[ Combined two-handed weapon]
Two-handed weapons such as greatswords, polearms, staffs, spellbooks, orbs, and bows can be combined.
Combining can be done through the new two-handed weapon combining NPC placed in each city’s remodeling shop.
![Imagem](http://staticpw.na.aiononline.com/powerbook/aion/52/32/0c0d76b7396e6e44da35628d.jpg)
The basic requirements for combining are as follows: The main two-handed weapon’s item level must be higher than or equal to the secondary two-handed weapon’s item level. The two weapons must also be the same type.
The following changes take place following the combining process
* Basic stats: 20% of the secondary weapon’s basic attack power and 20% of its magic boosting power are added to the main weapon. However, stats that are lower on the secondary weapon are not changed.
* Option: The secondary weapon’s options are added to the main weapon. When both the main and the secondary weapons have attack speed, casting speed, and increasing options, only the higher value number will be applied.
* Manastone slots: The secondary weapon’s manastone slots are added to the main weapon. If a secondary two-handed weapon is combined while manastones are socketed in it, the manastones will be transferred to the main weapon along with the slots.
The manastone slots from the two weapons are kept distinct from each other. This means each can be socketed separately. For example, when an attempt to socket a manastone in one of the main weapon’s original sockets fails, the remaining main weapon’s manastones disappear, but the secondary weapon’s manastones remain intact.
When socketing manastones on a combined two-handed weapon, a socketing screen that allows players to select the slot for socketing appears, from which they can select either the original manastone slot or one of the slots that was added by the secondary weapon.
![Imagem](http://staticpw.na.aiononline.com/powerbook/aion/97/42/f64f80bbfeb505b791013326.jpg)
A combined weapon cannot be traded or stored in account or legion warehouses.
The combining process destroys the secondary weapon.
Players can undo the combining process by speaking with the two-handed weapon combining NPC. The primary weapon will once again become tradable and storable.
Weapons destroyed in the combining process are not restored when uncombined.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. A socketing supplement, which greatly increases the enchantment stone and manastone-socketing success rate, has been added.
The socketing supplement has lesser, regular, and greater versions. The socketing rate bonus increases with better grade supplements.
Lesser socketing supplements can be purchased from the Remodeling Merchant and the Medicine Merchant in Sanctum, Eltnen, Heiron, Pandaemonium, Morheim, and Beluslan.
The regular and greater supplements are not yet available, but will be added in a later patch.
Players who have socketing supplements in their cube when attempting to socket an enchantment stone or manastone will see a screen allowing them to select the particular stone and supplement they wish to use.
Players who do not have supplements in their cube will continue the socketing process as before (without a socketing screen.) An exception is made when socketing a manastone in a combined two-handed weapon. This process will always display the socketing screen.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
3. Class items’ max socketing value has been increased from +10 to +15.
Socketing from +1 ~ +10 has the same success rate as before.
From +11, the success rate is lower.
When socketing fails at +11~+15, the value falls back to +10.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4. Strengthening armor with an enchantment stone results in an increase in physical defense in addition to HP and physical critical resistance rate bonuses.
The increased stat does not appear at +0 socketing status.

5. A new level has been added to the crafting system.

Once players become Greater Masters, their maximum level in the skill increases to 499.
Players can become Greater Masters of two crafting skills.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
6. Vitality-Extracting and Aether-Extracting master levels have been raised.
Players who reach level 399 for either of the extracting skills can go to the Extracting Master NPC for the relevant skill. They must then complete a quest and pay a fee to advance to the rank of Extracting Master.
Players who become Extracting Masters will have a new maximum skill level of 499.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
12. A limited edition system has been added.
Certain items have a set quantity that can be sold. They will be marked as "sold out" when stocks have been exhausted.
Sold-out items will be restocked after a period of time. The length of time varies according to the item.
There are also items that have a maximum quantity that can be purchased by each character. In these cases, only a set number can be purchased by a player regardless of stock levels.
If a player hits the maximum quota, they must wait for a certain amount of time to pass before being able to purchase the item again. As before, the length of time varies according to the item.
Items that cannot be purchased because they are either sold out or because the player has exceeded the max quantity they can purchase are marked in red.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
13. Materials Merchant NPCs and Refining Stone Merchant NPCs responsible for selling aether and refining stones respectively have been added.
