Modules bugged?

[InvadeNormandy]

I managed to get a +1 handwrap to convert into a module after some mechanical trap part farming... and when I make it, joy of joys it's ready for crafting!

I put it on the puppy to test it initially and... it as a yellow exclaimation mark like it's not proficient? Curious.... and despite it being a "Weapon" on a technicality I can't imbue it with any element But I ignore this and do the other crafting processes, and I try to put it in every crafting machine in house K and none of them will accept the module so I cannot enchant it

So I go "Maybe it's a glitch" and disenchant it to attune it to crafting... well now it's lost it's +1 and no machine will take it still. Is there something grave I'm doing wrong? I even googled the issue and skimmed the forums and people just aren't talking about gearing the pet up much and some people outright leave it naked from 0 to 20. So a sticky or information FAQ would be nice.

When you convert handwraps into a module it has the effects that the handwraps had BEFORE you converted them to a module.

You cannot add other effects to it after it's been converted (as far as I know).

i.e.

+1 Handwraps == +1 Module

+5 Flaming Burst Handwraps of Pure Good == +5 Flaming Burst Module of Pure Good

DOH. Yeah that'd do it... the module saying "Craftable" is what threw me off very badly.

Many thanks for the info.

Question: only handwraps can be create weapon modules? and what about named/epic weapon? they can be trnformed in weapon modules?

You can craft the handwraps using the Cannith Crafting, then use those handwraps in the Device Workstation to create a Module.

I made +4 Holy Handwraps of Bleed and made them into a module.....pretty big upgrade to doggie-dps.

Planning on doing same thing with docents.

[jingseng]

can any handwraps be used?

...as in, could a sufficiently motivated character with Epic Handwraps of Endless Light convert those into a module? that would strike me as "powerful"

[Saaluta]

Named handwraps cannot be used to make modules.

unfortunate. I assume that also applies to vampiric stonedust handwraps. boo.

I ran into the same problem as the OP. I find it somewhat weird and unfortunate that once it is crafted you cant touch it, though I also find it strange that you have to use Handwraps of all components to make them in the first place. I would have though it would be Parts+Docent to make a Module, but oh well.
