Why cant I make spell focus trinkets?

[DDOisFree]

I have a bound to account Greater Necromancy Shard +6, and a bound to character craftable +8 trinket.

When I put the focus shard into the bound item machine it says I can put it on a trinket, but when I add the trinket it doesnt let me craft anything.

I know when they first added the craftable trinkets you had to disjunct them before you could craft actual shards on them, even though they said craftable +5 and you could put the potential increasing shards on it. Might be the problem here.

Any difference if you put the trinket into the machine first and the shard in second? You're saying the recipe disappears when both are put into the machine?

I already buffed it up to +8 craftable and dont want to disjunction it again after that :x

I needed a +!0 trinket for +2 necro focus and greater void lore, but it wont let me make it :(

No matching recipes found no matter what way around I put them. I'll have to look for a shard of power now.

Ah I had another trinket and it works after disjunctioning it, so I just wasted loads of essences getting the first one up to +8 doh.

Yep trinkets must be deconned first regardless of where you get them. (Store, chests, risia.) Unfortunately, the only shards that can be applied before disjunction are potential shards, which are typically the first shards applied. This ends up costing a lot of players a lot of essences.

No - there must be more to the story. I purchased a craftable trinket from the DDO store and I did not need to disjunct it in order to craft an alacrity shard onto it.

Other people have specifically said that store trinkets don't work until deconned.

I made fire and elec absorption trinkets from ddo store trinkets and do not recall deconning them prior
