I can see where a non-GS-wielding 16 or 17 could get run over in at least those two quests (gotta run the others this weekend to check them out); but the moment ED's kick in, I can't see them being much of a challenge - I've been thinking this whole time that those quests had epic (due to seeing "e-Sins" and such) - I was a little annoyed last night and all I had to choose from were heroics. I also noticed my lvl 24 was still getting XP - which must mean these are insane XP at 16-17?

	The XP sucks out there. But if you run it on elite with 25s, you're only taking a 10% penalty.

	Other than DA in Bastion this is one of my favorite chains and I feel the design was the high watermark for Turbine. Each quest was unique and had unique mechanics. The all had interesting boss fights. The loot was great. The quests provide an actual challenge at level. It felt like a real D&D campaign. The mini bosses were even fun. The only issue is they give shitty XP.

	Unless they fix the way rings drop or create some trade in vendor, like any ring plus three trophies for the ring of your choice, any upgrades will be irrelevant. It's probably asking too much, but if they did epic ToD, having an upgrade to put all three tiers of greensteel recipe on a ring - your choice of weapon or equipment path would be ok with me. Talk about gear consolidation possibilities.

(Bonus points if they could fit the aug on the other piece of the set.)

I'd go the reverse - crunch the belt or necklace into an augment. 9 times out of 10 those are more valuable slots than one of two rings.

Colorless Slot with +6 stat / +1 Exceptional / Incredible Potential / Set Bonus Though it would be amusing to see HN/HH/HE versions of 40 ring + belt/necklace sets to cover all of the PrEs and Dragonmarked Heir.

Was however mostly thinking of post-enhancement pass when you've got the capacity to make toons with multiple sets they'd qualify for. Doesn't really strike me that that's the kinda thing you'd want to make too easy to gear for. Edit: I do suppose it'd likely be easier for em though to just add belt/ring+shard+Trophy and replace the present GS slot, since the interface is already there.

	On the substance of the specific change though: Meh, so it don't stack. Only problem with it is there's not a shit-ton going for it otherwise.

	This /win of the thread didn't last long . .. http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=406607 Feather... Let's have a talk about how bad the loot you made in epic GH is. Do you care that the general opinion is that it's mostly junk? Do you care, at all, that most everyone had incredibly high hopes for EGH and you mangled that with a complete and total void of understanding what makes people desire loot? Do you care that your stealth nerfs have invalidated what amounts to MONTHS of grinding incessantly to get the nerfed items? Do you still think you are really good at your job, as you've said? (hint here: you shouldn't) Do you realize how smug your responses come off, intended or not?

I could put something more useful on my TOD ring and get a better prefix on my armor than lesser covalesant. The vault crowd doesnt seem to adapt to changes in the game very well. "eSoS or bust... there is only 1 way to gear a toon". Old gear should be made obsolete, I already retired one claw set because there were better options. Its so funny to hear new loot sucks because I have to change my old gear. And claw set... it still works amazing on the toons that make the most use of it. The threat gen +healing amp + 5 extra intim +Brawn's spirits is ideal for intimitanks. I know maybe 1 player who can fit in both the claw set and the planar conflux trinket. Plus it pisses off Shade. Seems like a win to me. Now if they'd just put a retroactive purple and yellow slot on my claw set I would be over the moon. The stealth nerf however is moronic, being upfront should be the order of the day. My toons keep getting better and better from the game changes and I have never had more fun playing them. I like options and having more than 1 way to skin a cat.
