The bug is related to the use of Rune of Havoc.
What went wrong?
While trying to craft a Sentinel Helmet that initially had a T7, T3 and T3 with an open prefix, I crafted “Reduced channeling cost”, then proceded to use 10 Runes of Havoc. The T1 crafted mod (reduced channeling cost) never shuffled, not T7 nor T3.
After that I went to ask a few streamers and found out that Palsteron was trying do the EXACT same process with EXACTLY the same crafted affix, that is, reduced channeling cost on a Sentinel Helmet (different base than mine tho). He tried exactly the same and after 8 tries, again the T2 crafted mod (it crit’ed when he added it) never changed with any of the other tiers, while the other 3 kept rotating with one another.
Why do I think its a bug?
Well first of all, the chances of that happening (if you add my tries to Palsteron’s) are basically close to impossible. Second, in day 1 I crafted a +4 Warpath body armour using the mentioned method, shuffeling a T1 crafted (+1 to Warpath level) into T7, it got me 3 tries but, with every try, the crafted mod kept shuffeling with other mods tiers. And that’s the big difference with the helmet: the crafted mod NEVER CHANGED in 10 tries (and 8 for Palsteron).
Hopefully this is helpful for you guys to find out
EDIT: for some reason, just found out that it changes ONLY if you modify a different mod after you craft the one desired. Maybe something to do with that
Thanks!
