Hello,
I would like to suggest that in possibly the next few Major DLCs that we could possibly see Melding be a secondary part of the DLC. How I see it is that there is a new currency added alongside the gear you wish to meld alongside a copy of the trait material used in each of the gear, a copy of each glyph, a copy of the style, and some of the crafting materials used to make said gear. Both pieces of gear will need to be at the same level, and be at the same quality to be melded, and you can only meld two items at a time.
Here is an example of how it could be done:
Rubedite Tsaesci Armor of Health with a Infused Trait + Rubedite Tsaesci Armor of Stamina with Reinforced Trait + a Truly Superb Glyph of Health + a Truly Superb Glyph of Stamina + 1 Bloodstone + 1Sardonyx + 3 - 4 Snake Fang + 300 - 420 Rubedite Ingot + 50 Melding Tokens that can be combined into a unique set of armor.
Yes, This does seem a bit overpowered, but when you look at it from a different view where when most of the veteran players have way more crafting materials then they know what to do with it doesn't seem that overpowered to say the least. True PvP will need time to adjust to the new mechanic, but with how many people have asked in the forums for dual enchanting, and being told no some of us would have to get a little bit creative to make something that could be balanced for the game. I've done my research that most of the PvP'ers are slowly phasing out of doing anything PvP related from YouTuber Arttea where the scene is slowly dying off. This would be useful for those who have new options for armory builds to choose from when tackling certain targets whether it's World Bosses to even Story Bosses and everything in between.
If we can get a Scribing in ESO then why not add something like Melding to the game that is somewhat balanced out that has a bit of a hefty cost to get the items you want to use throughout your journey in Tamriel while still being close to balanced as far as it could be. I think if this does get added that there is a new Crafting Station that could be bought for crowns for the player to meld their armors together in their homes or guild houses. But hey this maybe an idea from a mad man or it might be a genius idea that could breath new life into ESO. If you would like to leave your ideas on this please do so, but try and not roast me too hard over this idea.
