Armor and Weapon Encrusting

Because of the "keep encrusting the same piece of equipment," I limit my use of encrusting to "special" equipment done one at a time and limiting the stockpiles to use as a source.

@xXWhit3CrowXx I considered it, but NOT_IMPROVED applies to any and all decorations, so it's quite limiting. You'd only ever be able to encrust a single piece of armor/weapon once, and it would have to be done first before any other decoration. You couldn't encrust armor that you'd already studded with metal, for instance.

U should add [NOT_IMPROVED] to modifiers of reagent , they just keep encrusting the same piece of equipment.I have a armor thats worth 200k dwarf bucks it feels cheaty.

The value should increase. I just tested encrusting a copper cap with onyx and the value increased from 20 to 60. I added schorl and it increased to 100.

I don't know if changing the sprites is possible. There are some tokens for graphic variations but it looks like only for some furniture items and for default decorations. I'm no artist anyway.

i agree with the comment below, my best idea would be to look at similar value changes with Totems, ect and add it to the value path on the armor and weapons? it would be epic if i can make my blue Sapphire Steel Axes with my Cloaks on another mod, with absalute value on them compared to peasants [also, hell, it would make thievery a issue which could be hella fun, for example those birds in the glitter forest steal my damn valueable tools as it is if their left outside, lol] epic mod 9/10 ,,, be 10/10 if value was added
thanks XD

It's a good mod, hell it should be a mandatory mod the only issue is that it doesn't affect the value of the object, and there is no sprite change even after doing do. It's basically for roleplay wich isn't what i'm personally looking for but if you were to redo this and add theses suggestion it would be amazing and a must have mod.

Great idea, thanks for the mod!

Yesss! Thank you

How did it never occur to me? Encrusting armour and weapons with jewels and metals was a thing for millennia in our world, how the hell was it missed in df? Nice one mate
