All of my candy except my pyroblast cinnamon balls just vanished. I came into AV with 1 day on the

duration of my candy and then it all vanished. Now I cannot get my GNERDs achievment. I just got all

this candy an hour ago. Whats going on?

We're in the process of hotfixing the duration of these candies; they should soon last two weeks, not a day.

If you've already completed your candy bucket runs for this year, you can trade candies among alts, as others have mentioned.

Q u o t e:

Silly question here, but why were they hotfixed in the first place?


I don't comprehend your meaning; they haven't been hotfixed yet.

Q u o t e:

Before the hotfix on Sunday, they were set to a 7 days duration. After the restarts, they ended up being set to 12 hours.


No, actually, that's incorrect. They were always a one day duration prior to this hotfix; they haven't been hotfixed before. We're fixing it now.

Any chance you can make them last through death? :)


Afraid not; that's part of the challenge with the G.N.E.R.D. Rage achievement, after all. ;)
