    INTRODUCTION TO CRAFTING AND THE ELDRITCH RITUALS
    ================================================== ===================

    Following is a guide and a compilation of recipes and information for the new "Crafting" system
    I am not claiming ownership or creation of any of their information but am just providing a compiling service

    INTRODUCTION

    If you want the full introduction to the system please visit this link Turbine - "An Official Beginners Guide to The Eldritch Device"..I originally had it reposted here, but it clutters this posting.

    Firstly there are Two types of Eldritch Device. The first is the Stone of Change found near the marketplace bank in Stormreach.
    The Second are the Raid Loot Crafting Altars, including the Altar of Fecundity under Meridia, the Altar of Invasion in the first part of the Shroud Raid, The Altar of Subjugation in the thrd part of the raid and the Altar of Devasation in the fith part (and end) of the Raid.

    The Sonte of Change - can be used to convert some items (eg 10 Flawed Siberys shards to Imperfect Siberys Shards) and in "Rituals" such as the Adamintine Ritual to improve the Hardness and Durability of items and weapons. Recipes for the stone of change can be found several paragraphs down.

    Raid Loot Crafting Altars - "There are several steps to creating your own loot and upgrading that item, so let’s see how it works."
    Everything starts with ingrdients. Find basic (Tier 1) ingredients and using the recipes below, upgrade them to Tier 2 igredients and then use them to make or upgrade a Green Steel Item. Recipes are not physical items you find in the game, they’re simply known combinations of ingredients that successfully produce another item or ingredient.

    The Green Steel Item upgrade is part of the new raid loot mechanism so you need to be doing the Shroud Raid for many of the ingredients particularly after the manufacture of . ie. you find ingredients, make your green steel item, then upgrade the item (up to 3 times ?) to become more powerful.

    There are several posts at the top of this thread that contain important information and I have linked to them as follows..or just scroll down the first few posts. You can also try the Wiki which (say that 5 times fast) contains a lot of this information in a manner/layout not possible in the forums.

    STONE OF CHANGE

    There is a "Stone of Change" (The Marketplace, Near the Bank) that can upgrade existing items (Ie not part of the green steel "Raid" loot)

    Currently you can do several things to items on the stones of change as follows:

    Binding/Attuning Ritual I:
    Benefit: Binds / Attunes items so they no longer take permanent damage and can have rituals (Like the Adamantine Ritual placed on them) but it can no longer be traded.
    ** There is currently a bug where ML0 items require 400 Shards to Bind/Attune (400 = Lvl 20 item)
    Materials: item requires (minimum level of item ^ 2) Khyber Dragonshard Fragments eg Level 12 item need 144 Khyber Dragonshard Fragments**

    Adamantine Ritual I:
    Benefit: This item has been tempered by a Stone of Change using the Adamantine Ritual. It has +5 Hardness and +10 Durability.
    Further Adamantine Rituals will increase this item's Durability. (But require greater amounts of Adamantine Ore and Soul Gems)
    Materials:
    10 Adamantine Ore, 10 Soul Gem: Essence of Earth, 1 Attuned Equippable Item (Items bound like raid items still need the binding/Attune Ritual before upgrading here.

    Adamantine Ritual II:
    Benefit: This item has been tempered by a Stone of Change using the Adamantine Ritual. +5 to Durability.
    Further Adamantine Rituals will increase this item's Durability. (But require greater amounts of Adamantine Ore and Soul Gems).
    Materials:
    15 Adamantine Ore, 20 Soul Gem: Essence of Earth, 1 Attuned Equippable Item (Items bound like raid items still need the binding/Attune Ritual before upgrading here.

    Materials: Requires: Your armor, 5 Vials of Pure Water, and 15 Strings of Prayer Beads.

    Alchemical Shield Eldritch Ritual
    Benefit: Grants your shield a +1 alchemical bonus to AC.
    Materials: Your shield, 6 Silver Flame Hymnals, and 2 Tomes: Prophecies of Khyber.

    Materials: Your weapon, 3 Luminescent Dusts, and 9 Fragrant Drowshood mushrooms.

    Force Critical Ritual

    **Small Khyber Shards - you need these for the first Adamantine Ritual - Earth Elemental (CR 7): Essence of Earth

    "It is suspected that once the scholars fully understand the powers of the device, we’ll even be able to change effects on existing items as well as shatter shards into fragments, but these are dangerous powers which must be studied further, before we can attempt such deeds."
