Anyone else having issues with Enchanting and Alchemy ingredients coming back as unknown traits?

TybaltKaine · October 31

I noticed this yesterday and wanted to check if anyone else is having a similar issue.

When I do my daily writs I use the "Quest Only" check box to make life easier, but when I open the Enchanting or Alchemy menus I get "Missing Trait" despite being on my Master Crafter and having all known traits.

Is anyone else getting a similar behavior? On Controller if that matters.

EDIT: I do not use any crafting add ons at all and have always done writs manually.

That’s in the Known Issues sticky above.

It should be fixed soon in an upcoming incremental.

EDIT: Oh wait - it’s not. But here’s the thread and acknowledgement: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/8212535#Comment_8212535?utm_medium=social&utm_source=discord&utm_campaign=dwemer_automaton

Not on the hotfix list, though. So our trait knowledge could stay missing for three more months.

Any updates on when we get our trait knowledge back, @ZOS_Kevin? It's still not on the hotfix list.

Trait knowledge has not been lost it's still there. Nothing to hot fix as you can still do enchanting and alchemy the old fashioned way by unchecking quest only box.

Yeah, the weird thing is that the "quests only" option still works correctly with the master writs, just not with the daily writs. It's like whatever programming mechanism is used to link specific writs to the necessary ingredients got lost or changed somehow, such as if the internal "IDs" of the writs got changed or something like that, and can no longer pull up the required ingredients. I mean, I don't know how it's programmed to work, but it's just interesting that master writs weren't affected, just the daily writs.

It was already marked as a known issue in the patch notes (the quest markers not appearing because the game isn't connecting your knowledge to the solutions), and they seem to want to keep the "known issue" pinned thread to issues not previously acknowledged.
