TOPIC: 2026 Transmute Tokens

Corey Pressler wrote: Some more thoughts on the Ring of the Sacred Circle:

Looking at the other Transmuted Grand Eldritch tokens that have come before, those were just the name, picture, and serial number. I'm wondering if the same treatment should be given to the Ring. This would give it a more mystical vibe like the others and also allow it to be refined in a way that trying to do that on the token is problematic.

I like the idea of full art / no description - that's cool.

No need to leave open a design window on this, once it's effect is set it should stay put - changing function after people have acquired a token should only be done in the most extreme situations.

I wouldn't want to change its effect after its set. That wasn't my intention. I laid out what I think the effect should be.

Jeff,
This batch of Relics and Legendary are a lot. The Accursed Node and Charm add up to +7 Strength, Dex, and Con. Add in a Ring of the Sacred Circle and you're up to +9 Strength, Dex, and Con. If you are willing to use the Accursed UR tokens, you can go to +13 Strength, Dex, and Con. Add in the volunteer Ioun Stone of the Champion and we're at +15 Strength and Dex, +13 Con. Which is the largest amount of stats added in one year.

With the Arcanum set bonus, every character can equip two FoPs, even Dwarf Fighters. Some people will be equipping three or four. It's completely possible that everyone could get Bel's, maybe even use the Relic too.

Maybe instead if the Accursed Transmutes we could get a Vampire Ring Transmute?
Ring of the Vampire: +2 damage with Melee attacks. Gain 3hp on melee hit [1/room]
Greater Vampire Ring: +3 damage with Melee attacks. Gain 4hp on melee hit [1/room]
Craven's Ring: +5 damage with Melee attacks. Gain 5hp on melee hit [1/room]

After taking time to think about it, the legendary FoP seems like a lot, and not in a way that makes the game exciting to play. I am also in the club of liking a crossbow and cloak better than the current offerings.

I would be a big fan of adding this transmute line for the Ring of the Vampire ^^
The previous cloak and crossbow were good too.

I concur 100%. The old Craven Cloak and Crossbow would be great, or this vampire ring would also be great in place of one of those. Legendary vampire ring is themey, would fit in multiple builds, but doesn't push Cleric out of a Party and doesn't push aside Muk's due to Muk's multi build versatility.

+1 I agree with all of the above, with my preferences being Craven Cloak + Crossbow but the Vampire Ring would also be very cool.

+1 on the Vampire Ring and transmute path for it. Very cool.

Just out of curiosity how many people would be ok with a legendary assassin’s crossbow that only gives the 3x crits to rogue, but keeps the crossbow open for other classes as either a +4 or +5 weapon.
For this we would assume if a class is difficult to program or otherwise makes no since it would be left off.

+1 all day. A fancy x3 crossbow for the vampire hunters and a sinister cloak/ring for the vampires. Seems super fitting.

+4 orange crossbow with 3x crit is fine with me. The relic was awkward. But, that could be fixed.

+1 for crossbow and ring. I like the other items listed.
