Enchanting parasite weapons 09/19/2017 04:52 PM CDT
Has anyone tried and/or been successful at enchanting a parasite weapon from Duskruin? The wiki seems to imply it is possible. To quote it, it states "The weapons can be enchanted and ensorcelled, however, it is difficult through player methods." In my testing, I didn't get any kind of read on it when casting 925. I don't have the exact message it gave, but it definitely wasn't the "completely beyond your abilities" message.

I would think the blood flares would make it not player enchantable, but wiki seems to state otherwise.

scripted flares would not block enchanting.

Recommend checking out this page. Category B flares almost universally block enchanting while Category D flares do not generally.

The blood flares are part of the script. The script itself is just very hard to enchant.

Wyrom says, "Ordim is the reason savants won't be coded as well."

I seem to recall at least one enchant that was done on one. I will double check on that and point them this way.

MEKK1 - Have you successfully taken one to 5x? My original message wasn't so great, as I was mostly just trying to figure out if anyone has been successful in getting one of these to
5x.

I never tried, I untempered it.

I have successfully enchanted one to 5x.

They are difficult to enchant, as the material is bone, but possible.

Deansmith, would you mind sharing your level and skills? I'm trying to get an idea of what level my wiz needs to be and if he needs to be 2x wizard circle to realistically enchant a parasite weapon.


As I gaze over the horizon, the wind tugs at my cloak and whispers, "Adventure" in my ear.

Sure.

The character was level 100, though not remotely close to fully trained for enchanting at the time, and it proved to be a more difficult project than I am used to attempting. I haven't tried to enchant it any further. At any rate, I believe his relevant skills and stats at the time of each cast were as follows:

Logic: 100 (25)
Intuition: 100 (25)
Aura: 100 (25)
Level: 100
MjE Spells: 101
MnE Spells: 77
Wiz Spells: 100
Arcane Symbols: 101 ranks
Magic Item Use: 101 ranks
EMC: 101 ranks
Potion: Mirtokh
Workshop: Yes (Guild)
Familiar present: Yes
Health/Spirit: Full
Injuries: None
Encumbrance: None
