You'll notice the time in game as 11:25pm. That was ten minutes ago. I have to say I'm a little bothered that I believed what I was told in the release notes, then lost materials on this item that I won't want.
We're working on changes right now that will remove these [Mod]s from future crafted items. After examining their effectiveness, their intended audience, and their intended use-cases, we decided that rolling these in as random equipment suffixes is not a great idea. And that, if we ever return to this idea of PvP-centric gear, we need to more closely examine what it's intended to do, how effective it needs to be, and how it is obtained.
In other words, consider it an experiment that didn't work out.
We're still examining options on what to do about existing items that have these mods attached.

Apparently Not, since I kept getting them on the stuff I was crafting.
