cunning trinket event item.

[CaptGrim]

Anyone know if the cunning trinket 8.1 event item DCs stack with existing items.

My guess is no, but with the stacking seeker for the bold trinket one never knows.
Although melee getting uber stacking buffs while casters get the shaft would be nothing new.

There's a thread in General that says that it doesn't. I'm getting really annoyed with all of this stuff that gives melee classes incremental advantages (stacking +2 Seeker, for example) while casters get more stuff that doesn't stack.

Thanks +1, and we are in agreement

stacking melee good
stacking casting bad
This seems to be the idea in the item design department, not counting the eardweller you have to go back to the mod 5(abbot) to see unique and porerful caster items.

Imo a +1 stacking DC would be just right for a trinket, you couldn't wear the litany, eardweller, or HOGF. With +6 psionic str bonus, +2 stacking seeker, epic items that help the charactor other than gear consolidation, melee are the most spoiled of ddo archetypes.

Logging in right now to check...

... and the Greater Cunning Trinket does not stack with any other +1 Enchant DC Item. Tested with bracers and Spirit Sight goggles.

[CaptGrim]

Cool, that's for the check.

+1 to you too.

[bashemgud]

Pure BS.

And people are still calling for nerfs on the ornemental dagger. W-T-F

[pie2655]

The dagger isnt even that great. And the potency on the hat is BS 50% for lvl 1 spells ***? no lvl 3 or lower wizard is gonna be famring this event.

Wat? You do know that you can upgrade the hat to Superior Potency VI, right?

Consider me not impressed.

indeed. that's a very common find. archmagi (for the hat) is a much better find.

it's kinda sad really. the only thing from this event that has my casters interested is basically only going to be equipped long enough to click and use it, then will be relegated back to an inventory slot. and even then, i doubt i'll need it much... honestly, my sorc doesn't use direct damage enough to run out of mana, my pale master wizard uses necrotics and doesn't get maximise, and the blaster evoc archmage wizard is already getting it for free.

even for a healer... honestly? you gonna stop in the middle of healing everyone to activate 20 seconds of free maximise? "hold up guys, stop taking damage for a minute. i'm gonna activate my free maximise clicky, just tell harry to stop throwing fireballs and meteor swarms". yeah... sure... that'll work.

it's nice, don't get me wrong. sadly, i don't expect to get much use out of it.

[stille_nacht]

its because they think that people can get like 9 daggers and have constant free maximize, what they forget is it doesnt even matter, barbs are still doing more damage than me, the caster, when i spam spells >.>, much more efficient to stick with my 42 hold...

superior potency 7 is very nice for a healer who may need to cycle in a mass cure mod in between mass cures

you know what would be even nicer? a superior ardor VIII clicky. or 2 of them. for a total of 18 minutes of healing.

[Habreno]

While I don't know if the +1 stacks, the SP boost is +50 sp instead of the written +30. I have tested this on my Cleric.

[Kinerd]

If it makes you feel better the seeker from the trinket isn't stacking as advertised.

4 Sorcs can take down Harry in Shroud part 4 in a single pass on Normal. VERY few melees can do that level of damage.


Still - the trinket is garbage.

1. Mass Cure Moderate is a level 6 spell, so is covered by normal Superior Potency 6 (like that on the base Epic item).
2. For using Mass Cures, nothing beats the two ToD belts, as they give a +75% bonus to level 8 and lower healing spells.

This.

Not very useful on a capped character as nearly every setup has similar bonuses elsewhere and I personally do not like the idea to use it while levelling up simply because I ALWAYS forget re-equip the voice before completing the quest

Tier 1 gives 50(100) SP that stack with everything else. If you don't have something particularily good in that trinket slot at L20 then its a good item for almost no investment. So what do you have in that trinket slot on your caster?

Not having my TOD rings yet so the winner is..... Tier 3 spyglass!

+2 exceptional INT > 50 SP
