u17 - dragon helms awesome again?

[phalaeo]

EE white, blue and black dragons will separate the gimps from the men (and women):P

This woman will be logging in for EE Tor. Sounds like a ton of fun, whereas I haven't been that excited about the "new" endgame content coming out.

There could be another dragon ... say, "Hunter Orange Dragon", with wisdom.
A rare species, for obvious reasons.

The Orange Queen is not from D&D.

and I'm not sure she will be happy to have people come to her lair and annoy her.

[ Any reference to another PnP RPG is fully intentional ]

Adding another slot option for +3 int is full of win.

I really hope the Epic helms, at least this blue, works like named items after MotU:

Three version with Cha, Int and Wis.

If not, it's lame.

Someone confirm this please :P

I think they should stick close to orignal items which means blue=int white=str and black =dex might be aggervating but there is the slots to help make up for that.

Slots don't make up for anything.

If blue is Int only, any caster but wizzies is pratically screwed.

Slots do not "make up" for +3 Insight.

No Cha, or Wis puts a serious crimp in Clerics, Favored Souls, Paladins, Bards.

Perhaps, but at the same time, have 9 different version of an item is also highly annoying.

They have to make a +3 int, wis and charisma for all 3 levels of that.

That's not an issue, though - especially with BtCoE with the only difference between levels being slots. The only annoying part will be waiting for the one you want to appear either in the chest for you or for a reasonable price.

So I've been holding on to about half a dozen dragon helms so I would have them when Epic GH came out. I was thinking in terms of the scroll/shard/seal system. Does this mean that those are useless (can't be upgraded), and it will be all about re-running Tor 1000 times on epic levels to get the new versions to drop?

Looks that way.

[Missing_Minds]

So ask the next question.

How did the heroic versions of the helms change?
Did the dragonscale armor (heroic) change to get slots? (didnt' that one get answered? I forget.)

I have seen reports that blue can be int/cha/wis and that black and white can be dex/str/con.

Rejoice!
