The Elder Scrolls Online site has been updated with a new post to provide players with the basics of the new Transmutation System coming with Clockwork City and Update 16. The system allows players to change the traits in a number of different items including all armors and all weapons. Once an item is selected, players head to a Transmutation Station to get started, though the caveat is that having the ability to craft items with that Trait is required.
To complete transmuting an item, players will need Transmutation Crystals dropped in a number of places:
Guaranteed drops:
- Random Daily LFG
- Undaunted Pledges
- Trial Weekly Quests
- Arena, Trial, and Battlegrounds Leaderboards
- Alliance War Campaign End Rewards
- Your first Rewards for the Worthy in a day
- Maelstrom Arena (Veteran mode only)
- Dragonstar Arena (Veteran mode only)
Chance to drop:
- Dungeon Final Bosses
- Rewards for the Worthy mails, after your first for the day
- Random LFGs after your first
According to developers, use of Transmutation allows players to customize their characters and items to best suit their play styles.
