Hi all! Ep 216 is up! What lowbie gear have you crafted lately under the new U9 system? How many words can you think of that rhyme with druid? How do you evaluate 6 ÷ 2 ( 1 + 2 ) ? I smell like a half-elf! And if GreenSteel wasn't borked, what GS item would you craft? Why are there no druids? Why no gnomes? Remember, kobolds always hates you!

Great Show guys. Fun segments this week.

I agree on the Crafting Leveling Strategy. Most XP returned for Least Resources used, including recepies that you have a chance to fail at. So far I have tried to stay away from anything below 70-75% sucess, unless I really want to craft that shard. Crafting level 34/24/25 so far. At this level I'm starting to see shards that I will use.

Epic OOB advise: Have Fire Shield available, either from UMDing a scroll, clickie(Cloak of Ice), or a guard(Bracers of the Glacier). Or the Collectable cloak from Whisperdoom(Widow Weave Cloak - Web Immunity). No more getting Webbed!

Thats all for now.

YAY!...Learned something new for Crafting!

You can buy junk items from General/Weapon/Armor Vendors, such as in the Harbor or Marketplace. Use the Disjunction Material on them to make them Craftable. Craft a useless shard onto it, that you'll never use otherwise. Then deconstruct the effect you just put onto it to get a little bit of a return on the matts you spent to make the shard in the first place. Buying a big stack of "Dust of Disjunction" isn't too expensive. Neither are the blank items that you would need to buy. So it's pretty inexpensive overall.

At least it's a way to get rid of all the shards you're never going to use right?

~Nim

**Warning!**
This process can be extremely time consuming. (but totally worth it)


*EDIT*
...Ugg...
Purchased items from House K Armor Vendors or House D Weapon Vendors can't be Deconstructed.
House K Light Armor Vendor inside "Cold-Fired Armory" is the only place I was able to find Purchasable Docents. Sadly after spending 3k plat on 25 of them I return to the Crafting Devise to get an Error message that reads:

"(Error): Only equipment originally found as treasure or received as rewards is craftable. (Named items and vendor purchased items are not craftable.)"

I did not however recieve this message from items purchased from the Weapon/Armor Vendors in the Harbor, or Items purchased from the General Vendor in the Marketplace.The only two items I've tested so far are Clubs(purchase value of 1gp) and Robes(purchase value of 1pp).

I should have known this, but since I didn't catch it initially I thought I'd pass this bit around as well: The armor type property stays on the armor when disjuncted to make it craftable. So, Lesser Fire Guard Mithril Full Plate of Fire Resistance will be Mithril Full Plate when it's made craftable. Now, I didn't get mithril, but I did do this on Adamantine Full Plate. Might be worth crafting some low-level property Adamantine FP!

Liked the show. Another fine podcast.

Have to admit that when the poetry started I thought 'Oh crud, not crappy beatnik babble', however its now one of my favourite parts of the show.

As for Druids, who cares? We want Kobold PC's!

Kobold has for rule! B)

@SD Passive DR sources do not stack with other Passive DR sources. Only highest value of your Active DR (shield blocking) stacks with the highest value of your Passive DR (from items, enhancements, ironskin chant etc -- whatever is higher.)

Sounds like the fact those are working is a bug then. Too bad since it would actually bring some balance to making all those shards.
