Transmute recipe: 25 points worth of Dust tokens.

I imagine this being an evergreen transmute, similar to the 10 HP healing potions.

(This assume Dust tokens continue to be printed - they showed up in 2017-2021, but not in 2022, so I'm not sure if they are coming back or not).

According to token db, the prayer pearl counts as dust, so dust is “technically” part of 2022 as well.

How about a cloak transmute line similar to the Cloak of Destiny-Greater Cloak-Pharacus'? Maybe start with an UR cloak with +2 saves and +1 AC then a relic at +3 saves and +2 AC and the legendary at +4 saves and +3 AC? We can fiddle with the numbers so that it is on par with Pharacus' Cloak without necessarily being better.

Tome of the Troubadour
You may play the Troubadour Sub-Class (1 use, redeem at start)

There would be 11 more of these recipes, one for each of the Eldritch Sub-Classes. I would make the recipe timeless, so that they can be a sink to trade goods.

Perhaps the recipe can be 2 of some of the trade goods, 1 each of the remaining trade goods, some gold (5K?), and 2 rares relating to the class. In the case of the Tome of the Troubadour, 2 rare instruments. Or use some monster bits. Something that’s not to prohibitive to make one or two Tomes a year. If stacking this effect with Folios is too powerful, this recipe could be made a Folio instead of a Tome.

This could also be helpful to TPTB to determine what Sub-Classes need work. If everyone is building Troubadour tokens and nobody is building Berserker tokens, maybe the Berserker needs some work.

Very cool idea. A set of recipes that allow the subclasses to get played more. Maybe a two year expiration to do exactly the idea of figuring out how they can all be fixed up

Transmute to a relic +3 Pirate Assassin's Crossbow with x3 damage on natural 20. Transmute that into legendary +4 Nameless Assassin's Crossbow with x3 on any critical hit.

Too good?

Please DO NOT reprint Assassin's crossbow only to nerf it. Please DO reprint to make it more available, or print an alternative.

For the record I own one and would be happy to see a reprint (as-is!) even if the value of my token drops. I want to see more Rogues have access to it.

Amen!

I own my own but think it would be more available… please don’t nerf it though

I would like to see a generic caster neck legendary for those that find the Wizard item to complicated and the Druid item underwhelming (although previous posters ideas for legendary polymorph transmutes could change this).

Condensed healing brought back as a transmute then set a defined schedule of it appearing every X years (3?)

Spectral Slug (blunder weapon and sling ammunition)
Adds half of 1 plus your psychic tier, rounded up, to damage (1/combat)
Not turned in.

4 point exalted transmute.

NOTE: no player may use more than one special slug in a combat regardless of how many they have.

I would not wear a +5 focus neck over necklace of the songbird. I think a neck slot would need to be pretty insane to beat out songbird.

Muk's is a ring and +6, so maybe +7 being the minimum. I think coming up with the exact plus is something that could be worked out in the design process. Ralson’s at +9 damage is likely the top end of what could be considered, but that feels a bit too high.
