Well to be honest the only place can recall using it is in FoTP to get the dragon back on me.  But it works, so I keep it.  Because keeping a piece of gear that works is the whole point.

Both helms are solid, that ring is a strong melee item.  The Trinket works, especially for full plate wearers that go to that armor to replace litany. 

The staff and the Orb are both strong too.  Especially since the new crafted loot will let you replace your stat LGS caster sticks.  Or Cannith Crafting can do that.

I love how the orb was made in my honor.

Whatever floats your boat, man: there are people who are into ant farms, too.

I'd say they're good for dc based builds only, not for casters in general.  They'retoo niche IMO.

Power cruise.

Well, aside from PK.

That shit died only because it's slow as hell.  If they'd speed up the casting animation there would be a point and people would stick around for their buffs instead of racing off to finish the dungeon before the Bard is done playing.

Fuck. This is exactly how it would suck.

You know, I still gotta give 'em props for creativity. Items that can go in multiple slots are something other than ZOMG! Biggr numbrs! And it's good to see.

Eventually we'll drop the items and go straight to crafting lag.

Asheras wrote on Jun 24^th, 2016 at 8:40am:


I wasn't focussing so much on the build choice, but whether that build really needed insightful aggro gain to be effective, and thus whether my original comment about that item was valid.

With so many useful things to squeeze into limited slots, I wouldn't be looking for Intim items?
Most people seem to Intim via DPS nowadays, and if the squishes get some aggro, then an Intim check should be enough without seeking items for it.  I have a +13 or 15 augment and that seems to suffice for my needs.

In case you missed it, I have no problem with peeps wanting tank builds. You're welcome to your bard builds, I don't want to upset you into thinking I was calling your builds redundant.

They're free to make whatever useless shit they want for loot and it will be ignored/sold like 90% of the flavor loot they have produced in the last two years.

Just remember the last time they tried something creative with items, it was for this item -

1. The Icy Silence
Following its first outing, she won’t say anything. She will probably sit there and take it all in. You may think at first that perhaps she’s maturing, she’s going to approach this like an adult, calmly and with caution. Do not be lured into a false sense of security. She is merely building up her sock army. She needs the adequate time to process her anger in an appriopriately bitchy fashion.

2. The Hidden Ammo
You thought she didn’t notice when you agreed with liberals? When you tried to buy duped items? When you forgot to pick the right alignment? WOMEN NEVER FORGET. This much you will learn quickly.

3. Excessive Swearing
Just because she’s a petty, ignorable poster at the best of times, does not mean that she won’t call you some of the most shocking names under the sun.

4. The Cold Harsh Truth
She’s going to tell you exactly what she really thinks of you. Every gruesome detail. The sneaking suspicion that she dislikes your race, gender and religion, will be voiced loudly and clearly. Also, those posts you make are too long, your build is terrible and it IS a big deal. Hurts, doesn’t it?

5. Questions/No Answers
The act of replying is usually used in a communicative context, except when used by an extremely angry woman. When she replies, what she really seeks is that you reword the completely irrelevant thing that you’ve just posted, so that she can really begin to build an irrelevant case against you; asking you to reiterate the same facts over and over again, in the vague hope that you’ll mess up some of them eventually. Nice try.

6. Dragging Up The Past
Remember that post in Off-Topic, 30 weeks ago, where she called you gay, and you never replied- that you don’t actually even remember? She sure does. What.. But… That was two pages ago? EXACTLY. Exactly what? What’s happening? Help….

7. Storming Out Dramatically
By now she’ll probably have worn herself out, what with all of the shouting, swearing, and remembering what she’s been doing. So, in order to fully prepare for the next stage of punishing you, she is now going to storm out and tell you to, under no uncertain terms, “fuck off faggot nigger cock loving virgins,” followed by at least three doors being slammed and 6 name changes. This is purely for dramatic effect. You understand.

8. Turning Her Socks Against You
Six days (minimum) later and you finally think that you’ve gotten over this stumbling block, so to speak. She’s finally thawed out and cooled down. You begin to relax. Let us be the first to inform you that your relief is short lived, because it’s pretty much guaranteed that she has logged into all of her long forgotten socks once again to post about what an utter ass you are. So they now need the adequate time to process their anger in a appropriately bitchy fashion.

Let this be a lesson to all of mankind. Never, ever start a fight with a bitch. She will always, always think she has won.
