Someone remind me what Treasures of Doom was exactly
You killed things for armor pieces that had "of doom" on them. Of course in doom.

You turn those in similar to the blackthorn artifact system

I just hope the dungeon won't be filled with monsters with HP in the several hundreds range or worse (multi thousands HP) like pretty much everything in Eodon.
If this is the case, I won't bother with it. There is just so much grinding one can handle.

Also, the system in place favours killing things as fast as possible, so with multi hundreds HP monsters, players will be rewarded far less often, making it much more difficult to gather the needed points to buy the rewards.

Exactly! And I fear this is the shape of things to come. Just like Shadowguard...spend all that time killing a spawn for no reward other than the opportunity to go kill another spawn (room) for no reward other than to repeat ad nauseum...all so you can have a CHANCE to do the roof and MAYBE get something worthwhile...

I hope they introduce some new artifacts to the Halloween event turn in system this year.

I was hoping for some new stuff to the Trick or Treat rewards. It's been stale for awhile now.

For those of us who really dont care if we ever set foot in Eodon again, I wonder if Doom will be turned back on as well...
Really!!! Glad that expansion was a freebie cause I would not have been happy paying for it :(
