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