TOPIC: Ultra Rare Token Suggestions, Please!

Re: Ultra Rare Token Suggestions, Please! 2 years, 9 months ago #85

I was a suggestions to rename Dwarven Steel breastplate into something more underwaterish, If that name is not liked could always do something like Kraken Bone Chest plate. Though I do like the Dwarven Steel Breastplate

I also would like to see a +2 or really a +3 ring of protection

I also saw a Mithral Greeves +3 dex All classes, that would be nice.

I also really support the Executioner set idea.

Also the head item that could be used by Barb would be nice or perhaps a new set of UR armor, I really don't want troll hide.

Geshtai's Chalice of Healing
Sacrifice any two potions to heal 5 points of damage.

My reasoning for this UR is that we have a lot of potions every year, but I for one cannot seem to use them up. This would trump the Goblet of Healing and free Jeff from continuing to include Faerie Water as a Common token every year (assuming he feels obligated to, of course).

P.S. Geshtai is a lesser goddess of lakes, rivers, wells and streams.

I like this (cool stuff), but think it should be any 2 potions for 1 healing.

Charm of the Fanatic: Automatically succeed at a Divine casting memory test once per room.  [Perhaps combine this and the one below]
Charm of the Archmage: Automatically succeed at an Arcane casting memory test once per room.  [Perhaps combine this and the one above]


I definitely like them as a single, all-class charm, but even then I think it's weak for a UR. Rare seems more appropriate to me. In the groups I've run with (90% of which are PUGs) a spell check is so infrequently missed, the boon of this item seems wasted for a UR.

Perhaps succeed in all checks?

However, Ekdtar's Tinkering Tool is a UR, and accomplishes a similar function to the ones that Rich is suggesting. Experienced players might have little use for them, but intermediate and novice players would love them.

Still kind of the same issue in that spell checks don't seem that hard in my experience.

Plus, making it an auto-succeed on all checks kind of takes away the flavor/fun of being a spellcaster. As a cleric, I enjoy the challenge of the bead quizzes and knowing my skills maximized my effectiveness is a point of pride.

Ditto for the wizards!  I like knowing how wizards and most DMs know the boards so well they don't even have to turn it over to confirm a skill test.

Yeah, I wasn't even asked to identify leaves once to cast a spell as the druid this year.  I'm kind of assuming the DM just allowed the max damage, although I'm not entirely sure.  This was in the chain devil room on EH, and we were not pressed for time at all.

Druids are actually the class with the most skill check fails, in my experience.  Many of those leaves are very similar to each other!

Merchant House Contract: Trade in (consumable) for any UR in stock (past years included).  [s]Otherwise worth 5,000 GP (or just let the market find a value).[/s]  This one will sell out, and help make use of past years URs.  You could make this one take two UR slots this year or something (to help make use of past URs).  Also this could be the UR you find in the Dungeon (and not the others) making it recyclable (and, again making use of past years URs).  If it was the only UR found in the dungeon, then it would make finding an UR in the dungeon cooler.  This would also extend the PYP from other years offer by a year (in effect).
[s]Charm of the Fanatic: Automatically succeed at a Divine casting memory test once per room.  [Perhaps combine this and the one below][/s]
[s]Charm of the Archmage: Automatically succeed at an Arcane casting memory test once per room.  [Perhaps combine this and the one above][/s]
Charm of Memory: Automatically succeed at a spellcasting memory test.
Mantle of the Monster Slayer: Turn this token in for one of each monster ingredient for the year and 5,000 GP.
Guildmaster Contract: Trade-in (consumable) any Ultra Rare for another ultra rare and 5,000 GP.  Perhaps the UR could be a random one from a special box.  Perhaps a big spinning wheel, or d100 where you could get some thing super cool on 100.
Artificer Contract: Trade-in (consumable) along with 5,000 GP for any two ultra rares in stock.  This would be a popular one that would remove a lot of gold from the economy.

I think you need to make URs that use large amounts of gold.
