The Exiled Sale Recipe Book (spoilers)
" Thank you for doing that, radiatoren, and (again) thanks for your original post, which is hugely beneficial to the community. I meant no disrespect by my comments, I just didn't understand what that part of your post meant. I should have been clearer when expressing my misunderstanding. Thanks also to overburn who I have since spoken to directly and I apologise here if I took his comments too seriously. It turns out he is a nice bloke and I took things the wrong way. See you all in game soon :) |

I tested out a bunch of combinations on the 5-of-same-item=new item of same type and rarity recipe.
Results: 5 normal Arcanist Armor = Scroll of Wisdom 5 magical Arcanist Armor = 1 unidentified magical Arcanist Armor, with different sockets (1 blue), tested this recipe twice (really sold), can not repeat test further 6 magical Ornate Wand = 5 different outcomes depending on which 5 I use, order of wands does not matter, only inclusion in the recipe matters (in other words, the game is summing the random item seeds to get a seed for this new item), which vendor I used made no difference, different socket configurations on each result (in my case the 5 results were BLBB, B, RB, GLGLB, G, B where L indicates linked sockets). Including orbs seems to have no effect on the rolled item (at least for blue recipe). This hints at the possibility of rolling a 6 linked item by having a large enough collection of inputs (more than 5) to iterate through and see which combination of 5 produces the desired result...

"Interesting. It sounds like you could use that recipe to effectively convert jewler's orbs, chromatic orbs, and alteration orbs into fusing orbs. Just keep using your chromatics and Jewlers' on one item and keep trying the recipie again. Last edited by Strill#1101 on Jan 19, 2012, 9:56:18 AM

Rerolling the item with jewelers/chromatics/fusings does not change the outcome, already tried it.

Nope, doesn't work. I had a similar thought. I had about 9 studded battleplates that I was testing with. I figured that a larger set would yield a higher number of combinations and increase the likeliness of getting something with a valuable number of sockets.
After about a half hour of trying, the best I had seen was a 4 socket 3 link. I'm not saying it's impossible to get anything higher, just that I have bad luck. It's also a major drain on both real estate and patience, even with a good system. Urist McDwarfy has been happy lately. He admired an exceptional ARPG recently. He took joy in slaughter lately.

When testing the items you should note the itemlevel of each of the components you put into the recipe to see what the outcome is.
Realise it is a lot of extra work but still interesting. |

"On my tests with rings (twice rares once magics) the outcome was always the lowest itemlevel of all rings from input | |
" If this is true for the mechanics, the should try to improve it to the average value. invited by timer @ 10.12.2011

" Rerolling one of the inputs with an alteration did not change the output, nor did augmenting a single-affix input. I'm pretty sure scouring + transmute would have the same result. It is based on some internal id/info that we don't have access to. |

For anyone trying to figure the Fusings recipe:
"-Chris, hi, what do you want for the Fusings Recipe? :) -Chris: the fusing recipe actually isn't in yet... but will be soon" it's quoted from yesterday chat. |
