List of bugged shards

[EllisDee37]

Here's a list of bugged shards in the new Cannith Crafting. In a perfect world, devs would see this and make these seemingly simple fixes on the development build so that they're fixed the next time we get a patch or update.

A bugged shard is defined as a shard whose description says it goes on an item, but the machine that attaches it says it goes somewhere else. In all cases on live, the machine wins over the shard.

Armor Piercing
Shard says: Prefix Weapon, Trinket; Suffix Gloves, Trinket
Machine says: Prefix Weapon, Shield; Suffix Gloves, Trinket

Insightful Deadly
Shard says: Extra Weapon, Trinket
Machine says: Extra Weapon, Shield

Spell Resistance
Shard says: Prefix Cloak, Belt, Armor, Shield, Trinket
Machine says: Prefix Cloak, Belt, Armor, Ring, Trinket

Parrying
Shard says: Suffix Helm, Belt, Boots, Trinket; Extra Bracers, Armor, Shield
Machine says: Suffix Helm, Belt, Boots, Trinket; Extra Bracers, Armor

Weapon damage effects: Acid, Cold, Electric, Fire, Sonic, Force, Light, Negative
Shards say: Suffix Weapon
Machine says: Prefix Weapon

Deathblock (bound only; unbound shard properly shows belt)
Shard says: Suffix Armor, Shield
Machine says: Suffix Belt, Armor, Shield

Doublestrike
Shard says: Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Trinket
Machine says: Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Shield

Doubleshot
Shard says: Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Trinket
Machine says: Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon

Incite
Shard says: Prefix Helmet, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Trinket
Machine says: Prefix Helmet, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Shield


Note: Red text simply highlights differences. It is not meant to imply that anything in red should be removed.


Post any more you find and I'll add them to the list.

I assume it's a bug although I think the shard/machine agree on the descriptions.

Bound deathblock shards cannot be put on belts, unbound deathblock shards can.

Confirmed in-game? The descriptions actually don't match: The bound shard says it goes on Armor, Shield, but the machine that attaches says Armor, Belt, Shield. So it should be able to go on belts.

This was in game but I'd have to check again, it just occurred to me that I may have tried to make it before the hotfix so maybe a change snuck in then.

[EllisDee37]

Added Doublestrike and Doubleshot to the list.

[Eryhn]

+1

stuff not going on trinket as advertized is particularly frustrating

[EllisDee37]

Found another one, added to the OP:

Incite as a suffix goes on "Weapon, Shield" not "Weapon, Trinket."

[TedSandyman]

Keen lists as offhand weapon/shield but will not go on a shield. I assume they dropped impact and simply allowed keen to apply to bludgeoning weapons. I don't know if leaving it off of shields was intentional or not.

edit: nvm i forgot the mark of cannith my bad, it's late

[huntdawumpus]

Bump.

Just got bit by the parrying shard bug. Wiki could've been clearer, too. "Shields (miss)" isn't exactly obvious.

[Cordovan]

Thanks for the list.

[SerPounce]

Two related issues:

1. In some places it says "off hand weapon/shield" where it should really just say "off hand weapon" (or maybe just "weapon"? Is there anything different about "off hand"?) because you can't apply some of those shards to shields (they're treated completely differently in new CC).

2. In lootgen insightful spell power goes into the "extra" slot, in CC it goes into the suffix slot. Donno if this is WAI or not, but it seems odd and inconsistent since "insightful X" is in all other case an "extra."

[EllisDee37]

Is there anything different about "off hand"?

"Off hand weapon" means one-handed weapons. It'll just say "Weapon" if it means any weapon, including two-handers.

I assume it's a bug although I think the shard/machine agree on the descriptions.

Bound deathblock shards cannot be put on belts, unbound deathblock shards can.

Unless I am misunderstanding...

[Eryhn]

Thanks for the list.

will this be targeted for fix any time soon?

[Krelar]

Unless I am misunderstanding...

I haven't tried it again in the 2 months since I posted. We've had a couple updates/patches since then, it's quite possible they fixed it.

[NoWorries]

I will try to have these fixed for the next update in the following way:


Armor Piercing
Prefix Weapon, Shield; Suffix Gloves, Trinket

Insightful Deadly
Extra Weapon, Shield. Trinket

Spell Resistance
Prefix Cloak, Belt, Armor, Shield, Ring, Trinket

Parrying
Suffix Helm, Belt, Boots, Trinket; Extra Bracers, Armor, Shield

Weapon damage effects: Acid, Cold, Electric, Fire, Sonic, Force, Light, Negative
Prefix Weapon

Deathblock (bound only; unbound shard properly shows belt)
Suffix Belt, Armor, Shield

Doublestrike
Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Shield

Doubleshot
Prefix Belt, Gloves, Trinket; Suffix Weapon

Incite
Prefix Helmet, Trinket; Suffix Weapon, Shield

Looks good.

While you're in there, would you consider adding keen to shields?

I can get behind the logic of not including doublestrike and doubleshot suffix on trinkets. Keeping the suffix versions weapon-only seems fine. (Prefix still goes on Belt, Gloves, Trinket, so flexibility is still there.)

Honestly, I could also see keeping Insightful Deadly off trinkets. (You have it penciled in to be put back on trinkets.) I might just leave it as a weapon/shield only effect. I'm sure most people would rather be able to put it on trinkets, but I've made my peace with not having it and putting it on trinkets presents tough choices for both already-crafted gearsets and future gearset planning. Then again, tough choices = good game design, so I could go either way.

Yeah, currently the only reason to craft a dps weapon is to get that other exceptional bonus to dmg, the weapon effects are generally really bad.

Fixable by:
*********
Adding vorpal to be craftable (for the +W)
Adding back scaling version of keen (for the +W)
+weapon/shield exclusive insightful deadly

This makes up for an ~okay DPS offhand item, not brilliant but works if someone just cant get a named alternative.

Don't do that!
