TOPIC: Treasure Only Amulet Transmute?

If we're trying to help newer players (which would seem to be the intent of having a +1 level bonus transmute), I don't think basing the recipe off of treasure box only tokens is the way to go. Using completion tokens like the Ring of Heroism recipe is probably more appropriate. I think it'd be ok to do something like once every 4 years cycle the recipe on for a year. Maybe taking up a different slot each time.

As far as a transmute for the greaves or the amulets, I'd just love an answer either way. I've got plenty set aside. Partly "just in case" and partly because I hate to mulch them into Silk or Stones.

I'd love to see a greaves or amulet transmute, preferably one that just combines them all into one.

The prior suggestion of allowing either one of each or x number of rare and x number of uncommon greaves from any year would solve the problem of not announcing it early.

OR

Announce a transmute, and then start reprinting prior year amulets and greaves in a rotating cycle.

I also would like to see the return of the completion token and monster bit transmutes. Those really made the game feel like a multi-year quest. Icecrag is one of my favorite tokens for that reason alone. Same with Bead of the Lucky Traveler.

All these options sound great.

I’d just like a declaration of there will/won’t/might be a transmute for these things. If the declaration is nope (as I understood to have already been done), let’s stop badgering Jeff. (Said with much love guys.). If the stance is everything is fair game, no worries either.

That said, if these amulets and greaves are not transmutable, how about lowering their pull rate? I’d rather have a random rare.

Let’s get back to debating how the Druid and wizards are underpowered. . (Says the hf.)

That said, I saved 10 of each, so I hope they do it.

I agree I doubt there will be one of either but have 10 of each rare and uncommon greave and 10 of the necklaces. However i disagree about because people will complain is a valid reason. When there was an increase in golden fleeces we were told we could trade for them if we didn't have enough. If would say the same for greaves and/or necklaces if there was a transmute. But that is just me.

I think Ring of Heroism's recipe wasn't announced before people had traded away stuff, and everyone seemed pretty happy about it.

If could be as simple as an Amulet of Heroism that takes 10 different Amulets of Greaves, 1 of each trade good, and 5,000 GP or something and gives +1 level and a charm slot or something.

I'm pretty sure the ring of heroism was announced at the start of the ingredients availability. That said, I'd love to have some sort of transmute that could soak up some of those excess amulets and Greaves.

That may be correct - I may be misremembering. The RoH was transmutable in 2015 and took as ingredients completion and volunteer tokens from 2013-2016. But there was a treasure only version of RoH in 2013 - so maybe the transmute was announced then.
