What to do with blackice in mod15

Post by nmates »

Based on guildchat, some people didn't know what to do with blackice in mod15. Here's a quick guide: At the blackice forge -- top of the steps -- you can get a menu that allows you to instantly convert raw blackice to normal. Any amount. Vaporize your raw blackice backlog. Note: there's actually *2* interaction zones at the top of the forge -- one's the old useless one, and the other is useful. Move around slightly to find the other if you're having trouble.

Next, you can convert that blackice into AD (harder) or gamegold (easier). Here's how:

For AD, at the same place you did the raw conversion, buy greater blackice enchants. This requires some additional blackice crafting materials you may or may not have. FT noted that the greater corrupt blackice enchant is ~20K AD. As usual, always check the AH before starting this process -- buying is instant.

For gamegold, do NOT use the lesser/greater blackice enchants. Instead, use the tavern vendor, or Atenas Swift (fashion vendor). Both of them sell potions for 200 blackice that are 0.3750 gold each. Just buy 99 potions (max stack, easy to buy that many) is 19,800 blackice. Without leaving either vendor, double-click on that stack in your inventory for 37.12 gold. Repeat early and often

This is gold! I knew of turning Guild Marks into AD, but this is awesome! Thank Benn!
