Under the impression that I could make my bow a Nirvana I did just that.


With my +12 2 socket Heaven Shatterer (lunarglade)


What was the outcome you might ask?


A nirvana bow without the refines/sockets.


A video will be posted here shortly.

In the video you will see me typing N.

Before that I typed Y Yes copy pasted Y, nothing but the letter N would go into that box. If I put nothing in the box you could not click confirm.

    because it takes like a TT weapon not just any bow can become nirvana (think it has to be TT90?) and 100 crystals b:shocked

    Yeah, it has to be TT or Lunar in order to be recast.. so to just come up with a random lower refine weapon to test first would still cost quite a bit of coin. Obviously not the same amount as losing the refines in the first place, but to buy the weapon, and the stones/crystals/whatever, then test it.. meh. It wouldn't be cheap.

    didnt the gms say that refines and gems are supposed to transfer over to the new item? this means it's bugged, and they'll probably fix it for you some how.

    That is not a bug.

    It has been stated before that only upon rerolling the stats that the refines/sockets stay (or at least I knew this since a little while back cause I read it somewhere - little while back being at most 3 days dont remember exactly when or what post). In the initial stage where you make the TT/lunar weapon/armor into nirvana gear, sockets/refines don't retain

    i know which is all the more reason not to use a +12 one. he should have used a lesser refined one or just let someone else test it instead of risking his +12 bow.

    They never stated it outright until someone tried it.




    At any rate PWI is stuck inbetween a rock and a hard place.







    If they want to make money on these new packs they cant have people saying that its pointless:


    Lose $2000+.

    Uhm originial post by Kantorek:

    You can transfer Refine Level and Socket/Gems when you re-forge Nirvana gear without the use of Chienkun stones (which was previously impossible since we have never released them.)

    You will still need the requisite Uncanny / Rapture stones.


    There is only one option to reforge/reroll stats. That is only after the weapon has been turned into a nirvana weapon/armor, losing its refines and sockets. He said that pretty much the first time the thread on the clarification was made. Frankie just said the same thing again today.
