Armor upgrade lowering stats
Sticking this in here in the hope that someone will actually know of a 100% work around or I might actually get a timely official response.
I have purchased armor from the common data crystal vendor on both fleets and on Yavin. Whenever I equip the armor, all of the stats on the character with the new upgraded armor, fall.
Here is a run down of one armor upgrade attempt:
I am replacing:
Yavin Force-Lord's Robe MK-2 (578 armor, +181 mastery, +218 endurance, +105 power, +91 crit). With:
Outlander Force-Lord's Robe MK-4 (674 armor, +297 mastery, +344 endurance, +122 power, +137 crit)
Health goes from 52,074 to 49,577
Armor Rating goes from 3,178 - 2,610
Damage goes from 1,763-2,148 - 1,698-2,083
Crit Chance goes from 24.27% - 22.44%
As you can see all of the stats on the upgraded robe should be improving my character, but they don't.
I have tried taking the armor off and putting it back on. I have tried relogging. This did not fix the problem.
It was suggested on the SWTOR forum that my buffs had expired or that level synch was causing a problem on whichever planet I was on. The buffs were active and except for testing things on Yavin, all of the armor purchases have been carried out on the faction fleets.
This bug is account wide, I have tried it on a couple of different servers.
As it stands it is now 9 days since I first hit this bug with the only response from offical support has been that they are looking into the issue.
I'm sure someone will come on and say that the bug isn't stopping me playing, it's only affecting armor. But when the characters buying the armor are close to maxing out on crystals, not being able to spend them (without buying decorations/companion gifts) is stopping me.
