Q:
Is mystic forge still bugged?
A:
It is not bugged. It is working as intended as of some recent update.
I have another question, I mixed 3 exotic GS + 1 mystic stone and I received a scepter so this was changed too? in that case if I’m gonna mix 3 armor pieces + 1 stone I can get a weapon?
To receive the exact item type as a result, is to throw 4 of the same item type. mystic stone is to fill up as a same tier item but not act like same item type. so 3 + mystic stone = 3 + random item.
True,the forge itself is not broken, just the RNG.
I’ve been keeping an eye on this issue and I’ve tossed in my fair share of LVL 80 gear since the patch and have yet to see a non-LVL 80 come out. I’m sure it can happen, but I don’t think it is a common as those that originally complained about it wanted everyone to believe…..

Pretty sure it has always worked that way. I know for a fact it did this before the patch.
Per above, I don’t think it is broken.

I just crafted 210 rare Krait greatswords and threw them all in the forge. Out of the 12 exotics i got from burning through these only 4 where actually lvl 80. Doesnt sound all to uncommon huh. The rares where all lvl 80 tho

Could be that only Exotics have the wider range of output? All my tosses have been Green and a few Rares (and not nearly as large as your sample). I’m still gearing up all my toons with Exotics, so I don’t toss them in the Flusher yet (still need Ectos).

I think when upgrading to a higher tier it can yield a level that is below the weapons used. Or maybe just when upgrading to exotics.
Either way, it sucks

‘working as intended’ its still pretty stupid imo

It’s only exotics that come out below level 80. Four level 80 rares can lead to a 76-80 exotic or an 80 rare. Four level 80 exotics lead to a 76-80 exotic.
