Can't masterwork a GA gear I just got?!

So just got a ring with a good GA for my build and wanted to masterwork it just to be denied by the game…

Yes, it was literally picked and used by the same character…

I happened to reroll one non-GA affix of item, as a I did with many other masterkworked items.

So what’s the issue that Blizzard invented now?

Edit: Oh it has an upgradable aspect to my Codex, is that it?!

You have to temper it before MW. Both rolls for ancestral gear. Thats probably it.

That might actually be it, I haven’t tempered and wasn’t playing for like a week. Let me try it. Thanks

you have to fully temper legendaries - as in both categories - before you can masterwork.

Yep, got it now. I used to do it so automatically that I didn’t even realize it was really a requirement. Now that I have 10+ resetting scrolls I just didn’t bother tempering before as I want to check the difference in affixes between items at 4* masterwoking
