DISMANTLE, EMBED


Some artisans all around Arda are able to embed items into staves, helmets, amulets, and rings. Not every artisan will be able to embed everything: in general, armourers and weaponsmiths will be able to embed metals, jewellers will embed gems. Those same artisans that are also able to dismantle equipment. Dismantling a staff will remove all embedded items and return them to the player. The cost of dismantling a staff increases with each time a staff is dismantled.

Examples:

  > embed bar in staff
  > dismantle staff
Metallic bands will make a staff harder, hence making it grant better physical protection. Gems will instead boost an enchanted staff's magical powers, the effect depending on which gem is embedded.

You cannot embed more than a certain number of items on a given staff, and embedding an item is a definitive choice — you cannot pull the item out and replace it with another.

Some gems are considered major gems, and there is a limit to how many of these a staff can hold. Some gems will allow the staff to function as a usable item, and a staff can only hold one of these.
