I'm soothed to see Sylinar sport super spectacles.

Great addition. I really appreciate you guys taking the player feedback into consideration.

>>Does spell aiming fall anywhere under this chart? Weapon skill maybe?

Unfortunately, it doesn't. Spell aiming is a little more rarer too.

No. Only ranged, thrown, edged, twohanded, polearm, and brawling skills.

Same rules apply, right? We could chose swapping up to three times per run? Or only once per run?

>>We could chose swapping up to three times per run? Or only once per run?

Same rules. You pick 3 services, or one of the offered service three times, or any combination up to a total of three, and Sylinar will do it/them on whichever eligible item you'd like.

With regard to the enhancive swapping..

Lets say I have an enhancive that is +5 Logic and +5 Influence... yes/no on whether or not I can swap out the influence for logic?

Super awesome. So I could take a pair of +4 ranged and covert them to spell aiming?

Velvette

Remember, you can't swap them from two difference items. So no making a super enhancive. Swapping a SINGLE enhancive is the service. So in the example where you have +5 brawling and +5 thrown, and you'd want +10 polearm, that's 2 services. And both those enhancives would need to be on the same item. Hope that helps.

>>Okay. That's crazy in a very good way. But what is the maximum possible bonus to a single skill?

>>If I had an item that was +8 brawling and +8 thrown, are you going to make it +16 polearm for two services?

Yes, at the cost of 2/3rd of the services for this event. The levels restrictions will also be increased, should they exist for the enhancive (it would fall in line with the bonus:level ratio).

>>Has this cleared QC?

Yes. But if we want to scrutinize it, I'll make sure.

Just want to be sure I understand the conditions clearly:

'All restrictions on an item will remain.' Does this mean that if I change a set of vambraces which add to brawling bonus, and require a lot of brawling skill, to have a OHE bonus, that they will still require a lot of brawling skill, or will the restriction 'follow' the bonus?

'Fusion items are not eligible.' No orbs, then, or is this specifically for armor and weapons already charged?

What is the maximum capacity of charges an item may hold, and is there an easy way to determine what the current capacity is?

Tarakan

Oops... And while I'm on the subject, does the stamina recovery benefit accrued from having enhanced Constitution count towards the stamina recovery cap in the same way that the bonus maximum health and maximum stamina from enhanced Constitution counts toward those caps?

No orbs.

Restrictions remain include:

Level Requirements (including recalculating per Wyrom's earlier post)
Society
Race
Profession
Guild
Character/Account attunement


Checking on the skill-swap thing.

For reference, at this year's EG festival in the shop selling COL enhancives a sign stated that each enhancive had 25 charges. I didn't know if it was a warning that the enhancives wouldn't last long or if it was a promotion that they would last a long time. Sounds like they were about average.

One of the services to be offered at Sylinar's Spire is to increase the capacity of an item by the greater of 10 charges or 10%. Why would that service be desirable? Is it cheaper per charge to recharge an item if the item has a lot of charges?

I think most people are like me, we have a couple of enhancives, don't orb things and just sell stuff we find that are sort of meh to the pawnshop for 35k.

The swapping service is pretty awesome and while I don't want to complain I just can't understand how decisions are made regarding service/item offerings, game balance, etc. You guys won't sell flaring armors at regular merchants or 5x weapons at ebon gate but you'll make a quick, unplanned decision (appearing to be a reaction to poor sales of tickets for the original offerings) to let folks SIGNIFICANTLY upgrade their enhancives and attack abilities at this event. One SMALL example is a +5 to constitution bonus ring that was in a player shop for 1m. A quick service change to dexterity and someone just increased their ranged AS by +5. This event just became a mini rtcf because of the addition. And it seems further unbalanced because it caters mostly to the already powerful high end players who have high end enhancives and/or the silver to buy them. Please help me understand. This is just me being honest so please don't flame me. I am personally taking advantage also...I was able to put together a logic dagger set because I ran out and bought 2 +6 to inf/int bonus and 2 +8 to inf/int player shop items. Instant major permanent upgrade to my character. Hurray!?

>>For reference, at this year's EG festival in the shop selling COL enhancives a sign stated that each enhancive had 25 charges.

That would be Clepsydra, which was my shop. All the enhancives sold there were 25 charges and crumbly, meaning if you let the last charge run out, the item poofs. So yes, you could bring those to the Spire and have them changed to hold 35 charges, or you could make them non-crumbly. Or both, if you wanted to use 2 of your 3 services on that item!

>>>>I just can't understand how decisions are made regarding service/item offerings, game balance, etc.

While this obviously looked like an "on the fly" update. It was discussed prior to this event being announced. We decided to go with the 4 services we initially announced. These smaller events are going to be touch and go though. We need to see what you guys value them. What makes them worth it. As for this turning into as mini RtCF, we're talking about one service offered at RtCF being offered here. That's a pretty big stretch by any imagination.

>>>>And it seems further unbalanced because it caters mostly to the already powerful high end players who have high end enhancives and/or the silver to buy them.

People with expensive appetites tend to want expensive things. There is balance in this. You make yourself a +12 Logic enhancive, it's going to cost you a lot more than it being two +6 enhancives. If there is a level restriction on that enhancive, it's also going to be increased quite a bit. Some people could easily make level 90 enhancives here.

But we have the balance of having hard caps for enhancives. With fusion, people are achieving close to those caps with great orbs.
