Here the system and usage of the B<new> jeweler skill is described. |
6 |
|
7 |
=head2 Where to get it? How to!? What?? |
8 |
|
9 |
You can learn the jeweler skill by reading a I<scroll of jewelers>. If |
10 |
you want to make rings and amulets you also have to find a I<jewelers |
11 |
workbench>. The easiest place to find that is in a I<Jewelers Workshop> which |
12 |
can be found in towns (for example in Scorn). |
13 |
|
14 |
=head2 Identifying jewelery |
15 |
|
16 |
The most basic function of the jeweler skill is identifying rings and |
17 |
amulets, the higher your jeweler level is the more and the better you can |
18 |
identify jewelery. |
19 |
|
20 |
You identify jewelery by standing above it or having it in your inventory |
21 |
and entering: |
22 |
|
23 |
use_skill jeweler |
24 |
|
25 |
You will see the information about the identified jewelery and will gain |
26 |
exp for the identified objects. |
27 |
|
28 |
=head2 Generating blank rings and amulets |
29 |
|
30 |
For this you need to find a I<jewelers workbench>. You can generate blank |
31 |
rings and amulets of adornment from B<large gold nuggets>, but you need |
32 |
at least B<10 large gold nuggets> for a ring or an amulet! ou can place |
33 |
multiples of 10 nuggets in the bench and such make multiple rings or |
34 |
amulets of adornment at once. |
35 |
|
36 |
So place 10 large gold nuggets in the bench and then enter: |
37 |
|
38 |
use_skill jeweler make ring |
39 |
|
40 |
Or if you want to make a blank amulet of adornment: |
41 |
|
42 |
use_skill jeweler make amulet |
43 |
|
44 |
=head2 Analyzing jewelery |
45 |
|
46 |
If you want to know what your chances are for crafting a specific ring or |
47 |
amulet place it in the workbench and enter: |
48 |
|
49 |
use_skill jeweler analyze |
50 |
|
51 |
You will get output like the following, which gives you a clue whether |
52 |
it's futile or not to try to make this ring at your current level in the |
53 |
jeweler skill: |
54 |
|
55 |
ring (str+1)(dex+2): Projected success rate: Way above your skill |
56 |
ring (resist electricity +22)(con-1): Projected success rate: Way above your skill |
57 |
|
58 |
=head2 Merging rings or amulets |
59 |
|
60 |
You can merge the abilities of two rings or amulets, or even between a |
61 |
ring and an amulet. For example: toss two rings in the workbench, and |
62 |
type: |
63 |
|
64 |
use_skill jeweler merge analyze |
65 |
|
66 |
And you will get a similar output as for C<use_skill jeweler analyze>, |
67 |
which tells you whether you have a chance. If you are confident enter this |
68 |
command to merge the jewelery: |
69 |
|
70 |
use_skill jeweler merge |
71 |
|
72 |
You either get the merged improved ring/amulet or a very bad ring/amulet. |
73 |
|
74 |
=head2 Improving rings and amulets |
75 |
|
76 |
Improving rings is a bit more complicated, but it generally follows this |
77 |
schema: You have to put N base items, which indicate your plan, into the |
78 |
workbench. For example two B<potions of strength> indicate that you want to |
79 |
improve a ring from (Str+0) to (Str+1). |
80 |
|
81 |
Then you just use your jeweler skill to calculate how many additional gems |
82 |
you need to fullfill that plan: |
83 |
|
84 |
use_skill jeweler |
85 |
|
86 |
You will get an output similar to this (here a B<ring (str+1)(dex+2)> and |
87 |
two B<wisdom potions> were placed in the workbench): |
88 |
|
89 |
You want to make a ring (wis+1)(str+1)(dex+2): Projected success rate: Slightly above 50:50 |
90 |
You recognize that you are short of: 200 times gem, 1600 times ruby |
91 |
|
92 |
Next you put 200 diamonds and 1600 rubies in the bench and try your luck |
93 |
with the same command. You either see: |
94 |
|
95 |
You succeed. |
96 |
|
97 |
And have a B<ring (Str+1)(Dex+2)(Wis+1)> in your workbench, or you see: |
98 |
|
99 |
You fail! |
100 |
|
101 |
And have a B<ring (Str-1)(Dex-2)(Wis-1)> in your workbench. |
102 |
|
103 |
If you succeed to make the ring, you will get more experience. The more |
104 |
difficult crafting a ring is, the more experience you get. |
