Augs

In-game equivalent: help augs

AUGMENTATIONS -------------

Augmentations (augs) are upgrades that can be inserted into compatible item slots. They can add stats, elite/focus-style effects, spell-style effects, or weapon/proc-style effects.

COMMANDS -------- insert <augmentation> into <item> uninsert <aug slot #> from <item>

Example: insert Wulfenite Shard into Water Sprinkler of Nem Ankh

STANDARDIZED AUG TYPES (LIVE MAPPING) ------------------------------------- This mud standardizes legacy aug data at item clone time.

New Type 1 - Stats New Type 2 - Elite (worn/focus-style) New Type 4 - Weapon/Proc

Note: Type 3 is currently collapsed into Type 2 in this mud's standardized

model and is not used as a separate target slot type.

AUGMENT ITEM REMAP ------------------ Legacy augment family/type values are collapsed to the standardized system:

Legacy 4/5/6 -> New Type 4
Legacy 3/20/21/30 -> New Type 2
Other legacy types -> New Type 1

If an augment uses a legacy bitmask, each legacy bit is remapped and collapsed into the new Type 1/2/4 bitmask.

EQUIPMENT SLOT REMAP -------------------- Existing DB-provided visible slots are preserved and remapped by type:

Legacy slot type 4/5/6 -> New slot Type 4
Legacy slot type 3/20/21/30 -> New slot Type 2
Other positive legacy types -> New slot Type 1

IMPORTANT: existing visible DB slots are not deleted.

STANDARD SLOT TEMPLATES (ADDITIVE) ---------------------------------- After remapping existing visible slots, missing standard slots are added only into empty/invisible/unused aug slots:

Non-weapons: ensure Type 1 + Type 2
1H weapons: ensure Type 2 + Type 4
2H weapons: ensure Type 2 + Type 2 + Type 4 + Type 4

So this is additive and non-destructive: preserve what exists, then fill gaps.

NOTES -----

You still need a compatible slot and any item restrictions to insert an aug.
Ornament-style legacy families are currently mapped into standardized elite

  slots in this model.

If insertion fails, verify the item slot types shown on the item display.

AUGMENTATION DISTILLERS ----------------------- Use distillers to remove inserted augs safely. Higher-class distillers can remove lower-class augments. Perfected Augmentation Distiller can remove any class.

SYMPATHETIC AUGMENTATIONS ------------------------- Special ring augments can echo healing, direct damage, or damage-over-time spells with an additional effect. The guildmasters in the Void sell books containing the knowledge needed to create them.

See 'help sympathetics' for an overview.
