You need to look at the recipe and see what it says. If it says in Reserve bars then it needs to be reserve bars. If it says 25,000 GP Eldritch Bar then it needs to be the the 25k Elritch bar.


To expand a little: If the recipe says “5k GP reserve bars” then it can be five 1k bars. I’m not aware of any recipe requiring a 5k bar exclusively.

CoA recipes and the non-Wish-Ring substitute for legendaries all specify GP be in “reserve bars.”

But I’m not aware of any recipe that requires “5k GP reserve bars,” they just say “5k GP.” To be nice, I bag up gold 1k at a time, and put the five bags into a larger bag if at all possible. Be nice to our transmuters.

For mail-in transmutes you have to do the transmute to the good specified. After reciept send in the recipe as specified. So relics that 5K gp can be done the way Brad listed. For Legendaries you have to convert to the listed reserved bars ahead of time.

Relevant "FAQ" (though there are multiple spelling mistakes in the question...):

Sorry for the confusion. If I understand your question, you want to make an Improved Ring of Evasion, but you don't have all the required tokens to do that now. You want to send in a bunch of tokens to make those Ingredient tokens, and then apply those tokens to make the Improved Ring of Evasion.

Unfortunately, the process has been designed to eliminate errors and confusion which leads to collectors upset with us because we don't agree with the several staged process the collector has in his head. Instead, we are making the Exchange program a step-by-step process where you must gather the exact recipe tokens before sending in for that new token. So, in your case, you will have to send in for all the Trade and Reserve tokens you need for the Improved Ring of Evasion, and then make a second shipment with those exact recipe tokens.


It does kind of suck to not be able to send in five 5k bars for a legendary but it seems pretty clear with that rule. And TD makes the rules so that's their call. Just costs double the shipping price and time it takes to process and receive in the mail.

In the same vein, I ordered a $1k condensed order this year and therefore received no commons. I have 41 trade goods to transmute now, and a lot of them are not perfect stacks of 25 because I received no commons and transmuted twice since the last time I was at a con with TD (so no spare commons at home). I will have to send them in in stacks of 75 because that's at least divisible by 3. I know it says you can do this on the website:

Answer: Please try to avoid this situation if possible. If you cannot, in the above example please place 24 pts of tokens seperately in 3 bags, and then place the left-over 3 pts token in a seperate non-labeled bag. Then, take all four bags and place them together in a larger ziplock bag. This is how we will know that this special case has occurred.

This already intimidates me that I'm going to upset the people processing my transmute but I have no way around this unless I order random commons from someone's online shop.

If the recipe calls for a 25K bar specifically though, one would need to transmute those 25 1K bars into one 25 K bar before sending in, correct?

Correct
  • If a recipe calls for a "25,000 GP Eldritch Bar", you must send in one of these:

  • If a recipe calls for X,000 GP in Reserve bars, you may send in any combination of 1K , 5K , and/or 25K bar tokens, but all the GP you submit must be some kind of Reserve bar.
  • If a recipe calls for X,000 GP and does not specify any kind of bar, you may send in either bar(s), smaller GP-denomination tokens, or some combination of the various types of GP tokens.

Anyone have a thousand Silver Blessing Charms I can use for my next relic transmute?

Depends on the relic. The 2019 require reserve bars.
