expert trophy palladium recipes still good???

[hyphnos]

I know its early in the expansion but I am pulling my hair out
trying to make 2 of the items for the expert trophy.

Palladium Lapis Lazuli Earring
Jaded Palladium Bracelet

I've managed to make a practice palladium earring and
a practice bracelet. I have the solo setting tool but don't seem to be able
to make it rotate to anything else and the way the new system is i wonder
do these items still exist under those names anymore?

anyone who knows or has any feedback please let me know.

thanks all

Those are old recipes and we've been told they should work. Look up the recipe on this site, they do not use the new tool.

As stated, the old recipes still work.

Based on pure conjecture, I would assume the new JC system should work as well, as long as the recipe results in the exact same item (exact same, meaning the result generates from the same coded piece, such as the transition from old research to new research results in the same items, even though they use a different recipe).

Doh I will have to check...

In theory, to rotate the tool, you put it alone in a JC kit and hit combine. Did you try that?

[hyphnos]

some possibly all palladium + vendor combines do be broked

First off, sorry all for the lack of precision in my first post. i should have mentioned the first
thing i tried was the old recipes prior to the hair pulling out The first thing I did
was get the recipes as posted here and when they didn't work that's when I went
exploring and in the course of fiddling around made the practice items.

In further news, just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating last night.

i tested both problematic palladium combines for the expert trophy in:

refinorced jeweler's kit
jewelry kit
planar jeweler's kit

Recipe for Palladium Lapis Lazuli Earring used is as follows
1 x Prismatic Palladium Bar
1 x Lapis Lazuli

result: you cannot combine these items in this container type

Recipe for Jaded Palladium Bracelet
1 x Prismatic Palladium Bar
1 x Jade

result: you cannot combine these items in this container type

every other old style recipe with electrum, silver, gold, platinum i tried seemed fine

I tested cat's eye agate + prismatic palladium bar
same result so it seem its a bug with palladium recipes.

When I run into a chanter friend i'll try the recipes with enchanted palladium
and see if that works.

From what I can tell all the old recipies have been nerfed for all ENCHANTED metals and for all things palladium. I do not have SoF, so of course the abilities I bought to enchante the here-to-fore prismatic palladium bar was a waste of time and money and I can't test what would happen had I enchanted the Prismatic Palladium bar.

Prismatic Palladium bars and black sapphires seem to be the bane of my existance at the moment. Old recipies do not work and neither do new recipies. The book from the new jewelcraft merchant says I should be able to cut black sapphires to square shapes. That isn't happening. Prismatic Palladium bars are not combining in any of the old recipies....

I am really sad. I was skilling up nicely toward 300 on black sapphire palladium combines and black sapphire velium combines and fire opal palladium combines. Now all my recipies are gone and everything I have figured out how to make the new way is below my current skill level of 284.

Looking forward to getting some of these glitches worked out....

Patients grasshopper. There are thousands of changes that had to be updated and checked for the change. Sometimes mistakes happen. Sometimes players make mistakes. Sometimes you have to learn a new recipes. There are still plenty of other combines that you can work on until this gets fixed or you can just wait until the /bug reports get looked into and corrected.

It makes me sad that people can't just report the problems and wait patiently for them to be corrected (if indeed there is a problem), and think posting a guilt trip will make anyone feel more like helping to get it fixed.

Anything with palladium and non-drop gems will have been disabled. The combines with drop gems should still work.

So yes I broke the trophies. I am working on fixing them today, unfortunately they need a full patch so will not be fixed until next week.

[Zaltak]

So the bottom line is if you have scale ore and Prismatic paladium bars just destroy em?
I thought the new ability to enchant palladium "summoned" the bars do we still have to convert em from scale ore and then have them enchanted?

[Ngreth Thergn]

Or get an enchanter to enchant them...

[Ngreth Thergn]

I have fixed the quest, but as mentioned it needs a full patch to fix.

[Etoile deCartier]

So two questions:

Does that mean that the black sapphire / prismatic palladium bar combines will work again eventually since black sapphires are dropped?

Conversely, fire opal / prismatic palladium bar will not combine because you can buy fire opal?

And I am sorry - I didn't mean to "guilt trip". I had just spent hours and hours working on the new combines and was sad and frustrated in my efforts to find ANY recipies that worked at my skill level that I could afford to do solo.

Thank you Ngreth for fixing things that need fixed.

[Ngreth Thergn]

I am not sure from home what is still in and what is not, so I cannot properly answer that today.

Tested a little. My enchanter got the AAs to enchant the palladium. I am not certain which of the below items are intended and which are bugs.

1. The baker trophy only fits in primary, secondary, range now.
2. The jeweler trophy only fits in range now.
3. All the others fit in primary, secondary, range and ammo as before.
4. The mass enchant palladium only results in 10 enchanted palladium bars, not 20.
5. Black sapphire + prismatic palladium bar in a reinforced jewelry bag = DNC
6. Black sapphire + enchanted palladium bar in a reinforced jewelry bag = DNC (dont have time to try with a cutting tool test on these)
7. Using the mass enchant palladium greys out all three enchant palladium aas for one hour.
8. Mass Enchant Palladium and Enchant Palladium show up under DoN aas.
9. Enchant Palladium Trio shows up under SoF aas.
10. The only palladium recipe showing up in my search anymore on the tradeskill window is Prismatic Palladium bar. I have made several different palladium + dropped gem combine in the past, so it appears all of these are now disabled.

I didnt have time to fiddle around with more combines. I have a turkey to combine!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
