Won a handy dandy new Staff for one of my characters tonight. When I changed the staff's colour at the appearance changer the funky VFX on the staff disappeared. Colours changed appropriately though. Is this a known bug? Is there anyway to restore the VFX? |

If I remember right, VFX that are added as a property, rather than intrinsic, are lost on alterations sometimes. |

Shouldn't happen... see if it remains lost after server reset. And not quite correct Ninefingers. Its either a special property, or, VFX can apply simply because you have a certain amount of elemental damage. 1d4 doesn't cause it to appear, but 1d6 does. The only way to get it back if completely lost would be to edit the item... not really do-able. |

Elemental vfx is what I meant by intrinsic. |

This item did not have any sort of damage enhancement on it for the intrinsic VFX. It only granted extra spell slots... Sucks that I lost the effects though, as they were pretty nice. |

Server reset did not restore the VFX. |

Well poop.... OK. Thank you then. EDIT: I did notice that this same item ("Greater Mage's Staff" I think it is called) has about 30 charges on it, but no way to use those charges. Is that just a quirk of the item, or is it possible I lost some other feature of the weapon too? |

Item quirk. I noticed several items have charges that do nothing. |

Most custom items were created by duplicating something already there. Most likely this was made from a staff with charge-based powers, and the "charges" line in properties was never zeroed out. |

In this case the item description specifies both the use of the charges and how to recharge the staff; humorously both acts are reputed to detonate the staff in a conflagration of pain and death. |
