"Known to Break or Bug Game When Linked"

I've removed the note that this item is "known to break or bug game when linked" because I cannot replicate the issue: no crashes when using the chat code or linking the actual item; works the same as anything else in the game. I've asked 69.207.164.94 (talk • contribs • logs • block log) to describe or document the issue on this page, in case it's something that might be hard to reproduce. – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 16:46, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Per a note left on a user's talk page, I also tried linking the item and using the chat code in /guild chat. Also without incident. I've seen people link it in /map chat. I've also tried without success to find reports in the official forums and reddit. Lacking any evidence that this is a problem with the game, rather than with the executable on a few computers, I think it's reasonable to conclude that there's no bug. Since a contributor or two feel strongly that there is a bug, I'm willing to take another look whenever they are able to produce the steps required to replicate the issue. – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 23:31, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

If it's something specific to guild missions, that might be worth checking out. I can test that tomorrow; Tuesday is when my guild does missions.

Perhaps there's a difference between linking it via chat code, and linking it via the actual item? Vili 点 00:02, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Guild missions can't have anything to do with a supposed chat link bug, there's no way the systems can interact that way. It's possible that linking a modified version of Arc (with sigil or skin added) could cause an issue, but it's unlikely, unless it's a very specific sigil/skin combination that doesn't work on any other weapon. —Dr Ishmael 00:40, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Well, I linked Arc during today's Guild Rush with no effect. So unless there's more information about the bug, I'm going to say it's something particular to the affected users' computers. Vili 点 01:39, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
