Isn’t glyphing already kinda pointless? :bonk:


even at tier II/III glyphing, using dex/int/heal mastery glyphs helps me solo easier on 71-MQ. It improves your gear temporarily

Much like glyphing, and of course you start out with lvl 1 items, but my suggestion is to be able to transfer stats from 1 item to a white same lvl item and with the chance that it fails and you lose both items.

For example:

I have a lvl 55 sword with 55 strength.
I then use my transcribe skill on a white lvl 55 charm and hope that it transcribes the stats from the sword to the charm.
If the odds are not in my favor I would lose both items but gain some proficiency for the effort.
If the odds are in my favor the white lvl 55 charm would now have the strength stats.

Any thoughts on this?


Sure I'm for it. Because of how strong a success would be we should make the rate of success approximately equal to the chance of muting a 200 ee item :D

Gl transcribing all!

No one would bother to level up glyphing past rank 1 when they have this skill to level up instead (that's what I'm assuming OP means). I know that's what I would do if we had this skill.




No it's not. It makes use of that 55 str sword you have for example. :bonk:


I guess you never used a glyph
Glyphing will even with this transcribing thing be relevant as you can use any crap item to boost your stats temporarely, but it doesnt make sense to convert a 20strength 35weapon into another item

Well, this is how I look at it: Why would I waste 5+ years to get Glyphing high enough to glyph 55 items when I can waste 5+ years getting Scribing to 55 instead?

Doesn't matter either way. This suggestion won't happen.

There is no point in getting glyphing that high

No, way too powerful. Turn all fails into non fails. Nah I like fails, I’m good it.

Oh look, similar to my old suggestion. Mind you, mine was separated to two(2) different skills.


Extract: Choose only one property from an item (example; 55 Strength from Mystical TierXI Sword)= Creating a Mystical Tier XI Scroll with 55 Strength (Can only be used with any Tier XI White item). Since the Scroll is Mystical and only has 55 Strength, you can extract another mod from another Mystical Tier XI or lower Tier item and add it to the Scroll.

Imbue: Use the "Scroll" and "Imbue" the properties to a White item of the same Tier or Lower (as long as the mods do not exceed the limits... i.e. 100% ee on a Tier IV white item)

EDIT: Null Vote... your suggestion seems to easy. I did have other ideas in my original suggestion regarding the other mods of the items used in the extraction process, not sure if they completely disappeared or you could extract other mods from them to create more scrolls or add to the same scroll.

This was what I was thinking...

Glyphing will always be useful. The new skill would break any motivation to mute though. Just find some fail items and move the stats to something useful.

Anyway, voted no, the game needs another skill just about as much as it needed the guardian class.

I was actually serious in case anyone thought it was a joke. You just have to set the chance to succeed somewhere around 0.01% or so and no matter how overpowered it sounds, it's gonna be balanced. No sweat :)
