<br />If the 2010 4C token is going to require at least seven separate monster trophies , in addition to whatever else is required for the recipe (I'd wager at least one rare as well), I think a slotless item would be appropriate because this thing is going to be a PITA to make.<br />

<br /><br />By that argument, the last 4C was even harder since it spanned 3 years and required the same number. Since it was a neck, that would set the benchmark. Either that or make it less powerful and in a differnet slot, or even less powerful and slotless.

Some classes still don't have a head or waist slot item and some classes have mediocre choices for some slot locations. Neck is a slot where there are many good choices that are not class limited. Finger has many good choices that are not class limited. Of course the wild card is no slot but that should be used sparingly so it can last a while and be appreciated.

<br /><br />When I first read what you wrote, I thought you were mistaken. But then I went back a re-read the MoG recipe and damn, you're right! Oh well....

<br />4C Ioun Stone anyone?<br />

<br /><br />That woudl sound like a good compromise. The Ioun stone does take a slot, but it would only take up one of 4 of them, and this would be the 5th Ioun stone.

<br />*sigh*  Consider Henwy's point - if this item goes slotless, it'll be (of necessity) LESS powerful.  And ioun stone is such a tiny step from slotless, it hardly signifies.  So ask yourself if you want a more powerful item, even if it means giving up something else in the slot, or if you want something that you'll say "eh, well, since I don't have anything else, I might as well wear it".  <br /><br />

It occurs to me that it's been mentioned more than once that they wanted the 4C for 2010 to have a tie to the current story arc.  It seems a decent chance that whatever it is will be some sort of dwarven or elven item since part of the mission is to travel to the dwarves to gain troops for the fight and that the party is having to rescue the elves from Smoak.<br /><br />Kim

Mmmm....crunchy elves! But dwarves are a bit too tough and sinewy much akin to mutton. Maybe we should also get a side order of fried pixies?    =D
