Seriously I just accidentally deleted 88 enhancement cores while trying to pop a finest matterweave and they all deleted at once, yet I can’t mass delete shaders which I can get back at any time?

Edit: Wow I didn’t expect this to get this much traction

Edit 2: spelling

Edit 3: I understand that shaders reward you however my point is that cores are much more valuable and you shouldn’t lose all of them due to a simple mistake

I’ll file a QOL bug on Monday to see if this can be changed. Losing a full stack of Enhancement Cores due to a mistake is a terrible experience that we should try to prevent. No idea on ETA for a change, if one can be made.

In terms of shaders, dismantling them gives you a payout- legendary shards, bright dust, glimmer. If you dismantled a stack of 999, or if you and a few other people in the tower did at the same time, there would be potential for issues to arise.

Can’t get into the specifics of how the system works, but that’s the gist of it.

(I honestly don’t know exactly how everything on the backend works, there are way smarter people who work on that!)

What about being able to mass-buy Shaders in Collection? I mean, if I'm gonna pimp my armor how likely is it that I just want one?

It's also a Glimmer sink, but it takes a very long time of boring holding a button to actually get rid of any sizeable amount.

We do have a minor QOL fix for that on Tuesday- acquiring shaders should be as fast as dismantling them.

Right now, it takes 3 seconds to snag one shader from the collection. Tuesday, this will be changed to 1 second.
