Character Issues on aftermath of east bug?

[ZigZag]

as we all know (or should know) that east got nice bug awhile back. after that was dealt with, ive noticed that many of my toons loaded with gear i want back became... invalid, i guess, to play. Is this due to the server bug? and is there a way i can recover the gear, or do i have go farming again? im hoping that they're still somehow accessible since there still in the server vault, but i dont know.
