Crafter Class: Artificer
Recipe: Basalt Block
Location: IoD
Issue: During the crafting process, you're not presented with the opportunity to add attuning dust during the creation of block(s)

I've tested with several different dusts (Intelligence, Constitution, Vitality, Dexterity) and quantities of attempted crafted items (1,3,5), and at the point you're supposed to be able to add the dust - right after you select how many items you're going to craft - the icon for the dust never appears. I've verified that the dust is on my table and is a dust that can be added to this resource (Slab). I've even put a couple different dusts on the table, but it still never appeared.

I tested with the Weakened Board recipe - that worked correctly. I tested Quartz Jewel which also worked correctly. I logged in another toon and tested Jute Bale - also successfully. I have not been able to test other Xxxx Block Recipes, so I can't confirm if it is all Block recipes or just the Basalt Block one. I don't have any other crafters at this moment to test any of the other 1st tier resource refining recipes.

This is actually intentional.

As I posted here on the thread for Artificer's: viewtopic.php?f=60&t=4891

Basalt Stone Block: Mostly Compete. I tested to make sure it would make the 7 types of slabs we have. I tested one of them with the one, three, and five slabs. It would take too long to test them ALL so going to just leave this for now. I can see that some of the other attuning dusts say 'slabs' on it, but we've no evidence that these slabs use them. I will find out for certain when I get to the primary components, so I'm going to leave it as it is for now and come back to this later when I'm on the primary stuff.

The ones you can make now are: Power, Fire, Ice, Arcane, Substance, Cerebral, and Spirits.

The Issue is that the Sigil/SOE Devs were not consistent especially with Artificing (Which is why we had to completely redo how crafted jewels work), and the same goes for the Stone Blocks, in that they allowed you make, for example, Sentry's Stone Block (Strength). And then when you get to the primary recipes there is not a single one that lets you use a Sentry's Stone Block. Until we decide how we want to handle that, we leave it be.

When you get to T2, it allows you make the stone blocks with the normal set of attuning dusts, as there are recipes for slate stone hammers and truncheons.

I understand now. I was under the mistaken impression that it'd still let you make them, even if you couldn't use them. Apologies for overlooking that.
