Ascension Cores displayed incorrectly

Fix status

0.12.1 corrects Ascension Core display inside the Mystic Forge crafting menu.

What to do now

Patch, reopen the forge and verify the core type and weapon upgrade preview before spending it.

Close Dragonwilds and update the Steam client.
If the world is dedicated, stop, back up and update the server too.
Confirm the complete client and server version numbers match.
Reload the affected area or interface and retest the exact trigger once.

If the symptom still appears

Do not assume the same cause survived the patch. Record the current version, world type, host/client role, location and exact action that reproduces “ascension cores displayed incorrectly”. A new report with those details is more useful than applying an old workaround or deleting a save.
