Good evening!


I was looking to write a bug report on an assortment of items that appear to be missing since - I assume - Patch 5.3, but I'm trying my luck here first. Perhaps someone knows something that I don't.

The items in question are "weathered" weapons (Weathered Burtgang, Weathered Conqueror, Weathered Glanzfaust, etc.) previously rewarded from quests leading up to Heavensward that could be upgraded with Poetics. However, it seems that only the upgraded versions are now rewarded from level 110 weapon coffers, while the weathered variants are nowhere to be found. While that would not make much of a difference in theory, in this case it does, seeing as the weathered versions do not come with a glow, while the upgraded ones do.

I believe this to be an oversight and could not find any information on how to acquire these weathered weapons now, neither on the Lodestone, GarlandTools or Gamer Escape. Drake in the North Shroud still offers the option to trade in the weathered pieces that no longer seem to exist, and I would like to see them returned to the game.
An associate of mine suggested that these items might possibly have been added to Quick Exploration rewards, but I could find no information on this either.


Thank you for your time.
