Tempest Spine is the only raid at the moment without named loot...

Tempest Spine has named loot.

Have to say I completely overlooked these...
Thanks you guys.
At the same time the loot is rather underwhelming. I'm still a bit curious what may happen to it. I'd rather not want to speculate about the raid itself... :/ but I did.

The Mad Lute gets a revamp in Update 17, along with a couple hundred of other named items from Module 9 and previous updates to the game.

(...)

Is there any word if the items previously acquired will be affected by this revamp (stone of change cleansing?) or will we have to get new ones?

I've got one sitting in my bard's bank but never actually used it ... but depending on what the item will be like after the update i might even conside respecing my to specialize in that weapon
That's providing i will not have to reaquire the mad lute again as it was painful to drop in the first place.

The only raid with items that will be changed is Tempest's Spine, so don't feel like you need to stop playing raids until then. Some specific favorites that we felt people would be sensitive to changing are also not being altered- Carnifex, Docent of Defiance, Spell Storing Ring, Planar Gird, and similar.

Expect more details in a few weeks. Merry Chrismahannukwanzisolstifestivus.

Aw, you're giving me such a lovely Christmas gift! <3

Just reread this, so really what ur saying is outside of citw we have no reason to raid since its all dated and power creep has made most raid gear trash.

A good portion of those items were trash to start with

But its more so now ran gen stuff beats out alot of it. I would really like the devs to take a look at dq items they can be a pain to grind and epic (I dont see it happening but I can dream) and alchemical weapons have always been underwhelming imo considering the grind involved, more so now they are a place holder at best unless u are a wraps user, could see a 1 hander shield combo for casters and so on. I do find it funny that gs has almost the same exact niche at least for me.

I dont really expect anything to change in the near future, just pointing out that some fun raids really arnt being run because well outside of fun there is nothing to be gained from them (And I do still hit lfms for older fun stuff on occasion for u guessed it fun but ed's has drained most of that)

Another raid pass would nice maybe beef up ee version of the old raids that have epic and adding epic the the raids that dont have it atm (ee tempest spine baby!), at the same time u can do a item pass to make running the raids worthwhile outside of the fun factor (again I dont see this happening anytime soon like never but somtimes the glass really is half full), EE hox could be pretty nasty Imagine 3 or 4 of the big beholders coming into center at the same time lolz

Bit late to reply to this, but that list you quoted isn't correct, at least not anymore. I know for certain the choker of the silver tongue has been upgraded to +5 charisma, 10 bluff, and 10 diplomacy. Which leads me to assume some of the other gear from TS might have undergone a similar update. (goggles of perception, likewise, were just spot/search +5 before, but got boosted to attack +2, spot 10, search 10 during that same pass).
