First and foremost, I want to give a big hats off and shout out to GM Mestys. The man, the myth, the legend. He's a coding ninja, has unlimited patience, and I'm pretty sure he's got two brains. Without him, these belts wouldn't be possible!



From the creators of the handheld pylons, comes the Essence Belts! You’ll find them in the shop called the Essencetials!

The Essence Belts may be freely altered, as long as it makes sense to have pockets/compartments, and the description must include runes along its surface, either in the short, long or show description.

The essence belts will unlock special abilities and magical benefits depending on which essences are loaded into their pockets. The belt will hold one essence off the shelf, two essences at Tier 2, and a total of three essences at Tier 3.


The belts may hold up to 1000 charges of each essence. (i.e 1000 fire, 1000 air, etc). '''Regular elemental essences will add 25 charges'''. Greater elemental essences will add 250 charges.
The belt may be charged by DROPing specific alchemy ingredient essences into it. The current essences allowed are: Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.

The dark mithril belt is an Essence Belt, which can be charged by DROPping specific alchemy ingredient essences into it to grant its bearer unique abilities. The belt will accept the following essences: air, earth, fire, water.
If you have more than 1 essence loaded in the belt, you can WHISPER BELT <ELEMENT> to toggle which essence is active in the belt. Only those abilities will be usable, until you toggle to the next essence. Each Essence Ability has a separate cooldown per element. The Magic and Resistance abilities share cooldowns across elements.
slot 1: none
Once fueled, the active element can be set by WHISPERing to the belt with the name of the essence. The active element will determine the behavior of the belt's abilities.


The belt is currently tier 1 of 4, which means that it can accommodate up to 1 essence slot. An essence slot can be cleared via POKE, though this will remove all charges of that essence once confirmed. The belt currently has access to the following abilities: reactive flares, PUSH (resistance), PULL (attack strength bonus), RUB (special). It will also respond to the following verbs: TAP.
You can POKE BELT to remove the active essence, but its charges will be fully discarded.

Essence Belts were first introduced at Duskruin in August 2022 at the Essencetials shop. The essence belts will unlock special abilities and magical benefits depending on which essences are loaded into their pockets. The belt will hold one essence off the shelf, two essences at Tier 2, and a total of three essences at Tier 3.

The current essences allowed are: Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.

The belts may hold up to 1000 charges of each essence. (i.e 1000 fire, 1000 air, etc). Regular elemental essences will add 25 charges. Greater elemental essences will add 250 charges.

Tier 1

Analyze

The dark mithril belt may be freely altered, but it must make sense that it can have pockets/compartments of some kind, and must include the description of runes along its surface, in either the short or long or show description to match the item's messaging.

The dark mithril belt is an Essence Belt, which can be charged by DROPping specific alchemy ingredient essences into it to grant its bearer unique abilities.  The belt will accept the following essences: air, earth, fire, water.
  slot 1: none
Once fueled, the active element can be set by WHISPERing to the belt with the name of the essence.  The active element will determine the behavior of the belt's abilities.
