Masterwork Transformation is it permanent?

[zainale]

just what i asked in the topic line

[Kolyarut]

Yes

[Create Mr. Pitt]

Yes, it's "instantaneous". It costs the same as having it made masterwork. It is intended to allow you to create masterwork items when you don't have access to crafting. But "instantaneous" effects are permanent.

[Kolyarut]

Since it's instantaneous, it is not a permanent magical effect and thus cannot be dispelled. It just instantly and magically turns a regular item into a masterwork item.

An example of a permanent magical effect would be a Continual Flame spell.

[Sundakan]

Basically what was said above. Effectively yes it is "permanent" but Instantaneous is "Permanent, but better" in this game.

Permanent means "This is an ongoing effect with Duration: Infinite but can be Dispelled or otherwise disabled".

Instantaneous means "It happened, it's done, all effects final. No take backsies.".

[zainale]

can it be used on the trait heirloom weapon trait which in a way can give you a non-masterwork weapon?

[Rennaivx]

You can get a weapon from Heirloom Weapon, then use Masterwork Transformation on it, yes. It's one of the best ways to use the spell, actually.
