[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Questions about gearcrafting and trinkets

	I have returned recently (one more time, yeah) to the game and I see that there are these new trinkets which can be imbued with the use of gearcrafting. I have read the information on the wiki and I am still left with some questions. It appears that the loot generated trinkets also carry spells on their own. - Do trinkets come with spells as any other loot-generated item (majors, minors, regular spells, etc?), or there's something special about the spells they can drop with? - Does imbuing change the activation difficulty of a trinket? - What is a good combination of spells for a PvM character? Is it different for different classes? I think some combination of damage bonus, damage reduction and health increase is good - do all of these stack with all other existing spells or they overlap with something? Which of the imbues make the most difference? - It appears that the right sequence to get a trinket is to find one with useful innate spells (an epic or major at the minimum, I'd figure), do a major upgrade and if it succeeds, apply the two other upgrades. Did I miss something important? -----signature----- Dhirt ibn Bhich on TD, now resting in eternal peace

Did I miss something important? That is a good way to go, but you could wait a whil until you get that perfect piece. A faster way to get an upgrade out of a trinket is to get a plain junk one (preferably of low craft) and put a major upgrade on it, then the other 2. At least you'll have some additional stats until you get a better base trinket. -----signature----- I am a drifter going my way I am the dream of the day http://arnievanwakeren.livejournal.com/ - Travel Blog through the Western USA
