Attributes

The Basics

Attributes are unique properties of an item, generated at the moment of death of a monster holding the item or when painite crystals are used on the item (if successful).

For example, a Fire Sword dropped by a Dragon Lord has a chance to already have or to be upgraded with extra attributes such as:
•  Extra attack (from 36 to 37),
•  Parry ability (a chance to parry a physical attack towards you),
•  Extra sword fighting skills,
•  "Flamestrike" (a chance to deal additional fire damage on hit ).

Items are not limited to only one attribute. If you are lucky you may loot a fire sword with all the mentioned attributes, but keep in mind that not all items can have any attribute. 

 

Painite Crystals

Painite crystals can be used to enchant your items. They can only be used on items that are considered rare, very rare or extremely rare. 
These magical stones are destroyed on every use, successful or not.

Painite crystals can be bought from weapon salesmen in almost every major city.

Image	Name	Price
	Painite Crystal Shard	3,000 gp
RTENOTITLE	Small Painite Crystal	10,000 gp
RTENOTITLE	Large Painite Crystal	150,000 gp

The chance of successfully enchanting an item with attributes differs with the different crystals, the large crystals seem to have about a 15% chance of success,
the small crystals might be about 1% and the shards even less than that. These numbers are not confirmed.

 

Attributes

There are currently more than 48 different attributes available in-game; some of them, such as the "Intelligence" attribute, which boosts your magic level, can be used only by certain vocations (mages).

Each independent item can only have a certain set of attributes added to it. For example, the Ceremonial Mask will always end up with the "Presence of Mind" and "Intelligence" attributes
and will never have any distance or melee skill boost attributes. Thus every Ceremonial Mask in-game will end up with the same attributes when enchanted, although not necessarily in the same order.

Note: Skill boost attributes will display a number in brackets to show the skill increase (e.g. Precise (2) = +2 distance fighting).
Attributes based on chance and damage reduction will display a percentage in brackets to show the amount of damage reduction (e.g. Resistance (Fire, 5%) = reduces fire damage taken by 5%)
or the chance for a special effect to be triggered (e.g. Gouge (10%) = 10% chance for the attribute's effect to be triggered on hit).

Note: Not all attributes are specific to one type of item, for example the "Precise" attribute can appear on both distance weapons and some body equipment pieces.
Certain other attributes are restricted to a weapon type, while some are even unique to one weapon, shield or body equipment piece.
