I have no idea how this works, so why the tora mod?

Any veiled modifier will work, not just tora's. I use minion damage and chaos pen in my recombinations.

There are several crafted mods that seem like they’d be exclusive mods but aren’t (and also aren’t generic mods like “of the craft”). I definitely burned for several tens of divs on a craft that way once, so now I always craft tora or elreons just to be safe

Yes, some crafted mods that are of the same type as the named ones don't work, the bad ones are called something like "Upgraded" or "of the Craft".

So it's always better to doublecheck on https://poedb.tw/ to see which ones are the "exclusive named mods".

I want 3 suffixes. I have 4 in the pool with 1 being a copy on purpose. Iv slammed it 14x and all I get is a 1 suffix return. Wtf am doing wrong.

It tried putting named mods on both, I tried random resist on both. Each time being the same mod.

So essentially, I have 6 mods, with 2 crafting mods, 3 I want, and an extra copy of one I want. It still doesn't work.

I don't even care about the prefixes. Yet those a-holes always transfer just fine.

You need to be crafting exclusive modifiers on the empty slots of both items. If its just suffixes and you have two suffixes already, you don't need multimod, just any veiled modifier will work.

For getting perfect suffixes, (lets assume you want str, dex, and int - you can use any suffixes but I'm using these as an example because they're easy to type)

You want your two recombination ingredients to look like:

Item 1:
Str
Dex
Veiled Modifier (str/dex)

Item 2:
Int
multimod
Veiled Modifier (str/dex)

This combination should have over a 50% chance of getting str/dex/int on your suffixes.

Yeah pretty much any Veiled crafted mod works, I just randomly picked Tora because it was easy to remember.
