    Crafting output glitch

    So, this was pretty weird and it's never happened to me before. I was making some Dragon Finger Gauntlets for a friend who is trying to HQ Cursed Finger Gauntlets for himself. I had a set of 12. On the 10th, I hq'd. 11 NQ'd, then on 12:
    - I saw the HQ animation start and rofl'd at his shitty luck
    - I opened my inventory to gaze upon the waste of two HQs
    - Before I scrolled down, I noticed in my log that it said the synth failed
    - I scrolled down and saw the HQ still there

    I got a SS just as it was finishing but not combining the bizarre elements that would prove I'm not insane:

    Also, in Plusx's log he said it didn't display anything, break or NQ. I don't really have any conclusions to draw from it, except that it's interesting that there's some sort of game bug which mixes up HQs and breaks ("break then hq!" being a long-standing mantra). Just thought it was pretty weird and I'm curious if anyone else has seen this.

    happens when there's slight lag with the you and the server I find, I've only have had this happen when I r0. I break but happen to find out it's HQ

    I get that now and then, too. Break animation, yet there it is in your inventory. (I've seen both HQ and NQ.)

    It's a lag-related error- I usually see this happening in high-traffic areas like Jeuno.

    Also, ever seen people running and going straight into a synthesis animation?

    That happened to me on a haubergeon before Suji. I just never mentioned it because I figured it was a common thing.

    heh, cool. I guess it was pretty common after all. I wonder why it hit me though, considering that I was in south sandy and you can see my Rxxx is decent.

    Did I suddenly warp back to 2005 when Jeuno actually had enough people to cause severe lag?

    LJ still has a sizeable amount of people, not as crowded as lag-gate but still, people still gather there pre 50s

    I actually just saw this for the first time like 2 days ago. Some dude was just running along in South Sandy and in the middle of his torso is a NQ earth synth animation.

    Makes me wonder if they're trying to induce something by moving. What, I have no idea unless it's something latency-related.

    I've had it happen in windy outside the guild so it's not just plan old "600 ppl in zone" lag, but just likely any connectivity burp.

    Same thing tho log says crystal only break, item in inventory is HQ.
