Seem's the power loss is still around.I upgraded my sword to a champ,unlocked the 3rd gem slot,placed gem,smithed it 2 time's,all's good,went about my business waiting on cooldown.Decided to log out and refresh,wrote down the number's out of curiosity ( 1,739,426),and did so.
When i got back in,lo and behold,i finally got hit with it for almost 69k in power,my new total power was 1,671,145,a loss of 68,281k in power,which when your grinding your butt off hurt's.I thought this was patched,but i think they missed this one.
