Hatnof the hallway could become a helm in name only very easily.

That said I kinda wonder if we should loose a weapon and bring MEC back around since it was originally the counterpart of LoDs and wizards have taken a hit this year with the wand errata.

1. Thanks for putting another drawback on the Ring of Jealous Heroism - that makes it feel better to me and gives people a real reason to upgrade to RoH.

2. Interesting AC change instead of Elemental resistance on Earcuff of the Phalanx.

3. Charm of Quick Strike seems more likely to see play here than at neck, nice maneuver.

Couple things I noticed
Lute of Fury needs hands icon
The left year icon on the Shaman's Belt is noticeably smaller.

Thanks.

I just noticed the Ring. I agree- it's more properly balanced for an UR this way.

Quick Strike is really tough. if you don't roll a 19-20 the entire dungeon, you've wasted a slot.

Oh...forgot to post that. We will change the recipe to allow for the Hat of the Hellway to be used instead of a Helm.

I brought it up in L&L, but I think the Fixed Fate Light Crossbow should have some graphical indicator to set it apart.

I fear that DMs might not look at the token inside the puck when determining hits, as there usually aren't exceptions like the FF Crossbow.

Maybe change the color on the damage wheel ring? Brighten the back-ground?

Crud...another good idea I thought I captured. I will change it now. See below.

The crossbow looks good with the newest artwork. Too bad we didn't think of something like that for charm of shadow shot.

This will make it more likely that other range weapons without the graphical indictor will be treated as melee weapons. Prefer that it not be added.

I was getting excited about the chance to even attempt some other classes... without making the rest of the party suffer for my so-so memory!

Yes!

Also. If we dont do that, maybe add bard to the item?

Happy to see the Shaman's Belt polymorph activation as a free action.

19-20 on Charm of the Quickstrike is too low of a chance. With it triggering 10% of the time, chances of running 6 combats (two dungeons) and having it not trigger once would be above 53% (.9^6).

+2 Death Flail -- it has the potential to ruin combat and I was hoping to see another monk Flurry of Blows Ultra Rare weapon before another Ultra Rare 2-hander.

Fixed Fate Lt. Crossbow -- This token is MUCH too powerful in my opinion. I do not like enabling players to ignore ranged to-hit stats with "always hits on 15-20" with no downside. On nightmare difficulty, where the enemy AC values have recently ranged from 25 to 35, this token would provide between +10 to +20 to hit. That's way too high! The damage wheel (average 6.7) is higher than the +2 Keen Longbow (average 6.5) while usable by 5 more classes!

Hat of the Hellway -- I know we are heading into a very hot place, but I was hoping to get a different effect than -2 fire damage. I'd like to pitch the idea of self healing on hit again.

Really like the Tome of Focus as-currently revised. Skill Checks should be something that is a challenge. And if there is a way to bypass or auto-pass - then that should be a separate slot from a damage boost. Besides there are already pearls for Wizard and Cleric to get two opportunities to get the challenge correct...

I don't know - just something about auto-succeeding seems - too easy....
