Dragonhide Equipment
When you go on a dragon lair, you are rewarded with dragonhide. What do you do with that dragonhide? One of the options is to make special dragonhide equipment. Each color hide has a different attribute. Some are for hp, some are for mana, etc. The color and number of hides you use to make the eq impact the stats of the item.

[hide]Myllrin's Workshop[edit]
In order to make dragonhide eq, you must go to Myllrin's Workshop ("shop") on the bottom level of the Catacombs. On the map, you'll look for a room that looks like a dead end room, except it has an open exit at the end. Once you find shop, go in and type "riddle". Myllrin will telepath you a riddle that you must answer correctly within 60 seconds. This room is NO-COMM, so you can't ask for help in game. Here is a list of Catacomb Riddles. Remember - you can only have 1 riddle per 24 hours.
- Note: If you get riddle correct but do not make the item for whatever reason (not enough hides, etc.) you can come back to shop and make an item without re-doing riddle. Every correct riddle = 1 item made.
Equipment[edit]
There are two types of dragonhide: metallic and chromatic. You cannot mix and match types in a single item. The hides you choose must be either all metallic or all chromatic.
Attributes[edit]
Equipment Locations[edit]
Ruby hides are neither metallic nor chromatic; they can be used with both types and give a special proc to the item.
You can use a maximum of two different colors (in addition to Ruby) when you make an item, but each location has a limit of how many hides you can use.
You can make an equipment item for each wearable location, but you can only wear a maximum of two (including weapon) at a time.

How to Make Dragonhide EQ[edit]
Once you have successfully completed riddle, it is time to make your equipment. If you type MAKE while in shop, you'll get a list of variables you need to set in order to make your item.
- Make Location: set the slot you're making an item for (make loc body)
- Make Color 1: set the first color dragonhide you're going to use (make c 1 brass)
- Make Color 2: set the second color dragonhide you're going to use (make c 2 bronze)
- Make Quantity 1: set the quantity of the first color (make q 1 4)
- Make Quantity 2: set the quanity of the second color (make q 2 4)
- Make Special: use this if you want to add ruby hide (make special)
- Make Done: use this when you're finished setting the variables. Myllrin will hand you your item. (make done)
The example above would give a 40hp/40mana body item with ruby proc.
- Note: 1 hide = 1 hr/dr/ss = 10 hp/mana
Weapons[edit]
Each class can also make a dragonhide weapon. These are unique in that you must have one of each color hide, including ruby, in order to make it. You can't customize the attributes - each weapon has its own stats. You will, of course, hope that you get a max weapon.
- Warrior: the mirrorblade - Lev(0) Loc(wield) AM AC AT 16d4 AM AT AC dhide hr(9) dr(5) SKL/SPL: disarm (success +8%) - max is 10/6
- Thief: a dagger of chromatic metal - Lev(0) Loc(wield) AM AC AW LNG BSER 8d5 AW AM AC hr(7) dr(5) SKL/SPL: backstab (success +17%) - max is 8/6
- Mage: the staff of the wyrm - Lev(0) Loc(wield) AC AT AW 2H LNG 8d7 AW AT AC mana(120) hps(50) infmage(2)
- Cleric: the hammer of the lizard - Lev(0) Loc(wield) AM AT AW 7d8 AW AM AT mana(40) hps(60) infcle(2)
To make the weapon, make sure you have one of each color hide, complete riddle correctly, and then type the following:
- make location weapon
- make done
