1 metaspell (1 spell slot), and 1 tech will get that weapon to Tier 4, which is crafted steel. Add more techs if you want more weapons to be crafted quality (which the bigger weapons can take several hundred ranks to master-craft with hi-steel). Bypassing 100s of ranks of Forging with 1 spell slot and 25 ranks in Forging doesn't seem like a steep penalty (or even a penalty).

It's a nod to the forging system, no more and no less. Just like Moon Mages can come up with T5 moonblades with only 25 ranks in Forging (50 without a hobby/career) invested.

Not complaining about the system. Complaining about the complaining of a system that only adds more for the guild.

<<All by itself, a tech will only get you to tier 3.
No it won't. In order to have the tech apply its effects you first need to know the metaspell Reinforced Infusions, which sets the minimum tier to 3 already just for knowing it (as do all of the metaspells.) I.e. a tech (or very rare metal which also requires the metaspell) will get you tier 4. Having both tech and very rare metal would make it tier 5.

It does go up with them.
Summoned crude stone scimitar is fairly/decent;y
Metaspell only and Metaspell and Tech stone scimitar is decently/decently
Guessing another jump maybe with rare ingot summon/tech/metaspell?
I've been playing with this and filling it in today some.

>>Tier 3 is storebought grade.
For what it's worth, this is my understanding of the tiers. The tier system seems to be a bit fuzzy so your mileage may vary. I'm also referencing only base stats, not the way scripts and other fun stuff bump up tiers. I also am sure that GM-tools can allow some variety in these, but so far I've pretty much only seen GMs produce stuff at 5 density.
Tier 2 is what [most] stores from 2.0 sell. Crossing broadsword quality stuff. If you want to put it in 3.0 terms, imagine what something with 80 hardness (lowsteel) has.
Tier 3 is 5 density midsteel, aka 85 hardness. AFAIK, regular run of the mill festival shops can sell T3 items without any crazy markup/limited editions/etc (unless that's what the GM wants, of course). This is what they mean by Tier 3 being "normal shops".
Tier 4 is 5 density highsteel, aka 90 hardness (only without the bad durability of highsteel). Some festival shops sell this stuff, but it's expensive/limited edition/etc.
Tier 5 is 5 density rare-metal, aka 95 hardness. Fancier quest drops and quest end prizes with a script attached have stats that are T5 (the quest end prize having some extra script is what makes it T6 though)
Tier 6 is 5 density ultra-rare metal. 99 hardness. Your tyrium/vardites, stat-wise.
Uzmam! The Chairman will NOT be pleased to know you're trying to build outside of approved zones. I'd hate for you to be charged the taxes needed to have this place re-zoned. Head for the manor if you're feeling creative.

Oh, right, of course... but this still leaves you with something completely mundane. Like, "People literally hand out weapons of this grade to new players," mundane. So you're technically correct, but it's unimportant by any practical measure with respect to balance, and still makes it very silly to wring one's hands over "just" 25 ranks.

Re: Elemental weapon questions... on 03/23/2015 06:48 PM CDT
I'm looking at this probably more from the perspective of nothing abilities wise to look forward to anymore. So TO ME, agree or not, setting the bar so low as a basic tech of 25 ranks to start making "better then regular summoned crude stone weapons" is a waste and a saturation of abilities you gain right from the jump off in most guilds.
Awesome that all War Mages can start right out the gate using these, but basically you can top them out for say all Edged weapons in about 50-100 ranks of forging and some 1 spell slot meta spells (circles 1-50 we get a slot per circle) then add some rare materials and you're done. This doesn't add anything but less chance of lowering quality of ingots when summoned.
I love the release been playing with it for a large part of my day. I just wish they'd leave some parts harder to attain so the older players had stuff to work on.

fiery greatsword Fire damage of doom - rawr!!!!
It teaches okay, not the best, but better than some methods.
Random questions since I have preview spells:
So in order to shape you need aether/expansive infusions? Otherwise you only get your primary (up to quaternary or quinary? No bow love) weapon, and its turn options?
-Can the rare metal be cut? Like 1/3 trash or even a true alloy; or does it have to be pure 100% that material(not quality)
-Can earth be an alternative to stone?
-Fiery works most of the time normally fire defaults to my firecat lighter.
-had issues making LE/SE(tried both - HE worked fine) weapons from elemental forms, even using 'icy bola' or 'fiery greatsword' to make sure it wasn't tapping something else
-so do they last forever? Assuming it's not on the ground for 10 seconds? Or intentionally breaks?

<<So in order to shape you need aether/expansive infusions? Otherwise you only get your primary (up to quaternary or quinary? No bow love) weapon, and its turn options?
In order to SHAPE you just need aether infusions. If you don't have this metaspell you can only create your highest melee or thrown weapon and its TURN variation. In both cases the weapons created will be either a tier 2 weapon if you know no metaspells at all, or tier 3 if you know any other metaspell. If you know the earth infusion then you can extend this to 4th or 5th tier.
Earth infusions gives you the ability to improve the tier of the weapon via weaponsmithing techniques and very rare metal ingots. This is the only way to reach tier 4 and tier 5 weapons. If you don't know the aether infusion then this will only apply to your highest melee or thrown weapon and its TURN variation.

>Can the rare metal be cut?
I am intentionally not revealing how the rare metal stuff works. This is the only PAFO portion of the system, and I like it that way.
>Can earth be an alternative to stone?
Yes... As soon as I get rid of some of the more pressing bugs. Remind me if this hasn't happened in a week or two.
>had issues making LE/SE(tried both - HE worked fine) weapons from elemental forms, even using 'icy bola' or 'fiery greatsword' to make sure it wasn't tapping something else
One of those more pressing bugs is the parsing issue(s). I recently put something in that should help with this.
>so do they last forever? Assuming it's not on the ground for 10 seconds? Or intentionally breaks?
Currently, yes. This is subject to change.
>you can only create your highest melee or thrown weapon
Your highest melee weapon. All thrown templates require Expansive Infusions, even if they are higher than all melee weapons.
> I just wish they'd leave some parts harder to attain so the older players had stuff to work on.
This was intentionally designed as a low-level way to train Summoning. I hated the fact that the only way to train it from first circle was to fill a pool you can't use.

Uuh, along the lines of this, I was somewhat shocked to see someone fill in the adjective for a lightning weapon as 'shocking.' Is that for real? If so it should probably be some less surprising word like arcing.

Hey gang, I am sorry to clog the queue here, but I am at a loss as to how all this works.
I was able to summon a crude stone scimitar.
My goal is to be able to summon Tier 5 scimitars and quarterstaves.
I see mention of rare metals, forging skills, and metaspells, but not sure how they all come together to get me to my goals.
Assuming I only want forging as a hobby, not a career, how can I go about reaching my goal - I realize there's a ton of work ahead. Can someone PM me on what I need to do? I am mostly confused by which forging techniques I'll need and what constitutes a rare metal.
Gah - so much to learn since I returned to this game.

Just in case you all didn't try it out. Mark of Arhat reacts to the weapons

< Driving in with naturally fluid movements, you swing an icy broadsword at a Dragon Priest zealot. A Dragon Priest zealot badly fails to block with a dark steel lata'oloh with an curved oak hilt.
The broadsword lands a hard (6/23) hit to the zealot's chest.
[You're winded, adeptly balanced and overwhelming opponent.]

Most of what you want to know is here: https://elanthipedia.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Elemental_weapon
As for crafting... You don't need a career or hobby in weaponsmithing in order to create higher tier elemental weapons. You just need skill in Forging which is what grants techniques. That said, if you want to create tier 5 weapons of every kind you'll need a total of 11 weaponsmithing techniques which would take 700 ranks. A career or hobby gives you additional bonus techniques above and beyond the base ones from skill, so you could get there faster than that if willing to spend one of your permanent career or hobby choices on it. If you went with a career or a hobby you could get all eleven as early as 200 ranks.
If you don't want to create tier 5 weapons of all of the types, only the ones you use regularly then you'll need to figure out which techniques you need for those weapons and how many slots you'll need.
Techniques needed: https://elanthipedia.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Elemental_weapon#Templates in the table under 'W/S Tech'

Very extreme fire on my greatsword - so the slice became the fire damage (basically)
Bola was no/no/no and like somewhat mod fire- so like throwing an actual fireball
It was similar in Test awhile back as far as the damage swaps.

<<EARTH and EARTHEN are now alternatives to STONE.
How about making SHOCKING be an option for ELECTRIC to match the name of the infusion.

The maul and heavy sledgehammer 2HB have the same appraisals since they use the same weapon template. Should there be another option? all the other skills are different enough, either weight, balance or damage attributes.
Also I did something weird - again...
so... summon weapon 2hb, turn maul, shape maul to icy/fiery/etc, and it keeps the stone adjective.
fiery stone heavy sledgehammer, icy stone, electric stone... seems to be just with sledgehammers, and just with the stone versions. Like the maul was fine, greatsword was fine, or if I turned a fiery/icy/electric sword into a maul then turned it, it didn't have the stone adjective.
turning it into a maul and back fixees it and makes the stone part go away.
Obviously the game is broken and we're all doomed.

Long known for its symbiotic relationship with natural mineral deposits, the unique sample of alerce used to craft this weapon appears to have incorporated veins of cambrinth.

As you draw back the string of your alerce shortbow, you feel a tugging sensation before an incandescent ethereal mist coalesces into a golden arrow, loading the weapon!
Your small shield makes the task more difficult.
Roundtime: 4 sec.
> recall short
The alerce shortbow is imbued with special properties created by Lograr, renowned Gnome enchanter. The distinguished artisan derived inspiration for many of his mystical incantations from observations of natural phenomena in the surrounding environment during his many expeditions.
There is no documentation on what inspired Lograr to develop the energy bow. Instead, only rumors have filtered down through history. One verbal account is that Lograr saw a falling star and was inspired to create a weapon based on its appearance. Other accounts mention silver fish darting through a stream and another fireworks.
Regardless of the origin of his idea, Lograr's enchanting did have a side effect. Any enchanting always drained energy of some sort from the weapon's user. Lograr was never able to prevent this and was even remarked to have said that it was only logical that the weapon functioned in that manner. However, through much experimenting, we was able to direct the type of energy drained and created versions of the weapon for each type of drained energy.

Re: Elemental weapon questions... on 03/27/2015 01:16 PM CDT
I'm confused, Are those bows available in Prime? I had no idea they even existed. Do they have long and composite versions as well?
damn, something else to hunt down.

Bow is from last HE auction. So there should be one in Prime. I bought it over Plat side. There is a crossbow that goes off spirit too. Only 2 weapons I know of like them. https://elanthipedia.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Hollow_Eve_Festival_414_Auction Prime side Lukretia bought it.

Re: Elemental weapon questions... on 03/28/2015 12:37 PM CDT
Might just be nitpicking. But is it possible to add in an adjective or something to the stone versions so it shows what 'tier' or techs/spells/ingot in play?
For instance
tier 2 -Crude stone xxxxxx
tier 3 -stone xxxxxx
tier 4 -exceptional stone xxxxxx
tier 4 -outstanding stone xxxxxx
tier 5 -masterfully-crafted stone xxxxxx
These words just taken from the crafting levels chart I'm sure someone with more creativity come up with better. Unless this would make the elemental forms go crazy.
