This is probably wishful thinking. But since I know some GM's read these forums I have a very amazing request:
Would you ever consider to allow spell abosrbing/bazz gloves to absorb charges from X/day rechargeable items (like the ones recently sold at DR for example)? That would be so damn cool. I realize it might be too hard to code for the effort. But hey, you never know until you ask.
Tamuz posted that the gloves disallow the wands, and it seems intentional.
I tried that when they came out, with a 130 wand (not x per day though) I usually have merchants recharge.
I winced as I did it, afraid it was going to destroy it (it's made of oak). But yea, blocked.
That would be a massive boost in power to the gloves.
For one... what if somebody has multiple sets. Even just being able to stock up charges etc would be a big leg up.

That is correct it would be amazing and fun as hell. It would make the gloves so uber, and the wands amazing as well. Still not quite sure what would be so wrong about that? Sapping the charges from your wand would fill your gloves, and gloves wouldnt be refillable again until empty. So affectively you could store up 40 charges from a 20charge wand. I guess that is a problem...?
If it is "too powerful", it could be a t3 auction unlock on the gloves...but i guess thats probably asking too much.
I knew it was wishful thinking.
@nocturnix
Basically, it allows you to ghetto clone the 20x items. Not hunting one day? Duplicate the item. Also, it let's you start the recharge timer immediately, rather than once you start a hunt etc.
More likely they would let you convert your 20x into gloves.
Making it a high level unlock, maybe. But it's very auction tier.
Regardless of the power level, I suspect that making this work correctly would require complicated changes to the glove script as well as the x/day scripts.
Does the gloves only eat wands/rods or can it eat other imbeddables like pins and the line?
Wands or rods

unscripted wave/raise items. Like the MRs in the Loot Cellar work great with the gloves. You can clench to drain and then charge the MR again

Right, I should be more specific, items that use raise or wave.
Definitely not pins (which would be tap or rub).
