Overwhelming Dark Energy

[nitsuj]

... is it possible? My alchemy mule will soon be attempting to make my Cursed Mail -1, and I'd love to have it to reduce items lost on breaks (if that even works)

Go about 80% of the way down and check out the Dark section. See if anything is relatively cheap to make and has less strength than your +1 furniture. I'm doing about 25 water barrels for fishing since the big one is only 5 strength lol

Shit, I'm an idiot. I was thinking they were ALL rare/ex. I can just buy a whole bunch of those paintings... and the 200k shell lamp

Shell lamp is 10 strength I assume +1 skill item is only 9 and signboard would tie it with 10 thus causing no effect? Paintings though don't seem too bad, purchased from NPC at least.

I'm trying to understand how it all works...

1 lamp + signboard and furniture would = no effect

but adding a 2nd lamp or a bunch of paintings would give me the effect but I'd lose the moglification? I wanted to work it out so I had both GP items and overwhelming dark energy for Dark Crystal help and moglification: alchemy on my mule...

My main is going to do the same for fishing, as mentioned in the fishing thread, which is what got me started on this.

Otherwiki says that Shell Lamp is 9 strength, and someone requested verification.

Start with both alchemy furnishings and 6 copies of Autumns End (thats the most you can fit since it goes on the walls only) and tell us what you get.

I can verify that shell lamp is indeed lower than signboard. I have had bonecraft signboard:10 and shell lamp:9 and drog fang:9 and have moglification bonecraft.

This is good, right? You can keep your moglification AND get overwhelming dark?

[arkias]

Yes, I just keep it at powerful but the concepts the same.

Since there are no proven cases of stronger energy giving a better moghancement, you'll be wise to wait for the "Artisan's Advantage" Super Kupower if you really want to avoid losing materials.

Now, getting a specific Kupower to align with the moon phase you want...yeah, I won't be surprised if this ends with you waking up in the middle of the night or something.

Cool thanks, and sorry Nitsuj , I wasn't trying to confuse you. The Moghancement chart says shell lamp is 10, but if you click on the item itself it says 9. So anyways it must be 9 or less, that's awesome

Read the sticky?

Not only does elemental energy not affect synth successs or HQ rates, it does not affect break rates, at least not on what I synth. (I'm talking thousands of synths here.)

If you want to believe, so be it.

No way, it's going to wake up with my Corsair wearing Blood Scale Mail

Yeah I read it, but it's a level 99 Synth, so you can bet your pretty avatar I'll be facing the right direction with the "right moon phase" and the right day and the right strength, not to mention 100 + 3 + 3 + signboard *and* artisans advantage if I can help it!

How exactly does overwhelming (water?) energy effect fishing?
