Not yet. You'll see them on TC before they go on production Shards.

Yep, I got a large iron armor bod, and promptly tossed it in the trash.

Why are we wishing for these damned things again?

Anything else would work for me at this point. Large armor bods my Legendary Smith does not need. (Nor would she have needed them at GM, just so it doesn't sound like I'm being snobby.)

Because a number of them have chances for POS (EX Ringmail, Ex Polearms, Normal Plate and 20-count weapon normals of certain types), and 1 has a chance for a colored Anvil (15 Ex Plate)? You can even fill the normal smalls by buying the items, or with loot.

I know that is why I have wanted them back for so long.

Just pulled 1 Verite large bod &amp; 1 normal Valorite bod this morning! First set of bods like that my poor dirty drunken smith has ever gotten in a year of smithing.

My smith never stopped getting large weapons bods.. so knock the polearms and 20 count weapons bods out of the equation.

I think that leaves - exc ring, normal plate, and a 15 exc plate in the mix?

I'm not sure how high the chances at getting a POF actually are.. but you actually think they're better than turning in all those individual small bods for a shot at a dull copper small bod that yields a POF? And by turning on all iron large bods as a random chance, you add in a bunch of undesirable ones, which reduce the chances for one of the small bods that yield powders.

Again, I'm not a power gamer. Heck, I actually use looted plate pieces to fill normal plate 20 piece small deeds. (Lot cheaper than buying them.) I don't have a fleet of bod gatherers at my disposal, so I may be missing something.

Well, one of the things is that I have are the last vestiges of another guild's Iron BOD collection (they gave it to me when it filled an 18x18, before the vendor storage thing became common knowledge). I used them to train my blacksmiths up (filling the smalls). I have several filled sets just waiting for a large, that it just doesn't feel right turning full sets in as smalls after such effort.

I've had no luck in getting anything good, by turning in bulk numbers of iron smalls anyway, so I rarely do it anymore. I might after the changes go in, but the ones I use won't be ones I filled working up to 120, unless they are extras.

The plate EX 15s are definitely not gonna be turned in as small, as there are too few BODs as it is that can give the anvil.

The plate ex 15 reward I was unaware of, probably because I've never turned one in!

And I admit, I've turned in a bunch of iron exceptional 15 plate bods. I must've, cause I got them, and don't have them anymore.
So I filled them and got a replacement.

Guess I'll start keeping one of each available in case I get a large bod to put them into. And MAN have my bod pulls gotten lousy lately. Hammer picks and axes all over the place. Blah.
