Epic Antique Greataxe question

[Robai]

By my own stupidity I've made Epic Antique Greataxe and upgraded it (was too excited by Scroll drop and forgot about Righteousness).

Ok, now the question is how bad it is.

1) One thing is obvious:
30 Epic Dungeon tokens are completely wasted for Augment Crystal of Heaven's Light since after U11 EAG will have Righteousness on it, i.e. provide good dmg.

2) Is 20 Epic Dungeon tokens wasted on WIS +6?
I.e. will this upgrade stay after U11 ?

3) Is 3 Luminescent Dusts + 9 Fragrant Drowshood mushrooms wasted too?
I.e. will this upgrade stay after U11 ?

4) Is everything (Shard, Seal, Scroll, Epic Dungeon tokens, etc.) wasted?
Maybe only after U11 created Epic Antique Greataxes will have better version?

5) This costs 3 Epic Dungeon tokens:
The items can be placed into a Stone of Change, along with three Epic Dungeon Tokens, to clear the Epic Augment Crystal slot.
Will this clear up all slots or just one, with specific Catalyst?
Will it be the way to upgrade old version to new version? Do any upgrades stay after this?

It should stay just as it is, if you want it that way.



If you do put it in the altar with 3 tokens, it will reset to a blank U11 version (and wipe your augments, alchemical ritual, etc.).

Using the 3 Epic Dungeon Token upgrade ritual after u11 will give you a brand new, clean, u11 version of the eAG.

Both slots will be cleared, and the Stone of Change ritual will also be cleared.

[BurningDownTheHouse]

Unfortunately yes, all is wasted.
Once you clear the item with 3 epic dungeon tokens, you will receive a brand new item, not even bound and attuned. You will need to do all from scratch.

EDIT: Some people beat me to it

Ok, got it, really bad news

Thanks.

[jakeelala]

the news isn't that bad, the new axe is way better.

[Robai]

the news isn't that bad, the new axe is way better.

Yes, agreed, about +50% dmg is indeed very good (even if it cost me 53 tokens).
And the bad news is just for me, i.e. that I did screw it up (should have waited for U11)

BTW, is it worth to add Crystal dmg there? Will that make weapon non eatable by oozes or rusties?
What would you suggest to add there instead of Good dmg?

No, not as far as I know. If it works like the other material types, it would only add 'Crystal' to the types of damage it can bypass. The augment in the trade box doesn't say it includes any "Everbright" properties, so I doubt it does. Crystal DR breaking is only useful for a single boss in the game, one that's fought most often on casual.

Most DPS experts are recommending the +7 augment.

Thank you, Sarisa.
It's a good thing that I didn't risk to waste my raid tokens

I have one more question:
How does Crystal of Extreme Power work?

1) Does it add +7 Enhancement Bonus and only the maximum Enhancement bonus counts?
For example on the EAG you see both:
+6 Enhancement Bonus and +7 Enhancement Bonus?

2) Does +7 Enhancement Bonus replaces previous Enhancement bonus?
For example on the EAG you'll see only +7 Enhancement Bonus?

3) Does it upgrade Enhancement Bonus by +1?

4) How about ESoS?
What happens to +10 Enhancement Bonus?
Is Crystal of Extreme Power completely useless for this weapon?

+7 yes for AGA

edit: the augment changes it from a +6 to a plus +7
