So no SC = 0, SC = 100%
Spell channeling comes with FC-1. It's part of the mod. When you get an item with SC and no FC-1 it means the item rolled FC1 as well. Hence that's 200% total in intensity. On a weap with no spell channeling and FC1, the FC1 alone is 100% intensity.
The way I see it. We know if something has pile of mods on it or not. We know if they are good group that compliment our needs or not. The question is answered there if its a keeper and has room for another mod or just one adjusted. Thing is we'll be tearing a butt load of stuff apart so we can Imbued others. Not to imbued for max but to tip it over to a higher level to unravel. I see us doing a load of tedious Imbueding to get from 25 skill to 120 leg. True the need to know if an item needs low or med ingredient to put it over 400% with a 5th mod.
I heard yes, meaning my excellent verite Ecru Citrine Ring is doomed to remain merely excellent. Fortunately I can craft more Ecru rings and Imbue those. I'll keep the verite one in my chest of keepsakes as it was my first EP ring and best one to date.

Just saw on the FoF that lecurion (sp?) says Item ID skill will be used by Artificers to predict what ingreds an item will produce when unravelled ...
Armour - 5 pieces of LMC 8, LRC 20, MR 2 pieces with decent resists. Use HOM for head slot?
I'm sorry if this has been explored more since the first page.
I say an intensity point bonus, say 25-50% for GM Item ID, stacked on top of whatever you're unraveling. Arms Lore gives you a bonus for making, Item ID could give a bonus for un-making.
i totally agree. some sort of bonus and i'm in. seems pointless to make a pointless skill just as pointless as it was. pointless...
So far only things that can be enhanced or smelted can be Imbued for weapons and armor. Those invasion weapons can niether be enhanced or imbued so I'd not worry. The wands are the only out there item.
. thx .... . THX alot.Sounds like a job for Item ID!
I'd be fine with that - if all the items that should be enhanceable/smeltable (or even craftable) were made so.
. I have killer smith hammers.A tongue in cheek suggestion to devs, possible use of the skill. Actually I'd much rather Item ID give the aforementioned unraveling point bonus, make it of some real use to the Artificer instead of the current plan which makes it more of a looting support skill (which nearly nobody's ever going to use as raising Item ID on a hunting char would simply make a dent in their actual hunting ability).
I put together a spreadsheet to calculate the maximum hit mana leech and hit life leech percentages based on your formula and the base weapon speed information on Stratics. Don't know how to upload the spreadsheet so others can get to it, so just going to cut and paste it below. Note that the calculated figures are rounded down to the closest integer and capped at a maximum of 100.

800 cap sounds about right.. I wouldn't expect more than that but to reduce it way back is to contradict what we've accepted as the norm in an item-based game. I often loot jewels with 30+ (useful) skill on them and, like you say, 800 is easily reached without going through too much trouble.
raising the cap was addressed by Mark 'Chiefshade' Steelman on the UO Facebook page on 6/24: (question from player in bold)
Actually, the way I was suggesting would fit things like the Crystalline Ring, Dread's revenge, Shadow Dancers and Midnight Bracers perfectly. You're forgetting Powerscrolls, and that AFAIK all the skills boostable by jewelry (and most boostable by other items) can be scrolled to a 120 cap.
This is from a thread on the Siege forum.Ok what about a wep that already has 6 mods? We can still imbue them? I actually purchased the weapon with the hopes of removing the hit area mod and replacing it with ssi but if we wont be able to do that then I will have to find a different use for this monster.
no. but you can fortify to 255 and thaen imbue. and after using and durability gets low just repair it.
