Scribe Right-Hand Magnifying Glass not replacing Virtuoso Inking Set anymore?

Support Bug Report
1

I logged on to my scribe to do my weekly orders and check patron orders, and all of a sudden I couldn’t craft “Shadow Ink” - said I was missing a Virtuoso Inking Set, lol.

The TWW inscription accessory that used to replace / worked in place of the classic Virtuoso Inking Set is no longer acting as a replacement, causing scribes to need one at least in their inventory now in order to craft TWW inks all of a sudden.

I don’t think we’re meant to carry around an old level 1 inscription accessory in order to craft TWW inks in TWW…

Additional note: I noticed this was previously a bug with reports back on Sept 2 and 3, but it appears to have returned with today’s patch, 11.0.5. I made inks yesterday without having a Virtuoso Inking Set.

This seems to be a recurring bug. I’ve been completing inscription crafts and work orders on my scribe without one for weeks, as recently as earlier today. Suddenly I log in tonight and can’t craft with the missing virtuoso inking set being the reason shown.

Nothing has changed recently with regards to my character’s equipped profession tools or inventory. There was not a virtuoso inking set in my bank or warband bank. I did upgrade my quill to a Silver Tongue’s Quill a few days ago but have crafted since them. Maybe none of the things I crafted required the inking set?
