Two Toned boots ruined by Lab enchant.
The machine overwrote my boot resist implicit when I tried to enchant them.
Thanks for not warning me... Im so glad that my VERY EXPENSIVE BUILD ENABLING BOOTS are now useless. In no other game does enchanting something remove stats from it. So dumb. Last bumped on Sep 26, 2016, 3:19:17 PM

What kind of build are you running that an extra 15-20% to two resistances is build-enabling?

Since when is "ENCHANTMENT" spelled "IMPLICIT" and overwrites a pre-existing one without warning.
My complaint is that the pale blue text "enchantment" is NOTHING like a standard implicit and that the two, being different things, and having been arrived at in entirely different methodologies should not write to the same bloody field on the item in question. That is just lazy coding. 3xAncestral warchief totems using bringer of rain facebreaker and voidheart only has 4 slots to cap resists unless I want to compromise on performance... heck BOTH my characters this league only had four slots to cap resists. The whole damn point was to run around as a naked maori with no weapon and still kill the bloody shaper. My boots were carrying the correct 121 combined resists and supplying good life and movement speed... so... that is about 2 or 3 exalts worth ruined, without warning... by sloppy coding. |

Nothing sloppy about it, your brain just can't handle logic. Rage some more.

Also you can fix it putting some clothes on. I understand you are upset, but it isn't the end of the world. And now you know that enchantment modifies implicit mod of stuff. You live, you grow. |

The same thing can happen by corrupting an item that has an implicit, or corrupting an item that has an enchanted implicit. That's just the way item affixes work in this game. Did you think that your item was going to have 2 implicits? That is not the way it works. At least you learned, and it won't happen again.
U MAD?

I think this problem is common enough that GGG should really consider putting a small warning on the enchantment device. Doesn't even need to be a dialogue box, just a bit of text.
"Note: Using this device will overwrite any implicit modifiers on your item, such as previous enchantments." Simple, clean, and should be obvious enough to the kind of people with strong enough characters to get items with implicits. Need game info? Check out the Wiki at: https://www.poewiki.net/
