[edit] Cormyrian items description (semi-random gen mechanic)
These reward items are similar to randomly generated items, though they might contain multiple enchantments and they can have more than simply a suffix and a prefix.
Note: You will also, rarely, find completed randomly generated named challenge items in the chests found in the challenges themselves. The only advantage to the turn-ins is that you may select the item type. They can also drop after killing the dragon in the Underdark.
| Melee weapons
|
ML 16 Melee weapons have 3 single enchantments. ML24 Melee weapons have 4 single enchantments. Material types also count as enchantments. Other known enchants by group (you'll get one from each group):
- Group A)
- Group B)
- Group C)
- Group D)
- Generally something from either group A or B again
|
| War Wizard's Staff
|
As Thaumaturgy except they can additionally have an additional strong double-type blue suffix. (Often Spell Mastery and another)
|
| Throwing weapons
|
ML24 throwers also have the same 4 single enchantments, but in addition have the secret effect "Spellplague" which can do a lot of random effects:
- Every hit: Either a random 1d6 hp damage type or stat damage type
- 1-2% proc: Any rare shroud damage proc type
- Can additionally proc a huge variety of effects, at a low rate
|
| Armor/Shields
|
Generally not particularly interesting. ML24 versions mostly feature Tier4 (Mountain or equivalent) AC/DR stats, and only 3 enchantments, with one always being a Greater X elemental resistance. The other 2 are generally a moderate suffix/prefix.
|
- Sub-ML24 versions generally lose additional enchantments, and thus very closely resemble lootgen items, though the throwers retain their spellplague effect.
