Steps:
1. Set to Stock Mode for voidstones, had about 0 or Stones in stock
2. Defeated Beguiling Radience with White Proc, recieved Dusky Periapt of Exploraiton
3. Checked my stock of Voidstones under Status > Currency, the quantity had not changed.
At this point, it is my understanding that on receiving the Periapt of Exploration KIs, the server retroactively recalculates my voidstone stock as if I had had the periapt the whole time.
I already had Vivid Periapt of Exploraiton, and had registered to start receiving Voidstones many years ago when they first came out.
Based on that, I should have dropped from a 16 hour cooldown to a 12 hour, which should have increased my voidstone stock by a significantly noticeable amount.
This did not happen, so I did a few more experiments
4. Ran back to Voidwatch Officer in Southern Sandoria, chatted with them about my Voidstone Stock, they also reported the same 0 number to me.
5. Swapped from Stock mode to Key Item mode, then checked my stock with the officer again, still 0.
6. Finally swapped back to stock mode and a final check, still 0 at Officer and Currency screen
Players have informed me when they in the past got this KI their stock increased, which leads me to believe this is a critical bug causing players to lose what looks like thousands of Voidstones, which is pretty frustrating.
Based on discussions with players, this bug seems to go back roughly to when the Stock system was introduced to Voidwatch. I have not encountered a player who encountered this bug when not set to Stock mode.
If someone could test this on their character by getting the KI while set to Key Item mode and not Stock mode, that would be awesome.
I have used the info from a previous member as the exact same issue happened to me right down to the steps to fix.
