Give the Devils of Shav. items all passive abilities.

[Zumurrud]

The Devils of Shavarath sets are meant to be a defining piece of gear for your class; something that someone of the appropriate prestige should want to wear constantly; having clickies on them really reduces the value of several of the items.

Simple fact is, clickies can be clicked, and switched out for separate gear; I want passive benefits on items I should want to constantly wear.

Replace all Clicky spell boost effects with their passive equivalent (Superior Spark 8 on the Air Savant belt becomes Superior Magnetism 8)

Pale Master, since the set bonus overrides any nullification, should get Greater Necromancy Focus.

Ninja Spy's invisibility effect should becomes Move Silently and Hide +15

Turn the Draconic Necklace's GH clicky into a constant Heroism.

Keeping Wild Magic surge would be understandable; if not, give it say a +.25% critical damage to all spells.

The clickie adds more than a worn potentcy type item. It's description is wrong.

I'm well aware of that.

The fact is, for most spells I'll just use a random loot superior clicky (Polar Ray and DBF are pretty much the only mainstream spells that come to my mind where a level 8 clicky is actually better than the plain old random loot level 6 clicky)

Giving them a passive benefit, would give them a stronger purpose of being an item you should constantly wear.

And I'd rather have the clickies.

There are not very many items that will boost a polar ray like the clickie on the belt.

No. Their passive ability is as part of a set.

The Sorc ones have an incorrect description at the moment - they raise Caster Level for spells and such. While this only seems applicable to Polar Ray for the moment, that's still one benefit of the set.

And ... no thanks. I like my Cold Savant having one single 3x3 minute Superior Freeze VIII Clickie, and calling it a day.

I'll give you an example, actually, of why this is a bad idea. We already have such items in game.

• Epic Azure Necklace of Prophecy - (Necklace) Superior Magnetism VIII, Greater Lightning Resistance, Empty Green Augment Slot
• Epic Crimson Necklace of Prophecy - (Necklace) Superior Combustion VIII, Greater Fire Resistance, Empty Green Augment Slot
• Epic Silver Necklace of Prophecy - (Necklace) Superior Glaciation VIII, Greater Cold Resistance, Empty Green Augment Slot

So we already have static items that give us Electric/Fire/Ice VIII, with a 50% bonus to damage of those elements. Heck, they even come with an energy resistance, *and* a Green Slot (GFL, Luck +2, Toughness, Resistance +4, etc..)

Yet, get one of these from EV6, be it base item/seal/shard .... and no one wants it. Why? Because they'd rather use the ToD belt set clickies and get 75% damage when it really matters, and use Potency for all lesser applications.

Misguided though the request may be, I think we can all agree it'd be nice if the sorcerer items were worth wearing for the item themselves, and not just for the +2 level.

It would be nice if they would make them major lore on the set bonuses at least. I don't see any reason to have both items just to get a 5% chance at a crit just for the .5 boost to crit damage. Two items just for the crit damage boost isn't enough when you can get a weapon with that item on and swap what you need.

Even with them being major lore, I'm not sure I'd use a belt slot just for that if I find something else I'd rather have there.
