Subject: The Dabbler Defined

Hi everyone -

I wanted to give you all a brief overview of the Dabbler (since she has had a slight facelift since making her debut - or, will shortly...) since there seems to be a little confusion about what she does, what the process is to remove properties, and what happens after you speak with her.

The Dabbler is really good at removing simple properties from non-complex items. Unscripted items with properties that you are trying to remove will give you the easiest time. But once an item is scripted, the Dabbler will have increasing difficulty in knowing whether or not an existing property is part of the script, or something that was added/applied completely independent of the script on the item. Asking her to remove a script is also a little easier*, but until the review team takes a peek at it, you'll have to be patient and let them review it. Once I get word that it is either approved or denied, I'll get that information added to her ASAP, and when you return and ask her again, she will reply one of three ways:

1) Sorry, that script has been denied for automatic removal.
2) No, I haven't heard anything back on that yet.
3) Yes! I did hear back, and I can help you. Let's get started!

The above responses are ONLY relative to script requests.

If you are requesting to have a property removed, and the Dabbler decides it's just a bit too complex for her to handle for you, she may give you the option to BUY a property removal certificate, in which case you can then REDEEM it (with the item in hand that has the property you want removed), and it will be handled just like any of the other certificates from HESS. (This does NOT count toward a service, and it will NOT be subject to a surcharge. It also does not use the attune system.)

You can't go straight to "just let me buy a certificate", though -- you need to go through the process. This process helps educate her in this process, and she'll retain the knowledge for subsequent runs.

This will be live in just a little bit.

Let me know if you have any questions!

The Dabbler has been through an extensive training session, and, while she still has some classes to finish, she has learned a little bit more about your scripts.

The following scripts are approved for removal:

Forest Armor
MistBlade
Sprite Cloak
Anfelt Blunt
Anfelt Edged
Anfelt Pole
Anfelt Shield
Anfelt Armor
Anfelt Helm
Polearm Flares
WeaponArmor
FancyFeet

Knockout Flares
EZscript
Greater Moods
Fluffy UCSE
Ghule Cloak
ZestyBow
Briar Flares
Sigil Staff

The following scripts are denied for automated removal. (You can still purchase a removal certificate to see if a GM can manually remove it; removal is not guaranteed.)

MorphingRunestaff
LongShow
MorphingArmor
TheOldOneUAC
HolyWeapon(WaveDancer)
FerasWeapon
HalflingArmor

There are hopefully more updates coming this go-around...

Subject: Dabbler updates

There are a few updates to the Dabbler that you may want to know about!

1. She will now remove (most) temporary enhancements. You can ASK DABBLER ABOUT TEMPORARY to remove those temporary enhancements that you find on gear and weapons out in the wild.

2. She can now remove weighting/sighting above the natural weighting sighting of things like claidhmores, naginatas, sephwir, etc.

If you have any questions or experience any trouble with these, please let me know!
