I created an Epic Sload's Inferno staff last night pre 1.37 patch, I wasn't able to finish what I was doing with the piece and it's set before the maintenance, so I had not equipped the item yet and was waiting for tonight to get the jewelry pieces I needed to go with the staff's I was able to create. After the update I started my game just like any other time, I entered into the game, got my jewelry crafted that I was unable to get to from maintenance. Once my set was complete I started equipping my staff's and enchanting my jewelry. And this is when I noticed the issue.
When I equipped my Sload's Lightning staff (epic), the bind on equip indicator popped up like it does, and I equipped it, I then moved to my back bar and proceeded to equip the Sload's Inferno staff (epic), the indicator popped up just like it does and I equipped the staff. However, even after equipping the Sload's Inferno staff and receiving the 'bind on equip' indicator, the staff is still listed as 'bind on equip'. So my next choice was to unequip the staff and see what happened. Nothing changed except the staff was now unequipped, the item was still listed as 'bind on equip'.
I went and created two new staff's because I messed up the two original's anyways. The second lighting staff also became bound after equipping as did the original. The second Inferno staff did not bind again after equipping. I have not tried to replicate the bug on frost staff's.
I'm not sure if this is for just Inferno Sload's or Inferno in general. I now have two Sload's Inferno's I created, equipped and unequipped that won't bind. I removed the Inferno staff again and equipped again. This appears to stay unbound indefinitely even after multiple equips and removal's although the initial warning that the item will become bind on equip only shows up the first time you go to equip the staff.
