A crafting question

[Nite Mage]

I have a question for some master crafters. If I have an weapon with +1 enhancement bonus, can I put +20 attack bonus on it? Will the forge allow me to? Will the AB override the EB or vice versa?

Along the same lines....a piece of armor with +2 AC, can I put +6 AC over it?

Anyone who can help me with these answers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

If I remember correctly ( and it has been awhile )
EB overrides AB, so you wont get the 20, so your gonna have to put on EB.

EB and AB don't stack.

[Roland Deschain]

No, if an item already has EB, AB, or AC on it then it can not be improved upon later.

[Capt Cliff]

Best to start with a blank slate ... a weapon or armor without Ac or AB or EB ... socketed equipment works or a drop that has neat qualities but no AC or AB or EB.

Thanks, this is exactly what I was wondering

I have collected some good items that would sell high, but I was going to use the "Random Property Removal Tool" on them. Then the tool changed to just work on socketed items. Then I thought I might just add the +20 AB or +6 AC, but now I know.

Thanks again.
