Other Item Powers
There are a variety of other powers that you can embed in an item. Many are very useful; some are not so useful. The following describes these powers with EP cost for each power and a few comments from my own experience.
Power |
Condition I |
Condition II |
EP Cost |
Comments |
Extra Spell Points |
Season |
Winter Spring Summer Fall |
500 per season |
Very handy. The prior problems appear to have been fixed and the extra spell points seem to work as they should. If you don't mind taking damage, you can enhance all but one of your magic shools and take extra points during all seasons and add the side effect of taking damage in sunlight. All of that will fit into a torc. Damage is minimal unless you need to loiter (serious owie). |
Moon Phase |
Full Half New |
200 per phase |
||
Near |
Undead |
700 |
A nifty effect when combined with Spell Absorption. If your magica is fully charged, you won't be able to absorb spells. Adding this effect will usually allow you to absorb one or two spells since the power is only operational when you're near the offending critter. |
|
Daedra |
800 |
|||
Humanoids |
900 |
|||
Animals |
1200 |
|||
Potent vs. |
Undead |
while item is equipped |
800 |
A VERY handy power to have if you know what you're going up against. For example, in Medora's Tower you know you're going to be dealing with a lot of undead; in the Mantella Crux you'll be dealing with Daedra; etc. Normal damage versus everything else. |

Regenerates Health |
All the time |
while item is equipped |
4000 |
Health regeneration is slow and does not operate while loitering. It does operate while resting, though. Not a very handy power from my experience. |
in sunlight |

in darkness |
3000 |

Vampiric Effect |
at range |
while item is equipped |
2000 |
If you're going to put a power on a weapon, this is the one to use. Health transfer is small, but the target gets no saving throw if you take "when strikes". |
when strikes |
1000 |
|||
Increased Weight Allowance |
+25% |
while item is equipped |
400 |
A nice thing to have if you're not planning on visiting your wagon for a while. Additional effects and items are not cumulative. |
+50% |
600 |
|||
Repairs Items |
while item is equipped |
900 |
Magic item repair will not work unless "magicrepair 1" has been added to your z.cfg file and you're running the latest patch. Items are repaired based on their location in your inventory (top first). Multiple items with this effect will accelerate repairs and can work on more than one item at a time. |
|
Absorbs Spells |
while item is equipped |
1500 |
I've found that this spell absorption is more effective than the "Cast When ..." versions of the spell. |
|
Enhances Skill |
pick a skill |
while item is equipped |
900 per skill |
Adds about 15 points to the affected skill. Skills enhanced by items with this power can exceed 100 and the enhanced skill will be used for determining your rank within the guild. Multiple enhancements in a single item are not effective, but enhancements from multiple items are. |
Feather Weight |
always (even when unequipped) |
100 |
Reduces weight of the item to .25 kg. Effect is always operational, but item weighs normal amount if you try to put it on your wagon. Think about it: a full suit of daedric armor weighs 1.75 kg if each piece is enchanted with feather weight. I've never had a piece of armor wear out when this was the only enchantment on it. This effect will also negate the additional weight side effect that comes from some soul bindings, but it must be added BEFORE adding the soul bound side efect. |
|
Strengthens Armor |
while item is equipped |
700 |
+5 to armor all around. Multiple enchantments will not work, neither will multiple items. Only one enhancement to a customer. And I'd really like to know how the guy on page 52 of the manual got up to 40 armor class. |
|
Enhances Talents |
Acute Hearing |
while item is equipped |
500 |
I've not found that these enchantments will actually bestow the talent, but it will enhance an existing talent. Maybe you'll have better luck with it than I did. |
Athleticism |
600 |
|||
Adrenaline Rush |
600 |
|||
Good Reputation with |
Commoners |
while item is equipped |
1000 |
Tired of sucking up to all of those different factions just so you can get a decent shot at a quest or some information? Here's one way to fix it without performing endless quests. There is no obvious rep increase (it doesn't change the rep with the factions in the faction.txt file), but they appear to be a bit friendlier when you're dealing with them. I'd guess there is a modifier to the reaction roll when you talk to a member of the group. |
