Ingredients[edit]

New ingredients are Bound to Account on AcquireIcon tooltip.pngBound to Account on Acquire: This item is Bound to Account on Acquire. Tier 1 and Tier 2 ingredients to be found in flagging quests (To Curse the Sky and Creeping Death) also. Tier 3 ingredients will only drop in end chest of the Codex and the Shroud or Devil Assault (quest).

Legendary Hound of Xoriat and Legendary Tempest's Spine provides "indirect access" to ingredients in the form of 1,000 Raid Runes trade-in, but this is for Tier 1 and 2 only.

Our design goals are currently focused on end game play more so than game economy. This is why we have designed the system to keep the ingredients, at least initially, as bound to account. This allows us to track the accumulation of ingredients and items and acts to mitigate the collateral damage of potential exploits. This still allows players to move ingredients to alternate characters that need them, while acting as a preventive measure against new or previously unknown (by us) methods of duplication.

Tempest Rune turn-in example:

  • (Standard): Tempest Rune Trader success with Green Steel Ingredients! Created: Legendary Small Sulfurous Stone (1), Legendary Medium Sulfurous Stone (1), Legendary Small Twisted Shrapnel (2), Legendary Small Devil Scales (1), Legendary Medium Devil Scales (1), Legendary Medium Gnawed Bone (1), Legendary Small Length of Infernal Chain (1).

Xorian Rune turn-in example:

Items are crafted in the Altar of Fecundity in Meridia, using 100 Codex Runes and 100 Commendations of Valor. Weapons all have 4.2[W]. There is no armor, shield, orb, nor runearm.

Recipes, Slots and Augments[edit]

Green Steel Augment UI, accessed via an icon in inventory panel

A new kind of Augment system dubbed "Green Steel Augment Slots" has been implemented. All Legendary Green Steel weapons have 4 slots (3 Tiers + Active). All Legendary Green Steel equipment have 5 slots (+ "Fangs of Shavarath" slot to be filled by Immortal's Heart, to cleanse Legendary Taint of Shavarath effect). These are filled by 120+ types of augments that somewhat resemble their heroic versions, composed in a way such as Air/Dominion/Material. Augments are all Bound to Account on AcquireIcon tooltip.pngBound to Account on Acquire: This item is Bound to Account on Acquire.

(See sub-pages for recipes and effect details)

You can slot Green Steel Augment at will and in any order. No need to start from Tier 1 to get an effect you desire. You also can overwrite any slot any time while you are in public instance.

Augment removal is possible, but it will require a store-only consumable item, called Legendary Green Steel Extractor.

Differences from Heroic version[edit]

  • Stat weapons - Tier 1/2/3 bonus type is Enhancement/Insight/Exceptional and +15/+7/+2 (Tier 1 changed from +14 to +15 with U29P2). +2 Exceptional is new but not stacking. I.E. it only offers +1 over other sources such as Globe of True Imperial Blood.
  • HP/SP + Skills equipment
    • HP/SP - Stacking nature of Heroic HP/SP equipment was discontinued initially (Enhancement/Insight/Quality, +56/+28/+14 [HP] +302/+151/+75 [SP] respectively). However they changed the first tier bonus types to Profane with U29P2, to make them stack with other sources (now Profane/Insight/Quality, +28/+28/+14 [HP] and +151/151/75 [SP] respectively).
    • Skills - Competence/Insight/Quality (not Exceptional) and +22/+11/+6. The best you can find on Update 29 randomly generated loot is Competence/Insight +20/+10-ish. (A display error stating Enhancement bonuses for tier 1 has been fixed with U29P1. "Charisma skills" do include Use Magic Device, however amount of bonus for it has been reduced to +6/+3/+1 with U29P1.
  • Negative/Dominion/Material weapon - Unholy/Evil Burst/Evil Blast do Negative energy damage unlike Heroic variants, which were all alignment based damage.
  • Ethereal/Opposition weapon - MRR is new. Enhancement/Quality/Exceptional and +35/+9/+9.
  • Positive/Material/Opposition equipment - Unconsciousness Range expansion is new.
  • Heroic tier 1/2 combo effects are replaced by Active Augment slot. You now have to spend ingredients separately for these, and most options require Tier 3 ingredients also. Some options are very, very expensive. For example;
    • The most popular Displacement clickie requires 3x T3 manufactured ingredients (equivalent to 12 raw Larges).
    • Radiant Forcefield, Reincarnate and Sigil of Warding require 12x T3 manufactured ingredients (48 raw Larges).
    • Summon Frog is the most expensive one in this regard, it requires 15x T3 manufactured ingredients (60 raw Larges), but according to its description, it is supposed to be a fluff/bragging-rights item.

Bonus effects for weapons[edit]

The bonus is determined by the combination of four foci; one Tier 1, one Tier 2, and two Tier 3.

  • See the list of effects here.

Worked example - for 'Dust' effect on a Shuriken :

  • create tier 1 shard Inferior Focus of Negative Energy ( - 12d6 acid damage on hit)
  • create tier 2 shard Focus of Earth ( - Negative Burst damage on hit)
  • create tier 3 double shard of Earth and Negative Energy ( - 10d120 acid damage on vorpal hit)

Bonus effects for equipment[edit]

Wearing two or more items can provide different kinds of bonus. All but one of the items must be cleansed. It is typed as Legendary bonus.

Dominion / Escalation / Opposition bonus[edit]

This is one theory on how it works, based on a number of tests.

Dominion Escalation Opposition
Math Spell points
3% set bonus, 1% per augment
Dodge cap
1% set bonus, 1% per 3 augments
Hit points
3% set bonus, 1% per augment
2 augments +5% SP +1 Maximum Dodge +5% HP
3 augments +6% SP +2 Maximum Dodgescreenshot +6% HP[UnverifiedIcon tooltip.png"+6% HP" has not been verified in-game. Please verify it!]
4 augments +7% SPscreenshot +2 Maximum Dodge +7% HP
5 augments +8% SP +2 Maximum Dodge +8% HP
6 augments +9% SP +3 Maximum Dodge DDO Forums +9% HP
  • If one augment type has plurality, that becomes the dominant type, and determines the bonus type.
  • If no augment type is dominant, you don't get a bonus. (Tests 2, 3).
  • The strength of the bonus is determined by the number of unique dominant augments, according to the table above.
  • A dominant augment must be unique. The (deliberate) mistake in Test 11 was that the Tier 2 Dominion augments were identical.
  • The Tier of the augments (1/2/3) is irrelevant. (Test 12 and others).
  • You must wear two accessories, although one of them could be empty. (Test 6).
  • With more than two accessories and more than 6 dominant augments, bonus is expected to increase along the same curve. 12 Opposition augments give 30% HP bonus.
  • The bonuses stack with those from Epic Destinies.
  • Opposition set, along with requiring Opposition to be dominant, requires an equal amount of Dominion and Escalation among your items (0 of each counts as equal).

Note Added 1/2/17 - Had an item Air / Dominion / Ethereal for two tiers. Added an item Negative / Escalation / Material for two tiers. Under Effects it reported: "You benefit from your Dominion. --- Legendary modifier to Maximum Spell Points: +9%". Based on the above, it should not have had any effect.

Ethereal / Material set bonus[edit]

4 piece set bonus grants the following. DDO Forums

Legendary Green Steel Handwraps were not originally available - they were introduced in Update 33 Patch 2 following the Handwraps rework.

On Lamannia, two-handed, ranged weapons, and Bastard Swords had +1 critical multiplier as a base weapon-specific bonus, but it was a confirmed bug.DDO Forums
