[edit] INTRODUCTION TO CRAFTING AND THE ELDRITCH RITUALS

Following is a guide and a compilation of recipes and information for the new "Crafting" system I am not claiming ownership or creation of any of their information but am just providing a compiling service

INTRODUCTION

If you want the full introduction to the system please visit this link Turbine - "An Official Beginners Guide to The Eldritch Device"

Firstly there are Two types of Eldritch Device. The first is the Stone of Change found near the marketplace bank in Stormreach. The Second are the Raid Loot Crafting Altars, including the Altar of Fecundity under Meridia, the Altar of Invasion in the first part of the Shroud Raid, The Altar of Subjugation in the thrd part of the raid and the Altar of Devasation in the fith part (and end) of the Raid.

The Sonte of Change - can be used to convert some items (eg 10 Flawed Siberys shards to Imperfect Siberys Shards) and in "Rituals" such as the Adamintine Ritual to improve the Hardness and Durability of items and weapons. Recipes for the stone of change can be found several paragraphs down.

Raid Loot Crafting Altars - "There are several steps to creating your own loot and upgrading that item, so let’s see how it works." Everything starts with ingrdients. Find basic (Tier 1) ingredients and using the recipes below, upgrade them to Tier 2 igredients and then use them to make or upgrade a Green Steel Item. Recipes are not physical items you find in the game, they’re simply known combinations of ingredients that successfully produce another item or ingredient.

The Green Steel Item upgrade is part of the new raid loot mechanism so you need to be doing the Shroud Raid for many of the ingredients particularly after the manufacture of . ie. you find ingredients, make your green steel item, then upgrade the item (up to 3 times ?) to become more powerful.

There are several posts at the top of this thread that contain important information and I have linked to them as follows..or just scroll down the first few posts. You can also try the Wiki which (say that 5 times fast) contains a lot of this information in a manner/layout not possible in the forums.

[edit] STONE OF CHANGE

There is a "Stone of Change" (The Marketplace, Near the Bank) that can upgrade existing items (Ie not part of the green steel "Raid" loot)

Currently you can do several things to items on the stones of change as follows:

Binding/Attuning Ritual I

Benefit: Binds / Attunes items so they no longer take permanent damage and can have rituals (Like the Adamantine Ritual placed on them) but it can no longer be traded.

There is currently a bug where ML0 items require 400 Shards to Bind/Attune (400 = Lvl 20 item)

Materials: item requires (minimum level of item ^ 2) Khyber Dragonshard Fragments eg Level 12 item need 144 Khyber Dragonshard Fragments**

"It is suspected that once the scholars fully understand the powers of the device, we’ll even be able to change effects on existing items as well as shatter shards into fragments, but these are dangerous powers which must be studied further, before we can attempt such deeds."

[edit] RAID LOOT CRAFTING ALTARS

The Raid Loot system for the Shroud raid is a new crafting mechanism that will be expanded on with each new module. There are 4 altars used for different stages of the crafting process. Fecundity (Under Meridia), Invasion (End of Shroud Part 1), Subjugation (End of Shroud Part 3), Devastation (End of Shroud Part 5)

Altar of Fecundity - You gain access to this altar after completing all 5 pre-raid quests. This atar lets you make special ingredients (Tier 2) using ingredients found in The Veil and pre-raid quests. The Tier 2 ingredients can be used to make Green Steel Weapons or Items that form the basis for upgrading during the Shroud Raid.
Wielding or wearing the Green Steel Item binds it to your Character.

Altar of Invasion - You gain access to this altar after completing part 1 of the Shroud raid. This atar lets you make special ingredients (Tier 2) using ingredients found in The Shoud Part 1 Left Hand Chest (small ingredients). The Tier 2 Invasion ingredients can be used to upgrade your Green Steel Weapons or Items to the First/Tier 1/Small upgrade. Upgrading your Green Steel Item or Weapon binds it to your character.

Altar of Subjugation - You gain access to this altar after completing part 3 of the Shroud raid. This atar lets you make special ingredients (Tier 2) using ingredients found in The Shoud Part 2 and 3 Chests (medium ingredients). The Tier 2 Subjugation ingredients can be used to upgrade your Green Steel Weapons or Items (Which must have already had the first upgrade applied) to the Second/Tier 2/Medium upgrade.

Altar of Devastation - You gain access to this altar after completing part 5 of the Shroud raid. This atar lets you make special ingredients (Tier 2) using ingredients found in The Shoud Part 4 and 5 Chests (large ingredients). The Tier 2 Devatastation ingredients can be used to upgrade your Green Steel Weapons or Items (Which must have already had the first and second upgrade applied) to the Third/Tier 3/Large upgrade.

[edit] Altar of Fecundity - Green Steel Item & Weapon Manufacture

This altar is in Meridia, Under the Tavern. You gain access once completeing the 5 pre-raid quests and talking to Ve?????. Ve??????? will give you some componenets for a trial run...Dirt, xxxx, xxxx, xxxxx, xxx energy orb. Put these into the Altar of Fecundity and Mix them and take the resultant item back to Ve???. It's a good idea to ensure you have all your ingredients in your ingredient bag before talking to her so you dont get the trial ingredients mixed up. The trial ingredients are just part of the process and dont give you anything useful except to progress the mini quest to gain access to the raid.

You will hopefully have found the following ingredients during your Veil and Veil Adventure Questing.

Fecundity Raw Ingredients :
Bitterscrub (Fungus) - Chipmunk (Funk) - Glistening (Pebble) - Green Briar (Twigs) - Lammanian Lily (Petals) - Locus (Husk).

Collect these RAW ingredients to make your "Fecundity" manufactured ingredients that are used for making your Green Steel Item. Remember you can have multiple Green Steel Items but you will need a signet stone (created from the 5 pre-raid stones) for each green item you make.

[edit] Tier 2 Ingredients

RAW "Fecundity" ingredients can be combined to make "Tier 2" or Manufactured Ingredients using an Ebberon Energy Orb purchased from the vendor next to the altar.

• There is no difference to the item if you use either recipe where 2 exist for the ingredient.

[edit] Green Steel Item and Weapon Recipes

The Fecundity Manufactured ingredients can be combined to create Green Steel Blanks (weapons and Equipment) for upgrade in the Raid. All of the Green Steel Blanks require a Shavarath Signet Stone, created using the five bound stones gained from the end chest in the pre-raids

Steps to creation of Green Steel Item:

a) Create Tier 2 Ingredients Required (You will need 3 as per the chart below)

b) Comvert Shavarath Stones into a Signet stone in the Altar of Fecundity (all 5 Stones and Mix)

c) Combine 3 Tier 1 ingredients, Signet Stone and Enrgy Orb...Press "Mix Magically"

The Green Steel Blank Recipe’s are powered by an Ebberon (Energy Orb) (or a Splintered Horn for Mod 7 Recipes) which can be purchased at the altar. You will need a Signet stone for each Item / Weapon you wish to create.

[edit] Green Steel Weapons

Green Steel Weapons are higher damage than normal.

[edit] Green Steel Equipment

There is a limitation on Green Steel Weave Equipment items that you cannot wear more than 1 at a time or you will receive a negative effect unless they are cleansed. An Essence of Clensing can be taken as your 20th Shroud completeion reward. (Be prepared to give up a +3 tome option though)

More information on Cleansing an item:

A bound cleansing stone is guaranteed on each 20th (multiple) reward list (as the last item) the cleansing stone can be applied at the Devestation (part 5 of shroud) altar to any greenweave/steel equipment regardless of its current upgraded level. cleansing an unbound greensteel/weave item does not currently bind it... so it can be cleansed by one character and then mailed/transferred.

[edit] The SHROUD and Altars of "Invasion", "Subjugation", and "Devastation"

The next set of ingredients and altars are found in The Shroud. Each section of the raid ends with a chest and at the end of sections 1,3,5 you can upgrade your green steel item. Each section corresponds to a particular altar and set of componets for that altar.
The atars are Invasion, Subjugation and Devastaion respectively and the ingredients used in each altar are small, medium and large versions of the same components. The recipe's for each Altar Tier 2 / Manufactured ingredients is the same, except for the size/version of the raw ingredient. Each Item/Weapon upgrade requires a Shard of Power (Diferent version for each Altar) which binds when you pick it up from the chest.

Ingredeints found during the raid are as follows: Devil (Scales), Gnawed (Bones), Twisted (Shrapnel), Glowing (Arrow)heads, Length of Infernal (Chain), Sulfurous (Stone), Splintered (Horn), Shard of Power, Energy Cell, Depleted Energy Cell. The Splintered Horn is currently an unused component possibly for future use.

Altar of Invasion – "This item is humming like the Altar of Invasion"
This altar is at the end of the first part of the shroud raid. There are 2 chests at the end of this stage. The left chest may contain RAW "small" ingredients. This is the only place to find small components for the first stage of crafting your green steel item. You will need to have enough low energy orbs to craft items you want at this altar as they cannot be purchased until the 3rd part of the raid (but may be found in the chest).

Altar of Subjugation – "This item is humming like the Altar of Subjugation"
This altar is at the end of the third part of the shroud raid. There are 2 chests at the end of the second stage and up to 4 chests at the end of the third stage. These chest may contain RAW "medium" ingredients. You will need to have enough Medium energy cells to craft items and ingredients you require at this altar as you can only purchase depleted Medium energy cells from the vendor. Depleted Energy Cells can be upgraded in the altar with a spare weapon (melee) of rating +6 to +10 which is destroyed on upgrade.

Altar of Devastation – "This item is humming like the Altar of Devastation"
This altar is at the end of the fith part of the shroud raid. There are 2 chests at the end of thie fourth stage and 2 chests at the end of the fifth (and final stage). These chest may contain RAW "Large" ingredients. You will need to have enough Large energy cells to craft items and ingredients you require at this altar as you can only purchase depleted Medium energy cells from the vendor at part three (Subjugation Altar). Depleted Energy Cells can be upgraded in the altar with a spare weapon (melee) of rating +6 to +10 which is destroyed on upgrade.

Raid Tier 2 Manufactured Ingredients The Tier 2 Raid Ingredient Recipies are the same for each Raid Altar, Only the name of the Tier 2 ingredients changes to indicate a more superior version (see naming chart below) and the Tier 1 ingredients are rated as Small (Invasion), Medium (Subgujation), Large (Devastation)

Once you have chsen your upgrade path and created the 3 Tier 2 ingredients (above) required. You can imbue a shard of power with the 3 ingredients and a power cell. You then need to upgrade your item with the imbued shard and another energy cell.

Thanks to Willphase and his guild (and the whole community) it has been determined that a special upgrade can be performed at the third altar using 2 imbued shards of power. This discussion can be found here.

If you have chosen a mixed focus on the first 2 upgrades (eg. Positive and Acid = Mineral I Item) you can then mix an Acid imbued shard and a Positive imbued Shard and a Large Energy Cells to greate a Mineral II Imbued shard that allows the Tier 3 upgrade to take on a special bonus feature. There is a chart under the Tier 3 Upgrades identifying the combinations and recipes.

Note: 2 shards are not requied if you choose a single focus upgrade path eg Positive + Positive + Positive to gain a special Tier 3 bonus.

You will only gain 1 Tier 3 normal effect from dual shard upgrades. One effect will dominate based on the "Dominant Focus" chart below the tier 3 specail bonuses below.

[edit] Imbued Shard of Power Formulation

At Each Altar You Can Upgrade Your Green Steel Item / Weapon

For Each Upgrade Tier you will need to:

• Create the 3 ingredients for the required effect.
• Imbue the Shard of Power with the 3 x Tier 2 Ingredients and and Energy Orb
• Combine the Imbued Shard of Power, Energy Orb and Greensteel Item / Weapon for the upgrade
• At Tier 3, If you have taken a Mixed Foci upgrade path you can add 2 imbued shards of power to the item for a specai effect.

[edit] Altar of Invasion - Tier 1 / Small Upgrade

When you make the first (small) upgrade it is granted an "affinity" which will effect the items powers when combined with the next tier (medium)The Affinity Property granted to items is equal to the focus ( Fire,  Water,  Air, Earth, Positive,  Negative) used in the upgrade. Affinities combine at the second Tier upgrade to grant a bonus effect.

^Indicates the bonus stacks with similar bonuses on other tier upgrades
"Insight Bonus does not Stack with other Tier Insight Bonus or Parry on weapons
*Regeneration does not stack with other Tier Regeneration or Regen from other items
*Regeneration requires Warforged to have 100% Bonus to Healing to work (Healers Frient, Finger Necklace etc.)

[edit] Altar of Subjugation - Tier 2 / Medium Upgrade

When you make the second (medium) upgrade it is granted an "Aspect" which provides a special bonsu and determine the requirments for the thierd Tier special effect. The Aspect Property granted to items is created due to the combination of the two focuses used so far in the upgrade. ( Fire,  Water,  Air, Earth, Positive,  Negative) Aspect Effects are listed below the second tier upgrade powers.

^^Elementa Burst (Cold, Fire, Acid, Lightning) - 1d6 on hit + on Crit 1d10 + 1d10 per crit X above 2
^^Energy Burst (Good, Evil) - 1d6 on hit + on Crit 3d6 + 1d6 per crit X above 2
^Indicates the bonus stacks with similar bonuses on other tier upgrades "Insight Bonus does not Stack with other Tier Insight Bonus or Parry on weapons
*Regeneration does not stack with other Tier Regeneration or Regen from other items
*Regeneration requires Warforged to have 100% Bonus to Healing to work (Healers Frient, Finger Necklace etc.)

[edit] Tier 2 / Medium Aspect Bonus Effect

Upgrade order of focus is not important in granting Aspect Bonus Effect

Order of the foci used to get the effect does not matter.

[edit] Altar of Devastation - Tier 3 / Large Upgrade

When you make the third (large) upgrade it MAY be granted an Sepcial Bonus Effect. All items created at tier 2 can gain a special effect using the right focus combinations for the final upgrade. Single Foci Upgrades are the easiest, just pick the same Focus for your third upgrade. Mixed Foci upgrades are a little more tricky and can yield a more powerful bonus. Mixed Foci upgrades require 2 shards of power to be imbued and combined to creat a "super shard" which is then combined with the item. Special Bonus Effects are listed below the third tier upgrade powers.

~Elemental Blast (Fire, Ice, Shock, Acid): 1d10 per crit, +1d10 per crit X + 4d6 on a nautral 20 + confirm
~Energy Blast (Positive & Negative) : 3d6 per crit, +d6 per crit X above x2 + 4d6 on a nautral 20 + confirm
^Indicates the bonus stacks with similar bonuses on other tier upgrades
"Insight Bonus does not Stack with other Tier Insight Bonus or Parry on weapons
*Regeneration does not stack with other Tier Regeneration or Regen from other items
*Regeneration requires Warforged to have 100% Bonus to Healing to work (Healers Frient, Finger Necklace etc.)

[edit] Tier 3 Large Upgrade Affinity / Aspect Bonus

If you have made a tier 2 item wit hte first 2 upgrades with the same focus there is only 1 upgrade path to gain the specil tier 3 bonus. Which is using the same foci again.

NOTE: Special effects seem to occur about 1% of the time.
* Earth Bonus on item is not shown, possbile bug, but good guard damage is occuring in combat log.
# Possible Bug, Should not be Guard (ie on being hit) effect on weapon.

Combined Focus Aspect 3rd Tier Upgrades

To gain the special bonus for Tier 3 Combined Focus Upgrades require you to Imbue 2 Shards of power, combine them then use the resultant supershard to combine with the weapon. Only 1 Tier 3 Effect will "dominate" in the super shard. I have shown the dominant foci as the first foci listed in the shard combination.

Important Note: You must use the same Gem and Essence in the Supershard to cain the bonus effect on your weapon or item. Steps to creat the super shard.

• Add Essence, Gem and Foci to a supreme shard of power with Large energy cell to create the first shard.
• Add Essence, Gem and Foci to a supreme shard of power with Large energy cell to create the second shard.
• Add the two imbued shards (order does not matter) and a large energy cell and mix to create the super shard
• The resultant shard description will show the dominant foci and combination aspect name, not the name of the final upgrade. (e.g. the Earth & positive Supershard will be shown as Mineral II)
• Add the supershard to your tier 2 weapon and a large energy cell and Mix....

Only combinations on this table work. Do not add a different supershard than listed to your Tier 2 item unles you wish to waste the 12 ingredients.
