Charges?

[Eltharion]

Hmmm...

have read that your suppose to be able to use items from your inventory with charges?

just like potions, however when i try this i get "you need to war item"?...so is this in future patch or previous or?

someone enlighten me

 

[-Nxs-]

Put the item from your inventory onto the quickbar somewhere then press the default use key which is 'E' unless you changed it - then the number on the quickbar to activate it

Yeah you can only use charges on items that are equipped these days. Originally you could fire them from inventory - I got a lot of requests for MP wool gloves when Alchemy first went live....

100% wrong

U can use crafted staffs with charges applied on them from the inventory until a later patch when they fix it so that you have to have it equipped in order to fire it. On my eld i have 2 staffs in my inv, one with an Intcharge and one with an AFcharge so yes I'm sure it works.

Beware though that by firing a charged item you start the timer on using a pot aswell for some mystical reason. Totally sucks imo since they arent really related to each other.

And i can say

You are 100% wrong

I have staff with AF charges on and only way to be able to fire it is to put it in the 2H slot and equip it or nothing happens.

So maybe its some kinda bug that dosent apply for everyone?

dunno, Zell can do it aswell so /shrug

dropped items dont seem to work same way at least, those I have seen have had to be equipped.

smells like a bug tbh

it get fixed in 1.64 or 1.65 tho.

 

[Eltharion]

so this seems only to work on crafted weapons with charges??

since i have gloves made for the charges..will try with a weapon later today..and hope it work..cause not much fun to change to a suit of AF4 RF gloves in the middle of a fight to use a charge =P


and yeah, am aware that it affects pot timer, and only fair imo

Using charges from inventory do only work with crafted procs on weapons. Thats it... The amount of charges is also only determined by the quality on your item not the material. I use 1.5 dps MP daggers, and I get 10 charges on each dagger, and these I CAN use from my backpack. This will however be changed in 1.66? so that you have to equip the item, burn off charge and then unequip your charged item. (If you dont want to have it on your regular armor that is )
