Regal Orb recipe undercut by Chaos Orb, both by Chance Orb recipe

Regal Orb recipe undercut by Chaos Orb, both by Chance Orb recipe

When adding all items (full set, item level 75+ and identified), one body armor item level 74 got added (want to sell it all at once).
Without the item level 74 body armor the vendor would have returned 1 Regal Orb.
When adding the item level 74 body armor to the full set at the Vendor, it would have returned 1 Chaos Orb + 7 Alteration Shards.

Probably not an intended effect.

[edit:] Patch 2.0.2b, Warbands League, about 10 minutes previous to this post.

[edit 2:] Clarification, that lower tier recipes exist is known, that this will result in a lower tier currency if the fully set isn't of the higher tier also.

Point of this has been, if it is still intended to override when a full higher tier set, plus an additional lower tier set compatible item is sold to any vendor at once.

[edit 3:]Further clarification.
Is the following recipe behavior by purpose?

(One full set, item level 75), vendor result 1 regal orb
(One full set, item level 75) + (one item, item level 60 to 74), vendor result 1 chaos orb
(One full set, item level 75) + (one item, item level 59 or less), vendor result 1 chance orb
(One full set, item level 60 to 74) + (one item, item level 59 or less), vendor result 1 chance orb

It is not about the case where the full set contains one or more lower tier items when being sold to a vendor.

It is about where an additional lower tier item is being sold to the vendor at the same time.

Intended as it's been specifically mentioned the lowest item level will be what the recipe recognizes, although I would like to see it changed. Just like how they prioritised Jeweller's over Chromatics in a 6S Chromatic item.

Hello,

if someone would be able to post a link on where "it's been specifically mentioned the lowest item level will be what the recipe recognizes", i'd be happy to read it.


Hello, linkstatic.

Supposing 1 Jeweller Orb is worth more than 1 Chromatic Orb (not taking into account that a 6S3L item can turn out either 7 jewellers or 1 chrome), your own argument would run counter to itself.
Confuses me a bit, did you mean something else or am i missing something?

Thank You for the post, the link is know to me, doesn't answer the question tough.
Main reason, it's not first hand knowledge, the wiki is a great thing, to some things not the solution tough.

Is that what you were looking for? =0[.]o=

While this is not a bug technically, you still need to look at the order the recipes are checked. I'm fine with the Chaos recipe overriding the Regal recipe if you add another item that fits it (since Chaos is actually a lot more useful than Regal). But the Chromatic recipe (an item with linked RGB sockets) overriding a much more valuable Chaos is NOT OK. When you have a full set of lv 60+ rares for Chaos, and 1 of them just happens to have RGB sockets on it, and it gives you a Chromatic instead of Chaos - that's just wrong.

A Chrome will never override a Chaos. I have never seen it, and I know for a fact this morning I had some chromes mixed in while I was making chaos.

Check again. I've had it happen just the other day. Either your RGBs were not linked, or you had extra pieces that completed Chaos without the Chromes. But if you try to turn in exactly 1 full set for Chaos, and 1 of those items happens to be a linked RGB, you will get a Chrome plus a bunch of fragments for the rest.

Main reason, it's not first hand knowledge, tough i admire the work others did there.

What i am looking for is some source on GGG side to clarify this, maybe even a direct answer to this post.
