I noticed that recently, the badge for buying the game on Steam got added (again), previously missing it after my purchase. However, there are some oddities with badges now.
Firstly, the page https://forum.lastepoch.com/u/ardenian/badges only shows the Ardent Gladiator badge for me, while https://forum.lastepoch.com/badges shows only the First Traveler badge.
Also, when I enter https://forum.lastepoch.com/badges/130/ardent-gladiator?username=ardenian, it shows me my Ardent Gladiator Badge, but when I then click on the link in “Badges / Ardent Gladiator” above the badge, it only shows the First Traveler badge and not the Ardent Gladiator badge.
Furthermore, when I click the First Traveler badge and go to https://forum.lastepoch.com/badges/126/first-traveler, the site just infinitely tries to load… something. In the web console of Firefox, one of the messages shows this error message, could be related as it does not appear when opening the link https://forum.lastepoch.com/badges/130/ardent-gladiator?username=ardenian that shows the Ardent Gladiator badge.
Error Message

[HTTP/2 404 Not Found 539ms]
I am also unable to equip the First Traveler instead or in addition to the Ardent Gladiator badge.
That is because the Ardent Gladiator badge is the only one unlocked on your account.
The purpose of this page is to list all badges - regardless of which are unlocked on your account and which are not - however it is currently not displaying badges associated with the purchase of a supporter pack. I can’t say for certain what we’ll do with this page.
This is expected behaviour.
That’s just a link to the page mentioned in the second quote.
Thanks for the report!
Something has definitely gone wrong here - the error shows our forum is attempting to find a resource stored in /wp-content/uploads/ on lastepoch.com. This won’t be found easily - lastepoch.com has never had WordPress installed. I’ll take a look at this.
Ohhh, I see, thank you for clarifying! The lack of presence of the supporter pack badges confused me there, making me assume previously when I did not have the Ardent Gladiator badge from my Steam purchase, that I was granted the First Traveler for posting on the forum in Beta. I see now how it is, thank you!
Hehe, by the way, thank you for the explanation about the error! It has been ages since I did any web development and it is always nice to get an insight into why something is going wrong, it is a communication that feels good and brings player and developer on the same eye level, in some way, if you get what I mean? It is a certain kind of acknowledgement that I appreciate a lot.
Not sure if I should make another thread for it, there is one tiny small petty issue with the login page at https://lastepoch.com/auth/login?client_id=....&redirect_uri=...&request_id=..., if one enters a wrong email address or a wrong password there, the error says “Incorrect email, username or password”, but one cannot actually enter the username somewhere there, the Email input forces one to enter something that is a valid email address, stating “Please provide a valid Email format”. If there is an input field for a username, I have missed it so far.
