Talk:Inscription

From Guild Wars Wiki

[edit] Campaign?

What does it mean for an inscription to be Core? I thought only Nightfall weapons have inscriptions, and several of the "Nightfall" inscriptions corresponds to modifiers that can be found in weapons of other campaigns. -User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 13:10, 5 May 2007 (EDT)

I've cleared it up. -- Gordon Ecker 06:44, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

If it is PvP then core should be removed as they are different. - BeX 08:24, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

I think it's a difference between "Accounts that do not have Nightfall still can use it in PvP", vs "Only accounts that have Nightfall can have it (in PvP and PvE)". Gordon's clearing it up made things precise and correct, but still takes thinking to understand what it really means.-User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 11:34, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

In the first case, then campaign should just read PvP. In the second case it should just read Nightfall. PvP can be considered a separate campaign, seeing as it is released separately also. Core should mean available to all PvE campaigns. At least, that is how it is used everywhere else. - BeX 00:15, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

Using your terms, it'd remain unclear (to the uninitiated) whether something labeled "Nightfall" is available for PvP or not, since you are considering PvP as "a separate campaign". -User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 11:03, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

Using the current terms is incorrect with the definition of core. We are teaching the "uninitiated" an incorrect definition. - BeX 11:11, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

"Within the context of Guild Wars, Core refers to those features which are common to all campaigns". In this particular case, players who only have the Prophecies campaign will have the "Strength and Honor" inscription available for PvP, but they will not have the "Don't Think Twice" inscription available to them. I fail to see how the definition is incorrect. Unclear? perhaps, but your proposal doesn't make things clearer either. -User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 13:28, 11 May 2007 (EDT)

If something is available for PvP, then it should be marked as PvP, not core. - BeX 01:34, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

Should all core skills be labeled as "Core and PvP" then (since those skills are available for PvP)? And how do you distinguish things that are only available in PvP for people who have Nightfall campaign, versus things that are available in PvP regardless of whichever campaign people own? -User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 04:28, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

This is a confusion we ran into when we were doing the armor - certain art types were labelled as core because they were available with a PvP character, whether or not you had the campaign. Which is what led us to specify PvP as a completely separate parameter. Most of the time PvP gets ignored, or lumped in with core, which shouldn't happen. It's easy enough to be descriptive when saying when things are available for PvP or not, but to say something is core when it should say PvP is misleading. If it were a Nightfall only pvp thing, all you would have to do is say PvP (Nightfall only). I am tired of seeing "Core" being misused - if you are saying that a thing is available to any campaign, but you cant get it in pve, that's a contradiction. PvP is a separate "campaign". - BeX 06:47, 12 May 2007 (EDT)

Reset indent. I don't know how things are done here, but originally on GuildWiki following the release of Factions, only Obsidian, Tyrian, Acalon, and Krytan armors were listed as Core, and they were in fact available in both campaign's PvE (and PvP), so there was no misuse of "Core" with respect to armor, at least originally on GuildWiki. In fact, armor art that were available to Factions-only PvP but not in Factions PvE were not labeled as Core, completely opposite of your claims. The armor articles treat PvP as "exceptions to the rule", not as "a separate campaign". PvP is a completely separate parameter, NOT in the campaign field, because it was not considered as a campaign.

If we go by your logic and consider the use of the term "PvP (Nightfall only)" legit, then that is to say that either the PvP/PvE factoring is a different factoring system than the campaign system, or that campaigns are not mutually exclusive. In both cases ("PvE/PvP is a spearate factoring system" or "campaigns are not mutually exclusive") there's nothing wrong with saying "Core (PvP only)". To say "PvP is a separate campaign" and to say something is "PvP (Nightfall only)" is self-contradictory, since you have rejected the possibility of intersections of PvP with other campaigns. -User:PanSola (talk to the File:Follower of Lyssa.png) 15:38, 13 May 2007 (EDT)

As inscribable items are now available in Factions elite missions should we include a specific Factions mention under Campaign? Factions (Urgoz's Warren and The Deep only). --Evil Geek 22:54, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia?

How about a trivia section since each of these is a reference to pop culture? Example; "To the Pain!" is from the Movie - "The Princess Bride." Sorsscriba 22:05, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

The trivia would end up longer than the article. Adding trivia is a bad idea because most of it would be purely speculation - you can never be sure who is referencing whom. - BeX 06:27, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

while i agree that adding trivia to this article would lengthen it considerably, i think it needs to be noted somehow even if it is speculation. u say u want separate articles for each item in the game, so why don't we create articles for each inscription? that way we can note trivia on its own page. of course, the trivia will still probably be longer than the rest of the article, but so what? --VVong|BA 19:37, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Having all of the trivia embedded into this single article would quickly make the like too large and unweildy - but I have no objection to the idea of having individual articles for each inscription that could then contain trivia specific to that particular inscription. Those who want to see a summary list can view it in this article, those who want the trivia can view the individual articles. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:43, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Emily Diehl volunteered to verify some trivia, so if we give her a list, she can tell us which are legit when she has the time. Maybe start Guild Wars Wiki:Projects/Trivia.. - BeX 02:44, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I would be against even putting verified ones on this list. There are a lot of inscriptions here, making even a list of only the verified ones to be unmanageably big. Better to offload the trivia - which is why I support individual pages. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 04:31, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I don't want them on this page either, but I would like to make sure that unverified claims or ridiculous ones are kept off certain articles. - BeX 05:18, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I think the wiki should document all the information it can about items, and in this case, trivia included. Some of the references are so obvious, such as "I Can See Clearly Now" - clearly, a reference to the song "I Can See Clearly Now": I can see clearly now, the rain is gone, I can see all obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind." --Talonz

// 00:28, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

You Could just put anouther Box in the grid for Trivia and just Put like one or two words such as "Cultural Phrase" or "Name of Song" or something like that.--Andyana 11:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

This is a special case. Most trivias can be separated, for example, quests names, spell names, etc. But there are no separte articles for inscriptions. Solution? A separate article for Inscription Trivia: Inscription/Trivia Then we add a link like this: Inscription/Trivia#Forget Me Not after each verified entrance, directing to the data about that particual inscription. MithranArkanere 00:26, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Someone had modified the inscription name to link to the trivia, and I agree with the person that removed it that the name itself should not link to trivia. As a substitute, the link to the full article is currently just at the bottom of the page. As a middle ground between those two solutions, I think it would also work to insert an additional column next to the name that contains the link to the specific entry in the trivia article - that way the name itself is not the link, and the link can go directly to the relevant entry in the trivia article. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:08, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't think Trivia is that important that we have to make a link for each inscription. Also the trivias are such short that it's not that difficult to browse through the list.. poke | talk 19:43, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

The very reason that they are in a seperate article can find its roots in the argument that having them as a single large list attached to this article made it difficult to navigate. If the trivia article were alphabetized, then I could agree that it's not difficult to browse the list - but that's not currently the case. As it stands now, if someone wanted to add a column with links to the specific trivia entry, I would strongly support them in doing that. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:53, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguation

I notice that currently you can't search for the Inscription by name, example: Strength and Honor and "Strength and Honor" don't exist. While I think that a page dedicated to each inscription is <Will Ferrel>Too... much...</Will Ferrel> I do think that perhaps having all inscription names redirect to this page is a good idea. If people agree, I can help with this as it's a bit of work... - Thulsey - talk 02:38, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

You certainly won't be told off for making them. --Lemming64 02:40, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

I said disambiguation, but upon reflection it's obvious that redirection is the way to go here... no need for a page to say 'you might be looking for this...' I'll go ahead and create, and if anyone tells me off, I'll send 'em here. ^_^ - Thulsey

- talk 02:53, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

All done. - Thulsey - talk 04:22, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article Overhaul

I've overhauled the article to correct some errors and omissions ... However, I don't have a PvP toon or free character slot so I couldn't check which inscriptions were or weren't available in PvP weaponset creation, so I had to go by what was in the old article. I'm also unsure of which inscriptions can and can't drop from the elite chests as I have mentioned in the article.

I'm also not sure when or how an article loses "stub" status so I left the warning in place for now. -- pullus talk 01:05, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] condition reduction

Hey, I am new here (first post, yay!) and hope I have done everything right... to the point: I don't dare to edit the article so I post my suggestion here. After testing it seems like that condition reducing inscription (like for example "I Can See Clearly Now") have to be equipped while the condition is applied to take effect. This is mainly interesting for weapon swapping ... Can anyone confirm my tests here and maybe add a comment on that. Cheers, Timebandit P.s. Wiki rocks --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Timebandit (talk).

[edit] Weapons that could have an Inscription but don't have one

Well, in the article is written that it need to be confirmed if HoH chest drops may appear without inscription...well, what i can say is that i already got golden items in NF and EotN that didn't have an inscription slot. happens only very rarely, though. —Zerpha The Improver 11:42, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inscription Trader

Don't you think it would be a good idea to have an Inscription Trader, too, or add it to the Rune Trader? I'm tired of finding a great inscription, selling it, then realizing a week or two later that I want it for a different character and have to search for 3 days to find another one, and the price is twice what I sold it for. I've got 11 char slots, some of which are primarily used for storage, but you can't always save everything you find. I'm not really too worried about the price because I've got plenty of money, but being able to buy inscriptions from a trader would save enormous amounts of hassle and time. - TheStuff07 23:47, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

If they added an Inscription trader, then they would need to add a weapon mod trader too. — ク Eloc 貢 17:13, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, but if the prices were based on supply and demand, it would still be worth it, even for weapon mods, too. - TheStuff07 03:07, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Prices would definitely plummet as people have the chance to now just go to the Inscription Trader. — ク Eloc 貢 21:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

So, prices plummet. Makes everything cheaper for the people who need to buy upgrades. It would be even better for weapon mods, too, cause I just spent 90k on maxing out just a Warrior's weapon and shield. Prices have gotten ridiculous, and no one who knows how to play will sell it cheaper, and most of the noobs don't get those kinds of upgrades. TheStuff07 08:03, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Most of the noobs don't even know what weapon mods are. — ク Eloc 貢 08:47, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, true, but I'm not the type of guy to take advantage of noobs. I wouldn't mind spending 3k on a good inscription at a trader, or 8k for a good weapon mod at a trader, but some mods and inscriptions go as high as a Rune of Superior Vigor, and even higher. TheStuff07 21:34, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

this has been an oft requested addition. inscription/mod trader that sells perf and near perf components would be ideal. but anet hasn't said anything that indicates they'll be doing this so i'm pretty sure it's not gonna happen. it'll have to wait until gw2 if ever. --VVong|BA 21:47, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New Inscription?

Couldn't find this inscription from this page. :o Too bad that the weapon is from Tyria and the mod unsalvagable. --Kalomeli (talk) 16:38, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

I've heard of this inherent mod before, but have never seen one myself. It's a pretty rare one by all accounts, and there is no equivalent inscription. --Valshia 00:27, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Try selling it and make lots of money. — ク Eloc 貢 17:03, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Look at this, the bow's little brother. I bet those two cryptic mods only appear on gold weapons, as the +5 energy mod does... —Zerpha

The Improver 14:50, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

I've still got a Shadow Blade with inherent +14%/-1 (yeah not +15%/-1, weird) in my storage, can provide screens for "research" if needed. Ratys 13:39, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Does Strength and Honor add 15% to all damage output (I.E. spells) or just 15% to the weapon? --Czar 13:01, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unidentified Inscription?

So I was farming with a couple of guys. Then someone from my party found this:

He said he salvaged a regular white weapon (for materials) and got this weird inscription. So my question is; WTF? --Lefy Piyero 12:41, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

white? 0ô And he is sure he didn't want to say blue? —Zerpha

The Improver 12:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

He said white item... --Lefy Piyero 12:48, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

That's actually impossible, weapons are only white if they do neither have a damage mod, upgrades, nor any other special features (like several quest items as the 55 cesta). Even if a white item gets an upgrade, it becomes blue. And as items without inscription do not take them, i hardly presume he was talking about an unidentified blue item instead, or possibly noticed another weapon without noticing it. —Zerpha

The Improver 12:52, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Either he really didn't notice it or it's some kind of bug. Either way I never saw anything like it before. If anyone did see something similar... I'd like to know about it. I asked my alliance and they didn't know what the hell I wanted from them >.< --Lefy Piyero 13:00, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

The way to get those are the salvage blue, purple, or gold weapons which aren't identified yet. — ク Eloc 貢 16:07, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey, speaking of this, one of my guildmates found the same thing... but idk what he salvaged it from. The inscription was called "Any Inscription". And I've tried to salvage from unidentified weapons, all I ever get/have gotten is materials Blessed Spectre 07:12, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

This is quite interesting. I'd like to know... Does this mean you can add it as an inscription to an already identified weapon, and identify it again? Or do you have to use an identification kit on the inscription first to reveal what it is? Power WM 17:28, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure you'd have to identify the inscription itself first. I assume you're asking to see if you can use it to easily exploit a means to get a high Wisdom title. I'm guess no, but I can't confirm it. My friend has a few, but I'm not going to ask him to risk his collectible items for a confirmation (unided inscriptions cannot be salvaged anymore).140.209.227.18 16:38, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Got a weird Inscription..

It was "Damage +14%" There was no (While in a stance), (while health is above 50%) (while you are hexed) etc... Plainly damage +14%. Any idea what the hell that is? lol And how much it would have been worth? My brother sold it to a Merchant...--The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:86.20.209.120 (talk).

Does not exist. Amen. Monte Mac Manannan 00:27, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Might have not been a weird inscription but rather, one of those weird mods you'll rarely see on tyrian/canthan weapons such as damage+15%, health regeneration: -1. --68.32.187.152 03:29, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Incorrect Data

"Any weapon which drops from the Chest of Woe or Underworld Chest is guaranteed to carry an inscription slot and inscription. " is not correct. I saw a non-inscribable gold Obsidian Edge drop from the Chest of Woe. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.134.157.117 (talk • contribs) at 06:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC).

You're right. In some rare cases, weapons drop without inscription slot. (This happens seemingly more often to non-inscripable items) Anyways, any normally inscripable item can come without any inherent mod - in general, in this case they don't get "Inscription: None" like crafted weapons, which causes them not to accept inscriptions just like any non-inscripable weapon. —Zerpha

The Improver 13:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] non inscribeable weapons

is there a list anywhere that shows all the weapon skins that you cant find a inscribeable version for? i know the ids is one of them.75.172.47.176 00:27, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Item rarity

Not all inscriptions have the rarity "common". For example, "Life is Pain!" can only be found in golden foci. Ɲ oɕʈɋɽɕɧ 09:39, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

The wiki uses the term Rarity to describe the color of an item, not how often it is found. This makes all inscriptions common since they are all blue. --

[edit] HCT Healing on a Divine Favour Staff?

Is this possible? I've noticed this on Greens I read this article but I'm still not sure. Could someone clear this up plz?

ty.

Smashman2004 ∙ talk 01:04, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Noone every answers my questions... =( Smashman2004 ∙ talk 15:37, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

No.The HCT mods that would be used to make it(inscription) "Aptitude Not Attitude" and an "Adept Staff Head" only apply to spells of the weapons requirement.I'm assuming your looking at This which is noted to not being replicable BlackBlood 16:06, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

No.

I was looking more at this. Kepkhet's Refuge. This is noted as replicable in PvE only. I am aware this is Prot but this one: The Scar Eater (unique) includes a Healing HCT. This is also replicable in PvE. Maybe more info on List of monk unique items would enlighten me and others..

Smashman2004 ∙ talk 16:39, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

btw. The only reason why Brohn's Staff is not replicable is because it has no HSR but a 33% less bleeding duration... Nothing to do with the HSR.

Smashman2004 ∙ talk 16:42, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

I think I just figured it out... I think its replicable in PvE only from Collectors. So I can't take a plain staff and then apply an inscription on.. Sound right?

Smashman2004 ∙ talk 16:45, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Such a staff MAY drop in Factions or Prophecies, you get weird mixes there sometimes, but it will be uninscribable and you'll have to be damn lucky. Misery 16:46, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Ok. each staff has 3 modifier slots (not including the inherent HSR and +10energy

Kepkhet's_Refuge

Head:Insightful staff head +5e

Wrapping:Staff wrapping of enchanting

Inscription:"Aptitude Not Attitude or protection" A mod which will ONLY HCT spells of the weapon attribute

Using Mursaat_Staff(Divine Favor) as a comparitive "clean weapon"

Head:Insightful staff head +5e

Wrapping:Staff wrapping of enchanting

Inscription: "Aptitude Not Attitude of Protection" <---That mod doesn't exist

Therefore.Kepkhet's_Refuge Can't be replicated including skin BlackBlood 17:35, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

The attributes of Brohns staff for example can't be either as the staff head takes up the slot that would need an "Adept Staff head of HCT Healing Prayers" <--a mod that doesn't exist

Head:Hale staff head

Wrapping:Staff wrapping of fortitude

Inscription:"Fear Cuts Deeper"

Getting something with a decent skin (this skin isn't documented as available from any collector's)like a Tormented Staff,it would be impossible to replicate the mods on either.The mods don't exist or the inherent mod of the green (Brohns drops the inherent HSR for HCT Healing) is screwy.Different collector skins/attributes may work(but it wont be an exact CC of the green))I doubt it but good luck anywayBlack Blood 17:51, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Forget Me Not: what is a range?

In article the range of chance for this inscription is 15...20%, but now I have 2 such inscriptions with +14% chance (one in focus item, second is salvaged). I suppose that real range for this inscription should be 10-20%, similar to some others, but I don't want to edit the data in table because need to have more statistics before. Has anybody seen the bonus less than 15% for this?--Slavic 18:21, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

I've seen 10% one in the past and found recently a 11%. It's 10-15% on blue items, 15-18% on purples, 19-20% on golds.--Yawg

Is there nowhere to go to get the going price for inscriptions? The dye trader gives present values of dye and the rune trader the value for runes. It would be wonderful if I knew what the value of all my inscriptions were. Any help?

[edit] Show me the money

Does anyone know if it is a good idea to salvage this inscription and apply it to an item you want to sell to merchant? I mean, does the extra gold that the inscription adds to the item, make up for the cost of the salvaging? The Masquerader 15:47, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

I think I recently saw a page trying to figure it out.. Not much is known at the moment - perhaps we could start a research page and look at the trends? --

Karasu (talk) 16:05, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Inscription/Research poke | talk 16:09, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

I have an even better question... is this article right, that "Show me the Money" can only add up to 75 gold to the sell price of the item it's set in? Because that makes it pretty damn useless if you ask me; I just sold one to a merchant for 136 gold today. So, why would you add it to an item then sell the item, when it can be worth twice as much by itself?

[edit] Acquisition - Charr Salvage Kit

I think a charr salvage kit is - in essence - the same as a five use esk. So it should be mentioned as a possibility to acquire inscrips, even though they don't drop in pre. It's still possible (haven't tried myself) to get a CSK and get out of pre, into NF, get a drop, identify an inscription, and remove it with the CSK - thoughts?79.67.3.47 18:06, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Of course it would work, but it's such a rare case it's not worth mentioning in the main article.--Yawg

[edit] Inscription: "Knowing is Half the Battle."

I have come into possession of one of these inscriptions (perfect) and I find that it has the unusual feature of having a Full Stop as part of the item name and, more importantly, the "Energy +5" Effect is limited by "(while casting)" and not "(while activating skills)" currently shown aginst this Inscription. I either have an extremely unusual item variation that needs to be noted or the WIKI Inscription page needs to be updated with this difference vs. this Inscription! Bearz 20:39, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

First, it's Armor +5, not energy. Second, your variation is probably right, but i wouldn't swear upon it. --JonTheMon 20:47, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, you are right. It is "Armor +5 (while casting)". Mea culpa for not getting it right first time - but the WIKI still looks to be wrong for this particular Inscription! Bearz 15:29, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Probably related to The Doors - Riders on the Storm?--86.61.59.244 14:54, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong colours, pictures with the correct inscriptions?

Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm new here and I don't know everything yet, so I don't even dare to change anything in the page, but I thought something was wrong with the pictures/colors of the inscriptions on the page. (only the Bronze and Lilac/yellow though)

I have in my bag an Lilac/yellow inscription which says: "Survival of the Fittest" - Attaches to: Inscribable Focus items And I have a few Bronze inscriptions, among one which says: "Nothing to Fear" - Attaches to: inscribable focus Items or shields. I have checked this at least three times, so i know that that is correct.

But when i checked on the page, I couldnt find my inscriptions in the correct sections. When I looked in the Lilac/yellow section, I found my bronze inscriptions, and when I looked in the bronze section, I found my lilac/yellow inscriptions.

Also, my Lilac/yellow inscription attaches only to focus items, and the page says it attaches to focus items and shields. And with my bronze items it is the other way around, mine attache to focus items and shields, while the site says they only attach to focus items.

So either you see colors differently than I do and what I think is bronze, you call Lilac/yellow. i which case only the pictures corresponding to the colors are wrong.

But I think that that is not the case, I think colors and items are mixed up, so everywhere it says Lilac/yellow and the corresponding picture + background color there actually has to be Bronze + corresponding picture + background color. And the other way around too. The inscriptions themselves are consequently (as far as i can see, since I don't have too many of them) in the wrong section as discribed above.

But offcourse, I also could be wrong, my apologies if I am.

[edit] questions about "guided by Fate" inscription

Does anyone know if "guided by Fate" will boost dmg made by a conjure spell like conjure lightning if you don't have enough req for the weapon? Example: shocking charr bow 15-28 shocking dmg, no points in marksmanship| conjure lightning, doing aprox 23 shocking dmg per hit| have a guided by fate inscription on it, does the guided by fate apply to the dmg made by conjure lightning? 67.167.64.47 16:19, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I could be wrong, but I am I pretty sure that mods only affect the base damage of the weapon, and not any other effects. --67.240.83.137 16:51, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] INscription question..

so, if i have a inscription that says +15% dmg against hexed foes, does that count for spell damage or anything, or just from auto atacking? 24.233.254.51 05:58, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Secret Inscription?

I got a gold axe today and I identified it; to my surprise, these were the mods:

Not secret, interesting to get a double though. --67.240.83.137 23:20, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Seems there's quite a few weapons with strange inherent qualities. Just one example that comes to mind is a Rit staff I came across that had HSR of Healing Prayers. It makes for finding the perfect weapon that much more exciting. Sardaukar

That thing probably would've been worth alot if it gave 2 energy on hit. --Sapphy 11:01, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
