That stuff that's going to ruin UO... uhmm.... imbuing? doesn't it use like existing stuff from weapons which you can mix/match to make new ones?
Like if you have 50 Hit Fireball on a weapon, you can "unravel" it or something to put that on something else?
If that's the case, then start stocking up on heartwoods now, so you can make/build your uber stuff for the future.
