Are you suggesting it will be a head slot item?

That would be very disappointing.

2020 doesnt exist just virtual dungeons for cons that are not happening
all transmutes extend to a year so expiring 2020=dec 2021, etc
S series starts in 2021
maybe a subset of Urs for 2021 ...
Then in 2022 it restarts tokens (teeth Relics etc)


Sums up my primary questions going forward.


I am hoping the teeth are completed next year, even if the special event doesn’t happen until 2022.

I’m hoping they don’t happen. To keep costs down for 2020. If a small UR sub set is being ordered. Then okay. If not then teeth etc should wait to save money


UR and Tramsute set would be ideal I think? A lot of bulk orders are condensed for trade goods and those just stay in circulation as far as I know. I imagine TD could probably drive a fair amount of sales with URs and transmutes.

I was more asking about design theme then item slot. Something like this guy per chance.

That said could mask be a separate slot from head?

it really depends how token sales go before virtual cons. But if its not worth the ROI (return on investment) Then it might not be worth doing

If the profit margin on tokens is pretty high (and I think it is), then a new token set for next year might be a significant revenue generator, which might help get past the "no conventions" period of time. Especially if the new token set included tokens like the Platinum Nugget.

OK. But I'm not keen on adding new slots at this point other than a tome slot. The tome slot would put a restriction on what is now slotless and enable more token development with less power creep.

By that rationale, we may wish to develop Pouch and Horn slots.

Also, possibly quiver.

Wasn't the Tome slot already announced, to go into effect maybe next year?

I believe it was mentioned to start 2020 when Gregor's tome was created in 2019

My recollection is that Gregor's tome was created as slotless while also announcing there would be a tome slot eventually, possibly tied to intelligence.

Pouch and horns, at least currently, don’t impact the party card. No sweat for coaches.

There are only two quivers n existence. The rare Is a back slot item. The UR is slotless. If more quivers are developed this inconsistency needs to be resolved.

That's my recollection, also. So, I guess another question would be if the Tome Slot is still going to be incorporated.
