I lost a bunch of tags this morning when i spoke to the light. I went to see how many days i had left before i could re-incarnate next, when i saw the option to recover all my lost tags, and like a plonker i clicked it without thinking, my toon is a LvL 60 and was tagged upto Malbolge. Now Ive lost everything except a few pre-LL tags, i still have my hells skull though. Can i get this repaired please ? The time was 10:24am GMT Account :- Hooked On Phonics Character :- Knock Off Nigel Really sorry about this, I thought i had already claimed back those tags, which i already had before i clicked on the light. Thanks in advance.

Forgot to add that my 1 week re inc period was already up, and that option still remained in the convo with The Light, even tho i had already reclaimed the tags prior to today.

Your character should be fixed next time you log in. I think I've also tracked down the bug which was causing that conversation option to show.
Thanks, Acaos

Thanks a lot funky, one minor thing though, im still only tagged to Quimath, but my hell skull still lets me go to Malbolge. ;D And Im still getting the message from The Light also, am going to stay clear of it for a while.

Unfortunately I could only restore your accomplishments from Friday. I'm guessing you did Phlegethos and Stygia over the weekend?

Yeah, no biggie, wasn't wearing any gear that required those tags, and doing them again was my plan regardless, as that was the first time Ive done either

I've had the same problem. I lost 10 LLs and alot of post-immo tags. In my case, It was my second reincarnation on that character, and the tags I recovered were the ones from my first reincarnation instead of the ones I currently held. I think the problems lies in completely replacing tags instead of stacking with ones achieved while playing the reincarnated character.

You can't lose LLs via this bug. The only way you can do that is if you decide you don't like your reincarnation and redo it during the time window- in which case, you are given back the xp and tags you had when you chose to renicarnate. This is intended behaviour, and prevents exploitation of the system.

Sorry Funky, but I did lose 10 LLs through reincarnation. I'm not sure how it happened, but my toon was 50, reincarnated, and was only given enough xp for 40 levels, when I went back to the light to recover my tags, I was given the ones from the previous reincarnation - which was at least a month before I decided to reincarnate again. Whether it has anything to do with the bug referred to earlier, I don't know, just thought I'd point it out.

You can't reincarnate within a month of your last reincarnation. You seem to be confused about the workings of the reincarnation system. Why don't you post a rough chronology? That'll help clear any confusion.

Okay, I'll try. I can't be too exact since it's been at least a month or two since the problem occurred, but I will give all details I can. I first reincarnated my character before reaching immo status, don't remember the exact level, but 27 or 37 sounds about right (i'm sure there are logs to track this). Since I didn't really have any tags worth recovering, I just went through Xul, Lolth and Immo without talking to the light to get my tags back. After reaching level 50, and 30 days after my last reincarnation, I decide to go reincarnate again. Talk to the light, I can't reincarnate because my last one is incomplete, so I click the option to recover my tags. (I didn't check my tags after doing this, but I'm assuming this is where my tags were overwritten at) After I do this, I talk to the light again to start the reincarnation process, make a new character, come back and then talk to the light. Once I level to 40, I'm unable to take any more levels ... of course I go to the altar of legends to continue and I'm told i need xxxx xp before I can level, seeing as a character must be immortal to reach legendary levels, I go back to the light to recover my tags then go back to the altar and I get the same message that I need xxxx xp before I can level. After checking my tags at this point I notice that all of the tags are pre-immo tags. The End. =P After browsing the forums, I found this thread highergroundpoa.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=BugReport&action=display&thread=10725 where jonuhey had a similar problem. I'm not expecting any compensation for the lost levels, as reaching level 50 isn't hard work and doesn't take much more than a few hours ... plus the toon is 60, and it's been quite some time since the incident. Sorry if there's any confusion, if there is, point it out and I'll try to elaborate more.

Player name is "EW Adjroth" as for the character, I don't quite remember which one it was with, it was either "Adela Magic Middle Finger" or "Adela Magic Thumb"

Whether it has anything to do with the bug referred to earlier, I don't know, just thought I'd point it out. I experienced that problem and discovered that I had mistakenly rebuilt with an xp penalty. I reclaimed my immortality and it only gave me exp for lvl 41. I redid the character again without the xp penalty it gave me full xp when I reclaimed my immortality. Fortunately I learned my lesson about reclaiming tags with a lower level character. I reincarneted a lvl 20 and took him to immo by lvl 38. I decided I had messed up skill points on the new build and went to the thingy to check on how long I had before I could rebuild again. I got the option to reclaim tags. So I reclaimed fire beetle mother and ice kobald king, and lost xul, lolth and immo tags. Since the toon was under 40 didn't worry much about it, though it was annoying.
