New augment location survey

[SealedInSong]

Given the exciting peek from Tolero and FeatherofSun about the upcoming U17 revamp of item augmentations here, where would you like to see augments added?

I'll compile the ideas I find most interesting in this post with credits to the poster.

I personally would like to suggest that extra augments be added to some particularly weak Sands items due to the relative difficulty of constructing them; ex: anything rated poor by Sirgog in his epic item review.

FoS has stated that hundreds of named items from Module 9 and earlier are already under review, presumably with both rebalancing and augment slotting in mind. Without first seeing a comprehensive list of what the devs are already working on, it would be difficult to not create a largely redundant list ourselves unless we limit it to anything that came after Module 9.


With all that said, one thing I would like to see is the slot on Epic Ornamental Dagger switched from Yellow to Orange, so that it can take either Yellow or Red augments. Or, give it a second augment slot that is Red.

Epic named items, without exception

It was stated in both the video and forums, about the whole system is getting a makeover. That would include all loot except for named items.
If that has changed, I haven't seen any new info on it.

well .. all the stuff from evening star could use augments.

And all the epic items with spell power on em are gona need red slots (yes im including body slot items) if they are gona keep spell power as a RED. - a better solution is to make that colourless but ive already been into that elsewhere.

My concern is that this equipment is far too easy to obtain. However, I guess it would make sense if some of them (the more expensive or powerful ones, like the commendation-turn-in armors) could have a colorless slot. I think the relics could certainly use slots too, particularly the ones that aren't vastly superior (Sireth, Mornh, Balizarde, Needle, Pinion, Celestia) to some of their other named/lootgen counterparts.

I guess I'd also have to see how some of the epic GH stuff compares. It would be fine to me if the items that require scrolls/seals/shards had more augments and the ones that come premade have fewer.

I think it looks pretty good to me (hooray for the addition of striding!).

I just want to know am I safe to convert my Tier 3 epic cannith challenge items or will they revert to tier 1?
