The occultist does not present the option to Imprint from Inventory. It only gives me the option to Imprint from Codex. I found an item in the wild with an aspect significantly higher than what can be stored in the Codex, but it didn’t have a symbol marking it as an upgrade. I have found a similar item before, but when I salvage it, it doesn’t store as an upgrade either. It just disappears. How do I transfer it?
Are you sure it’s an upgrade?
Necklaces are 1.5 times normal and 2-handers are 2x normal, so they may seem as upgrades but are not.
Though there are bugs reported with items not upgrading aspects, they do show the icon on the item before salvaging. The upgrade just goes wrong for some reason, usually when you do multiple upgrades at a time.
