Are Mystic Forge Stone bugged ?
Ever since the update to the Mystic Forge, putting in Level 80 items can return Level 70+ items. So, yes, it is working as intended.
An update to the Mystic Forge ? Didn’t know that happened …

Only the distribution of exotics was changed.
- Combining four greens L74 or better always returns an L80 (green or rare). (Souce: 1,000s of forges.)
- Combining four rares with an average level of 75 returns an L80 rare (80%) or an exotic (20%); the exotic can be anywhere from L75-80. (Source: Nugkill on Reddit )
