[Goldeneye]

Red Augment Crystal

* 20 Epic Dungeon Tokens

o Adds one of these damage types to your weapon

• + Adamantine
• + Silver
• + Cold Iron - currently broken, Misty gives Silver Crystal instead for this choice
• + Byeshk
• + Crystal (new type, Riedran Crystal, weapons that will be useful against psionic types like the Quori)

* 30 Epic Dungeon Tokens

o Adds one of these damage types to your weapon

• + Good
• + Evil
• + Lawful
• + Chaotic

* 15 Epic Raid Tokens

• o +7 Enhancement Bonus

What happens when you add +7 Enhancement bonus to an eSoS? (Since it's already a +10)

[Oolung]

I'd guess that since both are enhancement bonuses that they wouldn't stack.

[Comfortably]

Adding good seems to be the best way to go.

They do not stack. It stays +10.

That question was not asked.

[valorik]

absolutely nothing.

Correct. However, seeing as two types of the same bonus don't stack like that, I was offering what I feel is the best option for the Red slot.

You would have a +7 Enhancement bonus to either: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma

No.

The +7 is NOT for a Stat (STR, CON, etc.) in a Red slot.

[Asketes]

imagine if it become +17!!!!

No.

I'm not trying it on mine, so I'll take your word on it.

[Goldeneye]

Ha ha. Oh well.
I was assuming that +7, brought the +6 epic to +7... so I was hoping eSoS would go to +11.

Good seems to be the way to go?... unless your paladin go silver.

[Matuse]

Depending on what you are using the eSoS for, this will affect your decision of how to slot it.

Unless you're a paladin, you aren't breaking boss DR with it (in which case you'd want Cold Iron to smack out epic reavers, renders, flensers and Lailat), so adding a metal property really doesn't do much good.

That leaves alignment. Maybe you feel you need your eSoS to bypass trash devils...but a Lightning II Greataxe will do that, and hit about as hard. Or just vorpal them. No DR really needed.

So, how about Law? Tharaak hounds heavily populate VoN2, DQ1. Few other epic monsters have any DR to speak of (at least, that the eSoS has a chance of breaking...you're not turning it blunt for Raiyum or Clay Golems).

DDO wiki says:

Currently, even after these modifications are done, you can clear up your slot(s) by spending 3 Dungeon Tokens to do it again.

Is this old info? Can you still change the property in an augment slot??

yes

[Goldeneye]

Which question is your yes referring to?

1. Is this old info?
2. Can you still change the property in an augment slot??

[Ssmooth]

It nerfs your nerfed +10 ESOS to +7 ESOS It's called Improved Nerf.

Both

Ok: So the info itself is old, but not outdated. Meaning that players are still able to use dungeon tokens to re-set the augment crystal properties in their epic items?
