Vegeta.2563 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 What purpose does it serve having me consume them when I get them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etria.3642 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 You have to have them in your inventory to buy gauntlet tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etria.3642 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Ah, sorry. Was at a convention last week from 31st to 4th. I guess the same reason for the POF currency? Which I have never figured out either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I believe it’s a hangover from the pre wallet days and this was the workaround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoF has been around for almost 2 years, and trade contracts still don't go into your wallet automatically (at least not all).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trise.2865 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Because you need them for crafting certain Guild Hall decorations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Probably because someone at ANet read a study somewhere that says people feel more rewarded if they have to click more on stuff. This would also explain the new customization UI. > @"Trise.2865" said: > Because you need them for crafting certain Guild Hall decorations. The decorations are crafted using Zephyr Lanterns which are bought with Festival Tokens. They aren't using the tokens directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the dozens/hundreds of things ANET devs could be working on to fix/improve, they should spend time addressing this? I mean, part of me wants to know why it took almost a FULL YEAR for them to allow us to send these tokens to our wallets, but I've learned to not bother asking such questions. It is what it is.

This would also explain the new customization UI. It's more that people don't feel rewarded when stuff goes automatically into inventory. The in-game example I use is spirit shards. There's always people complaining that they are blocked from gaining shards due to getting stuck on a mastery despite the fact that shards drop from all sorts of stuff; we just don't see it when it happens because those are auto-consumed. We (collectively) think we'd like it better if we had to spend no time managing inventory for sub-par gear (for our level of play)... without realizing that we'd complain about how little loot we got if that happened.
