How do we Craft items now?

Sindala

Ok, my alt just got to level 40 so I logged in my crafter to make a new suit....

Erm????WTF???? I almost laughed but its Humiliating how bad it is now..Try it..

How do you craft now when the numbers don't tell you anything??
9 ebony ingots make a level 40 dagger?? I really don't think they do.....

Seriously should have rolled back this patch as its just Embarrassing how many Game stopping bugs have been applied....
I say game stopping for me as I haven't a clue how to craft a full set of armour/weapons now so my char cannot continue.

nb, I bet how bad the patch is isn't brought up in this weeks ESO livestream.... :'(

Choose the next item then go back to the one you wanted to craft.

Sindala

You cant add a trait then as it wipes it when you swap items.
My point is I shouldn't have to have a brain meltdown for trying to craft a piece of armour.
If I wanted this amount of stupid bugs added everytime they patch then i'd still be playing UO.

that only works sometimes, fact is nobody should have to try snd find an alternative way because a system is broken.

I tried crafting a set yesterday, exit, reentering was the only way of knowing what I was about to actually craft.

i found this out earlier, all i did was check and uncheck have items each time i changed something

Since the first big patch zen has been adding more bugs than features.

Why did you expect this one to be different? In one or two weeks they should remove the big issues... hopefully.

And give us more...

I don't understand which 'New' feature should screw up crafting so much though?
Well one thing I can say is from the implementation of this patch and it being so screwed up, I can see another round of 'lay offs' fast approaching as blame is laid down.

R1ckyDaMan

They added a new tier, that is all they did.

The funny thing is, some of these bugs were reported from the PTS and they still made it to live. I really, really wish they would just abandon the whole "content every X weeks" goal and just polish the content before releasing it.

ers101284b14_ESO

1st. This was a content push not a patch.

2. Yes clicking on the next item and going back updates it. I just tried it. Same with traits. I'm looking at the Robe and it says 15 Void cloth to make a VR9 no trait. I chose 18 Void cloth and Exploration. Nothing updated. I clicked to go to jerkin then back to robe and it updated to VR12 and Exploration.

3. It's a known issue and is under known issues section. Slated to be fixed witht he next actual patch

4. I like cookies.

5. It sucks but these things are going to happen for the life of the game.

Aint it great that we have to "play games" just to be able to play our game.
Kind of sad that this kind of stuff is still happening.

I think I need some mead

I actually have to reinstall Windows tonight so I can't even play. I patched a few theme files under system32 about seven months ago to allow certain title bar colors in Windows 8.1 and the latest update doesn't play nice with them and Windows backup utilities don't restore the correct file versions. So basically, a reinstall is the only option left for me.

Good timing. Hopefully, this will mean I will have to spend less time dealing with the crappy bugs.

Doesn't work all the time, took me a log out a while ago just to make a single dagger. Fact is, and I'm going to say it yet again, this stuff shouldn't be making it into live EVERY single time we have a patch.

It wouldn't matter if it was the odd bug but it's not it's total game change bugs that actually make me feel nervous for my character when a new patch is on the way.

indigoblades

i reported this bug on pts. Again nothing was done.

For me this is totally different, I tried to finally craft a Void Cloth set after I reached VR9, but every item stays at level 1 (not even VR!) when I want to craft it. No matter which material I use or if I click on the next item and back, it does NOT update on my end and stays at level 1.
Well, no new set then, I'm still walking around with a full VR7 set...

Do the stats stay at level 1, not just the level, it could be a tool tip issue? Even if you add mats?

I was just getting ready to make a set for my toon. Let me see what it does for me.

@Sindala, there's a hotfix out. Quit the client and re-start it.

I just loaded my game and the stats and levels change as they should.

I had not tried to make anything earlier this morning when I was playing, so I don't know if it would have worked or not.

Sindala

Lol, See...I make a post on something and it darn well gets sorted quick smart

ers101284b14_ESO

It has nothing to do with your post but if it makes you feel better than thank you for making a post

Sindala

hmm....well it's a sort of hotfix.
It works about 90% but slow laggy response now with 2 - 9 seconds before any change updates on screen.
-

Actually scrap that, it's the same as before but now it randomly updates to correct or doesn't.....id say that makes it worse rather than better.
Hotfix - No.
Hotfix attempt - yes.

After another "update" now, it works for me again as it should, too. Now the item level increases when I add materials :-)

ZOS_TristanK

Hey, folks! As @ers101284b14_ESO and @Srugzal helpfully mentioned, we are in the process of pushing a hotfix for two different issues right now. As stated in the official thread:

• Fixed an issue where the crafting UI was displaying the incorrect item levels, styles, traits, and materials.
• Fixed an issue where you could not edit your social status (online/offline). This was causing you to be stuck in whatever status you had set yourself to prior to patch 1.4.3.

We'll update that thread once the hotfix is complete. Thanks for your patience!

ers101284b14_ESO

@ZOS_TristanK‌ you mean it wasn't already pushed? Cause I downloaded another 70 meg patch like an hour ago.

timidobserver

It took me 15 seconds to figure out how to get around the crafting UI issues. Just think and troubleshoot a little until the hotfix.

Using the suggestions listed above, I was able to craft my new V14 armor and weapons.

Log out and restart the launcher if you haven't already.

Soulharvester

I think when you craft like that, you should get a chance at a superior yellow result. Or some kind of weapon we do not have access too, like a spear, giant boulder, weaponized rabbits, etc. Have an extra tab that says, random and it can be something really cool or waste components. Chances!

Sindala

Working again this morning after the "Patch".
Hotfixes are applied to the live server while it's up, what you applied was a Patch.
