Quick thought Re:Dragon, Giant, Elven Bane

[TheDearLeader]

They want to make these items slightly harder to make.

They want to use currently existing in-game items to accomplish this.

The current requirements are opposed by a large majority of the people who are aware of these changes.

So.. just a quick thought.

Rather than Dragon Scales, or Giant Slayer Knife, Flawless Sib Shards, Blood of Dragons, etc. unrealistic stuff...

Gianthold Relics. Draconic, Elven, and Giant Relics. Drop out of Rare chests, and every quest out there but Tor. (Reaver's Fate is a Raid, not a Quest.)

Perfect idea to implement them. It limits crafting without overlimiting it. 3 Each for Regular Bane, 5 each for Greater Bane.

Discuss.

What if I don't own Gianthold? (Which I don't) What are the current prices on relics in the auction house?

I'd assume less than they used to be, considering it used to take 20 of each to Tor flag, now it only takes 9.

Regardless, the crafting implementations they are putting in will require some P2P content. Even the stuff that isn't BtC comes from P2P quests, so you'll either have to run it or buy it. I don't like it necessarily either, but I wanted to propose something slightly more realistic.

I like the idea. We could use more rare but less desirable collectibles like that. How about black dragon scales?

I'm even fine with small shroud ingredients and possibly mediums.

Epic tokens for really really powerful stuff maybe maybe.

I like the suggestion of using GH relics.

[Kourier]

Logically it makes sense I'm just being cheap.

[TheDearLeader]

Okay, sounds good.. seems like people are more willing to part with Relics than with a feat swap, big surprise...

Anyone else have thoughts/support/complaints?

[bigolbear]

sounds fine by me.

there collectables after all. this is exactly the kind of thing rarer recipies should be using.
