HESS CERTIFICATES Questions and Answers
Why do some certificates take longer than others?
Chances are that the certificate you are hoping to have completed on a weapon or armor require review. If this happens, then please understand that it takes time for us to review them. We want to make sure that you don’t have complications with your item further down the line.
Are all of the HESS certificates out for this run?
Yes, at this time all HESS certificates are out.
If I have Rotflares on my weapon with Dispell and I want Flare Affinity, how do I do that?
Go to the dabbler and remove your rot flares, then go purchase the necessary certificates.
Does Flare Affinity work with paladin bond flares?
It does not.
Does Flare Affinity work with scripted flares?
It does not.
When do I have to start paying a surcharge?
After your fifth service on an individual item.
Can I reforge something with an Ethereal String on it?
For Ethereal Strings, they only work on a dagger, handaxe, war hammer, quoit, discus, javeline, throwing dagger, throwing axe, and spear. So your could reforge from (example) a dagger to a handaxe, but no other edged weapon profile would be eligible.
Longbow to hand xbow is fine?
Yes, as long as the old and new weapon use exactly the same weapon skill.
Can brawling weapons be reforged to UCSE?
No, brawling weapons and UCS cannot be converted either way.
Dabbler will now remove Fatal Afflares for you
