Shattered Sanctum event - rewards

[MaryForUo]

hi all,
Which reward to choose? (based on pvm and good one)

There is couple items I would consider as "best in slot" for some templates. And they work together pretty well, so there is A LOT to get from this event.

New items:

Vortha's Medallion - better version of Pendant of Magi, best in slot item for mages and for suit with highest SDI possible. Note that you cannot Powder it so it cannot be back do 255/255.
Deathwarden's Graves - best in slot artifact for mages. High SDI, +15 Kinetic Eater, good stats, resists and LRC.
Azarok's Legplates - very good item for warriors and sampires. It has +15 Healing. The only real competition for this slot is Britches of Warding, but I think Azarok's are better overall.
Kaelvok's Cincture - very good belt with 5 SSI, 5 HCI and some stats. Note that you cannot Powder it so it cannot be back do 255/255.
Shadow Reaver Cloak - highest possible SDI item in cloak slot (by 1 SDI point). Note that you cannot Powder it so it cannot be back do 255/255.

Items back from previous events:

Solaria's Secret Poisons - best in slot artifact for warriors. 10 HCI bonus on earrings slot - it is a must have. Note that you cannot Powder it so it cannot be back do 255/255. Get at last 2 pairs of those.
Corrupted Paladin Vambraces - best in slot artifact for warriors.
Mantle of Archlich - highest possible SDI item in robe slot (by 3 SDI points). Note that you cannot Powder it so it cannot be back do 255/255.
Gloves of Archlich - best in slot artifact for mages.
Lord Morphius Tabbard - 10 SSI in robe slot, good for warriors.

SDI books are great too if you do not have similar ones from previous events.

Good to know about the items you can't Powder! I'll have to pick up a couple of those.

hi all,
Which reward to choose? (based on pvm and good one)

Are you talking about to resell after the event or for your own use?

If talking about your own use, that will largely depend on your suit / template. For me, and my SDI build, my suit is able to swap out the kelp leggings for the new greaves (8% SDI legs) along with the necklace (from a gorget) to have a net increase in just about every category except casting focus. Builds vary though and if you swap out your gorget (assuming you use one) for an item with 0 resists, it might not work out.

If you are talking about reselling; I'd aim for the PvP stuff but just know that you will need to sit on it for 6+ months before you will likely start getting good prices. Good example here is the HCI earrings; before the event started (and we knew about the earrings) I think they were going for like 500m on ATL. Now they are back so the prices have crashed down but the price might creep back up next year if they aren't brought back again. Another thing would be the best in slot items (like the studded legs IMO) where you can kind of build a suit around. The studded legs this year remind me a lot of the Balron chest from a few years ago where it's an item everyone uses and the longer the item doesn't spawn the more the price creeps up.
