<h2>WHAT TO DO IF YOU MESSED UP</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you realize an item is much stronger than you had anticipated, do not
|
|
worry. Resist the temptation to take the item away from the group; you should
|
|
also avoid simply making the item useless by creating situations in which it
|
|
never makes a difference. Instead, talk with the Players and explain what you
|
|
did wrong, then adjust the effects of the item together.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With this optional rule, Player Characters may pay a blacksmith or artisan to
|
|
add a Quality to armor, shields, or weapons that doesn't have one, or to
|
|
replace an item's Quality with a different one (remember, an item can only
|
|
have one Quality).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Player selects a Quality from the default list for that item type as long
|
|
as the cost modifier associated with that ability is +1000 zenit or lower.
|
|
Then, the character must spend an amount of zenit equal to twice the cost
|
|
modifier associated with the chosen ability: once this is done, the process
|
|
generally takes one day per item. Multiple characters may of course pool their
|
|
money together to purchase the more expensive abilities.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="example">
|
|
<strong>Example:</strong> T o replace a weapon's current Quality with Multi
|
|
(<a href="/books/core/#page-269">page 269</a>), you must spend 2000 zenit. To
|
|
replace it with Resistance, you must spend 1400 zenit.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default list of weapon abilities can be found on
|
|
<a href="/books/core/#page-269">page 269</a>, while the default list of armor
|
|
and shield abilities can be found on
|
|
<a href="/books/core/#page-280">page 280</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If a Player Character acquires the
|
|
<a href="#page-237">Upgrade Heroic Skill</a> (page 237), they will gain access
|
|
to this optional rule by default.
