Editing Luminous Armor Enchanting (section)

== Process ==
=== Step 1 - Extraction Token ===
Begin by going to [[Aelira]] in [[Asheron's Castle]].  It is recommended that you have 1,000,000 [[Luminance]] banked for Step 2, as that will be needed immediately following payment of the Alt Currency.

Choose between giving Aelira either:
*1 [[Stipend]] or 1000 [[Promissory Note|Promissory Notes]]

This will allow you to collect one Token from the shelves in her room.
*''If you accidentally pick-up the wrong Token, do not turn it in.''  Choose the correct Token and turn that in instead.  All Tokens will be removed from your inventory at turn-in.
*Choose a Token that matches the set for the piece of armor you wish to enchant.  ''You cannot exchange the Extraction Gem if you turn in the wrong Token to Aelira.''

=== Step 2 - Extraction Gem ===
Give the chosen Token to [[Aelira]], and at the cost of 1,000,000 [[Luminance]], she will charge an Extraction Gem.  [[Lifestone Shard|Lifestone Shard Collectors]] that are not currently on cooldown, will receive a [[Luminous Armor Crystal (Attuned)]] (more on these in Step 4) in addition to the Extraction Gem.

There is a limit of 5 Extraction Gems per week.

The purpose of an Extraction Gem is to destroy suitable armor to create Armor Remnants.  There are 2 versions of each Extraction Gem, and you can tell the difference between them by looking at the description.
* Extraction Gem ''marked with a Sword'' - is for extracting armor with +1-2 Crit Dmg rating.
* Extraction Gem ''marked with a Shield'' - is for extracting armor with a +1-2 Crit Dmg Resist rating.

Extraction Gems can be exchanged with [[Aelira]] as needed to match the type of rating on the armor you want to extract in the following step.

=== Step 3 - Armor Remnants ===
''Use caution: This step requires the permanent and irreversible destruction of a piece of armor.''

Apply the Extraction Gem to a matching piece of set armor.  Only certain pieces of armor are acceptable targets for the destruction process:

* Is not [[Retained]]
* Armor Set matches the set on the Extraction Gem
* Spellcraft must be 370+
* Must have +1-2 rating. If target armor is:
** Crit Dam, use the Extraction Gem marked with a sword
** Crit Dam Resist, use the Extraction Gem marked with a shield
** [[Aelira]] will exchange your Extraction Gem for the correct type
** Which Extraction Gem (CD or CDR) is used has no impact on the Armor Remnant.

When you have successfully used the Extraction Gem, you will create an Armor Remnant.

'''''Repeat Steps 1-3 until you have 5 matching Armor Remnants.'''''

=== Step 4 - Luminous Enchantment ===
Use a [[Luminous Armor Crystal]] to fuse 5 matching Armor Remnants together into a Luminous Enchantment.
* [[Lifestone Shard|Lifestone Shard Collectors]] can received 1 free [[Luminous Armor Crystal (Attuned)]] per month when charging an Extraction Gem with [[Aelira]].
** [[Aelira]] will not give you a 2nd [[Luminous Armor Crystal (Attuned)]] if you still have one in your inventory.  These free crystals cannot be banked up.
* You can purchase a [[Luminous Armor Crystal]] from [[Valorian]] as often as you need.

=== Step 5 - Offense or Defense Augmentation ===
''This step can be done at any time.  It is independant of the other steps.''

Now that you have your Enchantment, it's time to augment it for +1 Crit Dam (Offense) or +1 Crim Dam Resist (Defense).

Complete the necessary quests to:
# Obtain a [[Blank Augmentation Gem]]
# Gain access to a Faction Chapterhouse: [[Rossu Morta Chapterhouse]] or [[Whispering Blade Chapterhouse]]

Within the Chapterhouse, locate the room containing [[Garrin Farrow]] and [[Eleera Farrow]] and give them your [[Blank Augmentation Gem]] depending on the armor being upgraded:

|+ Augmentations
|-
! NPC !! Type !! Rating !! Augmentation
|-
| [[Eleera Farrow]] || Offense || +1 Crit Dam || {{Icon Link|Offensive Armor Remnant Augmentation}}
|-
| [[Garrin Farrow]] || Defense || +1 Crit Dam Resist || {{Icon Link|Defensive Armor Remnant Augmentation}}
|}

=== Step 6 - Luminous Armor Enchantment ===
Apply the Augmentation to your Enchantment and you have completed the Luminous Armor Enchantment.  It is now ready to apply to a matching piece of armor.

*'''This final Luminous Armor Enchantment is not attuned.''' It can be given to another character to upgrade their armor.
*'''Once applied, the piece of Luminous Armor can only be equipped by the character which applied it.''' It should only be applied by the character that will be wearing the armor being upgraded.
