Trans Hammer question

[Shaygar]

I'm wondering how people are using trans hammers.

Ive relatively recently returned to the game and it's new to me. Does crafting epics follow the same rules as legendaries? If so, I can see trans hammers being useful in getting a bom of choice at less expense. If not, I'm left rather bemused. I have 8 of the things ?.

Any insight would be welcome.

Epics uses the pure chance calculation, as far as I know from what I've read... so, yes, you could craft Epics to save mats and then upgrade them, but pythia cannot help predict the outcome.

Have seen only potential increase of bonus on upgrading, Deadly Throw damage boost for Bracers for example... don't know if everyone's been lucky or it's "as intended". Will advice if I see one going down...

Just gave it a whirl on three epic DT Combat bracers. First was 86, Trans'ed to 90. Second and third were 91 and 92, and were left unchanged. The one that got boosted was on a 77.
