Lanterns of Protection - Back Up but no recompense for people with broken ones?

I just find that a little silly :'(

It would be one thing if this wasn't a timed event that you can pay money to accelerate (which I did), but it is and losing 25 points is not insignificant. Please rectify this. I already bought the item, it should work.

    I contacted in-game support and was told they are not trading the broken lanterns for new ones. Nor are they refunding points. Great :blush:

    Are the new ones no longer shard bound? Do they actually work as intended now?

    They better still be shard bound...
    Acknowledgment and accountability go a long way...

    I have no idea! I don't really want to spend another 25 points to get screwed again! XD

    They still show as shard bound

    Hopefully, you don't end up with a shard bound shield, if you transmog to this, particularly if the source was not shard bound...  That would be a downgrade.

    Has the wand of warding also been fixed?

    Consider the broken one as a rare.  Some multi-platinum-aire collector might want it some day.

    @Kyronix,

    Can you confirm the behavior of the wand of warding and the lantern of protection?  Are these both now "fixed" and live?

    @TimSt, I can't imagine the "broken" one being a valuable rare.  Maybe a scholars halo transmog'd to a bone helm, mage armor stripped, and refined would be a valuable rare - only on test center though.

    Glad I like the Orb and Hooks shield better than the Lantern.  
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Could you maybe sell these non-transmog versions to someone who wants to imbue it instead? Or is transmog the only possible use of them?

    Email Mesanna with account name, shard, toon name. Put item on toon when you log off. She may fix it.

    PP lanterns will go for tons of money in a year lol :D

    Why can't they add a description to every item that says 'Transmog-able' ?  or in the context menu , u can check an item to see if its moggable (like trash-can - appraise cleanup points)....
