MQ Aug question

Dalayan Beginner
I have the MQ gemstone. Groovy. I'm working on my tailoring skill.

Now when i see slot type 3, 5 I'm thinking 'huh?'.

Long and short, can my stone get added to say....shadowsilk robes, or something of the sort? Could you add the MQ gem to the augments for mastercrafted stuff? Would the affects stack?
 
The MQ augment is a type 3 augment, meaning it can only be added to equipment that has type 3 augment slots. Type 3 = jewelry, so most charms, rings, earrings, necklaces, crowns, etc have this type of augment slot.

For reference, type 5 = metal armor, type 4 = bow (not implemented AFAIK, or if it is, then they're rare as heck), type 3 = jewelry, type 2 = shields, type 1 = cloth/leather armor (I might be mixing the type 1 and 2, not sure).
 
Oh, right...so its useless to anybody but enchanters as they're the only people that can make jewelry....

i know, I probably should wait for the bitter to go away, but that aggravates me. What's the point in the thing if its nodrop, hence you can't have a chanter craft it for you?

ummm I think you missed something. You don't need to skillup to insert augments.
 
just from checking out random fomelos...

slot 2 = chain/plate
slot 5 = cloth/leather
slot 3 = jewleryesque gear. rings, some wrist slots...
 
It makes sense for the MQ augments to be type 3 . .everybody wears jewelry, but not all classes will have a piece of plate armor or leather armor to put a type 2 or type 5 aug into.

Doh, thanks for the correction. :)

Darian, check out the Wiki for more info on how augments work.
 
Type 4 is bows, but currently there are no bow augments. One of the staff (I think Wiz, but not positive) had said in the old Fletching thread in the Balancing forum that they intend to add bow augments in if/when they ever revamp fletching, but I have no clue if that is still the plan.
 
While we're at it, I noticed the Heartland Council augment for the pally I'm playing is a type 5 augment ; and my problem is I'm not wearing any leatehr / silk armor for obvious reasons 8( I could of course, but I'd lose AC severely. Are all the Heartland augments fixed by faction ? I wouldn't dare asking for a slot change but I feel there's something wrong I couldn't wear it.
 
while i agree with you there, i'm just surprised that bullen doesn't have it. It's one of the best belts out there and useful for many classes
 
I haven't been raiding enough, I didn't bring Bullen to PoA more than three or four times maybe, and anyway it's off topic and real Bullen has come back :)
Anyway thx for the idea, I'll bring it to the S&R, but I dont't have much hope about it tbh.
