Mechanics

This fossil adds an implicit mod with the description Item sells for much more to vendors. This implicit mod is separate from the item's actual implicit mod(s) and will not overwrite other implicit mods when applied or take up an implicit slot. The actual mod is chosen from a selection of random implicit mods that adds various currency items to the vendor price.

Using an Orb of HorizonsOrb of HorizonsStack Size: 20Reforges a map item as another of the same tierRight click this item then left click a map to apply it. on a map with Item sells for much more to vendors will randomise the items offered by NPC vendors in exchange for it. The vendor offer is therefore shown in the Sell screen as a hidden item (before version 3.16.1, can be multiple hidden items) to prevent this from being exploited.

Since Item sells for much more to vendors count as an implicit and the fossil add that implicit on top of the implicit of that basetype, vaaling the item would remove either Item sells for much more to vendors or the basetype implicit. Thus, there is a chance that Item sells for much more to vendors is removed and the corrupted item kept the basetype implicit as well as having the new corruption implicit from the random vaaling outcome.

Version history

Version	Changes
3.16.1	Gilded Fossil modifiers that had multiple sell price outcomes now instead have a single possible outcome. This is to solve a problem where some outcomes of a Gilded Fossil modifier can be previewed in the Vendor window, and visibly change in quantity when the item is modified using currency that changes an item's base type.
3.10.1g	When vendoring an item that has had a Gilded Fossil applied to it, the sell value is now hidden.
3.4.3c	Using a Fractured FossilFractured FossilStack Size: 10Creates a split copy Cannot be used to split Influenced, Enchanted, Fractured, or Synthesised itemsPlace in a Resonator to influence item crafting. to mirror an item with the "Item sells for much more to vendors" implicit modifier now generates a new vendor sell price on the Mirrored copy.
3.4.0	Introduced to the game.
