User:Mosen/Incense Data
From A Tale in the Desert
Jump to navigationJump to searchTheories based on Observations
- Herb additives affect the scent of the incense, AND the quality, but not the stats. Although adding a herb may change the scent, the scent may not always be the same depending on the starting point, which leads me to believe that given the RIGHT herb, the starting scent can be fortified to create a better quality incense.
- Scent can change without affecting quality, see tests where musk changed directly to pine but quality was maintained.
- Resin additives affect the quality AND the stats but not the scent. as observed.
- Resin additives change quality +/- per deben based on potency of the resin. While stout palm will affect the quality of an incense
with +CON and -STR by +1 quality, giant cricklewood added +12 quality and chakkanut tree added +11 quality.
- Duration is about 15 minutes for all qualities and different stat adjectives not sure if and what affects duration. (Time is taken from approx time of leaving area of incense burner).
- Even if stats are altered to different combinations, adjectives remain the same
- Adjectives MAY indicate an acceptible scent, or a scent which gives the most quality boost. NOT PROVEN
- Stats can be altered by addition of resin without reaching q0 or greatly diminishing quality. As observed. Similar to other theory based on scent change without diminishing quality. Therefore: Scent and Stat may change without diminishing quality.
- Positive Stat MAY be changed by using a resin which exhibits the same negative stat as the current negative. NOT PROVEN
- Adding a positive resin has a diminishing effect on quality As observed.
- When quality gains have diminished from adding a resin too many times, a greater boost in quality can be achieved using an alternate resin. But only if the alternate resin fulfills some criteria, otherwise you go into negative territory.
Tests TODO
- Prove or disprove whether a certain scent and/or feeling effects which resins will provide the best quality boost. Inarus had a feeling that scent would change which resins were more likely to give a quality boost, while i thought that scent and resin were disconnected. This connection could be proven by a test which starts with a scent other than flowers but with giddy constitution and a bit of weakness as per test #9.
If there is a connection then the benefit to quality given by stout palm, or giant cricklewood resin would be significantly different to the outcome of resin test #1
