Cannith Crafting: Monk Ring Damage Effects

[Arlathen]

Well Turbine, you have to admit that Handwraps have been giving you and us Monk players some serious heartache since the inception of Cannith Crafting.

The list of problems relating to Handwraps has been long: Enhancement bonus' not working, Alignment DR Bypass not working, Ghost Touch not working and Stunning Effects still not available to be applied to Handwraps on the Item Crafter.

While agitated by these things, I understand its 'still in Beta'.

So, to show us some Monk love, how about allowing a series of new effects similar to the Current Tower of Despair Ring loot we have?

I.E A Ring only effect that applies only to Unarmed attacks, with two stages:

D2 Elemental Damage - +1 Power Level Shard (Fire, Shock, Acid effects etc)
D4 Aligned Damage - +3 Power Level Shard (Good, Evil, Law, Chaos etc)

Nothing major really, although these effects should also bypass applicable DR and be affected by Vulnerability escalation as normal i.e Devil Good DR Bypass, or Troll Acid Vulnerability. The current ToD ring restriction of non-stacking effects should still apply, i.e not two rings will both have D4 Good Damage on them.

D2/D4 really isn't much, even 2D4 on a pair of Rings. However this would give low to mid level Monks some excellant help in increased DPS without de-valueing the Raid loot available to them and also helping them with DR breaking issues.

And no, I'm not a fan of the Shadow Crypt grind when every other class has easy access to Metalline of Pure Good random loot

This sounds like 25 more bugs just waiting to happen. If they can get it programmed 100% correctly the first time and not have it break down the road, /signed.
Otherwise, I would prefer the current problems to be addressed before adding any more into the mix.
