    Armor Penetration Engraving

    all of a sudden this engraving disappeared where I cant engrave it on any weapon. I have the Atlantean Blade, why did it disappear. How can I get it back?

    Same for me. My list of melee weapon engravings recently rose above 100. It happened when I got some new Legendary gear that came with new engravings. When I'm at the blacksmith seeking to engrave a weapon, the scroll list of eligible engravings is truncated at 100. Anything at the bottom of that list falls off and becomes unavailable. At this point, any new engravings will push another existing one off the end of that list. So many engravings are useless, but Armor Penetration is one of the best. I'm really disappointed to lose it, as it's important to my play style.

    So I am not the only one who this happened to. So even if I start a whole game from scratch I would still lose it. They need to fix this issue. I wanted to engrave it onto a weapon but it is gone. I think we lost this engraving because of the Northern Travelers Set.

    Hello there kampking! Welcome to the forums!

    Please refrain from posting in old threads in future, and instead make a new one. Thanks!

    I'm sorry to see you encountered this issue. Please note that the game's life cycle concluded with Title Update 1.5.1. This means that remaining issues such as the one you reported may not be addressed.

    In this case, if you have reached 100/100 engravings, as Tosk406 has described above, the newer engravings will replace your oldest. Can you let me know which engravings you last received before you lost your armor penetration engraving? Were they related to the Northern Traveler's Set?

    Thanks!

    What? This is terrible! I was just planning on buying Helix credits to get some of the cool legendary sets and weapons. I'm glad I didn't! I guess I have to be careful even at the Oikos store.

    Hey there romant56!

    Have you also encountered this issue in your game? If so, can you let me know which engravings you last received before losing any engravings?

    Please note that if you haven't reached 100/100 engravings, you shouldn't lose any of your current engravings. We'd like to gather some more information so we can take a closer look at this issue in the meantime. Thanks!

    Thank you for taking the time to actively respond on these forums. It is much appreciated.

    I do not think I've encountered this, but I'm not sure; I never thought I would have to look for missing engravings and it scared me. I have completed everything in the game, so I have every single legendary engraving available in the main game and DLCs. I don't know how many that is. I also have a few random ones from the Oikos store that I've accumulated over the past year or so.

    I just checked and I definitely still have the armor penetration one.

    UNRELATED - delete if not allowed: I posted in the main AC forum about making Xbox Ezio Collection 4K in parity with the PS version. Just shamelessly plugging it here. I'm new to the AC series, love it, and want to buy all the old games, but am spoiled by newer graphic capabilities.

    Thanks for letting me know that! I'm glad to hear you don't seem to be missing any runes, particularly the armor penetration one.

    Do you happen to have the Northern Traveler's set in your game? I'm not sure this is the cause of the issue, but both Tosk406 and LeoRaptor1979 have reported that this happened after they acquired this set. I'd be interested to find out if this is indeed the case, so we can pass it on for further investigation.

    Don't worry, your additional comment about an Xbox Ezio Collection can stay I'm happy to hear that you're enthusiastic about this series. I would recommend keeping all discussion about it to the separate thread you've already made, though, rather than going off topic here. Thanks for sharing!
