TOPIC: 2019 Ultra Rare Token Images !!

When the revised CoS version was proposed at +2 to saves and ignore one melee or missile hit per game, I was in--it felt like a UR upgrade from my Rare cloak. At +1 saves, I'll probably skip it.

As is right now my cloak is heading towards a gold nugget and i'll go back to +2 saves cloak. Rather just ban/force turn in the token at this point.

2ac and negate 1 hit of my choice would be at least a little better than just a +2 saves.

I don't like the to be Ring of Foolish heroism but that's due to a plethora of regular rings of heroism still out there. I do dig the name though.

I like the earcuff for the AC buff, as someone who doesn't have/not paying price for Orbits it's decent for tank builds and i rather have it then yet another conditional effect i'd have to remember. Be nice if i pulled/traded for it but not a pyp for me as I get 1-2 pyp's a year and i desire more impact from my few UR's a year.

Mental Note Bribe Jeff with Saltwater Taffy.

Eternal ice crystal

Plus 3 to hit and the coach will circle the cold in the to hit spot , not the damage column.
If it hits it has other effects like increases damage from other players?

No, but I can pick 2 UR every year I could say that about. Every UR every year can't be and won't be a must have. If it was we would call that year 2014 and OP.

You called out the Wizard classes what about the 10 others and there are 2 earcuff slots. What are your classes wearing (not including Icecrag/Orbits)?

-1 I had people asking for Ring of Heroism at Gen Con. Each vendor sold everything they brought and the price continued to climb. Now I am not advocating that price is the factor here what I am saying is there is demand out there and the supply of RoH is dwindling (and you can't make any more).

There may be many rings and charms on the secondary market soon, with the change to eldritch. Probably even more in 2021, once the teeth are done.

I do think we should always have a way to get to level 5 in print. I agree it is too early to reprint the charming set, though I could see that in 2021, or at least 2 of them, like the might set was reprinted.

Should it be slightly different? Maybe. I think it's a good entry point for a lot of newer UR players.

I dont want another set, that's for sure.

all of them are not wearing that combo. so if the wizards, druid, cleric and bard don’t wear them because they are wearing inspiration because +4 damage > +4 ac. so at best thatwould be 7 classes to wear them. and now we are talking just +3 ac for a ur that i would need to but 7 of. for some of my builds it is earcuff of the wind to prevent surprise. no suprise or 3 ac? probably 3 ac, but not at ur cost of 7 of them.

Really no longer in what was considered budget category (sub 200/ around pyp price)

I really would love to see and hopefully bribe Jeff with taffy is to see a RoH reprint/recipe redo at some point. Since most build advice comes down to starting beyond rares is treasure enhancer or level bump i'd like to see it come back. It does it's purpose, tweak recipe if need be to balance the extra cons worth of completion tokens out there.

As a 'budget' (2 pyp's a year) mid range UR build who mains dwarf this year just feels meh, guess i have a break on buying pyp's for once. If i stay my normal 2 route i'm likey to get last year's kilt and hammer and plan that path for the mid term.

Matt mentioned earlier trading in Cloak of Shadowskin to get ISGN.
