Yesterday's unscheduled downtime for Wizard101 left many weekend wizards undoubtedly frustrated, but worse news awaited some players when they logged on this morning, namely missing items. As a result, KingsIsle Entertainment is making sure everyone gets what's coming to them -- but in a good way.
In a post on the Wizard101 forums, Game Director J. Todd Coleman describes the issue and then goes on to say that they will "err on the side of caution" in making sure players receive their hard-fought, and in some cases, hard-purchased with the in-game RL currency of Crowns, loot:
- Any crowns spent on consumables (henchmen, respec service, potions, etc) will, of course, be reimbursed
- We keep detailed logs of all items acquired during game play. We are going to use these logs to re-grant ANY items gained by ANY player during this period -- even if the item was not lost.
- We are also going to re-grant any items moved in (or out) of a Bank or House, just to be on the safe side.
As an added bonus, some players may receive double the rewards, but Coleman admits to thinking that it's a better alternative than running the risk of some players not receiving any items. The missing items are expected to be doled out to players over the next 24 to 48 hours.
