Cedir's (almost) Complete Guide to LDoN Smithing (spoiler, duh)

[Cedir]

Maybe in my enthusiasm, I saw a 20 where there was really a 24 (the SLP price, I mean). I guess I will find out when I restock.

Zeralenn: Your guide has been a big help to me with my smithing.

I believe there may be a (small) market for the Sandblasted and Gothic, based on the stats I've seen. What do you think? I replaced my Imbued Koada`Dal Mithril Curiass with the Sandblasted Steel Breastplate.

I am very curious to see what the "Ice Temper" makes. Like I said, I assume it will have INT and SvC... maybe CHA as well.

I hope they didn't forget to put the drop in. Please, in order to make me feel better, if *anybody* sees Ice Lichen in beta, post here immediately .

Ice Lichen is MOST DEFINATELY in.


I have made the "Frosted Steel Breastplate", with AC 28, INT 6, SvC 6, wt 5.5


I could have sworn I screenshooted the temper too, for archival purposes, but it appears I did not.

The temper name, IIRC, is Lichen Temper.

Ok, now I gots an off topic question, HOW DO you guys land these beta gigs?? I've been playoing 3 years and my account is in perfect standing (never even had any complints to GM's about me) and I never get offered/accepted in betas

Maybe a silly question with the new augment slots, but did anyone try throwing in an imbued gem?

Fantastic . Actually, in all the screen shots I've seen of Miragul's, it looks icy. But, in all three Miragul's dungeons I've been in, there is no ice... it's like a mansion or something. Maybe the Ice Lichen only drops in the Miragul's dungeons that are icy? If so, they will probably be the rarest component.

I have made the "Frosted Steel Breastplate", with AC 28, INT 6, SvC 6, wt 5.5

Are you sure it's 28AC? That doesn't fit the pattern of the others.

Imbued Gems do not have the AUGMENTATION tag.

In this case, the devs adverted that they were looking for people to beta test, and it was first come, first serve. I missed that, but managed to get in when someone over at Mage Compendium noticed that the Beta Registration link was working.

I haven't been on much lately, though, and didn't play enough to figure out any tradeskill stuff - or even get the LDoN merchants to start listing any gear for sale.

[Cedir]

I got in on the most recent open call. There was a bright yellow message saying that they were admiting openly to beta for a little while, so I "/q"ed my sucky PoJ group and got in as fast as I could .

[Iannyen]

I meant in the original smithing combine, not as an augment. Probably would result in a DNC, but it'd be nice to know.

Calcified , Sandblasted, and Frosted are all 28 AC, in the screenshot I took.

Well, the screenshot that I don't see doesn't make the screen I'm looking at any less real .

Let's try to figure out why we're getting different AC.

I am using regular sized molds. Are you using large? I know that doesn't make a difference on most armor sets but maybe it does on these?

One thing that was not covered was race, is the plate All, or are Iksar excluded?

I believe Iksar is excluded. Otherwise, all races can wear it, based on the size of mold that you use.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.





Notice the pretty letters IKS? I knew screenshots would come in handy, even if Cedir did beat me to the full write up. *grumble*

[Morgrist]

I understand that some of the LDoN armor has multiple augment slots.

Does any of the smithed stuff as of this point in beta?
