For those unable to upgrade, do you have a second character at WT5?

If you do, could you check if you are able to upgrade the crafting bench using that character?

Any other information you think might be useful is much appreciated as well.

not sure how to upload from my phone with reddit app.

You can upload the picture to a hosting site like imgur.com and then link it here. Alternatively you can post it on Twitter, if you have that, and just link me the tweet. Whatever is easiest for you!

hmmm... well it’s telling me I need to complete tidal basin.

Can you try logging out and back in? Just to make sure, you are at World Tier 5, right?

i only have one character now (deleted other one). logged out then back in and it is still telling me to complete the goal project to upgrade to WT5 crafting... like it’s telling everyone else.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. A picture will definitely help then. To confirm the steps: When you finish Tidal Basin and reach WT5 you have to manually upgrade the work bench to allow crafting to 490 and once you've acquired that update another, new option will be available. This will then allow you to craft Gear Score 500 items, but you have to use some high-level items to get there.

ive been at WT5 for months now. completed Tidal Basin last night and well as that goal project months ago. there is a bug related to the crafting bench, shared blueprints and players having more than one character. not a user error it’s a developer error. those three things are the common denominators from the comments ive seen on discord and here. a going through extra steps to upload screenshot of what I described was wrong wont resolve the issue.

Sorry if you thought I'm implying a user error, that's not what I'm suggesting. We're trying to figure out what is causing it and how it's preventing players from upgrading. Therefore a screenshot is just helpful and my advise was more meant to clarify the steps to ensure we're not talking about separate things.

Thanks for helping!

Its been 2 days and we havent been given any update. I have a project that says it unlocks the bench but ive been at WT5 for months now and was told that it would auto unlock. I dont no want to have to do a bunch of work for something that was said to be automatic.

The upgrade being available was meant to be automatic. We did not want to imply that you can automatically get 500 gear without doing anything.

We mentioned this as we talked about the changes since we explained that you will need to deconstruct 490 gear, so that fresh WT5 players wouldn't just be able to craft 500 when arriving there.

We're currently still looking to fix this issue and I don't have an update for you as of now. Some players have reported that re-playing Tidal Basin unlocked the upgrade for them.

Once we have a bug fix we'll let everybody know.
