Mineral II Greataxe

[MJNOR1]

Please help me in layman's language how I determine the recipe for the aforementioned Greataxe.

I have looked at Tihocan's planner but find nothing that indicates Mineral II.

Or is it indicated by another description in the planner?



Thanks.

mineral II is either Good-acid-acid/positive, or acid-good-acid/positive.
Which means:
Tier 1 - you choose either to apply holy or acid
Tier 2 - you choose to apply either acid burst or good burst, must NOT be the same foci as tier 1 (e.g. if you choose holy, you MUST put acid burst)

Tier 3 - You must imbue a shard with a positive shard, AND an acid shard before putting the 3rd shard in the weapon.

Good luck.

EACH TIER 3 SHARD MUST BE MADE SEPERATELY AND THEN IMBUDED TOGETHER. THIS WILL GIVE YOU A COMBINED SHARD, THIS IS THE SHARD THAT YOU ADD TO THE WEAPON.

Thanks.
Yes, it's written with its effects (http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~delallea/ddo/shroud/cgi-bin/shroud.cgi?item=item&weapon=greataxe&effects=mineral2_weap_&altar=3), so that ppl don't have to know what "mineral II" means. I realize it makes it harder for people who know what it is, though they should be able to find it... if you want a mineral II weapon but have no idea what it does, something is wrong ;)

[MJNOR1]

Here is my interpretation of the steps in the process:


1 - Accumulate the necessary ingredients and use Altar in Meridia to create Yellow Taper, Wondrous oil and Ore of Travail.

2 - Place Yellow Taper, Wondrous oil, Ore of Travail, Signet stone and Energy cell in Altar in Meridia to create Greensteel Greataxe.

After step two I am unclear on what to do, I understand that there are a certain quantity of the various ingredients required when using the Altars in the Shroud but what I do not understand is am I creating Shards to use in the Tier 3 Altar or is the Greataxe placed into the Altar at each part?

Be careful, step 2 is incorrect, you need to replace the energy cell with a large horn (rare drop in large ingredients), if you want to obtain a greataxe.
The regular, great and supreme shards drop in the Shroud. You first combine shards with ingredients to transfer "powers" into the shards, then you combine the shard to your greataxe to transfer these powers into your weapon.
My planner should tell you exactly what are the recipes at each step.

Thanks Tihocan for catching that! I did place the Splintered Horn in the Altar I just omitted it from the thread.

small ingredients are used in the first altar, and yes you upgrade your item at each altar.
mediums are used in part 5 altar, larges in part 5 altar. so you are upgrading your blanks three times. final upgrade, you will use two shards, combine them into one shard and then upgrade your item.
