Decided to take a break from collecting Mats for my end-game Slaver equip.... and pondered a lvl8 slaver set.
I got some nice mythic Heroic drops (Hardened Hide Helm, Slavers Cloak, Spinneret, Slavers Symbol, Breaker of Bodies), so figured I would tag them with Endurance set, and then make 5 more for Sorc Set (2 Chains, 2 Shackles, 1 Five Rings), and then CC some armor & Goggles, and just use my maxed out T.O.E.E. battleaxes (got 1 of each element).
Unfortunately... I picked the day Orien decided to fuck up.... only I didn't realize what was happening until WAY too late to avoid it.
I had everything written down, and listed the colors for each enhancement so I didn't fuck up (some enhancements can be found in multiple color gems).... checked things off as I went
Only what I didn't realize was the lag was fucking up the crafter, and I was 1 spot short of a bunch of gems. I would choose something, and it would make a gem of the selection immediately preceding it.
Happened on the gems I was making for a shackle and a chain... and now I have to go back and refarm the mats I need to do them again

I was so pissed, and I don't even think bitching @ staff to get the mats back is worth the time or effort, as they gave not the single shit when I tried to replace my missing lvl 16 Mysterious Bracers. When I got them to replace my missing flametouched warhammer with augment slot, they gave me a flametouched warhammer that wasn't good aligned with a broken slot that cant take augments...
*sigh*
