Guild Wars 2

Some guy was having issues promoting scraps today in the forge. Saying it wouldn’t work. So, as a test, I bought some scraps and tried it out as well. Well, it didn’t work. Seems to be an issue where it won’t let you use the dust as the 4th ingrediant.

Any ideas why this is? They (Anet) just decide to do away with it in the last few updates?

Thanks!!

Specific recipe:

250 Cotton Scraps, Philosopher Stones (more than enough), 1 Linen Scrap, and 5 Luminous dust (although the dust would not highlight after I added the others).

From what I understand, this recipe actually requires the wrong dust, which is lucky because it’s less expensive to buy a tier below luminous (radiant apparently)

Hmm, well, never mind. After playing around with the recipe in the forge it seems to be working now, though I swear it wasn’t. Maybe the order in which you add the ingrediants matters, or maybe an Anet employee saw this post and fixed it, lol, anyway.

Yup, seems to be piles of radiant dust instead of luminous, now that is.

Excellent, glad to hear my info is not faulty.

Economically, it makes more sense to promote refined versions though, so bolts instead of scraps, as you save some dust cost.
