    Should you not be able to choose the tome you get?

    Couple other options to consider:

    1. second selectable +2 tome OR +3 in the same stat you got last time. Coolness of getting a +3 tome, but doesn't let you get both a +2 and a +3 from favor alone.

    2. Not the same thing, but as I and others have posted before, a favor reward allowing you to open quests on any level. Of course you would need to set a max quest level. For example, at 2350 favor on any toon on that server, all your toons can open level 12 and lower quests on elite.

    I was thinking the exact same thing. And wouldn't it be a bit odd if you took your 1750 tome in your primary stat and the 2350 tome in your secondary stat. That way your secondary stat would be 'better', if you see what I mean

    I could see a lot of people getting upset about this if they did implement a +3 tome as a later favor reward. All those who took the +2 in their primary stat would raise a ruckus that they had "wasted" the +2 tome since they would want to use the +3 tome in their primary stat and it would overwrite the +2, thus making it completely wasted.

    Actually, speaking only for myself, a +3 tome for my two "mains" would not benefit me at all. Both are at max right now, with 34 in either Dex or Cha and obviously an added +1 wont help one bit.

    That's not true... The next set of stat items could have another +1 on them...we have another stat point increase coming to us in the next level increase.... if part of your stat comes from the use of APs the extra tome point could allow you to free up APs for other enhancements. And of course it could go into a secondary stat instead.

    A +3 tome is always nice

    does no one remember why we got the +2 favor tome in the first place?

    originally, 1750 favor gave us another character slot and 32 point builds. that's it.

    And....?

    Oh do you mean that the tome was supposed to take the 28pt build up to a 32 pt build? That stopped making sense when they let you get the +2 on drow and 32ptrs.

    just reminding us that it (*edit* the +2 favor tome */edit*) was added in after everyone read 1750 by players as a big "congrats! now go reroll!"

    Of course, drow was seen the same way, but it never got changed. Probably because it was no where near the top of the current favor value when it was added.

    28+2 = 32+2? Why would anyone try to argue that?

    Obviously their intent WASN'T to balance out 28&32, or as you said: 32's wouldn't get tomes.

    1750 favor BEFORE TOMES was interpreted as that.

    my argument is thus:
    since 32pts and drow DO get favor tomes, favor tomes either
    a) had nothing to do with balancing them out with 28pt builds.
    b) involved an oversight, granting them to drow and 32pt builds.

    Default 1750 a while ago?

    400 - Drow
    1750 - +2 Tome 32pt Build

    1750 was so long ago? 1350 favor point difference between the last 2 rewards for the overall favor. The next mark based on what you see ingame right now is 5000. That might be a little too far off but I think 2350 is a little too close. Maybe 3000 should be the next overall favor point reward....

    I would however like to see the 400 point silver flame reward be decent.
