Augmentation Guide (Rift)  

< Crafting

This guide changed dramatically with the 1.11 patch and Storm Legion expansion. To view the old guide, see Augmentation Guide - Pre-1.11

---

An Augment is an item which is used to enhance the stats on a crafted recipe. Adding an augment adds a prefix to the name of the item augmented depending on the stats affected. For example adding a Median Unwavering Augment to Soulbind Leather Brigandine while crafting makes it an Unwavering Soulbind Leather Brigandine. The amount of any particular stat augmented varies based upon the augment used and the level of the item being augmented.

Each Crafting Profession (except Runecrafter) can make six different Augments. With the exception of Apothecary, only one recipe per Profession is available at skill 50 (Lesser).

Rank	Skill (†)	Level
Lesser	1	20
Minor	75	30
Median	150	40
Excellent	300	50
Greater	300	50
Empyrean	340(300)	55
Stellar	375(300)	60

† Skill values in parentheses indicate the skill required to use the augment as opposed to the skill to make it when they are not the same.

Augments no longer drop in the world, nor can they be bought from vendors. Augments are now crafted using Salvaged and/or harvested materials. Recipes for Uncommon augments are purchased as training from your Craft trainer but recipes for Rare and Epic augments must be purchased from your Recipes vendor with Marks, or found as rare drops in dungeons.

If you need an Augment that you can't make you will have to get it from a craftsman that can, or buy it on from the Auctioneer.
