I'm absolutely disgusted that SSG haven't offered us any help at all with storing our TR cache items. I have 8 TR caches, most full of BtC items from almost two decades of playing. The last time I got rid of a load of them, SSG brought out Soulforged augments shortly after and rage quickly followed. I have no intention of TRing most of my toons any time soon and I can't play with no slots free so "thanks" SSG

I'm right there with you on this. Literally a month or two before SSG released the whole Soulforged augment update, I had done a feeding/cleaning pass on my TR cache and feed at least 20 of the relevant named items to a jewel. I wasn't happy.

As the saying goes, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

My solution would mean leveling up would not need to be logical or a playable character, given the XP elixir and XP stones. You would get current PL status. Alternatively, you could play to tr point and instantly take levels to wherever you want with the stones after transfer.

Yes, painful to level up to cap, but no play required to get your tr cache back.

My suggestion also would have them provide Hearts in addition to XP stones. 100% bonus xp and 2 million xp stone = heroic cap at 20. The same elixir running + 4 Million XP stones gives you level 30-34 and you then use provided hearts to get TR cache back starting at level 1 (or 15 with icons).

Not ideal as there is work required but hopefully, palatable.

During the downtime we intend to increase the base number of available character slots on the 32-bit game worlds by 2 to help assist with the Reincarnation Cache. The game needs to be down for this work to take place, so we will be doing it during the downtime. If there is more we have to announce we will let you know.

peoples problems with reincarnation cache the great majority of the time is because of the amount of btc crap you guys create that we have to keep around if we want to be able to tr our charactter into different classes...... a new character slot does DIDDLY DUCKUS for that.... do something that makes it so people forced to empty the cache without being forced to tr because of ALL THE FLIPPIN BTC CRAP YOU HAVE SHOVED DOWN OUR THROATS FOR THE LAST DECADE AND A HALF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you told everyone it would be cool.. now its not... FIX IT

And how does this help with TR cache? It's a BTC storage issue. Either you give us enough BTC space to transfer those BTC items from the cache, or we'll have to TR. And that means getting to the cap if you're not there (four of my characters aren't – I thought it was 3, haha), then farm tokens, clean caches, doing the TR on the new server, and leveling it. In each toon.

It's a lot of work and time for something you're forcing.

Am I upset? Yes. You've ruined my summer

:ROFLMAO:

A new toon can carry 40-60 items. TR cache is MUCH higher.

How was the TR Cache not an anticipated/tested issue??

A friend of mine was saying to me this evening, "My husband and I spent a +1 heart on our mains to get rid of that fixed level. And now we have to reincarnate because we have to clear the cache. Why do we have to spend money when they're forcing us to reincarnate?"

There are many problems, Cordovan, that aren't solved with two character slots. I was happy with the way you were doing things until this cache thing happened. Then all my happiness vanished. I don't think you realize the work, time, and money that can cost us.

I have no lives left to TR into. So I not only have to spend time farming a TR heart, then I have to TR for now value and level all the way back to cap. All because SSG can't give us a livable amount of storage OR figure out a way to transfer the TR cache.

needs to be +20 heart and 2 heroic and 2 epic tr boxes per character with a tr cache for everyone..... even thats bs cause then were still wasting 30-60 mins of our own time fixing a fudge up that is on their heads..... that or fix the btc issue for everyone.... simpliest is to give us the boxes to hop right back to cap and take care of any level changes we need to do

and i say 2 of each box because you cant reach level 20 on 1 heroic box as a reincarnate and .... how many boxes does it take to get to 34??? 2,3,4 ????? whatever the nubmer is thats what i neeeds to be

Do you really have 300 BTC items on your character?!? I mean, I guess it's possible but, seems highly unlikely. There were many options that SSG could have chosen to do the server mitigation. They chose one that is a bit more complicated but, gives players a choice of servers.

They could have easily just took the existing servers and said, we are moving the people from these old servers to these new servers. This could be done during a downtime without having any worries of dealing with people trying to log in.

Fair. Would also need the +1 heart after the heroic/epic/iconic hearts.

Yes, each of 14 toons taking an hours or however many tr cache would need = 14 hours of hassle.

If they are unable to gives a bank solution and cannot resolve the cache solution spending we would also need to rerun quests and raid to recover favor and flagging. Yeah looks worse with all of that but I prefer it to going to cap with encumbrances and no room and THEN TR on my time and dime.

This could help in conjunction with making most btc items bta. Even if we have to go through a step like using the legacy alter of the twelve.

By itself I am not sure if it's worth the effort as the issues with reincarnation cache are btc items.
