    Flow stones won't really fit in type 12?

    I've been picking up some cheap flow stones lately, to bring up my last important stats to max. Now I just need places to stick them. Flow stones only fit in Back, Shoulder, Neck, Face and Waist items, I'll soon have one in each of those slots.

    So I'm looking for ways to double up, two flow stones in one item. For instance, you could stick two http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=75344 (which is not a flow stone, but is similar) in a http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=91063

    Or would it violate some uberness constraint to stick two titanites in your BP?

    As far as I know, that extra type-12 slot is exclusive to DoN cultural armor. DoN cultural only covers the 7 visible armor slots, and flow stones do not fit any visible armor, so...

    Flow stones don't actually fit the type 12 slot on any existing items, do they?

    I tried combining Celestial Solvent, a Raw Rough Hide, Rough Hide Solution and a Skinning Knife. But the result was such an oxymoron, it opened a rift into another universe. I fell through into one of Nodyin's spreadsheets and was slain by a misplaced decimal.

    As advertised it should work.

      Flowstones don't fit in any existing slot 12. Only the gemstones that go in visible slots (i.e. Kyanite, Sodalite, Titanite, Tourmaline) do.

      Also, if you want to fit two Titanites into a DoN cultural chest piece, one into slot 12 and one into slot 7, remember they cannot be the same name. i.e., it cannot both be Radiant Cut Titanite.

      But it can be Radiant Cut Titanite + Brilliant Cut Titanite.
      Or Radiant Titanite of Pure Sundering + Radiant Titanite of Pure Ferocity.
      Or Radiant Cut Titanite + Radiant Titanite of Pure Sundering.
      etc etc

        Even if you have some armor with multiple slots in it , 2 of the same aug type can not fit on the same peice of gear.

        You could say mkae a brilliant flowstone , and a radiant flowstone on the same peice though. also you could go with a Radiant Flowstone of minor alacrity , and a Radiant Flowstone of Alacrity , But 2 Radiant Flowstones on the same item will not work.

          I thought my point was simple and clear...

          It is impossible to place a flow stone in a type 12 aug slot. The "Type 12" listed on Flow Stones is misleading.

          This is caused by the complete lack of any shoulder, back, waist, neck, or face item with a type 12 aug slot.

          Mesaa said, "You could say mkae a brilliant flowstone , and a radiant flowstone on the same peice though."

          While the sentiment is helpful and I appreciate the warning and hint, this suggestion happens to be false. Since you cannot place a flowstone in type 12, even if I got the two augments you suggest, I could not possibly put them in the same peice of armor.

          Elfdruidess is right. Titanites, Kyanites, etc are different because they can go in the slot 12's of cultural armor. Flow stones do not go in any existing slot 12. Unfortunately, I'm much, much too poor to have one Titanite, let alone two.

            Do you have anything to support this? I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to stack the effects (of the effects that do stack) if you wanted to use 2 of the same augs.

            Two Radiant Cut Titanite's should = Regeneration+6 since Regeneration stacks.

              The game would not let me put two Pure Kyanite of Pure Battle into a single item. When I somehow did get both on there, I zoned and found the item plus the two augs floating on my cursor.

              I remember the devs mentioning this a long time ago. You cannot put two of the same aug (by name) in a single item.

                its actually by item id number... i have put two of the same "named" DoN augs (one from each camp) into one item

                  I don't think the fact that there are no items in those inventory slots with a type 12 aug slot means that the flowstones are mislabelled, or that they "don't go in type 12 aug slots." it just means that there is no gear with the appropriate combination of slots for them to go in (yet.)

                  You can argue that it amounts to the same thing, but it doesn't, because A) It's not a bug or a bad label, just an itemization flaw and B) it could change in the future if more type 12 slot items are introduced.

                    The problem with that theory is that historically such slots are treated as expansion specific and never show up again...

                    LDoN class 2 and class 3 slots and augments are a great example of this (and another reason LDoN is less used today than perhaps it could be).
