So for the first time my FA did 10 chests and I got a blueprint. But it's not in my inventory ... where'd it go?
Submit bug report, or am I looking in wrong spot?

There is no way to see how many blueprints you have except if you have a crafting recipe that requires them, or if you have a Magic building that can be upgraded.

Yeah they do not show in your inventory..
You can check by entering a magical residence upgrade tab and hovering over the icon of the blueprint and it will tell you how many you have or by hovering over the icon for any crafting item that requires blueprints to make it … yep its a pain in the butt

lol ok. Maybe by design but seriously sounds like a bug-report worthy post to me. I don't have magic house to view. I'm going to cash it in for RR spells when I see the chance, but in meantime I don't get why it wouldn't be in inventory like everything else in the game.
Thanks for quick replies

If it is, then people have been reporting it as a bug for about three years now. lol

yeah. I realize I could just as easily post it in suggestion forum, but I just reported it as a bug instead ... maybe they fix bugs faster. At the least, another voice in the wind.

It's been an issue/request since before that was implemented though.

Because if you don't have a magic building to upgrade or a recipe to convert it, there's nothing else you can do with it?
They do fix bugs faster than they implement suggestions. But wanting them to do it faster doesn't make it into a bug, it just makes more works for the forum mods.

IG could easily make the Blueprint show up in the inventory. If you have any idea why it isn't so then please say on.

I've seen this issue reported as a bug, put in suggestions/ideas forum, as a question in the help forum and talked over in the discussions forum since I started playing. I don't think anyone knows why it hasn't been implemented. Because with all that, the response from Inno has been *crickets*

Doesn't matter. I earned it, show it to me. I'm not a big gamer, but I don't recall playing any game before that I've earned something and they subsequently hid it from me. I also don't believe this is really much different than pre-dwarves earning PP, but is clearly treated differently.
And most certainly hiding it from people does not incent anyone to want to go spend diamonds on magic buildings so they can use it. New players might not even realize they've earned one in the first place.
*shrug* It's a flaw in the game so I'm voicing my distaste for it. Don't really care what label you want to place on it. And not posting because a mod might have to do something about it isn't anywhere in my sphere of thoughts. I DID search the forums for this question first but nothing came up.

I just put [blueprint inventory] into the search bar and found these posts

lol I was wondering how long it would take for somebody to post a reply like this. "Well, you just didn't look hard enough!".
The first several results are my own threads. The rest did not look relevant or dated so instead I posted for help first, and complained second once I got my answer.

They don't hide it from you. They show it to you anywhere you can possibly do something with it.
I don't think anybody disagrees it's a design flaw. Design flaws are not bugs, unless they are unintended. For the moment, we are led to believe it is intentional, therefore it is not a bug. I take no issue with you complaining as many times as you want. I'll never get in the way of someone who wants to get worked up over something.
I don't know why they don't show it in inventory. Maybe they sat around a table asking each other if they'd get more tickets from people who can't find it, or from people who find it and complain it's useless to them and just a gimmick to make people buy magic buildings (the original expectation was that they'd be giving us each one, which went out the window when they split Blueprints from RR instants). Maybe they have a perverse sense of humour and like torturing players.
EDIT: Removed incorrect information. my apologies.

You believe it is intentional and therefore not a bug, I don't. I have no idea what the developers intentions are.
But from the outside looking in, as I was, it has the hallmark definition of a bug.

"Intentional" grants the developers more thought than I think they put into it. I think they'll get around to it.
I fully embrace being critical of the tactic of deciding that the other threads on the subject aren't adequate for you, so feeling justified in creating a new thread on a subject that's been discussed ad nauseum, and then, when the same answer was given as had been given several times in the past, creating a new (and drastically incomplete per the requested format) bug report to go along with the already newly created thread. if it walks like a worked-up duck and talks like a worked up duck....

I have seen other companies use the lingo that it is either intentional or a bug, but have not seen the Elvenar staff delineate things this way. I am not sure how to make categorical statements about their "not a bug" lingo. They seem to view these "not a bug" elements as acceptable, but I am not sure what the standards are for even that, as they can change their minds without announcement or even any discussion of their reasoning.

My only criteria are:
- They know about it.
- It doesn't seem like it should be difficult to add a way to view them.
- but they haven't after a year.

Yeah, it does not make sense for it to not be in the inventory somewhere. It cannot be used from the inventory, so that may have been their reason to begin with, but then they added the combining catalyst to the game, which also cannot be used from the inventory, and artifacts cannot be used from the inventory. But all those can be disenchanted, so maybe they did not add it after that to keep people from disenchanting them. That is still a flimsy excuse but that is the only excuse I can think of that they could claim.
