Tinkers set Broken

[Alerax]

Been looking around, but see nothing on this. Yet the fixed/reforged Tinkers gloves and googles say they have True seeing. Umm if they do its a whole new kind, lol. Tharnes Google's still work, I have no true seeing with the Tinker's set equipped. Makes me wounder what else is not working, I.e. is the exceptional +2 seeker working? main thing tho, no true seeing on the set and it should be, Just wanted to let it be known if it hasn't been posted or noted as of yet.
Thx

Not working for me or any of my guildies either.

Can you confirm whether or not the Sneak Attack +5 portion works? I had heard that was also bugged and not functioning.

Well, at least this justifies my being lazy on unlocking the set bonus. :(
Shame, this was going to be my next lill project.


And further evidence for my personally held belief that U11 has been the buggiest/sloppiest update yet.

The +5 seems to be working, but its hard as heck to be able to be sure. My SA damage does seem to be a few point higher on average so I think the +8 Dmg is working, But on the same note, I seem to hit less with my Bloodstone equipped, so there seems to be other bugs working in the set as well. If anyone can confirm if the other bonuses from the set are or not working, plz let us know.

Thx

I can confirm the sneak attack bonus *is* working, and the true seeing *is not*.

It's not too hard to test the sneak attack - go bare handed and compare no equip/Tharnes/Tinker's on something vulnerable to sneak attack.

In U11 I was concerned it was because the Cannith set bonuses were broken - Tinker's Goggles were not supposed to be in the game yet, they were left in a loot table by accident. However, the sneak attack bonus does work and other sets like Magewright's work, so I think they just flubbed the true seeing.

I'd still be interested to see someone who looted a pair of Goggles from Bulat's chest in U11.1 test, but I expect there'd be no difference.

I just picked up both pieces yesterday. 1 set of goggles out of Bulat's chest. So ya, even with 11.1 updates, same gear and problems. thx for the confirm on the +5 Sneak bonuses CDR.

While we're on the subject, I'd also be interested to know whether Goggles are still dropping from Schemes normal/hard post-U11.1. Anyone?

[Kakow]

It could be my astronomical bad luck, but I ran Schemes to ransack today and never once saw the goggles drop.

Several folks told me try Bulat's chest a few times, and voila, second try there they were.

It's a good thing Schemes is fun (at least in my opinion, it's dang sure not your typical cave with monsters in it).

Also, didn't do any exhaustive studies, but both my normal attacks and criticals are higher with the set than without it. It's pretty easy math when my crit multiplier is just x2....I can easily see I'm doing 4 more points of damage than normal.

Schemes drops both Goggles and Gloves on normal. Was farming out the 2 named chests and got 1 set goggles and 3 sets gloves, yesterday(post 11.1 update). that was solo norm runs with a hire.

Thank you. I wonder whether the devs will ever notice/fix the broken loot table on Schemes.
