I am having a problem. I have figured out how to make the molds but once you do, what do you do with it? Do you put any weapon in it or just those made of black acrylia? And where do you combine the weapon? Does the mold and the weapon become a combination weapon and ornament? It is probably obvious but I am stumped and don't want to mess it up. Can anyone help me?

Once you make the mold, you combine it in a Kiln with a High Quality Firing Sheet to create the container item.
This container item then can be used on any appropriate weapon type (1 hand slash, 2 hand blunt, etc..). When you put your weapon in the container and press combine it changes the displayed graphic of the weapon from the original form and permanently makes it look like the new Black Acrylia (or Ceramic) weapon type that you converted it to.

Not quite, Iit does not make a black acrylia weapon. It changes the graphic of the weapon to that of the appropriate type with that of the Black Acrylia Weapon of that type. Kind of the way armor dyes work on armor. The only thing that changes is what other people see.

I guess what frustrates me is that it changes nothing. You put a weapon in and change the appearance but no stats. Why would anyone want one? Why call it an ornament if there are no stats included?
Thank you Gorse, for all the info. I did make one but now trying to decided what to do with it. lolLast edited by Craftylady; 02-24-2010, 06:26 PM.

Some people prefer certain appearances. These are simply cosmetic and serve only to please those who want a different graphic for a weapon. Whether they liked an older model or don't like a current one.Shawlweaver Sphynx on Cazic Thule

They are also handy for for converting whips, which are 1-HS into something that doesn't make the whip-crack sound all the time.
Also, ornaments are "things that lend grace or beauty". At least SOE didn't confuse the issue by calling them augments.

Placing a ... weapon into this mold will permanently change the look of the weapon into that of the mold itself.
Seems rather clear to me what the mold does.Last edited by Tobynn; 02-25-2010, 04:45 PM.

People like being able to do something unique, even if everybody else is doing it too, or if placed in gender terms, the reason women, on statistical average, own seven times the number of shoes that men do.
