Tuning Fork

The official GemStone IV encyclopedia.
Jump to navigation Jump to search

A tuning fork can boost a bard's Sonic Armaments. It is divided into categories (weapon, shield, and armor), and each category has unlocks to increase the given armament's enchantment by +5 with each unlock, up to a maximum of +15.

To summarize the impact, they can boost CS, SMRv2 spell calculations, DS (if you have fewer ranks than level, since most spells cap the bonus at level), and any other calculation that uses spell ranks. e.g., if you're a ranger with less than 100 Ranger Base spell ranks, it would boost your Mobility (618) spell giving you more DS/Dodge. They can only be set to a native spell circle (can't use the Arcane spell circle), and the enhancive is restricted to professions that can learn that circle.

Tuning forks have been available at the High End Scrip Shop at Bloodriven Village.
