Transmutation is a service to change the material of an item. For both versions of the service, the material type must be the same (metal to metal, wood to wood).

Lesser Transmutation

Lesser transmutation certificates are available in the High End Scrip Shop at Duskruin Arena in the form of a lesser transmutation message (Feb. 2021).

Read
You take a closer look at a lesser transmutation message.
A lesser transmutation message will grant the ability to have one item transmuted to another item's material. The two items must be of the same material type (metal to metal, wood to wood, etc.) and the transmuted material cannot have any innate properties (ie: no sephwir, coraesine, etc.) This will NOT affect enchant, flares, or any other properties that either item may or may not have. Some items could be ineligible due to existing scripts or properties. WHISPER details to the message about the specifics for your service and your availability. GAZE at the message to review your request.

When you are ready, REDEEM the message while holding the item to be worked on (if applicable), which will cause the message to crumble. All certificates MUST be redeemed within one week after the close of Duskruin Arena, or the certificate will be considered forfeit, and it will be destroyed. No exceptions!
Analyze
You analyze the transmutation message and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

A lesser transmutation message is a service certificate from Duskruin Arena's HESS that grants the bearer a specific service to be applied to an eligible item. Some services have limitations and requirements, and these details are typically outlined in the READ on the certificate.

USAGE:

GAZE: Review details stored from a previous WHISPER. If you need to adjust/change these details, you can repeat the WHISPER command to overwrite the existing information. You can also CLEAR a previous message with WHISPER <ITEM> CLEAR.

READ: See details about this message's service along with its expiration date.

REDEEM: Schedule your service! You must REDEEM the message in order to get the service completed. Some services require that you hold the service's destination item in your left hand.

WHISPER: Store information (such as availability, special requests, flare types, resistance types, etc.) onto the message to assist the attending GM in completing your service.
* Example: WHISPER <MESSAGE> I would like to add +5 heat resistance to my armor. I am available every day from 3PM and 9PM EST except when I'm not...

Greater Transmutation

Greater transmutation is a very rare service with fewer restrictions than the lesser version.

Lahke says, "This is to make an item into any other material that exists.  There are some restrictions, but death ore is allowed.  The properties will change, so if you have a fire flaring weapon and make it low steel, it will lose the fire flaring."
