    It's the upgrades that make them silly. The base items are decent enough on their own.

    Are they really that much more silly than ToD sets though? (okay, granted, yes, a lot of those are kind of cruddy)

    I think this stuff is around the same ball park really.

    Correction: the spell point reductions kick in when you're at 50/25/10% of your total HP, not your total SP. SP would be very powerful, but HP is significantly weaker. Nobody wants to be running with their HP on fumes in a quest difficult enough to warrant serious SP conservation.

    I'm not really sure if this should go here, or if I should make a separate thread in the crafting sub forums, but oh well.

    I got tired of waiting to see the new items from the raids, so to ease my craving for new stuff i went and looked at the new crafting station/barter box in the wilderness area before the lord of blades raid. I took screenshots of everything in it, and made an album for it. Mostly due to the number of items I'm hesitant to post all the screenshots, so here's the link to the album instead:

    Enjoy! I know i liked the look of it

    heh, you posted that while I was busy turning my screenshots into words:

    Before using the crafting machine on the Lord of Blades side you need to get an Attuned Alchemical Item. This is done my getting a blank Alchemical Item from the Master Artificer raid and adding one of the following metal types in the Master Artificer side machine:
    • Adamantine
    • Silver
    • Cold Iron
    • Flame Touched Iron
    • Byeshk
    • Crystal


    I went through the crafting device on the way to Lord of Blades and here's what's inside:

    Weapon Augments:

    Tier 1 requires: Attuned Alchemical Item, Khyber Dragonshard of <element>, Martial Cannith Power Cell
    • Air: Shocking Burst, Stunning +10, Awareness 4
    • Earth: Acid Burst, Greater Stone Prison, Earthgrab
    • Water: Icy Burst, Freezing Ice, Fireshield(cold) (like Bracers of the Glacier)
    • Fire: Flaming Burst, Flaming Blast, Seeker +10


    Tier 2 requires: Infused Alchemical Item(Tier 1 item), Khyber Dragonshard of <element> (Refined), Martial Cannith Power Cell
    • Air: Exceptional Dexterity +2, Lightning Strike, Doublestrike 6%
    • Earth: Exceptional Constitution +2, Acid Blast, Disintegration
    • Water: Exceptional Wisdom +2, Crushing Wave, Corrosice Salt
    • Fire: Exceptional Strength +2, Incineration, Righteous


    Tier 3 requires: Dual-Infused Alchemical Item (Tier 2 item), Khyber Dragonshard of <element> (Exquisite), Martial Cannith Power Cell, 10 Epic Dungeon Tokens
    • Air: +6 Enhancement Bonus, Electrifying Blast, Empty Red Augment Slot
    • Earth: +6 Enhancement Bonus, Corrosive Blast, Empty Red Augment Slot
    • Water: +6 Enhancement Bonus, Freezing Blast, Empty Red Augment Slot
    • Fire: +6 Enhancement Bonus, Fiery Blast, Empty Red Augment Slot


    The Tier 3 blast effect is:
    "This weapon is imbued with a <element> wrath. On an attack roll of 20 which is confirmed as a critical hit this <element> power will be released, dealing damage to the target and all enemies near it for 15d6 <element> damage. A successful Reflex save (DC 34) reduces this by half."
    Spell Augment:

    The cost per tier is the same as weapons except that it uses Mystical Cannith Power Cell instead of Martial Cannith Power Cell

    Tier 1:
    Superior <type> IX Item of
    • Air: Superior Magnetism IX, Superior <type> IX, Air Gaurd
    • Earth: Superior Corrosion IX, Superior <type> IX, Earthgrab Gaurd
    • Water: Superior Glaciation IX, Superior <type> IX, Freezing Ice Gaurd
    • Fire: Superior Combustion IX, Superior <type> IX, Magma Surge Gaurd

    <type>:
    • Laceration: Increases the damage of your ~th level and lower slashing and bludgeoning spells by 50%. This effect does not stack with other item effects or potions. Requires Adamantine base item.
    • Radiance. Requires Silver base item.
    • Resonance. Requires Cold Iron base item.
    • Devotion. Requires Flame Touched Iron base item.
    • Nullification. Requires Byeshk base item.
    • Impulse. Requires Crystal base item.


    Tier 2:
    Adds Superior Lore(12% chance, +.5 multiplier) of the base item's two elements. It also says that it removes a clicky of superior spark/erosion/inferno/freeze, but there is no indication that the base items have that ability

    Tier 3:
    • Air: Efficient Metamagic Enlarge II, Greater Enchantment Focus, Spell Focus Mastery +1
    • Earth: Efficient Metamagic Empower II, Greater Conjuration Focus, Greater Spell Penetration IX
    • Water: Efficient Metamagic Extend II, Greater Transmutation Focus, Greater Elemental Spell Power
    • Fire: Efficitent Metamagic Maximize II, Greater Evocation Focus, Aracane Augmentation IX


    Crafting Materials:

    • Crafted in the Master Artificer side machine:
      • 1 Empty Kyhber Dragonshard of (tier) = 200 (tier) Khyber Dragonshard Fragments
      • 1 Attuned Alchemical Item: Prototype Alchemical weapon/shield, Cannith Power Cell, Pliable Ingot, Dense Ingot, Glowing Ingot
    • Crafted in the Lord of Blades side machine:
      • 1 Kyhber Dragonshard of <element> (tier) = 1 Empty Kyhber Dragonshard of (tier) + 1 Spirit of <element>
    • Ingots are crafted in the Cannith Manufactury device from parts dropped by mobs in the explorer areas

    EDIT: Made it clear that you need to add a metal type to a blank before adding Tier 1/2/3

    I read that as it adds the clicky, not removes a non-existent one. Mostly as the clicky description is under the fluff text at the bottom, and not properly under the 'Effects removed' description.
    I guess we'll wait to see someone make one before we know for sure. Where are all those slacking powergamers not making this stuff already?!

    on a side note, my habit of hoarding khyber dragonshards of various sizes is going to come in handy in the near future...

    And people were saying Greensteel was too powerful...great googly-moogly.

    Cleric/FvS kinda get screwed, since their spell bonuses are all on the "other" category, so they can't boost 2 useful elements at once (I'd like to put Superior Laceration IX and Superior Devotion IX on the same item, please).

    But picture the Pale Master with:

    Superior Glaciation IX, Superior Nullification IX, Freezing Ice Guard, Major Ice Lore, Major Void Lore, Efficient Metamagic: Empower II, Greater Conjuration Focus, Greater Spell Pen IX.

    All on ONE ITEM.

    Most pale masters have Void lore on robe. Epic Robe of Shadow is (or, better said, was; and probably will be again), in particular, very easy to obitain.

    Also, another question... is it possible to combine elements?

    IE. Could I get Earthgrab guard (tier 1-earth); Major Ice lore (tier 2-water) and Arcane Augmentation IX (tier 3-fire) on same item?

    It's superior lore, not major. It's even better

    You should be able to combine different elements on different tiers. I'm not sure about combing weapon & spell augments. I'd have to go back and check.

    EDIT: Went back to take a look. Each Tier of weapon/spell augment creates the same type of alchemical item, so it does look like you can combine weapon and spell augments(but spell augments 1 & 2 are restricted based on the items base metal type)

    Also, it's an easy invis(more than 1, multiple levers) run to the machines. Getting to the Lord of Blades device requires picking a lock or fightign 3 golems instead.

    In conclusion, awsome crafting is awsome, but we have no idea how much grind is involved in getting the mats
