In addition, I think it's time we start making some set bonuses that are achievable for our red players. Perhaps a set for some of the basic classes that give them some basic competencies and a set bonus ability that would complement the class. Example:
Paladins: Set Bonus for AC
Fighters: Set Bonus for +dmg
Cleric: Set Bonus for +heals
Druid/Wizards: Set Bonus for +spell dmg
Etc

+ 1

I'm not weighing in pro or con on this idea but:

a. This idea should be in the Rare thread, this is the UR thread.

b. I think it has been stated in the past that part of why uncommon and rare level set bonuses stopped being made is it's too much stuff for the coaches to keep on top of. Technology may have made this less important.

Snake Priest Set, which are all rare pieces, are in the 2024 tokens.

Please no more slot expanders than are already in the pipeline:

The 2024 calendar year will see Safehold IV and III come online, allowing for +1 underling and +1 follower relative to 2023. Followers allow the crafter their choice of another: Bead & Ioun, 2x Charm, Feet, Hands, Head, Shin, Shirt, or Legs slot item.

The 2025 calendar year will see Safehold II and I come online, allowing for an additional +1 hireling and +1 underling relative to the 2024 calendar year.

With the 2026 token class, there will be the next "4C" transmute, tentatively named Earcuff of Greater Glory will allow you to equip up to 4 rings .

In recent years TD has allowing builds to use 2 additional slots a year, which I think is too fast, but in any case, safeholds alone will allow for 2 new slots a year in calendar year 2024 and 2025.

2024 token class: Mark slot, 1st Hireling
2023 token class: +2 bead slots
2022 token class: An additional +2 charms (4 total) from the wrist slot, Spirit Pet

+2 Rod of Focus - 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Usable by Bard, Cleric, Druid, Wizards
+2 to focus

If not this specific token, then some mainhand weapon that grants +2 or 3 spell damage, usable by Wizards. With 2025, it will have been a decade since +2 staff of focus.

Evoker's Medallion - Neck - Wizards

Allows the use of up to 3 different mage powers in a room..

Either grants access to a list of 4 of the existing mage powers, or some mix of existing and new mage powers.

Potential new mage powers:

Magic Mouth: As a free action, cast a scroll (a single free action both activates this mage power and casts a scroll)

Double: The next time you cast a spell using a standard action from your card that has two or more casts remaining, cross off both boxes and double the damage of the spell, including all bonuses

Fast Cast: Like quicken, but only available on spells requiring a skill test, and the skill test must be successful.

Thorns: Until your next action gain retribution damage equal to your spell bonus

Giraffe Totem - Slotless - Usable by all

You may equip up to two neck slot items.
You may not equip more than 3 charms.
You may not equip more than 5 Ioun Stones.

Snake Totem - Slotless - Usable by all

You may equip up to two waist slot items.
You may not equip more than 3 charms.
You may not equip more than 5 Ioun Stones.

I'd love to see

Horn of Thirst Quenching (or to be succinct, Horn of Quenching)
Once per game, the owner may use a Common, Uncommon, or Rare Potion as a Free Action without turning the Potion token in.

This proposed effect is slightly less restrictive than Tome of Useful Scrolls (ToUS), but I feel that the limit of only common or uncommon is too strict at once per game, and there are fewer unique potions than scrolls. I'm aware there are many ways to use a potion as a free action, but there is not currently a token that allows a potion to be imbibed without turning in the token similar to ToUS.

Bonus Mystic Staff damage per # of these in the party. 1-2: +2, 3-4: +3, 5: +5.

Bowl of Duplicating (or somebody's Duplicating Bowl)
Duplicates a potion in hand. Must immediately drink from the bowl. 1/game. This basically allows someone to drink an unmodified potion, as a standard action, without turning it in.

Ioun Stone Fluorite Octahedron
+2 to hit and +2 damage with Mystic Staves.

Must have missed this, Glad we're on the same page about needing a "free potion"

Hanzki of Quick Strike (hand slot)
+3 Dex and Quick Strike ability.

Figurine of Power: Sleipnir
+10 to party's initiative roll. 1/game.

Figurine of Power, Moose. 1/game, heal 15 HP from puzzle/push damage taken in the room you are leaving.

I like this: maybe a FoP Ouroboros where it allows time to rewind and give 1 re-roll per game. Can be for bad attack, any type of save even a bad INT. Works as an instant action.

I also like having an Ouroboros Spirit pet. Maybe do sacred dmg but I think spirit pets work like Alchemel weapons ( I know I misspelled that bad 😂 )
