General Information

A re-layer deed (more simply known as a relayer) lets you turn an item from one slot to another.

Examples of re-layering:

  • Turning a levelable/leveled weapon into another item such as a shield, shirt, sash, etc...
It will take up the new equipment slot, yet retain all the properties of your weapon.
Armor, Clothing, & Jewelry will not retain offensive skills such as Hit Lighting, or Hit Life Leech. Any properties listed under Weapon Hits on the information gump of a levelable weapon will not apply to a weapon re-layered to a new piece of equipment.
  • Turning a two handed weapon (such as a Blaze of Death) into a one handed weapon.
  • Turning a hat (such as a Spirit of Totem) into jewelry.

Relayer Properties

Want the following stats, generally in this order:

  • Damage Increase
Damage Increase from equipment caps at 100%, so some may not need this.
  • Resists
Resists are nice and look great on relayers.
  • Hit Chance Increase(HCI) and/or Defense Chance Increase(DCI)
HCI/DCI are important to cap, and even go 15-20% over.
  • Swing Speed Increase
SSI is nice. Caps at 60%.
  • Luck
Luck is a toss up, if you intend on adding luck deeds. Luck deeds add +100 luck per deed, capping at 400 luck per item) available for 100 ED. You may wish to search for a weapon with some luck on it. But it's best to focus on a luck relayer as your second or third one, once you have maxxed your DCI/HCI, and surpassed the caps by 25% or so.

If you intend on relayering an item, the first two slots you want to use are Kilt/Skirt and the Shirt slot. These slots have no items that have stats. The next is the Cloak (only items w/ stats here are from Events), the Sash (Follower of the Old Lord), and finally, Pants (5th relayer, will need resists to cover the loss here).

With careful planning you can utilize re-layer deeds to fully customize your character's clothing. If done properly, you can cap HCI/DCI/LMC/FC/FCR with your first relayer/GoC Chest & Boots/Follower Sash.

-Char Stats/regens/Rpd/Spdmg all total 311 points. These are essential to a relayer. Regens have a diminishing return around 35.

-Resists aren't needed, but look nice.

-Do not add luck. If it comes with it on it, great. Otherwise, use a deed.

-Enh Pots is pretty awesome. 25% enh pots = an extra 5 Str. 50% enh pots = 15 HP (Enh pots adds Base Str. Str from equipment gives 2 HP per 1 Str, Base Str follows a different formula)

-I don't recommend LRC, but if you want it, go for it.

Note: Do not add Swing Speed Increase. It takes a lot of points and is not worth it. Find a wep with it on it already, or wear a Headband.

How to Relayer

Re-Layering an item step by step:

  • Buy the re-layer deed for 500 EDs. It is located within the white portal near the Trinsic Bank.
  • Double click the re-layer deed.
  • Target the item you are wanting to re-layer; ie. level 100 bow
  • Target the item you want re-layer your leveled item into; ie. a shirt or kilt. ◊ See Below
  • Click "ok"

NOTE: If you are changing to the appearance of a lantern, candle, or torch - this item will be permanently in the 'off' position. If you wish your item to be lit, place the item, sample item, and relayer deed into your backpack and page the staff to do the change for you. You cannot have the item switched to 'on' at a later date without being charged 100ED for an appearance change service.

Warning: You are imprinting the stats upon the targeted item, THAT ITEM WILL BE DESTROYED. It is suggested you craft the item that you will be imprinting onto.

Relayer Slots

Note: Above links are to give a general idea of the types of item styles available for each slot. Not all styles are available on this shard.
