STK ring of feathers-useless?

[Lorz]

I've gotten several FF rings and FF boots from the Sharn syndicate, as well as FF boots from Waterworks. No need to run STK just for a ring anymore.

Course, you might wanna run it several times for ya know...XP.

As for the underlying...its too long/too hard. Just /uninstall now.

I dunno why people say STK takes so long. Just run it on norm, or gods forbid casual, and it shouldn't take much more than 20 minutes max for all 3 parts. Did it with my level 6 bard in under 20 min, so it can't be all that hard. Of course the bard needed the ring and didn't get it. So I decided to run my ranger through and got the ff ring. I'm sure it can be done faster. Hmmm I should try it woth my monk and see what happens.

For me, I don't mind running for the Ring of Feathers.
I just keep the last part open(by not picking up the seal at the end and finishing out). Then I run in once in a awhile and try for one. The run takes about 3 minutes. If I get one great, if not, no biggie. But...it is a nice little item to hand out to a new player who seems cool and might play for a while.

Good Luck!

You realize so long as you don't pick the seal up out of the quest, you haven't completed the quest so you remain on part 3, and you can just keep running it till you get it. That is how I farmed it.

edit: and Arlo beats me by seconds.

Yes, just what I wanted to do.. run STK for XP when I've already done it 23,526 times. No thanks, I'll get my XP elsewhere. Same reason I skip Three-Barrel Cove. I've done it too many times, and the XP isn't required, I can get more elsewhere.

what does kothos have to do with the ring of feathers? if your talking about that cloak you can get its useless the ring of feathers is no lvl full time ff its very useful


that being said its not worth the pp being asked for it on ah and I have given 20 or so of the things away and will continue to give them to deserving people when I have xtras.


NO I dont have any right now but will be trying a time or 20 this weekend to get some more.

[Uska]

remember though that they all have feather cloaks... I can already get feather falling without bothering to lootrun the quest.

as I said that cloak is useless maybe worse then useless it gets people who dont know any better thinking they can ff.

Gravnok's band and the STK FF ring are the two items that get passed down to every toon. I find them incrediably useful at low levels. Would I farm STK just for it? No. But I run STK on every toon a couple times anyway and I find the quest enjoyable, so it's not like a chore regardless.

Go run The Pit and see if you still feel the same way.

The Pit is a lvl 7 quest.

Min lvl 7 FF items are common.

I hold onto all FF items I acquire (Ring of Feathers included) to pass down to alts.

By the time you really need FF, you should be able to get one without doing STK loot runs.

I've always been a fan of the Trapblast Goggles myself. There's no way the ring is "worthless", though. So what if other FF items drop nowadays? If you don't have FF and need it, and want it on a no-minimum-level ring, is there a better choice out there?

yeah but stk ring of feather runs take what 2 or 3 min tops so its pretty easy.

Yah but you have to compelte for those and they changed them to bind to account

Guess I'm lucky. My brain is wired all wrong - I still enjoy running STK for the fun.

Just parked at cleric at 4th so I can run it whenever I want.

[xanvar]

I also run STK because I find it to be a fun quest chain. The experiance is pretty good and the joy of watching people die in fire traps is hard to match.

It's ironic that a zerge run of STK is easier and more fun with FF.

I think that cloak is very useful, I use it on my low level toons in STK to get the ring...

Your forum name goes quite well with the content of the quoted post

agreed.

That's a double facepalm for me.
