Single Element Weapons Not Combining Properly

[Temporary]

Previously when using weapons with a single base elemental damage (Amprex, Synapse, Ignis. Lanka, Phage, Mutalist Quanta, Quanta, Torid etc.) the 1st elemental mod would combine with its base and then you could add another combo onto it afterwards. Currently you can no longer do this anymore without adding the same elemental mod as the base, I've checked through the last 10-15 updates and nothing has been said about changing this.

This example build for the Amprex should result in getting Corrosive and Blast damage combinations: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=301655321 but instead you get Radiation and Viral.

 

This is what you have to do now to get the correct combinations you want: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=301655162 forcing us to waste a slot.

 

Not a massive bug but I'm hoping to get it fixed when you guys have time, hope I put this in the correct section.

It's always been this way.

Then why have all my combinations changed? Wouldn't have posted it if it hadn't changed...

The mods are always prioritized over the gun's base element. This is how it has always been. If you want corrosive + blast, put the mods in this order: fire, cold, poison.

The base element of the weapon occupies what would be the 9th mod card slot.  Its been this way as long as the mod card system has been in place.

Phage is viral btw, so you can't change or combine it anyway.
