ENHANCEMENT CONVERSION ISSUE OR IGNORANCE?!?!?!

[Dr Nemo]

For the love of me, I cannot get the enhancements in place of the INPUT slot.
No matter what I do matters.

Any ideas?

It looks like you are trying to convert regular enhancements.  You can only convert Invention origin enhancements (IO's) that are part of a set.

 

You can read about the different types here:

Or converters in particular:

Edit: And also, even if you could use a converter on a regular enhancement it would be very inefficient.  Sell those enhancements if you don't need them, sell the converter on the auction house ( type /ah in chat to open it).  You'll get at least 50k inf from selling a converter there even on a bad day.  Use that influence to buy the enhancements you need if you want to stick with regular ones.

These shown are normal enhancement , they NOT meant for this.

 

You can only Convert Crafted SET IO's.

Thank you peoplez, having a time understanding everything.

Then I need to respec, or however you call it, to reslot my powers, yes? I got regular enhancements there at the moment.

You can override them by putting something else on top of slotted powers, or if you want to retain the enhancement that's slotted but unslot it, there's enhancement unslotters you can purchase (around $150k/unslotter) to remove one enhancement at the time. It doesn't take the slot away to let you reallocate the slot though, just the enhancement.

normal enhancements (training, double, and single origins also known as TOs, DOs, and SOs) you can upgrade in the enhancement/ manage screen. then clicking on the enc you can combine it with the like enc. if they are the same level they have a 100% chance of combining to the +1 the highest that you are combining.

 

converting is for Invention Origin (IOs) enhancements. that is a whole other affair.

Thanks again!
The game shows great promise as an alternative to any official games atm and the combos in general are too many as to consider them endless.
The only downside is a small population.
Should I try migrating to a U.S. server?
Also, as of what level do I chance upon content that needs a team? Midnighter club?
I'm going for a MM: Zombies and Time plus mostly healing powers, I'm into grouping synergies and fun.
(The above combo is my first attempt at something that makes sense to me as a person and a player, feel free to comment/pass judgement!)

i am euro-side but on excelsior, which is the highest population server. the high pop hours are unstuck from euro-time, but picks up later.

 

if you have a lot of questions you should either post them on the general discussion forum or a specific forum thread. or ask in general chat on which ever server. there usually is omeone willing to help at any hour. 🙂

Depending on your character and build, you won't need a team for most of the content. Even several TFs can be run perfectly fine while solo. The Advanced Mode TFs/SFs, trials, and raids are pretty much the only time you need a team. Other than that, you can always join a team and run the game at a higher difficulty if you want.

Just got a lvl up boost at Pocket D. Feels like I'm missing stuff but then again, endgame is the purpose here

If you are playing City of Heroes for the endgame, you're going to be disappointed.  This isn't World of Warcraft.

There is a way to go back to lower level content with a higher level character (through an Ouroboros portal crystal), so there is very little you can ever miss. Also, having a level 50 character does make earning influence a lot easier. 

 

Beyond that though, most people probably consider this more of a journey game.   Not something that shines at "end game."  Also, having a ton of alts trying out all the different power combos.   

 

There are exceptions though, as there are people with several thousand "vet levels" who obviously do enjoy focusing more on one character.
