Speculation on the 20th reward for shroud....I think it's......

[Mhykke]

I think the 20th reward will be you get an item that you place your greensteel item in an altar and it cleanses it.

Think it makes sense. That way, the devs allow you to have more than 1 item equipped, but make you run 20 runs of that raid, crafting along the way. The devs allow you to equip more than 1 item, but make you take some time to do it.

[Impaqt]

Nice theory... I hope your right....

[Turial]

My theory is that the missinring green blanks are in the 20th reward table. Scimitars, Axes, Rapiers, Armor, Shields, Rings, Trinkets and the like.

Cleansing the green weave items looks to be tied to the one elf with the glowing eyes. I would imagine once you get all 4 of the shroud turn-ins complete the quest givers will tell you that so-and-so can clean your items up for a price (insert mad scientist laughter).

This seems like a good theory.

[sigtrent]

My theory is there isn't a 20th run reward.

[Zor_Prime]

Maybe the 20th reward is 1000 (one-thousand) Khyber Dragonshards. That would be nice...

[Darth_Sizzle]

My theory is there isn't a 20th run reward.

The devs have already stated that there is a 20th run reward. I believe the only thing they said was "it's vast and mysterious."

That being said, I think another possibility is a list of +3 Tomes :eek:

[tihocan]

My theory is that it will be bugged, forcing the first players getting to 20 to reach 40 for their next reward, then they will get mad, threaten to quit, and DDO will be doooooomed.

[Mad_Bombardier]

That being said, I think another possibility is a list of +3 Tomes :eek:Ooh, good one. Not very mysterious, but vast knowledge. :)

Think BIG............+4 tomes FTW:D

mine too

[debo]

The developers said they were upgrading certain abbot raid items to compensate us for the time/materials/effort it required to beat that raid. Their idea of an upgrade to the robe in that raid was to give it light fortification. So... I wouldn't be surprised if the described "vast and mysterious" 20th raid reward for the shroud is a giant list of diddly poo... meaning... completely useless. :rolleyes:

[Strykersz]

Vast and mysterious was El's description of the anniversary content. http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p=1557042&postcount=16

That's his description of the 20th reward. However, if it turns out to be "Rupees"(money) I'm going to be...unhappy.

[DelScorcho]

"Its a secret to everyone", including, apparently, developers.

[liamfrancais]

Ok so what is the most raid completions so far. I have never been past 4. Most of the time it is to 3 then "well if you want to see what it is like", not too many interested in completing it.

[Coldin]

Well, my personal bet is that it will be a list of random fully upgraded green steel items and weapons.

[wimcolgate]

Inferred from this thread, you can only equip *one* green item at a time? (that's right, I have ZERO so far ;-)).

[Garth_of_Sarlona]

My guess is it'll be 'already imbued' shards of great/supreme power which you get to pick from. Saves a LOT of looting, and ties with the rest of the 'raid loot' which is already ingredients.

Probably four by now (on one char).

It's not that people aren't interested in completing it, it's that there is so much farming required that putting yourself on the raid timer will delay your ability to make the rewards by about thirty-fold.

[maddmatt70]

Is this even working properly? I can't tell as it does not show up in my /quest completion, although I have completed the raid 3 times with one character. I am slightly nervous about this as the timer was not functioning properly when the mod first came out so could the same be said of the quest completions.. I can't tell if this is a bug or if there is some sort of stealth counter or what...

[Boulderun]

Nobody knows. Much like the broken collectibles - Valok has 14 healing totems, but only 4 on the quest progress counter. Will those count when (if) it is fixed, or are they a waste of space?

[Osharan_Tregarth]

Inferred from this thread, you can only equip *one* green item at a time? (that's right, I have ZERO so far ;-)).

You can have more than one weapon... But if you try to equip more than one item at a time, you end up getting hp drained.. Umm.. 30 pts every couple of seconds? I don't know the exact numbers, but I vaguely remember someone talking about it last week.

[Turial]

The hp drain only happens with multiple green weave items as the weapons can kill things to feed their demonic thirst for blood.

[KatanAztar]

Really hoping for +4 tomes, and would be very dissapointed if it were anything else.

[bobbryan2]

My theory... and I think it's pretty obvious if you think about it...

An item that will take the taint off an item... so you can wear one item per 20 runs you do.

[Mhykke]

The essences of cleansing are congregating in the 20th completion list. Waiting patiently. Waiting to strike. Each raid completion brings their prey closer to the 20th completion, where the essence will unleash their crafty ... essence...ness...

In short yes, the essence of cleansing is available in reward list of your 20th raid completion.

However, these should not be confused with the essences of tasty ham, nor the essences of burrito, which never appear in any end reward list.

Just posting this in case people missed....

[Beerthirty]

Well, my personal bet is that it will be a list of random fully upgraded green steel items and weapons.

Think you might be on to something... what about the possibility of a regular greensteel blank.. Like a greataxe, or a rapier, or a repeater... Something you cannot craft.. Now that would be something.

Cookie?

[Vardak]

My theory is that whenever the reward is finally discovered there will be a huge thread arguing how lame/marvelous it truly is. This thread will be locked and infraction points assigned.


Look at me I'm Nostradomus, you can take my prediction to the bank!

[Beherit_Baphomar]

mine too

Why do y'all keep saying you dont think there is a 20th????
A dev has already told us there is....

Ooo, looks like I was dead on.

If you look at when I said that it was quite a while ago; before or unknowingly just after a dev posted there was a reward. I have not posted anything on the subject since.

besides, just cause they said there was one, doesn't mean I'll like it ;) and would be just as good as no reward lol.
