We appreciate constructive criticism, and certainly welcome it. I'm really glad you enjoyed the quest as much as we've enjoyed building it and can't wait to release the next parts as well!
Understanding that this question is going to get answered differently by anyone potentially asked, I'll go ahead anyway - what is it that you "need"? Not promising that responses are going to become a reality, but there's nothing wrong with a little wishful thinking
These would be useful additions for drops:
- Alternative for Conjurer's Garb (Robe with DCI 5, MR 2)
- Alternative for Conjurer's Trinket (DI 20, HCI 10, HPR 2, STR 1, Undead Slayer)
- Alternative for the Ranger's Augmentation Cloak and Warden's Wing Armor
- Alternative for SDI spellbooks (SDI 30, LMC 5, FCR 2, DCI 10)
The top four don't drop any more (unless you have some of those yellow crystallized essences that also no longer drop in game. Their value has increased exponentially and they financially out of reach for many players. And yet, they are vital in so many suit builds. So in general, these are the sorts of things that I keep finding myself wishing for in drops:
- Useful Artifact Talismans (try one for a warrior type such DI 20; HCI 10; HPR 2; Random Slayer) or a Slither like alternative for a mage/tamer/bard/etc (DCI 10; MR 2; STR 10)
- More artifact Clothing options (to rival the Conjurer's Garb and Augmentation)
- Armor pieces with unusual mods (like something with HLA or skill increase)
- More elven glasses with different mods (or let us just craft basic glasses so we can imbue custom mods like you did with the clockwork leggings)
- Crimson Cincture or Tangle Alternative - Half apron with STR 10, SR3, SDI 5, DI 10
- Ring or Bracelet that rivals the Orny with FC 2 and other caster friendly mods
- Maybe an alternative location to drop the replica valiant commendation scroll
If you are going to put in weapons, have their types randomly vary so there are different weapon specials. I agree with the notion here that HML is a requirement for useful warrior weapons. I can imbue a weapon with HML on it... if I get an artifact and it doesn't have HML (and usually HSL) then it goes right into the turn-in point system. Artifact weapons should exceed the power of the imbuing system (i.e. equivalent to 650-700 intensity). I would like most to have HML and HSL. Those sorts of things would get me excited about challenging the new boss.
