I just purchased the plans for this sword in the camp during Chapter 2 but it seems to be bugged. It seems as if whenever I try to craft it I instead receive a Robust Short Sword which is a FAR weaker weapon.

Anyone else having this issue?

Yup I am having this prob as well... it is quite unfortunate. Thankfully moments after i attempted to craft it and was met with failure I found a sword that was just as good.

Yeah, this pattern doesn't seem to work.

I made a topic about this earlier, the blueprint is broken. Just wait till you have to find the standard of the Dun Banner, you get a really really good steel sword out of that.

Yeh thought it was me doing something wrong lol.

Just ran into this myself... bummer. Put it on the patch list CDP.
