Epic Phiarlan Mirror Cloak with old augment slot

I have an older Epic Phiarlan Mirror Cloak. It says:

"Empty Colorless Augment Slot: This item can be upgraded with a Colorless Augment Crystal. Note: This Augment Slot is unable to hold newly-acquired augments. To upgrade this augment slot, place the item together with 50 Siberys Dragonshard Fragments into the Altar of Epic Rituals near The Twelve."

So I'm standing at the Altar of Epic Rituals in the Twelve, and trying to put the cloak in there (I have unlocked it and taken it off). All I get is:

"Epic Phiarlan Mirror Cloak is not accepted by this trader."

I get the same message if I try to put in the dragonshard fragments.

What's going on? How do I upgrade that slot? Thanks for any hints. I feel like I'm forgetting or missing something here.

Assuming the slot is empty, keep it in your inventory then relog, it should auto-update to the new slot type.

I've also tried in the Legacy Altar of Epic Rituals after some guildies recommended it. Still nothing. Another relog, nothing. I think this cloak might just be bugged. Going to see if I can just make a new one.

wow that augment slot is one of the old, old ones.

I have upgraded those types of items in the altar of epic rituals (which is now the Legacy altar of epic rituals), but not since the deprecation of the khyber dragonshards.

In any case, have you tried upgrading it on the Legacy altar without the dragonshards? At first it required dragonshards, but it seems they removed that. If that doesn't work with or without dragonshards, it's because those types of upgrades have been removed from Legacy. Luckily, getting a modern heroic cloak to improve it is very easy, they have a good drop.

as Lazuli said, try both with and without the dragonshards. also, i forgot which ones, some old items vanish and turn into some ingredient that lands into green bags, and re-used into the legacy altar to get the item back. just saying, maybe will happen, maybe not.

if nothing works, i guess that the best use for that item is checking if it is accepted as base ingredient to craft the lvl 30 version.

That worked! I put it into the Legacy Altar of Epic Rituals alone with no shards, and it landed as an Essence in my green bags. I then put that Essence back into the Alter alone again, and now I have the updated item.

Thank you!
