Hi,

I have 3 level 80 characters.
On 1 of my characters, I am level 500 Weaponsmith, and I wanted to create Ascended Greatswond (Soros’s Claymore) for my alt who doesn’t have Weaponsmith.
I created all 4 components required to create an Ascended Greatsword (Soros’s Claymore).

Soros’ Assassin Inscription
Vision Crystal
Deldrimor Steel Greatsword Blade
Deldrimor Steel Greatsword Hilt

I didn’t see how to create it via the crafting list, and it didn’t allow me to discover it. I then went to the mystic forge, and still no.
I then went back to the Weaponsmith Vendor and saw Recipe: Ascended Greadsword.
It didn’t say Weaponsmith (500) on it, but only “Double-click and choose which Ascended Greatsword recipe to receive.”
I thought great, I’ll buy the Recipe with my alt and create it.
I then bought the Recipe: Ascended Greatsword from the Weaponsmith for 5 Laurels + 3 gold with my alt.
I thought that if I double-clicked this Recipe, it would open up the Ascended Greatsword creation window and allow me to create it.
However, when I double-clicked on it, instead it flashed on-screen like recipe learned, then nothing happened. Didn’t allow me to choose anything.
There is no indication if only a level 500 weaponsmith can create this item.
So now I have lost 5 Laurels + 3 gold.
I thought that this maybe a bug. I learned Weaponsmith (0) via the alt and low and behold, Soros’s Claymore (Ascended) is on the crafting list, but I need to be (500).
How does it know I needed to create Soros’s Claymore when I didn’t choose it?
All I did was double-click Recipe: Ascended Greatsword. I couldn’t choose anything after that.
Also, why are the Ascended Weapon Recipes at the wendor not saying you need to be Weaponsmith (500) in order to use it, like the Inscriptions on the previous tab.

Now I have lost 5 days of playtime due to a bug, or a poorly implemented Ascended Weapon crafting system.

Can I get those 5 Laurels + 3 gold back, or at the very least, the Recipe: Ascended Greatsword sent to me via in-game mail so I can create it with the other lat?

The recipe’s at the vendor should also be fixed to include the text Weaponsmith (500).

You have to buy the receipe and craft the weapon of course on your character that has 500 in weaponcrafting, what else would be the sense that you need 500 ?

The weapon is account-bound after that, so you can transfer it to your alt via your bank.

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
