Is there a solution or I just give up and leave , I really was so excited about the weapon no I have no interest at the game at all . :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra.4068 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 If you accidentally deleted them you can email customer service and they will probably give them back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silmar Alech.4305 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 In case you don't get your gifts back from support, you can always take a second character, do world completion with him as well and get another 2 gifts of exploration. Every world completion gives you 2 of these gifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every world completion gives you 2 of these gifts. I think the OP was trying to say that they were demoralized by having spent all that effort, only to find themselves without the very item they need today. It's hard to argue with someone feeling like that; it doesn't really matter if we would have reacted differently or chosen to handle the "too much stuff" issue in another way. So I can sympathize with the OP for wanting to quit. I hope they don't, because I think (a) it's possible that ANet can recover the gift(s) and (b) there's a lot of stuff that's fun in the game without worrying about legendaries.. But... if they are feeling really frustrated, then I hope they do take a break, if only to get some perspective. Games are supposed to help us escape from our troubles, not to add to them.

ProtoGunner.4953 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 New or not on the other hand it was quite naïve to delete this item. Especially if you read the text and see it's legendary status and literally written 'it is used to craft legendary weapons'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etterwyn.5263 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I did the same thing with my first one(s). But it was intentional because I swore I'd never craft a legendary. I've since done world completion on a second toon but I kept the Gifts this time. I'm about 20 or 30 WvW Big Spender dailies away from my Gift of Battle, so I guess I will make one after all. Probably just sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolcolax.1268 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 welp.... its an item you get after completing oodles of maps... its written in not so common violet/purple color... and then theres the description... wouldnt you want to at least keep it as a token of your hard work in completing the maps? or maybe have that instinct to keep it because its name is purple/violet and there arent a lot of them that youve looted? and then... wouldnt you at least be curious and googled the item?

FogAlien.9875 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 I never played and RPG or MMORPG or any other kind before , plus English is too far from my Native language (GW2 not available in my language ) , the first thing I did in the game is world complete because easy to understand , crafting is the last thing I learned , i can't be blamed to not spent too much time in GW2 wiki or google ! It is just very annoying that we can't buy this anywhere or at least have this 2 GOE stocked in Wallet !? is it so hard to do that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardid.7203 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 When someone stops being "new" in the game? I feel a certain curiosity abut that after seeing a "new" player crafting a Legendary, whit most of the materials ready to use and a gift of exploration previously earned.

preacher.9370 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I feel the OP. somewhere along the way I deleted a couple gifts of fleet, or whatever it is for map completing VB, thinking I'd never run all my characters through map completion for all HoT maps. Well, I was wrong, been bored lately and having all the HP's completed via WvW, decided to map complete them on everyone, and now two VB rewards short. On the flip side, I don't see myself making more then four legendaries, if I even make anymore at all, unless the longbow is going to be great looking.

Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Sensationalist titles and overly dramatic postings aside, as long as you have 100% World Map completion, you should be able to get the item back via a customer support ticket.

Right. Legendary is supposed to be a massive undertaking. Not really for "new" players. I'm a veteran since beta and I still don't have a legendary (I chose to spend my wealth on a bunch of ascended instead). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did add Gifts to the wallet, everyone would be screwed. The wallet holds keys and currencies which you can't use in the mystic forge. Everyone has different priorities in the game. I've taken ten characters through world completion, so have 20 gifts of exploration sitting in my bank, but no plan to ever make a legendary. Have you rolled any additional characters? There's a lot of fun to be had exploring the world with a different class. It can be rewarding on many levels, including a chance to earn Black Lion keys for completing each map.

Good will to me would be helping this player get what he needs if I was ArenaNet. There is no reason not to even if it was his mistake. We all make mistakes and this one is correctable with no adverse affect to this game or other players. I am sure someone will argue I am wrong but in the idea that good will fosters customers who stay and play and maybe buy more it would be the best thing to do. ANET help this guy if he decides to put in support ticket. A person early on might not even understand what they just deleted regardless of his mistake or what the wording of this tool tip are. It would be a nice, and kind thing to do if you help him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrilana.1396 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Always check the wiki before deleting something that’s accountbound or soulbound. Anet has been greatly inconsistent in letting players know whether they can trash something or not. In the case of the Gift of Exploration, not so much of an issue as the tooltip specifically states what it is for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanner Blackfeather.6509 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 There's no reason for melodrama. I understand that you feel devastated, but put in a support ticket if you haven't yet - there's a pretty good chance that support can help you. Remember to be polite and calm in your message.
