You carefully inspect your glaes augmented chain.

Your careful inspection of some thick glaes augmented chain allows you to conclude that it is chain armor that covers the torso, arms, and legs.

You determine that you could wear the chain around your chest.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of glaes.



Found this off a vaespilion in the rift..

an opal and bloodjewel medallion
Enchancive
The magical strength of this item is strong. It could probably handle the imbedding of an entirely new spell, if handled with care.
The medallion resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus of 5 to Shield Use Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 15 times.
It provides a bonus of 5 to Perception Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 10 times.
The medallion looks to have a huge number of charges remaining.

Buddy and I hunt insanly above our level and always together. We hunt until we can't hold any more boxes (I'm doing LockMastery). We've been finding things left and right. Nothing crazy yet, but still very cool.

On a side note, Who else thinks they need to add a new beam to the AI crystal that would just be a "Misc" beam... If there's something other than what it lists (+to stats or skills etc) it would pop that up so we can know to get it sung to?

Renian
05-27-2008, 03:51 PM
How long until they nerf it?

I posted a quote in the initial thread announcing the loot system change by Warden stating that he was going to nerf the drops of low level mobs ASAP, as their retardedly high-end drops are a bug. He's also going to look into the capped people complaining about shit drops, and hopefully buff that.

Danical
05-27-2008, 04:31 PM
I think a lot of the people experiencing "shit drops" aren't uphunting (because they can't as they're capped) and aren't group-coontributing-hunting.

As is probably the case with Rheieiiisisiisia. Just a guess.

If that's the case, they won't experience anything different, at all.

05-27-2008, 05:05 PM
Imbeddible enhancives = good shit.

I would never imbed an enhancive. All you're doing is increasing the chances of it crumbling prematurely. With the Adv Guild, you can keep enhancives permanently if you're not an idiot, but ya might accidentally use the last charge of a spell and crumble your otherwise awesome item.

Deathravin
05-27-2008, 06:06 PM
Problem is that there needs to be a bit more of a curve. It's too easy to uphunt at low levels and hard at high levels.

Richest people will be the level 12 THW haste wizard hunting level 25 stuff. That doesn't make much sense.

Danical
05-27-2008, 06:16 PM
Not really; The treasure class goes up.

You might be able to up the TC a lot more at lower levels but the TC might not be higher than a small boost to higher level hunting grounds.

Just found this: A fel-handled mithril halberd. +5 halberd, BUT:

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the mithril halberd in your hand...


The halberd resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus of 12 to Dexterity.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 47 times.
It provides a bonus of 5 to Harness Power Ranks.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 30 times.
The halberd looks to have more than your average giantman could count charges remaining.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, this seems good for a pole warmage. +6 bolt AS plz kthx.

That's crazy... wow ... 12 dex is a ton. I was thinking warrior mage too, but really the 12 dex helps w/ swinging speed of the polearm, and if it's 5 ranks of HP, that's great for a square in CoL.

In all my years of GS, this is by far the best item I've ever found!

a serrated black ora-tipped whip-blade

After a careful inspection you determine that a serrated black ora-tipped whip-blade requires skill in edged weapons to use effectively.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of black ora.

You carefully examine the black ora whip-blade and determine that the weight is about 3 pounds.

Careful examination indicates the black ora whip-blade has a base strength of 45 and a base durability of 130. You also determine the current integrity of the black ora whip-blade to be at 100.0%.

WINAR!!

You remove a villswood quarter staff from in your black velvet cloak.

The first thing that strikes you about the staff is the weight, which is about 5 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 58,000 silvers.

You sense a faint aura of magic around the quarter staff. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the staff is as some type of weapon. It also appears to have a temporary modification of some kind.

It has a bonus of +18 from a normal staff, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in twohanded weapons to use effectively. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.
You think that you could probably find out something more about the staff if you tried.


The harmonics generated tell you that the staff inflicts more fearsome wounds when it strikes.

The staff resonates with your voice, revealing some details of its temporary enhancement:
The staff's enhancement will degrade when it scores a successful strike.
It should be able to withstand an incredible amount of uses before its enhancement has completely degraded away.
When it's enhancement has degraded away, the item will lose its special ability.

Cudgels suck as weapons right? Still makes for a badass defensive weapon for a caster. Considering how few days it's been and things like this are popping up, I can't wait till something of this quality gets aligned nicely (like if it were a shield or a worn item)

Cudgels are ok. Here's some stuff from the DF table.

Cudgel .350 .275 .200 .225 .150
Morning Star .425 .325 .275 .300 .225

It's not a huge opportunity cost DF-wise.

Anyway, I found it in a Temple Nelemar box. That probably wasn't too hard to figure out, given the fact that I'm capped, and on Teras, lol.

What're the properties of black ora again (we just got websense at work so I can't go to Krakii... well I can, but I'd eat into my "two hours of quota time" ... rofl, two hours a day of goofing off on sites, and the pc isn't even blocked)

Renian
05-29-2008, 11:29 AM
Hmm, looks like -spiked is a long description, as in my cloak it reads: an onyx-handled black ora cudgel. Upon inspection, it's made out of black ora too.

Anyway, from Krakii:

Black ora weapons are permanently cursed, give a bonus to mana point regeneration and wisdom, and give a penalty to spirit regeneration.

The permanent cursing means that upon holding the weapon (retrieving it from a scabbard, another player, etc) the user has just a few seconds to deal with the weapon before the shadows surrounding it wrap around their hand and need to have the curse neutralized before STOWing, DROPping or GIVEing the weapon. The curse may be neutralized by pouring a dose of a pure potion or other potion (usually from special events) that contain the spell Neutralize Curse (309) or Remove Curse (315), or by having Neutralize Curse or Remove Curse cast on them in some way.

Black ora weapons come in two varieties, major and minor. Minor weapons are more readily available and have all the features as described. Major black ora weapons have all the same features but additionally can be attended once per day to teleport the user to a preset location. Major weapons are distributed with a +30 or above bonus, while minor weapons are normally distributed with a +20 or +25 bonus.
Flares

Black ora has special flares, including some that seem to use the Mana Disruption (702) crit table.
Regular zests

>raise my swo
As you raise your twohanded sword, the shadows swirl upward and race off of it and ascend high above, darkening the room. After a moment, they recede and return to the sword which flickers with pulses of greenish-black essence.

>wave my swo
As you wave the twohanded sword in the air, the shadows swirl off the twohanded sword obscuring you from view momentarily. A sibilant hiss is heard from within the gloom.

ATTEND - major black ora only.
Idle messaging

The idle messaging is based on the diety that one is ATTUNEd to. The following is a (fairly?) comprehensive list of first-person view of the messaging for an un-attuned character.

Your twohanded sword suddenly pulses, causing the area to be overcome with shadows. After a brief duration, the shadows begin to recede to the light and your vision returns.

The twohanded sword pulses in your hand, as if seeking something.

The shadows swirl around your twohanded sword.

The shadows surrounding your twohanded sword swirl around and a low murmuring can be faintly heard from within the gloom.

Bolts of greenish-black lightning spark from the shadow twisting around your twohanded sword.

For no apparent reason, you dive forward and hit the ground, covering the twohanded sword with your body.

The shadows surrounding your twohanded sword writhe and twist.

The shadows surrounding your hand begins darken and contricts savagely!
Your hand swells and turns purple, then explodes in a shower of blood!
... 20 points of damage!
Bones from several fingers driven through your skin.
You are stunned for 1 round!

The twohanded sword in your hand pulses as waves of evil emanate from it.
Roundtime 30 sec.

Your twohanded sword whispers softly to you in an unknown tongue and you feel a strong tug from deep within your chest.

A tendril of shadow from your twohanded sword floats to the ground, and then goes darting around the floor, with a trail of lurid greenish-black smoke behind it.

A faint swirl of green haze rises off your twohanded sword in sinuous curls bearing a lingering scent of decay.

The shadow twisting around your twohanded sword extends forth a bit and sniffs around.

Bolts of greenish-black lightning spark from the shadow twisting around your twohanded sword.

The shadows surrounding your twohanded sword pulse swirl up and divide. The twin columns of shadow dart to and fro, then twist around each other before coming to wrap around the sword.

You feel your twohanded sword pull at your hand, as if trying to escape.

A wave of nausea washes over you as your battlesword attempts to writhe free of your grasp.




My weapon is probably minor black ora.

EDIT: Without the zests.

a turquoise studded silver torc

This is a small item, under a pound. In your best estimation, it's worth about 500,000 silvers. You can also tell that there is some type of metal in the structure of the studded silver torc.


You sense a faint aura of magic around the studded silver torc. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the torc is to cast a spell or perform some magical purpose. Also, it seems to have some sort of enhancive properties.

From the rapid vibrations of the studded silver torc, you determine it has no spell within it now, but could be imbedded with one, in the proper hands.
The torc resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus to Arcane Symbols Ranks.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 28 times.
You think that you could probably find out something more about the torc's enhancive properties if you tried.

The magical strength of this item is strong. It could probably handle the imbedding of an entirely new spell, if handled with care.
The torc resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:

Found this on a csetairi earlier:

A faenor-tipped mithril backsword

The first thing that strikes you about the backsword is the weight, which is about 4 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 350,000 silvers. You can also tell that there is some type of metal in the structure of the mithril backsword.

It has a bonus of +5 from a normal backsword, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in edged weapons to use effectively. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.

The harmonics generated tell you that the backsword does extra damage when it strikes.

The backsword resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus of 8 to Mental Mana Control Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 22 times.
The backsword looks to have a huge number of charges remaining.

The backsword resonates with your voice, revealing some details of its temporary enhancement:
The backsword's enhancement will degrade when it scores a successful strike.
It should be able to withstand an incredible amount of uses before its enhancement has completely degraded away.
When it's enhancement has degraded away, the item will lose its special ability.

Need to get it assessed still. It's a sword for a baby Savant. Awwww.

I've also found some 4x elegant velvet robes in a box, a swcw invar awl-pike, a crit-weighted invar crowbill I need to have assessed, an imflass longsword, an ora rapier, a vultite morning star, and a couple of other things of no particular interest. This is fun.

You remove a sigil-etched vultite warblade from in your vaalin-trimmed cloak.

>get shield
You remove an ornate faewood shield from in your vaalin-trimmed cloak.

I found both of these today -- the shield in a box, and the warblade on a creature.

Warblade is merely 4x with earth flares.

Even though faewood is +20, this shield is 5x. No other properties. Still, above a 4x item generated isn't bad.

I also found another enhancive jewelry, but it's only +1 to agility.

an old golvern shield
5x
8lbs

a tear-cut star sapphire crown
The crown resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus of 4 to Ranged Weapons Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 10 times.
It provides a bonus of 2 to Max Health.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 2 times.
The crown looks to have more than your average giantman could count charges remaining.
The first thing that strikes you about the crown is the weight, which is about 2 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 73,000 silvers.

I'm on the fence about selling the shield. I lug around my old rolaren targes everywhere and this is a fine replacement if I ever lose one of them. The crown is the first enchancer I've ever bothered using. Took a few hunts out and still haven't burned a point off to see what the recharge costs.

a birch-handled mithril-spiked maul

Taken from an Ithzir seer.

Careful examination indicates the mithril-spiked maul has a base strength of 90 and a base durability of 220.

After a careful inspection you determine that a birch-handled mithril-spiked maul requires skill in twohanded weapons to use effectively.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of mithril.

Weighs 7 lb.

It provides a bonus of 6 to Sorcerous Lore - Necromancy Bonus.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 21 times.
The maul looks to have a huge number of charges remaining.

It is for sale in the auctions folder.

The way things have been popping out of the treasure system I am convinced that there will be an increased demand for premium points, but something more along the lines of Renian's club as far as enhancives go will likely be more deserving.
