Items that have Issues with Transmutation / Appearance / Reclaims

zebular · February 2015

I'm putting together a list of items going for my report next week. If you know of items with issues relating to Transmutation, Appearance, or Reclaiming, please let me know here!

Please be as specific as possible on what items cannot be transmuted, whether or not they cannot be used as a transmute or transmuted onto, or what the exact issue is pertaining to transmutation, appearance, or reclamation.

Transmute Issues:

[Ring of Violent Luminescence] (Cannot use as a transmute)
[Stone of Earth] (Cannot use as a transmute)
[Slayer Amulet of Xvim] (Can not be transmuted. Can be dyed.)
[Slayer Belt of Xvim] (Can not be transmuted. Can be dyed.)

Appearance issues:

[Griefstone Circlet] (Has no appearance on female characters)
[Amulet of Flame] (Possible clipping issues. Shows on paperdoll but barely noticeable in game)
[Hexbane Hood] (No visuals on female characters)
[Dragonslayer Boots] (No visuals on female characters)
[Draconic Scepter] (Has no visuals when idle)
[Hardened Dragonscale Armor] (No visuals on male characters)

[Symbol of Martyrs] (DC: In Divine Mode, visual effects appear below character)
[Dragon Bone Scepter] (DC: In Divine Mode, visual effects appear below character)

[Cape of Catastrophe] (Should be made reclaimable for characters who got it or made account-wide reclaim)
[Foundry Apprentice Cloak] (Should be made reclaimable for the account)
[Foundry Artifex Cloak] (Should be made reclaimable for the account)

Thank you for this post, Zeb!
I am using the Amulet of Flame as a transmute on my MoF CW. I can see it clearly in my character screen but it is barely noticeable in-game. May be some sort of clipping issue?

I'm not sure if it fits in this topic but I'm gonna take my chances

Dread Legion head piece and boots have a visual issue. While chest piece and gloves have their lightning effect pointed to the front of them (you know, when you look at the item when previewing or just at 'C') while head and boots are lighten up from BEHIND. It's not gamebreaking but REALLY annoying since it's just hard to see the overall effect while dying and stuff.

Could you post screenshots for me of what you're describing, both in the paperdoll and in the game avatar? Just want to make sure I word it right but I think I know what you're talking about. Thanks!

zekethesinner · February 2015

I wonder if it match too, i will put this here anyway, i have lost hope they will ever look into this. male warriors tries to cut themself in half with they own swords. As we can see evrything is almost good in character select window and sheet (could do a lil adjustment)

Technicly sword is an item with appearence problem, who cares its like all the swords or rather all 2h weaps of male gwf, right?

Pretty please.

He meant some sets have revesed shadows on some parts (boots and glovers) while armor has it shadow on back in sheet (also in game) bracers/glover can have shadow on front, and enlighter part on back. Unfotunetly many classes and sets or single items (many of them look nice from transmute point of view) have this issue.

edit, addec screenshot. As u can see on them, glovers have light fading on them from back, while armor is lit from front.

Also i remember than for sure infernal armor for gwf has this issue (i remember i was in love with it, matched eprfectly my drow warrior, but it was lit on back lol, while front was covered in shadow...)

Golden Dragon's Courage (and presumably the other GF artifact mainhands) - Plague Fire (and again presumably other) weapon enchant visual effects show on the haft and hilt of the weapon and not on the blade.

ryugasirius · February 2015

I've noticed that the Bahamut pack main-hand transmute for DCs (symbol) does not show properly in preview window (you see just the grip). I didn't test for other Bahamut items though.

elvenaar · February 2015

Dunno if this is the place for it as it's not really an item problem, but the HRs in civvies look really out of whack in-game as to how they look under C and in the character selection screen. In-game they are hunch=backed heavily as they don't have the bow on their backs when in civvies, but oddly enough this doesn't happen under C or in the char selection screen even when the bow is on their backs, so really wierd and it's been like this since the HR came out too.

zwergenschubser · February 2015

hello zeb,

[*][Slayer Amulet of Xvim] (Can not be transmuted. Can be dyed.)

i have an "Slayer Amulet of Xvim" transmuted and now its bound on charakter but it should be bound to account. can u add this circumstance to the list too?

thanks

naicalus · February 2015

Cloak of the Guardian of Neverwinter is character-bound, any character-bound item you use to transmute another item makes the transmuted item character-bound, that's why your slayer amulet became charbound.

zwergenschubser · February 2015

but is it right? makes no sence to me, maybe the transmute of accbounditems need a rework. i can delete the xvim now its stucked on a lvl 60...

Yeah, that's pretty much this what Zeke said.

I've got a screenie but I'm afraid I don't know how to post it here?. Do I need to upload it somewhere like imgur/imageshack and then post an url or is there a straightforward way involving nothing but forum options?

I'm having the same issues with [Sunite Garb] - the shadow on the arms part is reversed. Same for my CW hats.

These reversed shadows only appear when I switch the lighting quality from high to low.

Yes, tho lightig quality is one of those options is keep low.

Thanks everyone. A lot of these clipping issues and shading/lightning issues, I'll be compiling into a separate entry in my report, so that is why I am not updated the OP of this thread with them. Wanting to keep this thread mostly about transmute appearance issues and reclaims. Still, feel free to reply with other appearance issues. I'll compile it all in some format, for sure.

Someone posted a thread in the bug forum that the inscribed shirt doesn't show up on HRs.

Thanks! I'll track that down and include it in my updated report for next week. As it is now, at the time of this post, everything in the OP of the thread has been filed into my report sent off earlier today. I also included notes about some of the clipping issues, shader issues, and lighting issues from the above posts that aren't noted in the actual OP of this thread.

Thanks all for the feedback so far! Please do feel free to keep the feedback coming in. I'll continue to provide updated reports on newly posted issues in my future weekly feedback reports.

mechomancer · February 2015

Zeb,
I posted about this before, http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?836731-So-before-I-transmute-to-Tiefling-Orb

Orb is on its side.

While we are on the subject of orbs for CW, there are MANY orbs that are on their sides. Not just ones from CtA events, but drops from PvE content. The Dread Legion orb, the stone/crystal floats outside of its cage AND its on its side. I'm sure the CW community can chime in and add to the list of orbs that do not transmute correctly.

Thanks for finally putting a post for these issues.
