A comment from a developer is urgently needed on whether or not the Tower Raid sets are working as intended, specifically the archmage (and other caster) set that increase the chance and damage of critical spells. It currently does not stack with Greater Arcane Lore.
Are they suppose to stack?
(a) - If yes, will it be fixed?
(b) - If no, are they ever going to change it so they do stack?
If the sets are working as intended and aren't going to be changed, then we know not to waste our time with these pieces of ****, and its a pretty big disappointment...
If the sets are suppose to stack (or are going to be changed so they stack) then I might actually try to acquire them.
We need a developer to comment on this.

When I get new gear from a new raid, I expect it to be better than what I already have.

My guess is that the Epic sandstorm goggles will be pretty...epic, as well. Originally Posted by Thrudh

The bottom line is that the new level 20 raid has a terrible loot system. It only truly benefits some and completely does not benefit a lot of others. Just straight up not planned properly.
The real slap in the face is to have them create capstones so that the pure classes can try to catch up to some of the multiclass builds and then have it all taken back by not having anything stack with the capstones.
I just don't understand the logic.

And for that matter. Will they all be updated to be something different when the caster PrE are released?
Right now, most of the caster, cleric, monk ones look more like placeholders than anything.

Also add that the Deepwood Sniper Set (I tested myself) does not stack with anything. Additionally, the ranger capstone does not stack with either the Deepwood or Arcane Sets. I have had a few PM conversations back and forth with Turbine reps, but nothing was stated on if they are treating it as a bug or as intended. The only thing I do know is that do not consider it a high priority like some of the other bugs they have on their plates.
At this point, I am just asking the devs if the ring stacking issues are considered working as intended or bugged. If its bugged, then we have to wait until it is fixed. If it is working as intended, then we have a different issue on our hands.

OFFICIAL ANSWER:
Deepwood is working as intended, which is to NOT stack with the ranger capstone. So, go ahead and grab the arcane archer line only if you are multiclassed since there is basically no raid loot for the pure ranged ranger.

If they do not stack with capstone, do they at least stack with Haste? If not, what the hell is the point of having the items? Also, what's the point of the DWS and AA items having different alacrity bonuses (+5% vs. +10%)? Originally Posted by barecm

well, as said, they arent working. and they DO only benefit some. take fvs for example. either you go archmage or shintao set, neither really intended for the class, but there nonetheless. implosion dont work for a new class, that you have to pay for. abbott and MD spell is still being used, allowing stuff to be broken, and not fixing it. so, yeah, im not surprised that turbine dropped the ball again. its ridiculous that they are raking in money hand over fist, and not putting a full team on the important bugs, instead of hairdye reversal. but, alas, no response from turbine to answer the question on the table...
