WARNING: Old Crafting blanks bugged

[TPICKRELL]

Just a heads up to all you crafters out there.

The known issues list indicates that weapon blanks that were disjuncted before update 9.1 are bugged and do not show that they are craftable.

The known issues list indicates this is a display bug, but it is more than that.

You can apply Prefix/Suffix and Enhancement shards to the blank, BUT YOU CAN NOT APPLY SHARDS OF POTENTIAL.

This cost me a holy shard this morning, as I put the holy on first then swapped toons to get the potential shards and the enhancement shards only to find that I could not increase the potential until I had re-disjuncted the blank.

I confirmed that it works fine, once you have re-disjuncted. So make sure you do another disjunction on any blanks that do not say Craftable (+5) in the description.

Yup, have to make another holy and outsider bane shard due to this. And I got double hit on this because the holy on handwraps isn't applying good damage to the wraps. Derp.

Confirmed.

However, if the item in question already has +6 or greater enhancement on it, you cannot disjunct it. It is stuck forever (or until they patch) in its current state.

It's almost like things were less broken before the patch. Craziness!

If it has a guild augment slot you can not apply a guild crystal either. I lost 2 large guild augments to this bug.

You forgot the best part, if you made a blank pre patch, witch some enchants on it, you can't even disjunct it back to blank cause "it would raise its max enchant lvl above the limit"...

And, it is all under a beta flag on a live server so they have to provide zero support for it. Brilliant!

Out of curiosity, has anyone tried adding a shard of potential to a pre-patch blank to see if it might raise the max enchantment level enough for the item to be useable again?

Just a thought.

As noted in the OP, the whole problem is that shards of potential can't be applied to pre-patch crafted items.

I know right, almost as if the whole thing was in beta! Oh wait...

I missed that part, sorry. Hopefully they will find a fix for that...
