[alexthegood]

Pretty sure if you bound all peoples tomes to account the uprising and nerdrage would be incredible.

might be fun to watch...

Agreed but I don't think that is what the OP means. lol My guess is that he is referring to tomes that are BTC. If a tome is BTC and then we are able to retain our tomes on a TR, that pretty much makes those tomes nothing but vendor fodder. Are tomes used in crafting? Sorry, I haven't gotten into that yet.

Well I just got 1750 favour and a BTC tome but as im a tr *** good is it so its now 9 Eberons for crafting

And for all those that say why bother running the raid if u dont need a tome is GUILD RENOWN

[WruntJunior]

I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. Doomsayers will say that this will end +4 tomes going up for roll...but honestly, I've never seen a +4 tome up for roll...

I always put up "useless" tomes for roll on my accounts unless they're unbound or BtA. I've gladly passed a +4 intelligence tome to the party wizard, simply because 5 extra skill points is much less useful to me on a melee toon than +1 DC on a wizard is.

MajMal has already said they will not be retro-modifying the tomes as that is much more complex then it sounds. That includes changing the bound state of tomes.

My Own personal feeling is, I would must rather they did not mess with tomes on the eve of them modifying their future behavior, that is like asking, nay, begging! for something to get bugged.

They are allowing us to Keep Tomes upon TR. Lets try to be happy about that.

This^



And besides, this change will make BTC tomes rolled for more often. This is a very good change *as is*!

All this will do is gut many raids of players interested in running them. My cleric already has a full head of +3 tomes and all the item loot from hox, vod, reavers so as long as tomes remain btc that is one less healer interested in running those ever again. Tome are what kept many people running these otherwise completely played out raids.

So does that mean that only tomes consumed after U13 will be kept upon TR?

[Quarterling]

Yes, I TR'ed yesterday and have not received the inherit tome bonus at level three so I can confirm.

Did you TR in lama? or live? Because the code is not live yet.

[Ungood]

I was under the impression that any tome would be retained, as long as you TRed after U13 went live, but, to be fair they did not explicitly spell that out.

I got the general consensus that all tomes would be behaving the same way in the end of things. However, with anything like this, I am never one to jump the gun before the show started you know. IE: I am keeping all my tomes in the bank till after U13 and not TRing till then.

thats a lie and not what he said at all

That is exactly what I was thinking.
I'm also not a big fan of retrofitting any items. It is not as easy as you may think.

While that is hardly positive he certainly didn't give any absolute no

Here is the whole topic: Link Provided

Feel free to read his response in context talking to another poster.

hmm, all those tomes going to waste, maybe Turbine should
just leave them as they are .....

He may as well said "Not gonna happen"

But feel free to cling to any hope you want, as it stands, it is clear that making changes is not easy, nor is it welcome by the Devs.

This topic has been discussed before, and for the life of me, I can't understand why it is even being brought up. As opposed to be thankful for this change, people are making a fuss about it? Really? Really?

[Xenostrata]

If not chest tomes, 20th completion (or w/e) tomes should be made bta. Those aren't going up for roll.

with the change to TR that would be good any tome not up for possible passing should be BTA
