== Content ==
			
Howdy folks,
 
Wanted to give you all an update on whats happening with the Advanced Riding Level 40 Bug
Advanced Riding level 40 - Players are able to purchase this upgrade multiple times and lose currency in the process.Some players have purchased the skill and claim they receive no benefit. Firstly, check the tooltip in the Non-Combat Abilities Interface as this should show if the bonus has been included. Also make sure to dismount and remount if you purchased the skill whilst mounted.
 
UPDATE: This issue will be fixed in the 6/13 Weekly Update, and should not occur to players going forward. Currently the developers are trying to figure out the best way to restore the missing money. We'll update when we get more information.	
----
			
Bought the skill just now, still got charged triple for it. However I did get the skill.
 
Edit. Aaaaaand the hotfix date was just changed from 6/11 to 6/13. /facepalm	
----
			Will we have to rebuy it and simply get the money back or should we, if we already bought it, get the skill automtatically and only receive the money that we "lost"?	
----
			Except my non-combat spellbook does not open and comes back with a large assortment of errors.

Yea my non-combat spellbook won't seem to open either, I'm not sure I got the 15% buff. For me, I had about 1plat, 30g and after the transaction I had 3g left   =(       Honestly, I would not be super upset if I didn't get my money back, but if you guys could find a way to refund us that would be so amazing, as it did take me a ton of quests to save up that money.
 
Just a warning, while I may not care that much about in game currency, there are some who are going to throw a tantrum because they were saving up to buy credd, and they might bust out their tin foil hats and make this into a bigger issue than it needs to be.

----

This time it charged me 50g and didn't give me the advanced mount skill. This bullshit bug has taken a total of 200 gold from me now. FIX THIS!!!!!	
----
			I got the same error, but now vendor offers me only expert riding sklil (lvl 50, 80 plat). I guess that even with this error I got the previous tier. Or not? Not sure how to check it. Mayby you could add movement speed % into character interface under Secondary tab.	
----
			Buy the skill few minutes ago and having the same issue as above : dond't get the lvl 40 skill but vendor now show me the lvl 50 skill and i was discarded of 50 gold (i get the same error message as Songkla )	
----
			Same thing as others, basically earnt 50g this morning so thought I would buy the skill after seeing it was fixed, got the error,-50g but no skill (unless its been automatically applied but I doubt it, I can't really tell if I'm 15% faster now or not!)	
----
			
STILL BROKEN, DONT BUY IT.  
 
but feel free to replace the money you lost buy paying an extra $20 for credd....	
----
			Just send your spare gold to an alt and keep enough too buy the skill, worked for me. 	
----
			Sooooo it is or isn't fixed?  The official Carbine stance seems to say Yes it's fixed, but several people say it's not...can I buy this or not?	
----
			
Can't even open the noncombat abilities panel. It gives an LUA error.

			Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.	
----
			
Man I love the game, but my god all these bugs are *cupcake* annoying.
 
Btw: Bought the ridingskill. Didnt get the skill, but lost 50g. And no answer on the ingame ticket...	
----
			
I read the patch notes naively expecting them to actually apply.
 
Today I went to upgrade. Got the script error, didn't get the skill, but it also didn't take my money - though now it says that I don't have enough. Everything else works fine.	
----
			
Got this error and lost 50 gold and got nothing, its still buggy, NOT FIXED, DON'T BUY

Same problem here =;(.
----
			Awesome I'd sure like my 50 gold back!	
----
			I got the skill and only lost 50g. ^_^	
----
			
*EDIT*
 
After cross-checking with a lvl 26 alt, it appears that Tier 1 riding skill *is* the lvl 40 mount upgrade.  The first riding skill is listed as "base" (no tier) and "allows you to ride mounts" which is what my lvl 26 alt has.	
----
			I bought it after the patch, it took 50g but gave an error.  I rode against someone level 37 and I was noticibly faster than them, so I guess I have it?  I can't even check non combat abilities as it just gives an error!	
----
			Yeah I tried today 15th and still same ... skill didnt update in non-combat but I am lighter by 50g ;(	
----
			I bought the advanced riding skill  (15% speed increase) today 15th of June and received an add-on error, also I do not feel any difference in speed....	
----
			Pretty simple test for speed - do the Thayd Sprint (or whatever) and check your time on the same route. I could complete it with 1:13 or so left before, same after, so I'm definitely not moving faster.	
----
			Still not seeing any update to my mount's speed, and I've been charged 3x for it. Not going to attempt to buy it again, only to lose another 50g and STILL not have the mount speed.	
----
			If you bought it and you're curious if you have it, run next to someone else while both of you are mounted and don't sprint. See if you slowly go faster than him/her. Easy.	
----
			
Still not fixed.
Looked at my non-combat abilities yesterday and had only Tier 1 riding skill.
I can't even buy Tier 2 anymore because it only shows Tier 3 at the Mount Vendor.
 
Not fun.....	
----
			
Bought this on the 15th, was charged the fee, had the LUA/Add-on error pop-up, and didn't get the ability.
Checked Non-combat abilities, Miscellaneous, and shows as 'Tier 1 Riding Skill'. Definitely does not feel any faster.
 	
----
			So is the red post here incorrect?  Because if so, it really needs to be changed/edited - right now the official stance seems to be that this is fixed, which apparently it isn't - so someone needs to moderate this thread please

----
			Any more updates on this? I still haven't bought it because it's just not very clear if it's working. Not to mention, I needz me gold for the ridiculous repair bills!	
----
			
I got my mount bonus, had to buy it again, they owe me for 3 previous purchases from 3 weeks ago. Still received an error:

			Same here -- checked non combat skills, don't see the skill :(

			Still broken. Also getting the broken addon popup when purchased, another 50g gone.

			Can you please at least disable the merchants until this is fixed? It is a big headache for a lot of people - including yourselves, as you sort out who is continuing to waste money on this...

I also just recently tried buying this skill and got an addon error, lost 50g as well. Tried relogging and still didn't get it.
 
Edit: Nevermind, it seems like the name of the skill is bugged. The skill is named the same as the regular and looks the same, yet the advanced riding skill bonus seems to be there since it says i get an increased 15% movement speed.	
----
			7:42 PM EST 18 JUNEStill bugged. Was able to buy it, only charged once, however Addon:Vendor Error occured and I can't open my non combat spellbook.	
----
			Ok, I had the same ui error but when I looked under my skills it was there.	
----
			Might be a good idea to test the 80 platinum riding skill works properly too. Just in case. :P	
----
			Go figure, I've managed to stumble across a bug that robs you of 50 gold. Relogging didn't work, anyone know how to go about getting the gold back?

still bugged... yay for my gone 50g	
----
			what, you say its fixed, and when i buy it 50g gone and got nothing, way to go.	
----
			Purchased the riding skill today. It gave the same UI error that everyone else is reporting, however my non-combat skills book does show that I now have the Tier 1 Riding skill (upgrade from "Base") and that it is 15% faster. I was only charged once for the purchase (about 50g). For those who claim they aren't getting it, make sure to check your non-combat spells (in the ui window list at the bottom left of the screen). If you have the training, it will say "Tier 1" on the top left of the tooltip. If you don't have it, then it will say "Base".
