Updates 2022 April

Tinkering has been updated to account for the return of parties, and to bring several items back into balance after they were impacted by the changes made in January (mostly buffs).

New Mechanics

Hexed Condition

Updates 2022 April: Added this page to the wiki. It references previously existing hexes from fragile traps, and newly defined hexed items.

Hexed Items

Updates 2022 April: Added this page to the wiki. It standardizes the rules for cursed items both existing and future ones.

Plague Condition

Updates 2022 April: Added this page to the wiki. Plagues have happened in game in the past, now they have common rules on how they work and are cured.

Runes

Updates 2022 April: Added this page to the wiki. Runes are a way of giving out loot without the game providing a prop.

Looting Items

Updates 2022 April: The number system is now alphanumeric instead of just numbers. Added the definitions for the letters. Quest items are a new type of item that have feb feast properties regarding lootability but are owned by the Logistics/ Plot.

Alchemy

Grounding Wire

Updates 2022 January Supplemental: Under discussion for some light changes to prop requirements.

Updates 2022 April: This alchemy item has been replaced with Warding Amalgam in alchemy and Grounding Wire in Tinkering.

Lycanthropy Safeguard

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the system.

Warding Amalgam

Updates 2022 April: Changed the alchemical item grounding wire into this item which is functionally the same (though it cannot be reused if not triggered). There is also a new tinkering item that is a reusable grounding wire that uses the ankle slot.

Crafting

Ornamenting Craft Point Costs

Updates 2022 April: Removed +2 crafting points as a craftable option (2 craft points don't really accomplish anything and were creating confusion, apparently). Existing items (if there are any) are unaffected by this change.

Epic Items

Updates 2022 January: Removed extra immunity as a epic crafting option.

Rituals

Rituals

Updates 2022 April: Removed an obscure rule that required all rituals to have 1 ritual candle per type of component used. Rituals state the number of candles they need, whatever it may be.

Alchemical Ascension

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the system.

Harmony

Updates 2022 April: Added that you gain synchronize immediately when casting the ritual.

Polyglot

Updates 2022 April: Changed number of components required, now requires 2 fewer components (2 total). Added Diabolic to the list of languages a character can speak. Specified that this allows for speaking and understanding all common and uncommon languages.

Remedy

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the system. It replaces Mortal Jeopardy as the basic restoration ritual.

Ritual Components

Dozens of special ritual components got their own pages to describe what the items are meant to represent and to call out that players shouldn't make these specific things for themselves.

Spells

Aura of Reflection

Updates 2022 January: Changed to 4 charges. No longer reflects, now prevents and creates tag bags that throw for the same call. Also removed the language about melee attacks with magic calls because magic calls are always spells now.

Updates 2022 April: Clarified that reap spirit counts as an offensive spell and is stopped by Aura of Reflection but does not generate a tag bag.

Diagnosis

Updates 2022 April: Added that Diagnosis reveals intended cures for any conditions found.

Tinkering Items

Anvil of Mend Armor

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 5/gd to 10/ event uses

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same.

Basin of Purify Spirit

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 3/gd to 6/event

Updates 2022 April: This is specifically used by an adventuring party again. Number of uses is the same but only party members can use it.

Bells

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the Tinkering 0 items

Candles

Updates 2022 April: Added this page to the wiki.

Carpet of Dissipate

Updates 2022 April: Changed to a party item. Characters can now only activate this once every 10 minutes (the duration of a single cast of dissipate).

Containers

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the tinkering 0 list.

Elven Steel Dish

Updates 2022 April: This item is no longer craftable. Lore regarding what Elven Steel is makes the idea of spending it to make dishes fairly ridiculous, also ingested poisons are rarely used enough an easily accessible hard counter for it isn't really necessary. Existing dishes are unaffected by this change.

Font of Insight

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 5/gd to 10/event uses

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same.

Gems

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the Tinkering 0 items

Grounding Stone

Updates 2022 April: Added that this can only be activated by a party member of the owner.

Music Box of Sanctuary

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 3 uses/ gd to 6/ event.

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same. Specified that the sanctuary effect lasts as long as the music continues to play.

Plating Pool

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 3 uses per game day to 6/ event.

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same. Reduced from a level 5 tinkering item to level 4 to account for the reduction in duration on the Enchant Weapon spell.

Shells

Updates 2022 April: Added this item to the Tinkering 0 items

Soothing Masterpiece

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 6 uses per game day to 12 per event.

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same.

Talisman of Warding

Updates 2022 April: Changed to a level 4 item. Now affects: Wraiths, Banshees and Poltergeists specifically instead of "spirits" as the definition of spirits changed some time ago and this item wasn't properly updated to match it.

Veil of Warding

Updates 2022 January: Changed from 3 uses per gd, to 6/ event.

Updates 2022 April: Changed back to a party item. Number of uses remains the same. When sanctify and unhallow were changed from a short duration spell to a game day long ritual this was to make the ritual worth casting. This item was effectively changed to match the ritual even though it was originally a shorter duration. It has been changed to last 10 minutes to reflect its original intent and to keep the ritual a superior version of the effect to balance for the recurring cost (components) of using the ritual. Level was also changed because these are now much rarer calls as non-spells.

Trap Tags

Scattershot Trap

Updates 2022 January: Added this item to the system.

Updates 2022 April: Changed to 1 damage 2 (from 5) times, because 5 times was more powerful than 4 slay.
