I just wanted to see what everyone thinks of some of the new items coming out? Other then items that I would get for a Artificer I am finding it harder and harder to get excited over the loot. Its great loot don't get me wrong but my toons have gear now in such a way that to change one items means changing 4-6 things around if I can. I do love the changes to the epic items I just hope that it is retroactive and that I don't have to grind out everything again. Happy Looting all and great job gathering all the information you have so far!!! |

Usually when they upgrade epics you have to hit it in the epic alter with a single epic token to get the new version. So there is a small cost to upgrading it but not too bad. I'll have to look at the new stuff. I tend not to plan gear too much ,but ya, the more mature the character the harder it is to find a spot for some new item due to the interdependence. Now if they had a "gear set" option like in WOW or the like that might make for a more manageable way to use multiple items that are interdependent. Then you can switch out sets of items like you do with weapons. That said, I have so many characters and I grind so few epics, its likely I can make use of most of the new stuff on one character or another. |

With the advent of TR's I have dropped down to pretty much just working on 2-3 characters. Its always hard to consider dropping or remaking a Green Steel item to make room for the next big thing. ![]() A few gear sets would be a interesting idea for the game. While I don't want things to go 100% in that direction. It would be a wonderful idea for anyone that would be into it. Viva Variety!!! |

I like to plan far ahead into my character's future as far as loot goes. That includes Rare Loot, Raid Gear, GS Items, and Epic Items. Because of this most of my characters are in the process of getting gear, and are never finished. GS Items are tricky to plan ahead(for me at least) except for Weapons. That said, I'm very much looking forward to the new gear. Will give me new ways to configure all of my characters incomplete gear layouts. Or new things to add to them. I really like the idea of "Gear Sets" similar to how WoW's functioned, or how "Weapon Sets" currently function. I think I've actually suggested them on the DDOForums before too(although I don't remember how well it was recieved). But this is D&D, if you're trying to hot swap multiple items at a time for convience I think there should be a minor penalty for that convience. Such as an armor equip timer, but maybe not as slow as equiping armor or the speed of equiping a "Gear Set" depends on how much gear is in said "Gear Set". ~Nim |
