Gonna start out by letting people know that helix components changed and you have to take the old ones to the Gree vendor and exchange them for the new ones (1-1), and then right click to consume and add to your currency tab. Well I did this on my sin and after seeing the first go in and show up as "Binds to legacy", I spam clicked the rest. Turns out they do not bind to legacy and my sin is the only one that has access to them now.

 

It's a somewhat minor inconvenience, but still annoying.

The ones you buy from the vendor are there for moving them between characters. The BBA event Completed Bounty Contracts are the same.

Pointless change is pointless - if they want event tokens to be a currency, make them an actual legacy currency.

 

Otherwise change it back - trying to remember which character has which currency so that character can go buy the new legacy items to send to another character so that character can use the items to add them to their personal currency so they can then go buy something from the vendor is just a giant annoyance.

 

Why waste resources making a change that makes things worse and less convenient?
