In-game options to unslot traceries?

[squirle]

Now that there is some official information out about the Li. Unslotting traceries is very specifically only talking about unslot 1 or unslot all traceries with mithril coins

Will there be a non-premium/in-game way to unslot tracery. The same as Essene removal scrolls are out there?

[Calding]

Last time I tried (I think it was beta 4), I could just use essence removal scrolls to remove all of them at once. Not sure if that was an oversight that will be locked down or if it was intended behaviour.

Yup, that's why I repeated the question in the feedback thread for this iteration but got no answer.

If the essence reclamation scrolls stop working then it's only Mithril (or accept you're losing the tracery & overwrite it)

Just got an answer on stream that there will be a new tracery reclamation scroll. And currently essence reclamations scroll work, but not eventually.

So the new LI system requires yet another item, tracery reclamation scrolls, which will be necessary to remove traceries which are disabled once the level range is exceeded? Any indication of how these new scrolls are to be obtained?

On Bullroarer you could write over old traceries with new ones for free, just like you could essences.

You can freely overwrite traceries with higher level ones.

I was able to track this question down: Essence Reclamation Scrolls are currently working to remove Traceries, and while these scrolls will be replaced with a new item serving a similar function in the future, it is working as intended that they be able to remove Traceries for now.

I think the answer is pretty obvious. Traceries are bound to character iirc, so, overwrite would be the only desirable action anyway. No point in keeping an old tracery that is no good as it's level has been surpassed, if it cannot be passed to another alt.

But why would anyone want or need to remove them (unless they make a mistake slotting one, or players want to swap and change), they are bound to character (which really sucks) so no good to keep for other alts.

Likely scenario: a tracery is bugged and doesn't work, so you unslot it.

Unlikely but theoretically possible scenario: the bug is eventually fixed and you want to re-slot it.

"higher level" Does that mean higher level range? Or same level range but higher quality (e.g. gold vs. purple) or both?

Or maybe you want to tweak the bonuses on the LI by using a different type of tracery, but don't want to destroy the old one. Maybe they make class changes that make such a change desirable, but you're concerned that they might subsequently nerf something so you want to keep the option to switch back....

All of the above, including same level range and same quality, or lower in either. They're like essences, you can overwrite them with literally any other tracery that will fit in the slot. Unslotting them is only necessary if you want to preserve the old one.

How come essence reclamation scrolls are being replaced with a new item? It seems to me we should convert all relic removal scrolls to essence reclamation scrolls * a certain number (i.e. you get 5 essence reclamation per relic removal), and just use essence reclamation scrolls going forward.

There's no need to introduce yet another item into this game, if anything we should be consolidating and making things more streamlined.

Could not get essence reclamation scrolls to do anything with the new LIs. When clicking on them only the armor and jewelry shows up as selections for reclamation. All drag and drop options with the reclam scroll have no effect. This is contrary to my experience in BR Build 2 where using the reclamation scroll did remove all "essences" on the LI. So either we need a new item or the method to apply the current scroll is beyond me.

1. Get it out to disenchant into scripts?

2. Get it out to use on a 3rd LI, intended for another trait line?
