    Default allow sentient jewels to eat items with augments

    allow sentient jewels to eat items with augments

    It many cases items drop with an augment in them already. It is not worth it to use jeweler tool kits to remove the augment. Jeweler tool kits are too hard to get to use like this.

    allow sentient jewels to eat items with augments, just give a confirmation window


    Or give us a cheaper tool kit that only destroys the augment

    Default 100% this

    I've got so much old gear that I augmented over the years and I will not spend the large cost of a jewelers toolkits to remove them all (guessing I'd need ~150). I'd be willing to spend 1/10th of what a jewelers toolkit costs in order to destroy the augments. SSG??

    it was created to prevent players from cheesing low-level named gear into level 28 via an augment, but created its own mess

    An augment destroyer for plat is an exceptional idea & solves the dev concerns while making players happy. Or just make it so players can take augments to special vendors to do it. So a weapons vendor will have tools to pry them out for you from weapons and jewelry vendors for jewelry etc (nice lore touch)

    ...or allow the augmented items to produce a bit more experience based on the augments ML.

    while i feel and understand where your coming from im afraid i have to say not signed on
    this one. two reasons really, the first that as a company i would have done the same thing
    here as ssg looking to make a bit of xtra revenue and second and even more important
    even tho it would be nice to just to empty alts and buy backs to go straight up to having 7
    filiwhatevers on my weapon of choice it also lowers the repeat playabiity of the said system
    which as far as im concerned is a bad thing.

    my initial thought was this is because of the ML and AML disparity these augments can create.

    Such as taking a ML 28 Augment and putting it in a ML 1 item.

    It would be nice to have maybe a couple "Are you sure?" type dialogs but I agree there has to be a better way then - Nope, not going to happen unless you unslot them all.

    I'm gonna go with No.

    There are low level ML items with augment slots and high level augments that can be obtained by turn ins.

    If it IS able to be abused, it WILL be abused.

    So just fix the real issue, and give the XP based on the item's ML, ignoring any augment. Boom! Nothing to abuse.

    I'm not going to shell out 150 DDO Points for an item and augment that I want to destroy.

    The other issue is items I have had stored in the bank for years that I am now willing to destroy but they have an augment in them. Just give me the option to destroy the augment when feeding the sentient

    or the ability to buy Jeweler Tool kits for plat
