Restorable Item

[soundless]

i hate base skill checks, mainly because it negates the natural 'forever' bonuses (be it racial, profession, or whatever) as well as the temporary ones (spellsongs, fires, etc).

...For an Artisan to be able to even begin to restore items they must first meet the level requirement after that the skill requirement. The skill needed for various items will fluctuate though the level requirement will stay constant. This ability is a special ability that an Artisan becomes capable of performing at that specific Level.

Do you have to affix it to something in order to find out what it does?

Not if you're observant and/or intuitive.

Well..., as of right now the way it works is that it checks to see if you pass the level req, if you pass that then it checks to see if you pass the skill requirement. So if you fail either of those you will get that message. It does go off of raw skill when seeing whether or not you meet the requirement, and if you do then your bonus in the skill would kick in.

Regarding your situation, you pass the level req, just not the skill check.

Remember that the repair skill has a major factor in being able to (restore) the item.

the links can't be researched.

before you research the standard, it has to be repaired.

i'm not sure if anyone can research it, but i know only artisans (with 120 repair+) can gain the ability to restore.

any information researched is added to the look description of the item, though. so if i find out something is used by the howling ninja monkeys of east Haelrahv, then you'll see that in the look description.

so what's the new items? i wanna restore stuff! damn being in school tutoring.

The research library, more or less, serves as a tool to help you determine what certain recovered items are capable of, via outlining their history. The regular items don't really have any historic merit (outside of valuable antiquity), the links are dated after they're restored, and the relics (the thurible being one) are mostly well-preserved (and a lot more valuable) one-shots.
