Final 2010 Artwork! Last Chance! 14 years 5 months ago #1

I am VERY thankful for the great help you all of been (AGAIN!) this year with our 2010 token collection.  The tokens are much improved for it.<br /><br />If you have the time, please give them all one last look and let me know any additional feedback you might have.  I changed the Fey Boots (Common) to something less confusing, and I upped the protection of the Dirtdazzy Boots to +3.  Lots of little tweaks as well.<br /><br />Thanks again!<br /><br /> www.truedungeon.com/email/common.jpg <br /><br /> www.truedungeon.com/email/uncommon.jpg <br /><br /> www.truedungeon.com/email/rare.jpg <br /><br /> www.truedungeon.com/email/ultra.jpg <br />

The Pearl of Prayer should have some punctuation separating "one use" from the rest of the info. - a period, a hyphen, something.<br />

The picture updates look good.<br /><br />Potion of Creeper Vine and Potion of Yew Bark, one of them is STR (all caps) and the other is Dex (only capital D).  Need to be consistent.  Also, when did they go down to just +1 on the attribute?  That makes them completely useless for at least half the classes (even with the rumored update to the character stats).  Also, since final strengh is not recorded on the sheet after magic items, it will be cumbersome to determine if the person has an odd or even strengh in the middle of combat.<br /><br />Scroll of Gaze Reflection: to be consistent with Magic Vestments, wording should be "Immune to gaze attacks (caster only)"<br /><br />Helm of the Eagle: Should be "missiles"<br /><br />Plate Armor of Attack: There doesn't need to be a period after AC.

<br />Hat of Healing - I still am unclear on how it works, and you've got some real estate on the token for more explanation.  Should it be "Any '20' slid by wearer heals 5 pts to wearer"?  Or is it "Any '20' slid by any player heals 5 pts to wearer"?  Or maybe "Any '20' slid by any player heals 5 pts to all players" (sign me up for 2!)?<br /><br />Like the image modifications for Dougal's Cloak and Runestone fitting, and the new image for Monk's Belt - good choice.<br /><br />

That would be awesome if the Hat did get to heal you for 5 if any 20s are slid.  But I'm sure it is more like your initial suspicion that it is the wearer's 20s only that count.  In which case, this won't be much use to a non sliding character.<br /><br />And just coz someone mentioned it before...<br />

Of course, the Hat of Healing looks nothing like the Sorting Hat other than having a pointy part and it goes on your head.  The Sorting Hat has a large floppy brim, is brown, and has a face on it.<br /><br />It seems like the standard reading of the tokens usually implies that effects for items worn are personal unless specified, so the wording is technically correct.  But it wouldn't hurt to make it 'Any "20" you slide heals you 5 pts'.  There's room there to do it.

Just a couple things I noticed:<br />Elven Arrow could use a comma "... also, +1..."<br />Elven Falchion (and the +1 version, too) does not look like it has a handle big enough to be a 2-handed weapon (whereas the Elven Longsword does)<br />Pearl of Prayer would look better with "(One use)" as opposed to "one use"<br />Helm of the Eagle -> Nice image!<br />I also really like the scroll graphic you picked for the All scrolls.

The images look great. Revised images are responsive to comments.<br /><br />With respect to the hat, regarding any similarities to any potentially proprietary cinematics, I think you can only go so far. For goodness sakes, no one can own the rights to the image of a long pointy wizardy looking hat, regardless of their popularity. As I noted earlier, last year we had a neat looking hat that was dropped for a similar reason. Let's make any hat image we want, and just be judicious that the name of the hat and words on the token do not resemble any previously-applied commercially noticeable names.<br /><br />The questions and comments about the use of the hat seem valid to me. Any 20 from anyone or just the wearer? and where does that leave the non-sliding mage, who could be the one to make best use of the hat in the first place?
Of all the traits of humanity, there is only one we do not share with other species, which sets us apart and makes us unique <br />-- the ability to imagine.

The Boots prevent 3 points of damage from melee damage, and the censer prevents 2 points of damage from combat damage.  Is the difference from Melee damage and Combat damage that Melee damage doesn't include ranged attacks?  Also, do they stack to prevent 5 damage from Melee attacks?

They are really looking good.  Don't supose you'd make the helm of the eagle useable by bard. :)
Sweet a combat room, we won't take damage!

<br /><br />Eeek!  Good question.  Let me think about it as I can see some potential problems here  Thanks!<br />
