Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 In terms of the acid damage per round, are they the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Spddin Ignis Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 No. I don't even think the oozing blade does acid damage per round, I could be wrong though, i generally play as a shaper so I rarely use swords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Are you sure the Viper's Touch does acid damage? Dikiyoba thought it did poison damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Dantius Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Viper's Touch does, in fact, do poison damage. However, I find that enchanting with the Golden Crystal is a bad idea. It does 6d5 extra physical damage, meaning that, on average, you get an extra 18 damage (3*6), plus an extra 30 to hit. However, if you're playing as a warrior, you probably already have a enormous TH percentage, so that's pretty useless. However, the runed amethyst adds 34d2 (IIRC) acid damage, per round, meaning that you get an average of 51(!) damage. That's nearly three times as good, and nearly every enemy except Rotgroths and some special bosses are vulnerable to acid. This is why I always go with the Runed Amethyst on my Puresteel blade, as it does more damage. The golden crystals I safe for enchanting armor. BTW, if you use the golden Crystal for enchanting a minor artifact, if you turn it into a major artifact, does it keep the enhancement?

Hatchling Cockatrice ex post slarto Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I strongly doubt it, both because items can only hold 1 enchantment, and because of how item creation works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Wait until making a major artifact before enchanting it with a golden crystal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Hypnotic Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I tried it, making a minor into major does infact lose any Enchantment it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
