Item Augmentation

[firefury]

I hear a lot of talk about adding new items to the game, my suggestion would be to perhaps add some sort of space on each item, where you could add augments. I guess the augments would be considered rares, and have the same drop rate (even have super augments with super drop rates). This would allow some more customization to a build. Just off the top of my head, a +50 strength augment, or a +100 damage augment, or a +100 hp augment, things like that.

i dont know if the thread is still here fire, but that idea was suggested already as part of the discussion on what smithing should do when it eventually gets added. i know we did have a thread about it here at one time, i just dont know if it is still on the forum or if it got deleted

We already have weapons and armor that do that. Each piece of armor and every weapon has a HP or MP mod on it. Alot of time they have both. Remember that with weapons the # of the weapon gets added to total STR as well. Check out MB's page under information/items list. Its shows each rares stats. http://quest.weebl.nl/

Lexi, i think he/she is talking about adding extra STR/HP mods to them if you find a Rare/Super Rare that is a certain thing that you can add to weapons/Armor

Yeah i understand that. Was just stating that why add more to something that is already there. An idea is an idea though none the less

Why add more? I think it's obvious, it will make items better. Instead of adding completely new items, it was a suggestion to put a new spin on the already existing items. Just a little twist to the usual practice of adding new items into games.

Also, for people with the best supers out there, it would give them more reason to play, if they had a chance of improving their supers, as opposed to training just to get another level 8 that'll collect dust.
