Take your Build to the Next Level
The Random Enchantment Overhaul is LIVE!
Heroes!
The Random Enchantment overhaul is finally here. From this day forward, you will be able to harvest, collect, and apply the enchantments you want to any piece of gear in addition to being able to roll them randomly like before! Gone are the days where you had to decide between wearing your brand new epic shoulders and the old blue ones with the fantastic RE; now, just harvest, collect, and re-apply. Plus, with the addition of the new RE Leveling System, walking away from that Mystic Altar never felt so good.
Check out the guide below for all the information on the new RE system:
A Guide to Random Enchantments
Clicking on an enchanting altar (or on the Enchantment Collection in your Character Advancement Page) now opens up the Mystic Altar, and a brand new UI. This is your Enchantment Collection--a catalogue of all the Random Enchantments currently accessible in the game. Though you ‘ll only be able to see the effects of enchantments you have harvested, you may be able to guess what others do by their names.
Just like before, you’ll need [Mystic Runes] to roll RE’s; you can collect them from dungeons, raids, world mobs, and PvP. Place your gear on the altar, hit “Reforge Item”, and you’re on your way.
Enchantment Collecting and Collecting Reforging
Every time you reforge an item, your Random Enchantment Level will increase:
When you reach a new RE level, you’ll receive a [Mystic Extract]. These extracts allow you to destroy a piece of gear to harvest the enchantment it has on it, and add it to your collection; once it’s in your collection, it can be used indefinitely, any number of times, to enchant your gear. Do keep in mind, however, that random enchantments now only stack to five (some enchantments do not stack at all, and these are clearly labeled).
Harvesting an Enchantment
In order to harvest a random enchantment and add it to your collection, you’ll need two things: a [Mystic Extract] and an item containing the Random Enchantment you want to keep. Simply place the item you want to harvest on the altar and hit “EXTRACT”.
See that little sword thing in the corner?
Extracting an enchantment destroys the item, so please be absolutely certain before you extract an RE.
Once you extract the RE, it appears in your collection and you can use it whenever you want!
Mine to keep!
Enchanting from your Collection
After you have added an enchantment to your collection, you can use it to enchant any piece of gear you like, any number of times. In order to use an enchantment from your collection, however, you’ll need a [Mystic Orb]. Mystic Orbs, like Mystic Runes, drop from some world mobs, PvP, and dungeon bosses. They’re very rare, so try and get your hands on as many as you can; you’ll need them!
If you want to add an enchantment from your collection to a piece of gear, simply drag the item you want to enchant onto the altar, and select the enchantment you wish to give it. Then, click on “Collection Reforge”. When you do, a small window will appear detailing how many [Mystic Orbs] it will cost to enchant the item, as well as the success rate of the enchantment.
Hit accept, and presto! You’ve got the perfect RE on your gear.
And that’s all there is to it!
Some Final Notes
It’s worth remembering that Random Enchantments will only stack to a maximum of five(5). When we say that, we mean that random enchantments of the same name will only stack to a maximum of five. Any enchantment after the 5th simply doesn’t work, so plan out your spec accordingly.
Also, keep in mind that you only get one(1) [Mystic Extract] every time you increase your RE level. While there is no limit to the RE level system, the extracts are still quite rare. Iit’s important to choose the RE’s you want wisely before you harvest them.
Finally, harvesting an enchantment gives you the exact enchantment that was on the piece of gear.
As you can see above, we’ve added various ranks of RE’s to the game; make sure you’re harvesting the correct rank!
That’s pretty much the system, heroes. We decided on this version of RE collection so that you never leave the Mystic Forge disappointed. Now, even if you don’t get the RE you wanted, you’re one step closer to a Mystic Extract. Every Rune you use serves a purpose and helps you get more powerful. No more wasted trips to the altar.
We hope you really enjoy the new RE system, heroes. Show us the amazing builds you come up with using it!
