Augmented dyed equipment do not feature the cogs associated with most augmented items (they look identical to non-augmented versions). Disassembling augmented dyed items does not return the dye. Dying in unsafe PvP with this item drops a broken noxious staff - the dye, augmentor, and gizmos are lost. Weapon gizmos charged with perks can be used to enhance the weapon's abilities. As a two-handed item, the Augmented noxious staff (third age) can hold 2 gizmos, allowing up to 4 perks (2 perks each).
