[General] Enhancing help

[DJAd]

I'm looking at remaking some of my woodland armour suit but this time enhancing the items. I will get one of the 100% success tools. I've never tried it before so just have a few questions.

I understand that I need to make with plain wood, imbue then enhance. If I use bloodwood for example it says it gives "2 Hit Point Regeneration".

Does the enhance also do anything to the resists, and is it possible to workout what resists will be boosted from the enhancing? I'd like to use heartwood but the random just puts me off, and I don't have a fortune to spend.

Anyone got any tips or can point a rookie in the right direction?

First of all you might want to use enough Powder Of Fortifying before you imbue your new armour pieces. It would be a shame to put millions of gold and the Forged Metal Of Artifacts in your new gear and end up with like 31 durability!
Most players will use Heartwood and not Bloodwood for enhancing. The resists that you will gain by enhancing are fixed and can be looked up here:
Board - UOGuide, the Ultima Online encyclopedia
I am not sure Hit Point Regeneration will help all that much. But that's up to you if you don't want to face the risks.
If you want to go all the way you might want to consider Runic Re-Forging. Good luck to you.

Ok great, yeah I always POF first.

So if I were to use heartwood to enhance it adds the following resists to the existing ones?

2,3,2,7,2 ? (+ random property)

Is that how it works?

I haven't done this yet, but I think this is the case.
