Augments Listing & Discussion

[Caestus]

Knowing SE we will only be allowed to Augment non rare/ex crap. Would be pimp if we could Augment rare/ex crap. IE: new stats to Byakko's Haidate!!! /dream

[Zilong]

some people do >.>

hey fuck off, wearing full set cancels out the slow!

[ronin sparthos]

Everything below attack in that list seems suspect as being augmentable..... i eagerly await seeing what hoops you have to jump through in order to attach some stats to armor.

Please dont be some random bullshit... please.

[Destinye]

I think that is a blanket list of all possible modifications to gear. My prediction is that list has nothing to do with augments at all.

People already forgot about what they said the ACP armor will be able to have augmented?

Augmented gear outside of ACP already showed it can have at minimum +HP/MP and +Attributes like STR/VIT/DEX/etc..so it seems this is the list mainly for the ACP armor.

I dont think this is appropriate because we dont even know if they TRULY are augments.

QFT

Until we have solid confirmation on not only the list but the method of obtaning the augmets, any speculation is just going to needlessly get peoples hopes up

[Caestus]

gah i cant stay away!


ALL OF YOU STOP DREAMING!

why?

1. They wont break the game and let you add this to any piece of gear thats already good (like a hauby).
2. Things you add will be capped to a certain amount.
3. This system will probably only let you add to NQ white armor with just DEF as a stat.
4. Even if they let you add stats to hauby it will be so minimal it wont be worth fapping over.
5. more things go here that i cant think of atm.

"Augmented items" have been added.
Augmented items are items with bonus attributes ("augments") in addition to their base attributes. With augments, a given item's attributes may differ from other items of the same name and appearance. Due to their special nature, augmented items may not be traded or delivered to other players, nor sold via bazaars or the auction house.

taken from the SE website. This would imply that you can augment armor with pre-existing stats

Yes, though I certainly doubt RARE/EX gear can be augmented.

[sruon]

Long as they don't make some high-end gear useless, fine with me.

But I'll go with the "we're offering gimps way to get some accuracy at level 30 for 5k."

Or, by base attributes it could mean things like defense...you do know that's an attribute as well right?

The website also says that it's made in a way that it will keep existing gear, e.g hauby/sky/sea/assault/etc type of gear to not become obsolete.

[Caestus]

Yes, though I certainly doubt RARE/EX gear can be augmented.

Oh I do too. However they should have allowed it to be so with a limit on what can actually be added to rare/ex gear.

[Kimiko]

I'm guessing that when a piece of gear is augmented, the current stats on the gear are then thrown into the same programming as the augment. So if you wanted to add something to a pair of Rutter Sabatons, the slow on it would be then stored in the same memory as the augment. It would also explain why DMG and Delay are listed as well.

[Kimiko]

well its not like there going to let you augment a Hauby and give it 5% haste.

why would they let you augment a hauby rendering a EBODY not as pimp? I cant imagine them doing this.

What says so far that it's not going to let you do that to an e.body?

Nothing as of yet. If this happened it would be amazing and SE would have made everyone happy.

if this can be applied to rings, omfg then the Herc just became the
new defending ring :D

I got an error while updating for "D:ROM/220/52.DAT" - same folder, could be related?

Been trying to update again to see if the problem persists, but the servers are flooded with other updaters atm, so I can't.

[Destinye]

I am going to be so pissed if they do that. It will render gear from salvage not worth the time. If you can simply add haste to whatever you want would ruin this game. This is why i think this thread is bad, its creating dumb speculation that wont happen. I can guarantee they wont allow it. I will gladly eat those words if i am wrong.

SE is already known to not stupidly render previous gear obsolete, people still run in around in relic, salvage, sky, assault and sea gear, them letting people augment a hauby and etc will just be..asinine..but of course people would see that as nothing but 'win'.

[jimbobsonofgod]

Yeah cause square is all about levels of disappointment with their player base. Not interested in making their player base happy.

I highly doubt square is gonna let you have refresh on hands legs feet (head if you ain't rdm)
I highly doubt they'll do the same thing with - perp cost.
I doubt they would let you augment earrings/rings/back

[heavensword]

Where is the Quick Draw recast??? Must be ACP option only.

...brb adding Store TP & Haste to my Haubergeon.
