Hello, request here. Can you please change the wording for enhancives in loresinging? As it is right now, it is either 'a bonus to an x' or "a bonus to an x bonus.' It is highly misleading.
Current design:
The bracer resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus to Agility.
It provides a bonus to Perception Bonus.
It provides a bonus to Mana Recovery.
It provides a bonus to Blunt Weapons Ranks.
It provides a bonus to Blunt Weapons Bonus.
You think that you could probably find out something more about the pendant's enhancive properties if you tried.
The bracer resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus of 8 to Agility.
It provides a bonus of 5 to Perception Bonus.
It provides a bonus of 2 to Mana Recovery.
It provides a bonus of 1 to Blunt Weapons Ranks.
It provides a bonus of 6 to Blunt Weapons Bonus.
The bracer looks to have a lot of charges remaining.
Please change the first word from BONUS to INCREASE, IMPROVEMENT, or ENHANCEMENT.
Example in action:
The bracer resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides an enhancement to Agility.
It provides an enhancement to Perception Bonus.
It provides an enhancement to Mana Recovery.
It provides an enhancement to Blunt Weapons Ranks.
It provides an enhancement to Blunt Weapons Bonus.

Thank you.
And while we're talking about clearing things up in loresongs...
Ever since last year when Loresongs got the "Update" we sometimes get a message about blurry unknown spell or something close to that on blank imbeddibles. :(
The other thing I noticed after that was that faced with multiple enhancements on gear (Hello, Duskruin...) there are now times all you can do is GUESS which one is the permanent and which is the temporary one.
"It's PROBABLY the weighting that is temporary and the Defender bonus that is permanent, but it could be vice versa. Loresongs got fickle last year."
(or whatever it may be)

This one drives me nuts.

I'm also not satisfied with the current messaging for this situation! Though, my understanding is that warriors can tell if weighting and padding are temporary; not clear if they can do the same for resists.

Yes, warriors can tell ... Mister Beldannon and I had to work one out last night.
But it's a less than satisfactory way to treat a loresinging to have to tell the client it might be this, it might be that. IF we're lucky, one of the things in question might be something a warrior can tell us which is which.
If its not one of those things, then I tell them to treat them both as if they are temporary. :(
Nobody really wants to hear that. :(

We have entirely too many things that are called "enhancements" by the system. We could also have benefits, modifications, (I won't say 'alterations'), and so on.
Here is where I put my reference to OotS again, with their strip about 'up a level/down a level'.

For what it's worth, I also have "issues" with things that can be abbreviated "AS", like Attack Strength, Aimed Spells, and Arcane Symbols. <snort>
