I have the same problem with "Charged Hypercloth Force Expert's Braces"

I have the same problem with "Charged Hypercloth Force Expert's Braces". They appear purple in-game. They appear blue with text in the opening menu.

I can also confirm that I have the same issue.

I can also confirm that I have the same issue.

It may be that there are typos in some of the Crew Skill Missions, but the bug reported here doesn't reflect typos being the issue. For instance, the Grade 1 Archaeology mission 'Slaves of Begeren' should yield Fibrous Nylite Solution and says that it does in the mission description. Instead, it yields Thermoionic Gel Suspension. This is the root of the bug. The Grade 2 Archaeology mission 'Pilgrimage' should yield Thermoionic Gel Suspension and says that it does in the mission description. It does yield Thermoionic Gel Suspension, which is correct. So, the issue is that the Grade 1 Archaeology mission 'Slaves of Begeren' is yielding an incorrect crafting material, Thermoionic Gel Suspension instead of Fibrous Nylite Solution. If there is a typo in one of the Bioanalysis Medical Equipment missions then I would report it as a separate bug. The effects and area of gameplay might be similar, but the causing factor would be different - a typo instead of an actual incorrect yield. I would recommend reporting this bug in a separate thread if it hasn't already been done so.

I have also observed this issue and confirm its existence. Some found purple objects have no stats, even though their rating is expectantly higher than their blue counterpart, making them effectively useless compared to their blue counterpart.

Further testing to help provide a better understanding of the bug: Archaeology skill: 141 Crew mission: Slaves of Begeren (Grade 1 Archaeology) Crew member: Khem Val Expected material return: Fibrous Nylite Solution (as described in the mission description) Observed material return: Thermoionic Gel Suspension Crew mission: Pilgrimage (Grade 2 Archaeology) Crew member: 2V-R8 Expected material return: Thermoionic Gel Suspension (as described in the mission description) Observed material return: Thermoionic Gel Suspension

Patch: 4.0a Archaeology skill: 139 Crew mission: Slaves of Begeren (Grade 1 Archaeology) Crew member: 2V-R8 Expected material return: Fibrous Nylite Solution (as described in the mission description) Observed material return: Thermoionic Gel Suspension I've sent 2V-R8 on the Grade 1 Archaeology Crew Skill Mission 'Slaves of Begeren' twice. Each time, 2V-R8 returned with a number of Thermoionic Gel Suspension. 'Slaves of Begeren' is supposed to give a number of Fibrous Nylite Solution. I have not been able to obtain Fibrous Nylite Solution through the Archaeology Crew Skill Mission 'Slaves of Begeren'.
