Armorsmithing - Disappearing Crafting Receipies, Categories and Change of Order

This bug is connected to the armorsmithing menu, it could be more then one thing that is not behaving like intended in the system but it is impossible for me to tell in the client.

Description: The list of “recipes” and their categories are not displayed correctly every time that I open the crafting tab at the armorsmith station.

  • One or more armor or component recipies disappeared.
  • One or more categories completely disappeared, including the whole header/title (ex Boots did not exist at all).
  • The order of the recipies in a category could change randomly.
  • The order of the categories could change randomly.

How Often: I have seen this happen once or twice in the past but thought it was just a trick of the mind because I was tired or similar things but today (12th December) was different. One or more of the listed problems probably occurred 4 out of 10 times that I opened the crafting window.

Quick Fix: Choose another tab in the crafting window, like that discovery tab and then go back to the crafting tab. It usually fix the problem.

Notes: The bug appeared to be completely random. It hit me that it looked like the bug could be tied with loss of information when some things did not appear in the list but why would that affect the order?

Common things to my behavior when using the crafting window is:

  • I often forget to purchase things from the crafting vendor like those threads for wool, silk etc.
  • I often have the trading company window open so that I can instantly purchase components that I am missing.
  • My inventory is often also open (I typically sort them so that I got the inventory window on the left edge of the screen, trade post window in the middle and my crafting window on the right edge).
  • I did notice that the windows, sometimes have problems with determining who it is that got focus, I tries searching for something in the trading post and found that the game was determined to interact with the chat window(?). Had to close and reopen the whole trading post window to solve this. Key inputs also, sometimes, like into the game world and starts moving the character or open other windows etc.
  • I am often bad at closing windows properly, it is really common that they get closed because I move away my character from the crafting station.

That is all that I could think of at the moment, I sadly did not think of making a screenshot but will try to remember this the next time I see some form of this bug.

ps. The game might have bugs but I still want to compliment the dev team for a great game. It got that special magic which makes you want to turn on the computer as soon as you get home from work or errands. A MMO have never been this good before
