Crafting Recipes by Gear

[EllisDee37]

Crafting recipes by gear will let you see at a glance all the shards that can be added to a given piece of equipment. Note that only one prefix and one suffix can be added to any one item.

Starting with the Menace of the Underdark expansion, new flexible slot shards have been added to the game. For details on flexible shards see the second post in this thread. For traditional crafting, see the following:

Main Hand Weapons
Armor
Shields / Off Hand Weapons
Docent
Clothing
Headgear
Goggles
Necklace
Cloaks
Bracers
Gloves
Belts
Boots
Rings
Trinkets / Rune Arms

Some effects have a parenthetical explanation of what they do, others don't. The main idea of these lists is to give you the keywords you need to search the shard machine.

There are a dizzying array of spell effects. To help get a handle on them, here are all the keywords associated with an energy type both for spells and weapons.


.............------------ Spell Power ------------...------- Weapon Effects -------....Energy
Energy Type..Passive.........Active......Lore........Standard...Burst.......Other......Absorption
-----------..--------------..----------..---------...---------..----------..-------....---------------
Acid.........Corrosion.......Erosion.....Acid........Acid.......Acid
Cold.........Glaciation......Freeze......Ice.........Frost......Icy.........Cold
Electricity..Magnetism.......Spark.......Lightning...Shock......Shocking...............Electrical
Fire.........Combustion......Inferno.....Fire........Flaming....Flaming.....Fire.......Fire
Sonic........Resonance.......Cacophony...Sonic.......Screaming..Thundering..Roaring
Force........Impulse.........Impact......Kinetic
Healing......Devotion........Ardor.......Healing
Repair.......Reconstruction..Mending.....Repair
Light........Radiance........Brilliance
Negative.....Nullification...Nihil.......Void..........................................Negative Energy



For easy reference, here's a list of the standard crafting slots for stat bonuses:

Strength: Belt, Gloves, Ring, Bracers
Dexterity: Boots, Gloves, Ring
Constitution: Belt, Necklace, Ring
Intelligence: Goggles, Headgear, Ring
Wisdom: Headgear, Necklace, Ring
Charisma: Cloak, Headgear, Ring



Quick tip: Persuasion, Good Luck and Charisma are the only ways to boost UMD apart from Command, which doesn't stack with persuasion and only goes on armor. A typical umd swap will be either charismatic (hat/ring) of persuasion, or if you normally equip charisma, underwater action (goggles/ring) of persuasion.

Flexible Shards

U14 introduced flexible shard recipes (bound level 101-150), allowing standard shards to be crafted into non-standard slots.

The following keywords mean that the shard can go in any slot in the list:
.....Accessory: Hat, Goggles, Necklace, Cloak, Bracers, Gloves, Belt, Boots, Ring, Trinket
.....Armor: Heavy Armor, Medium Armor, Light Armor, Docent, Clothing
.....Weapon: Two-handed weapon, One-handed weapon, Shield
.....Shield: One-handed weapon, Shield

NOTE: To avoid confusion, for shards that go on the "Weapon" group I include the "Shield" keyword even though it's redundant.

.....Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma

Energy Resist: Anywhere
.....Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, Sonic

Energy Absorption:
.....Electrical: Accessory, Armor

Trinkets / Rune Arms

Note that craftable trinkets are tougher to find than other items. They can be bought in the DDO store, found in quest drops -- I found mine in Red Fens as an end reward for Into the Deep -- or created by disjuncting a Shard of Power from The Shroud. Note: Greater and Supreme Shards of Power aren't craftable, only a regular Shard of Power can be disjuncted.

DDO Store trinkets must be disjuncted before you can craft with them.

you don't happen to know which item can use the Hidden doors shard do you ?

I've only tried on a Ring and Cloak and I get no recipes can be found message

[Paryan]

Trinkets

Note that craftable trinkets can only be found in quest drops. I found mine in Red Fens as an end reward for Into the Deep.

One other place to get these, you can deconstruct a shard of power from the shroud (pt 1) to make a bound to character one. I know these may have more value for GS depending on how lucky you are in pulling but just an FYI that it can be done.

Nice job putting the list together ! +1

[Jaid314]

you don't happen to know which item can use the Hidden doors shard do you ?

I've only tried on a Ring and Cloak and I get no recipes can be found message

do a search in the bound items construction device for secret doors. hover over the portion of the recipe that is not a shard - it should tell you what it needs.

on a side note, goggles work, according to his lists :P
