Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) DO NOT RE YOUR BLACK-BLUE/RED PURPLE OR CYAN. YOU WONT LEARN IT EVEN IF IT PROCS. It says u RE with the skill of 400. But even then you wont learn it. I would of learned my black blue eviserating. +41 crit but in big red letters. "INSUFFICEINT SKILL REQUIRED" Do not risk your black red, blue, purple or cyan until your max level 450 in artifice, or YOU WILL BE CHEATED. edit: and yes. I did learn the advanced artifice training before I RE'd them. update. Hi folks. Thanks for calling this to our attention. We're currently escalating this to the Crew Skills gurus and will update here as soon as we've got more information.

The_Raven_Lord Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Thanks for the warning. I wasn't going to RE any of the precious crystals until it was CONFIRMED that it wouldn't be bugged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 Because of this, I wasted my 3 purple evis, black red hawkeye/indest and black blue indes/evis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixcoatl Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Did you go to your trainer and get the next tier of Artifice before you tried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 yes I did. first thing I did was that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Ziva Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Did you go to your trainer and get the next tier of Artifice before you tried? It shouldn't matter. The tooltip says you only need 400 Artifice: http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/6614/screenshot2013040906162.jpg And, if you didn't have the required level, it should not allow you to RE it. Not destroy the crystal and not give you anything when it procs. I lost 5 black-red hawkeye crystals today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 I lost ALL of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_of_Mu Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I also lost 4 black purple crystals. It would be nice to have them restored if this is a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Yes, this has to be spoken about and players need to be recompensated! tooltip assures of 400 artifice required and provides green 20% chance. I have reversed two black purple hawkeye crystals and two purple crystals only to find out I wouldn't get schematics anyway! Those are too expensive not to restore them. I have made a ticket, will wait three weeks to get some copy-paste response totally off-topic. Edited April 9, 2013 by Alec_Fortescue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 yes, yes they do need to refund this and fix it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Ziva Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 yes, yes they do need to refund this and fix it.. Yes. They better figure out a way to refund our lost crystals or give us the schematics we should have learned. Losing so many rare and expensive crystals is inexcusable.

Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 bump. I know, they are rare colors.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) bump. I know, they are rare colors.... Lost crystals can be easily traced. Item recovery upon request (ticket) is not difficult. I was returned a unique one-time quest reward armor which i sold year ago (!!) to the vendor. I never heard of an instance of granting a schematic. I think the fairest option is to return the crystals which were wasted on r/e before we reached 450 artifice.

Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 Im curious if they would even restore my 3 Advanced Purple Evisceratin, Black Blue Evisc, Indest, Black Red Hawkeye, indes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Beers Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I don't why you guys are complaining. Due to the new PvP bolster system, evaporating your crystals into thin air now makes them BiS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionsKNives Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Agreed. I lost two purple crystals to this bug. I had made my own post about this, but this thread seems to be getting more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillionsKNives Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Just to add, I submitted both a bug report, and a regular ticket that asks for either the schematic or the crystals back. I'll put an update if I get a response. Edited April 9, 2013 by MillionsKNives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnusheart Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hi folks. Thanks for calling this to our attention. We're currently escalating this to the Crew Skills gurus and will update here as soon as we've got more information. I hope this translates, too restoring the lost crystals and doubling their schematic chance, or, people who got the error of insufficent skill requirement to them re getting it. p.s. on a related note to crafting/gear issues. the new orange moddable medium armor sith sith helmet no long works with hoods like in the PTS like they used too. Bug also applies to Kalligs countenance not working anymore with hoods after the last PTS 2.0 patch. p.p.s. on an offtopic note to gear issues, Revans set is still bugged with double hoods, light gray chestplate and brown lower legs, considering its a Cartel Market hotspot of popularity it would be fixed.

SFDebris Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Hi folks. Thanks for calling this to our attention. We're currently escalating this to the Crew Skills gurus and will update here as soon as we've got more information. I hope it's not just replacing a crystal, if it weren't for the bug we would have the schematic, it would be silly to not give the schematic to correct the error of the system.

KeyboardNinja Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I ran into the issue as well with a Red-Black crystal. Extremely galling, especially considering the rarity and value of those crystals. CSR ticket is in. Hopefully they will grant the schematic that was rightfully earned, rather than merely restoring the crystal and forcing me to roll the dice again.

Dev Post AmberGreen Posted April 9, 2013 Dev Post Share Posted April 9, 2013 As an update on this, we have identified the cause of the bug and will be fixing it as a high priority. In the meantime, we ask that players do not Reverse Engineer Black-Blue, Black-Red, Cyan, and Purple color crystals. Please note that while Customer Support will be able to re-grant you the color crystal, we are unable to grant schematics that are granted by Reverse Engineering. We want to ensure that we do proper testing, so I don't have an actual time frame for when this will be fixed, but once we know, I'll post again for you.
