Just a heads up.  Make sure when you turn your strike aug into the NPC to Aug your weapon that you remove your epic aug first or he will eat it.

I'm kind of assuming you are doing this to add 2 augs?

I think this issue should have a better remedy. Its silly that a sealer needs to be used to add augs to a weapon. I have never done it myself.... don't wanna go thru the hassle. I would rather have less dps :p

Is there any way to add this function to rof2 point and click system? By modifying the augs maybe? Or even remove the secondary slot and boost 2h Aug dmg as was previously planned (i think? ) in hates changes that were never finished...?

I have seen more than once recently with people having issues with Aug merchant and there should be something easier in place. It would be better time spent fixing this than akk's mailbox filling up with requests to return eaten items. Just my 2cp.

Any thoughts?

Rock - You can't add two same aug to 2h weapon on RoF2 so we have to use the Aug Sealer guy to slap em on for you. It's really painless. I don't know why he suddenly eating the epic aug.

I understand.  That's what my post is about. :)

If using rof2 shouldn't need Aug sealer...modified my orig post too maybe it makes sense now.

Lol sorry at work and doing this from phone

When your doing combines with weapons you already have.  Make sure it is wiped clean before combining.  Lost epics on accident doing the us combine and just had to live and learn and get it all over again.  Takes a few seconds.

Yeah lol I started at epic 1.5 on my alt pally yesterday after work...then realized I can get the 5.0 aug from Greetings in Abyss...just ned to go kill OMM/FloatingSkull/Vul'ak/HG to get back to 9.0...so spending all that time getting the 2.5 in Hushed Banquet was a waste of time last night

Hot damn, I never even thought about that haha...f me and all the stupid ways I've lost epics and regrinded from scratch!

Greetings hands you an actual 5.0 Aug and not a completed 5.0 book?  Hmmmm doesn't sound right but I've never thought about it much either....

edit: Pretty sure I did this once and received an aug.

Last time I had to redo an epic the 5.0 was just a book and not the aug so I still had to farm all the way up from 1.5

Just checked, at this time. You can get Completed 5.0 book by hailing Greeting NPC.

Not aug.

I got the aug book DOH! on Foesmiter

something similar(?) happened to me today..

I had a weapon with epic (4.5) aug in it, and handed the aug sealer 2 FS augs to put in (FS6) and he ate both of the FS augs... the weapon and the epic aug were ok, tho..

Seems like this could be fixed with a Epic flagging system.  That way if you somehow lose your epic aug, you could tak to the epic NPC and he will give you another.

Soraken

Refarming them really isn't that bad, takes a couple hours til T7, then you have to clear for the stones unless you have some banked, but T8 and T9 are fast re-farms.

remove your aug then upgrade doesnt seem that hard. amd call it eq classic.. you fuck up you redo it

I think some of you are missing the point. It's not a matter of refarming or "screwing up" when doing the turn in. The sealer has been eating peoples` strike augs. That is a problem.

The idea i was trying to illustrate was getting rid of the Aug sealer altogether. There has got to be a better way to put two augs in a two hander. Either by changing the augs or changing the slots. Or... again- finish what hate started and convert two hander to a single Aug and boost dps on 2h Aug.

I believe the Aug sealer is dated and if we are running rof2 there is NO reason we should still be using it. Understand this is just an opinion.

At the same time i have no idea what kind of time akka has to devote to something like this.... and his time could very likely could be better spent working on something else.

Rant away!

just bring back the " turn in safety net" ...  the weekend of the turn back would of happen if it was in place or not.
In my opinion getting rid of that was bull shit.. the "safety net" did more good than harm to this server


just put it back in place
 

I thought Akka did put it back in place?

Only if we have update on the front page or something.

Things like this are not covered by the safety net. Because the item I
Was turned into the right npc.

Problem is the npc wipes everything on the weapons when it zones you to place the augs into the weapon. So basically there's a line of script that for some odd reason checks for any other augment and clears it as an error. This serves the purpose of of not having an aug wiped I guess but you would still lose it by replacement of the new aug so whatever it's useless

If the script identified an aug, cleared it and put it in the first available inventory slot that would be a sound script. But we have this instead

still sounds like just handing him a un augged weapon will fix the problem and as i recall he tell you to do so. its the same thing as forgetting to remove a aug from armor then combining it to next tier and lose that aug... that is player error. a saftynet for your aug would be nice but if did the turn in the right way it works fine

The point of my post was to warn others to remove the epic aug...not looking for replacement...getting the 9.0 is a pain but just because it is time consuming when I could be doing something else.  Since this is also a toon I haven't played in a while I am not overly concerned.  A better system should be used for auging 2 handers though. Having to use another client or a NPC to do the combine is a flawed system.  I do applauded you in your attempt to troll the post though...maybe when you have more than 17 posts to your credit you will be a little better at trolling....have a good day.

not trolling. just alot of people (not saying you) who make a mistake then want it back. iv done the combines and lost armor. hell i turned in 20kaa crystals stacked and lost them. i learned moved on and got more. im just saying people who do then turn in wrong (in this case not removing epic) are at fault and they messed up and should just repeat it.

Or we could create a better system/script for this npc

Just saying

uh, it doesn't tell you to remove the augs 1st.
if it did, then fine yeah, user error.
but it doesn't.
it just says -I can help you with [2H augs]
you click that then it tells you to give him 2 type 22 augs.
you give them, then it says "ok [main hand] or [ranged]
you click main hand and if you have an EPIC aug in the epic slot POOOF goes your 2 Firestrikes..
which last time I checked, are very expensive, not just something you run thru again in half hour...

Augmentation sealer has been rewritten, it no longer zones the player when inserting augments into two handed or ranged weapons. It also no longer zones players when taking augments out. The augmentation sealer will also allow players to insert augments on top of epic augged weapons. Enjoy!

Woot!
