[Imbuing] SA damage types and eater types not going to be imbuable

[miniciti]

It was asked at the Live Developer Q&A on 12/1 if the SA damage types will be imbuable. The Devs said that there were no plans to make these new types imbuable. I'm assuming they were referring to the Kinetic Eater, Mana Drain, Hit Fatigue, etc properties that were new in SA.

Oh well. Was hoping to have some new stuff to imbue.

I'm actually quite glad that "some" things aren't gong to be imbuable. Granted it is nice to be able to make almost anything you could ever want nowadays, but I agree with what the one dev said. There has to be some reason to go out and hunt/grind for certain items as mob loot.

I think if they were to make those mods imbuable, then they would almost be forced to make the next rounds of artifact class items ungodly powerful in order to drive anyone out to try to collect the items.

Some of the Essences and other SA ingreds have no defined use right now, so I belive they still may be used in future to add the SA mods...
