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, but if you have a Headband of Power, you won't need any more really.
  • 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. You do not lose the effort you've put into your leveled weapon(s), and increase your overall power and other stats.


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"

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.
