Ruby Forge Stone

Post by Cornflower »

So, maybe there's a limitation, like you need to be a redhead or at least have 18 skill in something or other, but I tried the Ruby Forge Stone that I found the other day on many things with and without edges, rings, armor, etc, etc. Basically everything I happened to have in the inventory, but that didn't work. Could be the Ruby Forge Stone is bugged?

Ahem, perhaps you should have said "new" forge stone instead of outing the color. This info should be RP'd in game. Too late now. Definitely a spoiler!

Specifying that it's new is arguably a bigger spoiler than that it's a particular color.

Regardless, a bug is a bug and needs to be reported. Saves wastage until it's fixed.

Well, if someone had told me it was a new stone, I could have done that. But how should I know it's new? Also, how should I know it's the only new stone? It's not like I find Forge Stones all over the loot....

Thank you for taking your time to report this. Driller is looking into this, as it's clearly not working as intended. To cause less confusion; this forge stone has been around for a couple of years, so it's not new #nospoiler :)

Actually Ruby Forge Stones have never had any abilities. It was added by mistake, catch one of us online and we will give you a red for it.

That's a good trade! I'll try to find one of you. How do I do that? What's your player names? Is it as simple as driller or eaze?

For all intents and purposes, any remaining Ruby Forge stones will now act just like red ones.

So are we swapping these or is the process suppose to be automated now and they act like reds?

Asking because they don't work atm.

I have tested this and the Ruby Forge stones work. Are you sure it's a Ruby forge Stone and not just a regular ruby gem?

It must be a Forge Stone. Normal gems will not work in the Forge.
