Default Magician Research Help

Ok so ive been trying to research on my now 37 Mage for Weeks. Weeks. Now all that I have read ''Elemental Grimoire'' Is what Mage's use to Research. I have practiced Reserach to level 90 currently. Weeell, I cannot get a simple Recipe to combine. Not one, Farmed materials up to about Lvl34 spells and still cannot combine the first spell of the ''chain'' of Mage pet spells.

Im finally posting on here to see if maybe Ive been reading the information wrong all along? Or maybe my Mage's research is all bugged out?

Attempting to combine I get the error message that ''These items will not combine in container''. Moved items around, tried all kinds of lay out in the Grimoires Combine box. Currently using Project1999 Game Companion for component list etc and I just cannot get a spell to combine So Pleeease mighty Forum help meee [You must be logged in to view images.

Can you list the components and spells you are going for here? I'll try and help. I had 200+ research on my magician, I might be able to help you out.

Cheers!

Alrighty well from the first, 16 spells Earth and Water

"Minor Summoning: Earth" - Words of Tyranny, Summon Elemental: Earth, Small Brick of Ore

"Minor Summoning: Water" - Words of Tyranny, Summon Elemental: Water, Shark Skin

So as Ive been reading it , Im making the Minor Summoning so I can continue down the line for making the stronger pet spells. And for these first ones its those 3 components combined in Elemental Grimoire.

That is how i've been making my attempts and for the life of me cannot get them to combine. I have a feeling im Derping some small thing but sigh I cannot figure it out. =/

Have you tried to do a Practice Combine to see if that works? If you can combine the 2 runes, the Grimore is ar least verified to be working...if not, you have a bug.

Alright, no luck with Practice Research either. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Attempted to creat Practice Runes Azla and Bezla with the same message ''You cannot combine these items in this container type!'' ...so..where do I go from here ??

That Message btw is the one I get during Research attempt as well.

Jeez man...that is very odd. Have you tried another Grimore just to see if it's the book. I am not a coder, so I don't know if each item has a unique feature that would make it behave differantly, but a practice combine should work. I would petition dev's to at least make them aware that a practice combine will not work. Maybe your toon has a bug about research capability? On the other hand you have 90 points of skill in research so did you get that doing combines before or thru training? 90 is certainly high enough for what you are trying to do. The key seems to be "in that container"...thats why I am thinking the Grimore is the problem...they are so cheap, try another one?
