EmperorSteele Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 So I was re-doing my build, and decided I wanted the Purple Hold damage proc, so I grabbed a 50+5 Purple Hold enhancement I had and got to converting. Well, at first I thought it was nifty that it was keeping the +5 on all the results... but, it wasn't giving me the proc. I burned a solid ~60 converters or so before I thought "Wait, maybe the proc can't be +5'd, so that's why it's not showing up?" And then Boom, success! But wait... why was the level red? What's this warning message? ...Oh. Oh no!! I mean I could just convert it again or put it on the market and it'll go back to normal, probably. In either case, figured you'd all get a kick out of this mishap: 1 2

In either case, figured you'd all get a kick out of this mishap: That's interesting! I'm sure you've already put in some sort of a petition or bug report, just to let them know, but I'd just burn 3 more converters and then if you like, I can trade you any purple you like for the proc that you can actually use. (although I suspect you've already addressed this)

Yomo Kimyata Posted June 28, 2022 Posted June 28, 2022 Clearly you just need to level up to 52. Geesh! All this whining! 6 Who run Bartertown?
tidge Posted June 29, 2022 Posted June 29, 2022 Some time ago.... I want to say that converting a boosted Very Rare into one of the %proc pieces DIDN'T turn it red, but I can't be certain as I wasn't rolling for the %proc. I also noticed that recently it was having this behavior (see my other threads on slotting Howling Twilight, I was trying to convert some spare 50+5 pieces into something else).
Andreah Posted June 29, 2022 Posted June 29, 2022 Would putting it in the auction clear the boosts off it?

Six-Six Posted July 6, 2022 Posted July 6, 2022 Yes, putting boosted IOs in the AH is one way to remove the boosts. My Toons

Loc Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 I've had this happen several times when converting a +5 IO. Attuning it should also fix the issue.

Yes attuning would allow it to be slotted, but for very rates and pvp IOs besides a proc, attuning them actually is a decrease in efficiency as they are designed to auto exempt down to lvl 10.

Further by exemplaring in the game you are exempting yourself from your character's level, allowing you to play with others without skewing the playability of their mission too far, and therefore are exempt in that regards. 2
Yomo Kimyata Posted August 21, 2022 Posted August 21, 2022 The suggestion has been made before, but I feel that if you could use a catalyst to *unattune* an attuned IO to its maximum level, it would add some benefits with no particular downside that leaps to mind. 1 Who run Bartertown?
