Well if you had the copper claymore equipped for the 2nd post then it's simply because the game reports a required level of 6 to equip the copper claymore and you are only level 5. I have no idea how you were able to equip it so I can only assume that this is some kind of game bug allowing you to equip it before you should be able to. One you are 6 and meet the level requirement the game reports for that claymore then it should not be getting replaced by a lower dps item. It only replaces it now simply because the system does not think you can equip it so it's not a valid item until you are level 6.

I can confirm I was level 6 at the time

One of your other addons must have been preventing the guide viewer from being able to update properly because the bug reports you submitted both show the guide viewer believing you are level 5 at the time.
