EZ Augment Changes!

Tonight, I changed the way gearing augments work. (Nearly) ALL armor/accessories from QVIC to T10 have one type-24 slot and one type-25 slot. I moved everything in augslot2 to augslot1, then augslot3 into augslot2, then erased the augs in slot 3 and 4.

YES...you likely lost augments.

Amazing News: Resist augs are worth 300% more resists (yes, 3x their previous value). This makes gearing up resists much less terrible. It removes the aug dance crap too. I have scaled up the Leaf of Vitality, the T5 and T7 HP augments, and working to retroactively convert ALL of the LDON augments to the new system.

The point of such a confusing and radical change is to make EZ's gearing augment experience UNIFORM. Some of you were doing the aug dance, in an older client, just to make do. It's easier to simply remove the need for the aug dance altogether.

WARNING: Those of you with HUGE resist values by having Resist Augments in random slots, remove them by Thursday morning or lose them. I'll be running a fairly taxing query Thursday morning (~3am early) to remove hundreds of augments in this fashion. Overall, most players that are ignoring this will still (mostly) see net gains or tiny, tiny drops.


Please post comments/concerns in this thread. Thanks!

Maybe I'm misunderstanding but what if we had an uber aug eg. resist XV in a lower slot and a shitty aug eg resist VI in a higher aug slot? Did we lose the good aug? Also, if we made a habit of that, did we lose a bunch of good augs?

Not complaining at all since it's obviously a good change btw just noticing that would be the case unless I am missing something.

Also, when you say random slots, do you mean resist items in HP slots?

In this case, yes, you would get gimped by this change. But in this case you also would have already been gimping yourself. You should have ditched that VI long ago and used 2 XIV instead of combining them to make a XV.

EDIT: Or an XIV and XIII so you didn't have to get on UF to aug 2 of the same aug.

Looks like some arm slots didn't update. I have Druid and Shaman T8 and Pal T9 that still have all 3 slots. Also looks like ToFS stuff didn't get updated (maybe you said something in OOC and I missed it). I have Vhal Earring, Tser Robe and Tser Earring all with 3 slots.

Alright, just logged in, i see now.

Guess the query he will run on thursday is to remove the augs from ranged weapons etc. since you could put 3 augs in freeport bow.

No, its to remove all 25 slot augs (resists) from slot 24 (HP) 1st slot.


Hate, not sure if it matters but there is also the slimy sapphire of cowardice, it could use the same changes as the resist maybe. Also I tried to combine 2 X Slimy augs and not recipe for it.

Actually, Expletus had it right. All resist augs in any slot that is not type 25 will be deleted . This includes weapons (UW, bows, etc.)

I'm at work and cant log in.. I'm assuming this means instead of stacking a X XI and XII, you get one slot for resist and the other to put a leaf in? Honestly if the resists are worth 3x as much no biggie.

As long as i dont log in and find I have to refarm a hundred Leaf of Vitalities, i'm cool. heh.

if you have leafs in all your slots now, you will be good Smiley you will just loose any resist stones in weapon or range.

The jewler's candlelight needs its aug slots changed to type 24 and 25. Its set as an epic and proc right now even though its not a weapon.

I love the change. Hate how you just dropped it in without warning. Alot of work went into obtaining augs and just deleting them as you did was irresponsible.

I know i bitch alot but you gave a warning for the other slots whynot those slot you deleted?

Over all great change.

What happens to t7 slot specific augs? Way of the dodo?
