Overview

Salvage EnhancementConverter.png

Enhancement Converters can be used to convert an enhancement to another within the same rarity (Uncommon, Rare, Very Rare, PvP or Archetype Origin Enhancement) or category (Melee Damage, Healing, Resist Damage, etc.). Alternatively, this salvage can be used to convert an enhancement within the same set for three times the cost in Enhancement Converters. You can access your enhancement converter interface by clicking on Enhancement on your power tray and then clicking on Convert. -Info window description in the game.

Enhancement Converters were introduced into the game with the release of Issue 22.

Enhancement Converters are Character Bound. But the converted enhancement may not be character bound and may be moved to an alt or traded.


Description

Enhancement Converters can turn any Set Enhancement (even Boosted ones) into a different Enhancement from that same Set for 3 Converters.

Converters can turn any Set Enhancement into one from a different Set but with the same rarity for 1 Converter.

For Uncommon and Rare IOs, there is a Category conversion where the IO turns into an Enhancement from another Set within its own Slotting Category (e.g., Melee, Healing, Ranged, etc...). When converting within a Category, Uncommons may become Rares and vice versa, but they may not become Very Rares.

The chart below shows the possible types of conversions:

Convert within Set Convert within Rarity Convert within Category
Costs 3 Converters Costs 1 Converter Costs 2 Converters
Purple IO Converts to any Purple within its Set other than itself Converts to any other Purple except one from its own Set N/A
PvP IO Converts to any PvP within its Set other than itself Converts to any other PvP except one from its own Set N/A
SBO Converts to any SBO within its Set other than itself Converts to any other SBO except one from its own Set N/A
ATO Converts to any ATO within its Set other than itself Converts to any other ATO except one from its own Set N/A
SATO Converts to any SATO within its Set other than itself Converts to any other SATO except one from its own Set N/A
Common & Uncommon Set IOs Converts to any IO within its Set other than itself Converts to any other Set IO of same Rarity (Uncommon to Uncommon or Rare to Rare; but not into Purples, PvPs, SBOs, nor ATOs) other than one from its own Set Converts to any other IO of the same level from with its Category regardless of Common or Uncommon Rarity. Choice not given if none exists.*

* E.g., A level 50 Doctored Wounds (Uncommon) will become a random level 50 Numina's Convalescence (Rare) and vice versa. But neither would become a Panacea PvP Healing IO, nor a level 40 Miracle.

Note that Converters only work on Enhancements from Sets. They do not work on Common IOs or other types of enhancements.

Enhancement Converters can be purchased in-game from Reward Merit Vendors, Alignment Merit Vendors, Astral Christy, and Empyrean Michael.

Below is the number of converters you can get for turning in a set amount of Merits and paying a set amount of Inf.

1 10 Reward Merits 250,000
10 1 Alignment Merit* 2,500,000
2 3 Astral Merits 500,000
5 1 Empyrean Merit 1,250,000

For an easier comparison of costs, this table shows the cost in Merits and Inf for 10 Converters:

Reward Merits 100 Reward Merits 2.5 Million INF

Alignment Merits*
50 Reward Merits 22.5 Million INF**
Alignment Merits* 1 Alignment Merits 2.5 Million INF

** This includes the 20 Million Inf for conversion plus 2.5 Million Inf for purchasing the Converter
