    Default What do you put on craftable trinkets?

    Assuming Cannith Crafting ever comes back...

    Until now craftable trinkets came from Shroud (meaning you had to be Shroud-flagged), or were bought with real money, or found rare-as-hens-teeth in other chests. Now that there's a flood of BtC trinkets from Jack Frost, what are you going to put on them?

    There's a nice low-level trinket of Secret Door Detection that was put together for the Crafting Cookbook as well. The shard could go on goggles as well (for a non-trinket option), but you may have something in your goggle slot already, so it's a nice option.

    I put battle skill +2 & efficient metamagic:maximise as a switchable on my FvS & battleclonk... greater spell focus (whichever school you need) plus good luck is a nice combo too.. maybe even make multiple ones for different schools.
    I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was, now what's it is weird and scary to me.

    10% melee alacrity has been one of my favorite low level options. Only slightly slower than haste and usable at level 3. It's saved me a ton of plat on haste pots while leveling.

    But the question is, "Does it stack with haste?"

    I have a hunch that the answer is no, because the majority of things(For both good and bad reasons) usually don't stack in-game.

    It doesn't stack with haste, so I don't use it much at higher levels unless I'm soloing on a melee, but like I said, it's quite useful at low levels in place of haste pots.

    I am at 93 arcane/ 93 divine / 93 elemental so I have been able to play with quite a few options.

    These are all nice twink and situational items for my monk:

    Fire Absorption 33% trinket (not as good as greaves, but low ML so great in places like Taming the Flames)
    Electric Absorption 33% trinket (not as good as ring of the djinn, but again low ML so wonderful for certain low level elite runs)
    Melee Alacrity trinket (tried this on my zombie monk to offset some of the slow attack penalty - works pretty well!)
    Good Luck +2 trinket
    Natural armor +3 of dodge +2
    Blindness ward of true seeing


    and other options for non-monks:

    Persuasion trinket for quick haggle boost (very cheap - good item)

    Efficient Empower Healing II of Major Healing Lore

    Silver Flame (increases the Total Hit Dice of Undead Turned by +6) of Eternal Faith (effective level while Turning is increased by 2, the maximum hit dice you can affect is increased by 2). Note: Eternal Faith also increases the total hit dice you can affect by +4 but this is superceded by Silver Flame / doesn't stack.)

    Resistance +5

    Default Warning!

    Unless you deconstruct them first, they will take a whole lot of shards of potential, and that's about it. I learned the hard way, made a bug report and received conformation on the bug report. In the process I may have lost 3 shards of potential(and all the essences involved in making them) and a craftable trinket. I wont know for sure until crafting returns. Lesson learned, shared and not to be repeated.

    The toon with BtC shard is an AA 19, soon to be AA 20. She already has True Seeing (ML 16 Spyglass), so Detect Secret Doors trinket is redundant. Mostly she wears Greater Stalwart Trinket, and switches to Nighthag Heartstone as soon as stoneskin on Stalwart Trinket procs. When stoneskin wears off, put Stalwart Trinket back on.

    So my goal is -- something better than Nighthag Heartstone. Or something good against undead/constructs, since they are not affected by Nightmare Guard.

    Honestly, as an AA, especially if you mostly range, you should just to with a bloodstone or arrowhead. (unless you have a superior source of seeker). Melee alacrity would bs the next best to me, depending on how often you put down the bow.

    I went with Efficient Metamagic - Empower II of Good Luck +2 on mine on my sorc. Put Greater Evocation Focus and Moderate Fort (he's WF) on a 1 hander to dual wield with the lvl 16 CC dagger.

    It's also useful in ToD, once your haste runs out.

    When I get a craftable trinket, it's going to have some level of healing lore on it. I'd like to put it on a shield with Superior Devotion VI for my cleric, but can't make that yet.

    You know, in my case -- I solo a lot, will never get high crafting level, and the toon in quesiton is a ranger, -- Healing Lore may be the best choice.
