck, and most other joints. :? Okay, so now we know there is a bug. Just not the bug I orriginally thought.
This is actually a known issue already. Rammar was working on fixing this system, but something in RL has pulled him away from us for a bit. The other staff is working on bigger issues currently. It should be fixed eventually though.
The guilds currently work in all aspects other than the discount, I am trying to get this fixed by patch 31, or at the latest patch 32.
