@eloquentmydear I don't know what the current status is from EA's side. Nick said it was by design so I'm still going with that for now.

I'll check with the CM if there's anything new though

@crinrict  Do you know if there are any updates for this issue?  I know that you had said you were going to check back in May 2021, but I also know that this is not the only issue that you have had to deal with.  Just to refresh - this issue is about not being able to get any of the wand recolors without going into buydebug.  They do not drop in battles and they are never available for purchase at the store.  I know that the collection being marked as completed before all recolors are found is by design as you mentioned - it is pretty common in these collections for them to be marked as completed with a certain base number of items being found even if the whole collection is not found - but this is not the issue that we are trying to convey here.  It looks like the recolors just never were coded to drop in battles or to be purchased at the store.  If I cheat then I can get them in buydebug to fully complete the collection, but I really want to get them through normal game play.  Thanks so much for your time and help.

    @Angelica0501 Nick asked for saves after my post so it's treated as a bug from EA's side.

    They don't give ETAs on fixes though

        Hello,

        Is this still being treated as a bug on EA's side? 

        Out of curiosity, I went through the tuning files of the game just to see if the wands were available as loot in any scenario and am finding that, no, these recolors are not listed as a loot option in any RandomWeightedLoot table or PurchasePickerInteraction. The only place they exist is in buydebug.

        These are not available as loot in Magic Duels, Market Stalls, Familiar Foraging, Magic Packages, or from Search for Tomes interaction:

        229005 magicWand_GP08GEN01_set2 (Wand of the Forgotten)
        229006 magicWand_GP08GEN02_set2 (Wand of The Sylvan Forest)
        229060 magicWand_GP08GEN03_set2 (Wood Wand)
        229061 magicWand_GP08GEN04_set2 (Wand of Astral Creation)
        229062 magicWand_GP08GEN05_set2 (Wand of The Elementals)
        229063 magicWand_GP08GEN06_set2 (Natural Wand)
        229064 magicWand_GP08GEN07_set2 (Marble Wand)
        229065 magicWand_GP08GEN08_set2 (Ancient Wood Wand)
        229066 magicWand_GP08GEN09_set2 (Bone Wand)
        229067 magicWand_GP08GEN10_set2 (Magician's Wand)

        All other Magical Artifacts are available in at least one of the above scenarios.
