Hey All,
This may have been present for some time and I am just now noticing it, but...............

When I log in through the gateway I notice that all my armor items have an additional enchant slot. All helmets, gauntlets, shields, and greaves have two. All armor has three. Is this something that is coming up, or just a "hic-up" in my browser? I only se this in the GATEWAY. not in game.

Regards,

    New items have overload slots in them, even though the piece of gear your wearing doesn't have the slot the Gateway shows it as an available open slot.

    I don't think that is what the OP meant. Gear appears with a standard enchant slot - even if it has none. There seems to be one extra enchant slot on all armor pieces when viewed from the Gateway.

    I do suspect it's tied to the overload slot, but it isn't just you, DrHunter123.

    Thats for the armor reinforce enchants you can make, in game you cant see them but in Gateway they appear as another slot.

    The extra slot is for the armor reinforecement kits, I think...

    All these items have regular enchantment slots but because of the ability of some items to have overload slots the gateway just shows an open placeholder. It doses the same thing for armor and weapon enchants.

    MAN!!!!

    I was really hoping that I could go back and add overload stuff to my old gear!!!!
    Maybe it is coming? I am a casual player, so I don't have all the new fangeld armor, weapons etc. I would however like of of the new glyphs to equipment. Just imagine the variety there could be out there is we could add new/more/different items to our existing items. I wold like ot be able to ADD rather than REPLACE.

    My (I play a GF) Knight Captain, and High General armor set show three slots in the gateway. One for the enchantment stone, one for the "armor' enchantment, and one for.............. not real sure.

    BTW. this ain't "new gear". I have had the KC set prior to the nerf.
