Spells: Enchant Spells (Cultural Armor)

[pharmakos]

wouldn't be fair to the players to do anything with the existing armor

maybe if this was caught closer to kunark release, but the current kunark economy is already so bloated that i don't think these armors are breaking anything.

Imbued jewelry should be in game but isn't.

right, and that^ stuff shouldn't even be here yet.

cultural armor is era appropriate stuff. the jacinth sets wouldn't even have been that much more expensive.

1 Jacinth per CAST of enchant <insert metal>. It takes approximately 74 enchanted bricks to make a full set of armor. With Jacinths currently worth about 300p, that's an increased cost to the smith of 22,200p, not adjusted for failure chance. I don't even want to think about the sets that require blue diamonds or black sapphires.

Aye, the Human Qeynos stuff is barely worth the trouble without the Jacinth requirement, no real market except for occasional pieces at any price that's reasonable from the smith's perspective, I can't see anybody making it except at a severe loss once this gets patched. (LOL'ing everyday at people who think Essence of Sunlight actually worth anything on this server as it is.)

Although I dont mind the No drop idea for current sets of cultural Im not terribly fond of smiths stockpiling enchanted mats pre nerf in order to take advantage of price spikes post nerf.

What if current sets go no drop, and any stockpiled enchanted bars get removed but reimbursed for their production cost?

They will most likely revert any currently enchanted metals to the unenchanted version to nullify this.

That would work too. Probably easier to do.

i happily paid 14k for 5 pieces of electrum Enchanted Full Plate (i'm a dexterity/sv magic whore). would still have happily paid for it if i had to cover the cost of Jacinths too.

Lewellyn was tough to track down though! i really hope the devs don't make me get this stuff smithed again. he's the only human cultural smith i know of, and he plays pretty much the opposite times i do (he's euro)... took me like a month to catch him online the first time around (he doesn't use the forums so i couldn't just PM him)
