Altar of Insanity

Overview
The Altar of Insanity is the Crafting device found in Hall of the Planes in the Tower of the Twelve. The device is used for items with the Trace of Madness attributes. These items come from Harbinger of Madness and Reign of Madness quests added in Update 9 and Update 10 respectively.

Crafting Window
The Crafting window presents a list of all available recipes. If an item is dragged into the lower left field, this list will be reduced to the recipes using that item. Also a Keyword search can be used to find the crafting recipe one desires.

Trace of Madness Items

 * Parasitic Breastplate (Update 9)
 * Beholder Plate Armor (Update 9)
 * Beholder Plate Docent (Update 9)
 * Infused Chaosrobe (Update 9)
 * Infused Chaos Docent (Update 10)

Recipes
Recipes require ingredients from the Reign of Madness Adventure pack added in Update 10. Ingredients can drop from any appropriate enemy and are added to your ingredient bag automatically when you or a member of your party kills them (similar to how collectables were distributed in a party during the special events). These ingredients are Bound to Account. Items remain Bound to Account after applying a bonus from the list below and undertake no change in minimum level.


 * * - These save bonuses do not stack with resistance bonus (link). (Initially they did, due to being typed oddly. See the post below for the reason.) NB. As of 2013/07/05 these no longer stack with resistance bonuses. I.e. if you have a resistance +5 bonus item and Alien Mind, you will receive an additional +5 resistance bonus to Will saves.
