The auction list here brought to mind a concerning trend that I've been noticing lately, to which I'd like to draw a bit of attention. While I'll probably never obtain an auction item (seriously, please come up with some other way to distribute high-end items like this sometimes that affords more people an actual chance), I've noticed that the various paid events lately are doing the same thing. Namely, pretty much all of the armor offered anymore has a flare enchantment on it. In and of itself this isn't a big deal, but since these flares cause Empathic Shock it ends up basically making it so that the events never offer any armor suitable for an Empath.

So going forward, please address the situation from one of two directions:

1. Make damaging armor flares not cause Empathic Shock, since they shouldn't anyway. The wearer is not taking any action that directly damages anything, and so this is really a pretty clear-cut No-Shock situation in the first place.

2. Go back to still offering some non-flare armor options as well.

Thanks,

This makes me think someone should relook the SimuCoin version of the personal sanctuary. 3,000 SimuCoins (essentially $30) for 30 charges?

I'll agree with Karthor that the shock situation should be looked at for flare armor.

Any chance we could go pick up and play with some of this stuff in Test?

Should a particular flare on an item become undesirable to its owner, it can be removed using a shatter sigil from Chapter 2 in the Artificing instruction book.

We'd like to keep this thread on the topic of specific auction offerings and questions around them. Suggestions related to flares would belong in the "Lore > Suggestions - Lore" topic.

Thanks!

That works too, I didn't realize there was a way to remove enchantments yet. Thanks for the info.

It would be neat if enchantments/flares/etc could be turned off vs removed. Just throwing that out there!



Uzmam! The Chairman will NOT be pleased to know you're trying to build outside of approved zones. I'd hate for you to be charged the taxes needed to have this place re-zoned. Head for the manor if you're feeling creative.
