Is the run on the 23rd going to be the only Plat run? And is there a reason that the area will only be open for a period of four hours?
It seems reasonable that since you have the opportunity to bring other chars from the same account in for shopping and such, it would be nice to have a few more hours. I understand that your three services have to happen within that initial four hour window though. Just something to consider.
I ask about the plat run because I would have liked to do it, but a Sunday morning is NEVER going to work for me. Sad for me that the money isn't the issue, the timing is.

Any word if the brawling vambraces restrictions are going to change with the swap service? Like change brawling to OHE but require 50 ranks of OHE instead of brawling?

We're a go on this. If you switch +5 OHE (requiring 30 ranks of OHE skill) to +5 brawling, as an example, Sylinar will switch the restriction to 30 ranks of brawling skill.

Yes, for now. If there's a demand we'll schedule more.
>>And is there a reason that the area will only be open for a period of four hours?
With limited tickets, we want everyone to be able to get their 3 services in a certain duration. 50 ticket sell outs, 4 hours to do. That was our educate guess. The four hour duration is the same as the Albatross Excursions, but at this point, Sylinar's beloved Spire is just not that big. The shop info I mentioned earlier is what you can expect for this event. The grounds themselves, outside the tower, are only a couple rooms. So while there's mood messaging and some cool details here and there when you LOOK at stuff, and while Sylinar will definitely RP as he works, it's not a big exploring thing.
Now, as I said, there are lots of ideas and potential for future expansion. But for now, 4 hours really should be plenty. It's primarily about the services and hiding pin souvenir.

Haven't heard from anyone yet about general skills like picking locks. Could you switch disarm to picking? Or climbing to picking? The first post had (any other skill) but not sure if that meant general skills or not...

Re: Sylinar's Spire: Super Swapping Service

Pretty sure the answer to that is no, based on the original post:
Strength to Wisdom (one to another)
Constitution, Dexterity, Agility, or Discipline (any one to another)
Logic, Intuition, or Influence (any one to another)
Any Weapons Skill, Except TWC or Multi-Opponent Combat, (any one to another)
Magic Item Use to Arcane Symbols (one to another)
Mana Controls - Elemental, Spiritual, Mental (one to another)
Any Lores (any one to another)
So you could switch Logic to Influence. Or Intuition to Logic. None of the skills listed above are Lock Picking, and nothing indicates that that one could be included in any of the "any one to another". Those words (one to another) refer directly to the list provided.

It provides a bonus of 4 to Agility Bonus.
This enhancement cannot be used by adventurers without at least a strong amount of skill in Brawling.
It provides a bonus of 6 to Brawling Bonus.
This enhancement cannot be used by adventurers without at least a strong amount of skill in Brawling.
Two questions about the above item:
(1) If I switch brawling to spell aiming and leave the agility bonus as is, will I still need brawling skill to take advantage of the agility bonus?
(2) If I switch brawling to spell aiming and switch agility to dexterity, will the requirement for both enhancive traits be switched to spell aiming?
Thanks in advance.

Just based off the feedback here Wyrom, is there any chance the following enhancive swaps could be considered in addition:
- Armor Use, Shield Use, Dodge, Physical Fitness?, Hiding?
- Ambush, TWC, CM, MoC, Perception? Physical Fitness? Hiding?
- Add Harness in with Mana Controls
- Survival, Disarm Traps, Pick Locks, First Aid, Trading, Pick Pockets, Perception? Hiding?
- Climb, Swim, Perception?
The skills with a question mark are in multiple places because I wasn't sure the best category to put them in. All that said I completely understand if you and Mestys do not wish to add any further skills to the list. Just thought I'd make the suggestion.

There are no plans on offering tertiary skill swapping, just because the balance is actually a lot harder.

We will only update the restriction if you change the enhancive. So unfortunately for these bracers, you'll need to use 2 services to fully change it over. But yes, both would be spelling aiming.

Makes sense Wyrom, thanks for the quick response. Just a little nit pick on the currently accepted categories. Shouldn't Dexterity be in the same category as Strength? It is a primary AS stat for ranged and bolt attacks. It is the most valuable stat in the Dexterity, Agility, Constitution, Discipline category by a very large margin.

getting to this thread late I think ...
Is there anything planned that allows swapping of scripts from one item to another? For instance, moving the Voln script from one item of armor to another?

The picking stat is DEX, which is pretty attractive to swap into at this event. I'd look for stats to turn into DEX if you haven't already maxxed out your DEX enhancives.

Hey I was wondering why you won't allow switching with TWC? Is it because TWC is valued higher (or lower)?
I ask because I recently made a bummer purchase from a player shop and misread TWC for THW... So I was hoping for a way to switch it to THW. Thought I'd double-check the swapping post and there-and-behold an exclusion for TWC. Argh.
Maybe we can find some wiggle-room here before the next Sylinar's Spire runs?

Two Weapon Combat is not a direct AS skill, therefore, it is not eligible to switch between the other skills that contribute directly to weapon or bolt AS.
