			It's actually loot in preperation for a class that will be released in the next content patch.  They've kept it under wraps for awhile and have done well to hide it, but now, the truth is out!

			this cant be working as intended ive put in multiple bug reports, tickets about the item. But the response to those tickets is to come here and post. When you come here and post. Can we please get a response on this item, as well as the gloves?	
----
			Sounds like all the tanking Eldan Guantlets.  The 5th imbuement is literally worthless.  None of the tanking classes can critically heal another player and cannot proc it...	
----
			bumping to get seen by a dev cause it would be nice to get a rare pattern and have the special on it actually work for the classes that can wear the piece of the gear im gonna keep bumping till a dev or support or someone says something.	
----
			WRU devs? shed some light on the situation.	
----
			
If memory serves this happens on a few other pieces all through the tech tree as well.  Somewhere, the item generation code seems to think that healer specials are valid for heavy armor wearers.  It is usually shoulders with a special, but it happens on a other pieces sometimes as well.  I think we just see it on shoulders because there are so few shoulder specials in the system.
 
It'd be nice if someone could have a chat with that piece of code and explain how the world works to it.	
----
			
The Archivos light armor shoulders with the tanking special actually give me hope that we will soon get light armor tanks, maybe in the way SWTOR does it.
 
Because otherwise, this makes absolutely zero sense.

It sounds like the specials on all the Archivos armor got switched somehow. The problem is the speed at which it's being addressed.
----
			Hey guys, I pinged the Econ/Itemization guys about this today actually.  I sent them this thread and one of the ones from the general forum and they're looking into stuff.	
----
			
^^^ Dude, it's too late.   Where were you when this problem happened?  And why do you have to send this to them? The "Econ/Itemization Team" can't check the forums?   Or even better - they can't check their own section of the game?? Seriously, do they click upload on Drop 3, give a round of high-fives, and go on vacation?    I don't get how a person can collect a paycheck and be so oblivious to the work they've done.  
 
It may not be their 'job' to look on forums or provide QA, but...  don't people give a damn about the things they create anymore?    Who are these people that do so bad and keep their jobs?

			Can we have a dev update on when all these Archivos pieces will be fixed?	
----
			bumping we want a response to this ridiculous lack of attention to detail~	
----
			...	
----
			Still waiting.	
----
			Bump for response.

I have just flagged this to VikingNoah directly to get an update.
 
It may be that this is part of a wider project to sort out a lot of item specials, but it may be a individual fix we could push. I don't know so have asked the chap who does to update us all. ;)	
----
			Thank you, always appreciate when you get involved Analth ^^

			you might not be mad about this, but i'm more than mildly agitated about the attention to detail that went in to these items including the special and only being able to have 2 runeslots on the GA pattern gear and not even able to add more... im already wearing light armor because the stats are better budgeted on the SS versions of light armor than the heavy armor versions of engineer dps armor. can i a tleast have my full ability to rune the light armor?

			UPDATE PLEASE!

			It would be awesome for this to get fixed.  The cloth shoulders would be worth getting w/ the Reduced Burden special.	
----
			still no update on this huh?	
----
			Most companies try to find ways to get their customers more engaged.   No sympathy for people this high up the Don't Give a *cupcake* tree.	
----
			/boggle ?	
----
			Bumping for justice.	
----
			Maybe we will be lucky today and hear something?!	
----
			fingers cross for drop 4?	
----
			
dear Carbine please don't tell us that your looking into the matter and then never give us information on said matter, It makes us believe that 1) its broken and you cant fix it so you go silent, 2) your ignoring us and just giving us the runaround, 3) can't keep promises. 
 
What happened to biweekly patch anyways? that didn't last long.

Hi all - Timetravel and CRB_Anlath have done their due diligence with bringing this (as well as a bad Tailor-crafted item special) to my attention.
A fix was made nearly a month ago, but I am not allowed to comment on when the fix will be released.
I will try to fish up a more definitive answer for you Mon Jan 5. At any rate, just wanted to give you a heads-up.

Its the 6th already......... your timelines........CMON! Also bug fixes do not = new content stop trying to pass them off as such just put out the fixes as you fix them. An entire drop + bug fixes puts you behind the curve again because you will have to adjust some of those fixes as well as deal with even more bugfrom the new content.
 
You guys are seriously just digging a grave filling it a little and then just digging even deeper.
 
The community knows there will be bugs we understand and accept that. The HUGE problem is the amount of time it takes you guys to fix the bugs and problems.	
----
			
Hi all - I apologize for the delayed response. I did myself and y'all a disservice by naming a date.
I am currently pushing for an earlier date on the ETA for the fix, but was unable to lock everyone down yesterday.
Those efforts will continue today.	
----
			Thank you very much for the information. You guys should start under promising and over delivering content/fixes more so people become pleasantly surprised, and so I don't have to threaten to drive an hour north to pee on all the car door handles in your parking area.	
----
			how is the ETA on this push coming along?	
----
			I would have guessed patch 1.2.0, but this fix hasn't yet made it onto build 7038 of the PTR...	
----
			the dev post higher on this page says hes trying to get it pushed sooner then that

Hi all,
 
I wanted to pass along some info I dug up regarding some of the crafted items on this thread:
~Archivos CW-5 Phageblade - This item should be fixed in tomorrow's (Tue Jan 13) patch.
~Archivos HA-5S Neurophagic Shoulderplate - Note the different name. The Vitaphagic version will still be craftable, but its schematic will no longer drop in the world. The Neurophagic Shoulderplate will have a special that's more appropriate for tanks. These changes will arrive in a patch sometime in January, but not Jan 13.
~Archivos LA-5S Smart Cloth Phagesash - Note the different name. The Smart Cloth Phagemantle will still be craftable, but its schematic will no longer drop in the world. The Phagesash will have a special that's more appropriate for Healers. These changes will arrive in a patch sometime in January, but not Jan 13.

			Out of curiosity, why is it standard practice to deprecate an item and add an entire new one as opposed to correcting the special tied to the original? Pouring through the item database with the galaxy library addon, you guys have a ridiculous number of deprecated items. That bloat has to be annoying to deal with.

also id like to note that there are more schematics then just the couple you listed here that need their specials adjusted  the heavy gloves pattern is one of them.
 
ALSO how will this affect getting the special extra recipe in the tech tree from collecting the dropped GA shoulder recipe, Im refering to the Archivos AS-4 CS neurophagic shield in the armorer tech tree. If those patterns no longer drop how will people be able to finish the tech tree square to get the extra recipe.
 
Attached is a link to an image hosting site of a screenshot i took so you know exactly what im referring too.

also look closely at the text in the square and see if you can pick out the 1 thing that is not like the other, Ill give you a hint! It belongs in the technologist tech tree not the armorer one	
----
			and upon asking other tradeskillers it seems they are missing their own versions of the piece of gear that they should be able to craft from collecting all the recipes....... whats up with that?	
----
			This is my first forum post.  I'm a big fan of the game and very patient, but yeah what about dem heavy gloves?

Why leave in messed up to the point of worthless items and make the players go back to hunting for more patterns instead of just fixing the original screw up?
Seems weird to punish the players for your own mistakes

If you have one of the old recipes with mismatched specials, there will be a solution for you.
For Exile, see Brigade Researcher Seagarden, and Dominion can visit Research Commissioner Tyranea.
You will be able to buy the new recipe (with the proper special) from them for 10c.
Everyone else will have to obtain it the old-fashioned way: tearing through the Genetic Archives.

			and im still curious if your solution will make it so that armorers will be able to unlock the energy shield schematic by learning the new recipes or if it will stay attached to learning the old recipes.

This did not happen, well, with armorsmith it did not
----
			It looked like they just changed the recipe, didn't actually give us new ones to buy.  Though not great changes	
----
			
So, still can't heal myself and crit, as the 'Archivos' HA-5G Neurophagic Gloves would have you believe. This is still a HEALER special.
 
The new 'Archivos' HA-5S Neurophagic Shoulderplate's special. Another "on taking a critical hit"? Give me a break. Do better than this.
 
The fact that I now have a worthless pattern and we did not see a pattern drop all week in 2 GA runs is very, very, very disappointing.
 
But hey, at least I can buy various rune fragments from the Renown vendor, that cost gold, but I spend renown? 	
----
			dont forget all the excess other class runes that stack and pile up because you cant CX them or trade them	
----
			can we please get some information about where we can get our replacement patterns?
