Did I lose a badge?

I recently noticed on my level 50 badger that I since I was now an Incarnate, I had the ability to convert my "Flames of Prometheus" into a Notice of the Well. I clicked the button to do so, and I think I lost a badge in the process. I'm sure someone here knows if that's the case. (I don't know, because I hadn't thought to check my badge count before I clicked the button.)

If it did happen, I haven't decided whether it's a big deal to me or not, but I think as important as badges are to some players it's pretty dumb of them to create a mechanic that removes a badge you had already earned.

Hi,

as far as I can remember you run the Mortimer Kal arc.

You get a temp power "Flames of Prometheus".

You trade that temp power in for one "Notice" and it is removed.

Somewhere in that whole procedure you also get the SF badge "Prometheus".

You keep that.

Hope this helps and apologies if I have got it wrong

It was a placeholder, just like the old Veteran Rewards Badges had.

One item is the badge itself. When you clicked on the convert button, you only lost the non-counting placeholder, not the badge for the strike force.

OK, thanks. I knew something disappeared from my badge screen, but like I said I didn't know what my count was before the conversion, so I couldn't tell if it had changed.

Correct, except the badge is called "Promethean" not "Prometheus".
