How they Work
Once you posess an item with an empty augment slot of a particular type AND an augment which will go into that gear (and, hopefully, would result in a combination that you can equip and will benefit from):
- Augmenting Items: Find an Augmentation Pool. These are variously called chessboards or birdbaths; they are located at LDoN camps, in the Guild Hall, and in the Bazaar. Left-click it. A special two-slot tradeskill-like container should open. Place the augment in one slot, and the gear to be augmented in the other, and click combine; you will get a confirmation dialog box.
- Unaugmenting Items: You have two options here, either (cheaply) destroying the augment, removing it from your item and the game, or (in cost scaling with the potency of the augment) safely removing the augment for reuse/resale.
- Decide: Remove or Destroy?
- Destroying the Augment. Go to any LDoN or GoD transportation Magus and buy Augmentation Solvent for slot 1, 2, or 3 (not for slot by type, but by actual slot number - I know this is confusing, but it will make sense shortly).
- Safely Removing the Augment. Go to Mimzit Furnov (Butcherblock LDoN camp), the vendor gnome in the guild hall, or Quartermaster Andoro in Arcstone, and buy the Augmentation Distiller for class I - XVIII augments (by class, not slot).
- Then, once you have obtained your fluid of choice, left-click an augmentation pool, place the augmented item to be unaugmented in one slot, and the appropriate Solvent (destroyer) or Distiller (remover) in the other slot. The appropriate augment (for gear with more than one slot) should be highlighted and the remove/destroy button available if you have a valid combo, or else you should get a message that there is no augment which that distiller will remove. You will get a confirmation dialog box.
