Bazaar - Arcane Builder Revisited question

[ttv/VirtuallyBob™]

Hail Exiles!

So new to today's bazaar (4/23/24), I see the Arcane Builder Revisited set is available (again, as these were from a previous Battlepass, maybe - see below?). Now my issue isn't with the possible missing door frames (as reported on the official forums). My question is as follows:

Are these pieces the same as offered from the previous battlepass or are they 'new'?

The reason I ask is that I believe I already 'own' all of these pieces from completing the previous' BP; however, in the Bazaar the set is displayed as not 'owned," displays a cost of 602 Crom Coins and there are no check marks to indicate that I do own them. Is there a piece within the bundle that I don't own and/or is new? Is the entire set a new variation on the OG set? Is this just a glitch?

Thanks!


EDIT: this set is a recolor/reskin of the OG battlepass items. The lighter color is the 'revisited' variant. Image here:

BP sets that you buy in different occasions have "internally set" prices for each piece, even if they are never sold individually.
When you see a bundle that features items you have and items you do not, the price is adjusted accordingly by the price they attribute to each piece.
They are the ones making the estimates, but still a very nice system.
I have multiple accounts so I can see the prices for my account that has nothing bought and my account that has the stuff bought.

I have for example the dungeon set since it was first offered, and then the new one comes up, it has a discount over the pieces I already have. The full price is "almost" the same as adding what I am buying now and what I bought previously in my account that has nothing bought, so it seems the thing works fine.

There are differences of price due to inherent discounts they might apply to people buying additional pieces from the ones buying for the first time.

The Real Money value change of course based on your currency inflation and other aspects determined by funcom and steam alike.

Thanks but that did not answer my question.

I understand how the pricing is lowered if one already owns some of the pieces.

My question is regarding if this is a NEW SET or not as I already OWN these as these were offered in a previous BATTLEPASS.

If this is a 'new' set, is it a variation of the Battlepass version of these pieces or is there maybe one or two new pieces offered that wasnt included in the previous battlepass?

Or... is it a glitch? I checked again and I think I already 'own' all of these in my ancestoral knowledge. So then why is the bazaar stating that I do not 'own' them? New set? New individual piece or glitch?

And the answer does exactly that.
If the bazaar shows you -own- something, you own that. But if you bought the set in a previous date whit LESS ITEMS, you might own part of it, but not the whole of it, so it does not show you own it, instead it marks the pieces you own and charge the pieces you dont.

So, the bazaar is stating that I do NOT own this and it costs 602 crom coins. It does NOT show any check marks for me owning any other pieces...

BUT...

If I am not mistaken, these are from the FIRST BATTLEPASS as I am currently in-game BUILDING with these pieces now (Stonebrick T2).

So, if you are saying these are NOT the same sets offered in the OG battelpass, then what is different from them VS the OG Battelpass set?

They are slightly different colors then the original ones from the BP. That's the difference

Ah OK! So they are different! Thank you for the info!

Why the F*ck are they different colours? Aren’t they supposed to blend in with the standard stone, brick and reinforced set?

That's a great point! Hmmm...

I never had the BP ones but I've seen others build with it in the server I'm in... I thought these looked different. Prefer the colors of the one from BP but better than not having them at all i guess lol

The reinforced stone door frame doesn't appear to me.
In the images there are 4 pieces in each type of material, and I can only make 3 in the last one.
Is the same thing happening to you?

EDIT: Someone already answered this upstream, sorry.

I didn't understand why this set shows up as something I don't own and can buy, when I'm pretty sure I already have all the pieces in it? I use Arcane doors / windows in builds all the time. I honestly don't remember which Bazaar / BP thing I got them from in the first place.

Before I posted my question here, I searched the official forums and there are multiple reports of your issue. Here's one of the threads:

Found a screenshot on Reddit - linked below is the comparison. Now, I begin to wonder if they are going to attempt to double-dip on past battlepass items by just recoloring them...

Well, Funcom has stated that Battle Pass items won't come to the Bazaar, BUT they may add an variation of items that had been in previous Battle Passes to the Bazaar.
So there you go.. different color, a different item according to Funcom.

Argh! But yeah, I do recall them saying that when the BP first started... I guess this is their way to get around that.

I guess there code for this will be
"REVISITED" = bazaar reskins/recolors of old BP items
