Augmented Items Abound! (07/13/2009)

[dejet]

It will be somewhat like the lower lvl one with a few items having decent aug's worth getting. who knows maybe the ernet(sp lol) can get Hmp+1 making it like a +1 without the extra +1 to states.

Flame ring with +1 str maybe? making best str ring. Got to look for the few items that will shine like this. Weps idk wonder if I could aug my hagun for +4 dmg ^^ lol(its a ENM drop so who knows might not work right?) I would throw haguns at this quest if i could get + dmg that much i know.

And my inventory is weeping again... looks hot but also makes me cringe at the temptation of augmenting a ton of gear for my 75's that I just don't have room to keep on my main full time -_-

Idk if you can get +same attribute but I know you can get +same elemental resistance. If you could get +same attribute we should see Promise Badge's with additional MND, and Devot+1 with additional MND.

Hmmm. Here's an interesting thought; notice the stat+ differences in normal Lv.50 and Lv.75 gear. Maybe the augments from the higher level FoV's will be a lot better? :/ I mean, we already see a big difference from that errant body. If so, I wonder how it'll affect lower level gear. I imagine the level on the item matters too.

Watch the NMs be badasses now. RDM/NIN solo type things.

Nah, it's just random stat shit that SE is throwing us to give us the placebo of 'omg this shit will be awesome!' and then replace it on update day with -10 MND, -50 MP, +25 Water Resist. :I

SE failed to mention the 50 other versions of that Errant body. Where are the HP+36, MP-36; STR+3, DEX+3, MND-3, INT-3; and Fire+26, AGI+7, Acc-5 versions people will actually be getting, SE? >.>

Cheap holy bolt spam body?
+7 agi +10 MND LOL?

edit: lol made it *chap* body. Osode would be better forgot LOL still if you could get 7 agi it be ok* I am no ranger so idk how well the -str would do to holy bolts.

[Therin]

Yeah, I'm guessing that Errant Body and the Scythe are the "best" of their respective augments.

Things that come to mind for me personally:

Warwolf Belt (any DD stat - Acc, Att, DEX, STR, etc.)
Hierarch Belt (MP, HMP, HP, MDB, any idle stat)
Koenig Shield (pretty much any stat, it's already a great shield so anything that isn't negative will help)
Light Staff (any additional MP, MND, etc. would make this a little better)

Everything else is probably either non-augmentable or too expensive (like Haub+1) to bother spamming.

[Rocl]

No job listed on Errant can use crossbow...

ah LOL nvm ~_~

[Farseer]

Macuahuitl +1, Haguns and Pole grips WOOP Hauby+1 too XD

[Nameless]

If you get a +4 damage on death scythe +1... wouldn't it be pretty nice.

[Therin]

What makes you think you could get +DMG augments on a weapon? <_<

Well... the OP?

[Virtuous Saint]

Well... the OP?

Only problem there is the fact that, that is from the BC shit or w/e, the other is from FoV which as has been seen is garbage adjustments.

This, exactly. BRP, the +DMG augment is on a BRAND NEW item. There's no reason to believe they're going to let us stick +DMG on our old items since up until now FoV augmenting has been extremely limited.

Think of this as FoV and ANNM, except it's not *technically* ANNM, it's going to work very similarly. Limited items, limited augments, and completely separate from FoV.

[Seraphus]

Well... the OP?

[Seraph]

At least I see this as progress since SE is casually admitting their augment random number generator is shit. They are going to give us more than one chance to roll a decent item at least.

Given the scope of what items can be augmented, I will say this definitely has potential to be good. Maybe this will effect 'pixie status' and cause them to appear in the present more too.

Also; $10 the mage weapons won't beat Elemental Staves. Just sayin'.
