Items with BONUSES to old skills

[I_Raps]

First, I should note for readers/posters that this is not for items that GRANT old skills. Those were never intended to be modded - and I agree with PinkFrog that there's nothing wrong with gaining the use of a skill outside the Masteries.

Second, on the matter of Monster Infrequents. You will notice that PinkFrog has in fact addressed them - cleverly giving bonuses to a new Masteries skill as well as leaving the old skill bonuses intact in case the monster who equips the item could benefit. These also are not bugs.


Some items still give +1 or so on to skills that the PC cannot benefit from, however. This thread is for them (hopefully a very short thread).

Axe of Tereus (Legendary) still gives +2 to Onslaught.

I'd like to complement the devs (PinkFrog?) on a great job with said items. I was absolutely blown away to find that they had in fact gone through and altered the in-game items to suit the new masteries.

It should hopefully only be the odd epic and legendary item that bugged, keep an eye open for any but make sure you got latest version of masteries.

I was actually thinking of bringing this up as when I was playing today I gave my enforcer Atlas Bracers of the Atlas (what a coincidence eh) and it granted stone form, so I wondered if it would count as a cheat if I use it, but seems like it's fine. It's a kind of a good reminder of the old masteries while playing with the new ones. But yeah there is definitely nothing wrong with that. Afterall artifacts grant skills that the masteries do not, so if it's OK with that then it should be OK with this.

The granted skills are different (in someway) and always have been to the ones given by even the old masteries (at lest the ones I seen are).

Imagine an Enforcer equipping the Seal of Hephaestus for the Heat Shield and its Damage Resistance, melee immunity anyone?

[Grail Quest]

Druid's Vestment - "+1 to all skills in Tag Not Found"

glacial maul: +1 to storm mastery instead of sorcery (at least I hope)

maybe this is old news, and it's already fixed in 1.03
