I know my smithing skill is not up to making these yet at 227, but does anyone understand how these are made?
I have been reading up on these on Eqtrader and I don't understand what they are talking about.
Can anyone who understands these recipes explain them to me. The research parts and where do you get the other items besides the research stuff. These augs would make my GM gear the BOMB. My guild raids enough so that if the mob that drops the other parts is a raid mob all I have to do is put it up in the target forum.

Any help with these would be a benefit for me and others as we have a GM tailor in our guild that is having a little trouble understanding them. If someone has a link to a easier, understanding of these please link.

You need a maxed tinkerer... the rest is easy.

You need a basic 4 things for the DoD augs:

1) Ambleshift's Amazing Automated Amalgator (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21438&menustr=035000000000)
(or AAAA, 4A's in some servers). Click for recipe info. This piece is the most expensive one in the bazaar and the most tedious to do. It poofs on combine.



2) Mechanoinstructions
These consists of a couple of things: first you need to get a mechanotablet. Each mechanotablet will yield a different focus effect. For a list go here (http://eq.forums.thedruidsgrove.org/showthread.php?t=12780). You get mechanotablets by killing Crypt Reapers in Corathus Creep. I'm not sure but I think you can get them by killing other mechanical models in the zone, however they might trash your faction. Usually Creep Reapers are super camped in some servers and it takes a while to get a mechanotablet.

After you have your desired mechanotablet, you need to make a Scrindite's Mechanoinstruction Holepoker (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21424&menustr=035000000000). This is mostly a tinkered item. This is the container in which you will combine your mechanotablet with other stuff to make it into a mechanoinstruction. Holepokers, if i'm not mistaken are reusable, which means you can ask someone to make it for the entire guild.

You need to make an Instruction Parchment (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21009&menustr=), Scrindite's Instruction Ink (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21070) and also you need a Scrindite's Mechanoinstruction Manual... which is no drop and is also spell researched, so I'm assuming this whole entire combine may be done only by pure casters. Find a friend, get him the items and get your mechanoinstruction.



3) Seals
You can do these by smithing, tailoring or tinkering. It's not no drop so you can ask a friend to help. You need a seal pattern which can only be made by the book you get from the super simple DoD task that your tradeskill quest guy in your hometown gives you. These are pretty simple to make, here are some examples with Last blood (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21358) and with Bazu Stone (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=21351&menustr=035000000000).



4) Epicthieck's Lubricating Goo (http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=20821&menustr=035000000000)
Super easy to make. Click for recipe info.



Final Combine

Combine the goo + your seal + mechanoinstruction in the AAAA to make your aug! :)

Thanks a lot Nimchip.
Now the only thing I still don't quite understand is Part 2 the tablet. Where do you get the focus items to make the tablet?
This is much clearer than Eqtrader by far for me. I will start working on this stuff tonight.
BTW what is trivial for the Tinkering or smithing part?

Fixed it. You get them from creepers in Corathus Creep.

all the tinkering stuff trivials 300+ so you need max and a little luck :(

OK going to work on it tonight thanks Nimchip.
