Drop rare +10 stat augments from E3BC an you'll double its longevity

[Delacroix21]

I wouldnt mind seeing this too. Would also like to see 20 skill ifems, 10 dodge, etc etc

[Delacroix21]

Then again you know what would be preety awesome? If instead of the rare ml-2 items we went diablo 2 style and had rare random drops with 3 effects! These would add excitement and mystery to looting epic chests, and would be extremely sough after!

Like for example a rare chance at finding a random loot belt with 10 con, 10 dodge, 10 prot!

[Delacroix21]

Could also add super rare random loot weapons with 4 effects instead of 2. But even with 4 would they be better then a piece of raid loot? Probably not actually.


Hmmmm... How about then super rare random loot weapons that have +1 crit range and multiplier. So when you pull one once in a blue moon you do a happy dance.


I feel like looting non raid chests/named chests has lost all its excitement. Changes like this would bring it back. It will feel like pulling a vorpal back in update 5, or pulling a wounding of puncturing back then too. I miss those days

The Dev team should have made a named yellow augment that granted 30% Healing Amp.

[Drwaz99]

Yes, do this please.

There should also be 10/20/30% repair amp augments/gear (other than Shadowscale Armor and Icon of the Lord of Blades).

[Portalcat]

If you make E3BC drop +12 stat randgen items and +6 tomes, you'll triple its longevity.

If you make it drop Otto's boxes, you'll at least quadruple its longevity.











Would you like to get things you ask for? Then try asking for things that make remote sense rather than augments scaled to levels in the mid 30s as drops in a level 25 quest chain.

It seems silly to possibly break the game trying to double the longevity of a pack upgrade that is only intended to fill space until actual real new content can be released.

boo... filler packs...With all the work and effort it takes to make content. this would be a failure mentality for a game.

Content needs to be maintained to entice people to want to play all content all the time.

The whole levelling growth development of the DDO environment would be worthless if it was a zerg to endgame and just run end content all the time... may as well just give everyone access to XP capping stones and.. oh wait.... nvm...

[Dalsheel]

Yes, do this please.

Yes, because BF are so rare these days. People need some more incentive to play one...

[moo_cow]

? a +12 Stat... This I have not seen.. what has a +12 stat.

He just be making stuff up

It has nothing to do with incentive to play a bladeforged. It's incentive to play the content they are creating. Repair augments would in my opinion give people more reasons to run the content which as it stands now will be one-and-done for a large part of the player population.

Just because you seem to be against BF/WF or their popularity doesn't make it a bad idea. People like playing bladeforged. Their reasons aren't important. Adding something that encourages the mass of people playing BF to continue to run the content beyond what they normally would have is a good idea.

If you don't agree, I suggest asking yourself the question "Seriously?".

EE incentives please.

Your wish is granted:

Seriously? You're playing the "incentive to play the content" card now... Asking for crazy stuff for "the good of the game"?
What's next? Auto-granted quicken on your BF? Inherent Transform Kinetic Energy?

You can stop pretending now, we all know what you really meant: "600hp Recon SLA isn't good enough to top my red bar up from 20% to 100%, I want ways to make it 800hp or even 1000hp"

I don't understand you people, you're playing a race that has uninterruptible Recon SLA with 6sec cool-down on its racial tree and you keep asking for more and more cheese.
Hopefully the Devs can see their huge mistake now and will just ignore you.

I try to not let my personal feeling regarding something completely cloud my vision. This is how I see it:

Lots of people play BF's. Why is irrelevant. It's a fact. We aren't discussing that here. This thread is about how to make E3BC more popular than it will be.
Create an item that people want that is not available anywhere else as of yet.
Make it rare.
Cash in on that large group of people with increased interest in an area that they might not otherwise have.

Yes please, along with 10/20/30% heal amp augs.

Aside from the other good suggestions for loot in 3BC I would also want to see a +2 Profane boost to stats in a Trinket. Litany of the Dead is played out and there needs to be an Epic version of this item somewhere else in the game.

Also if you really want to impress people - create an item that grants Evasion while worn. General requirements for evasion to work still must be met.

I was just thinking about an "upgraded" Litany type item today. Great idea. The best part about this potential item is that everyone will want to grind for it. +2 profane to stats, +2 profane to attack and damage, and some clicky effect that will benefit all types of builds.

Take a look at the most sought after items in game... The Mysterious Bauble. Benefits nearly everyone, as most people have some amount of SP nowadays. Make it one click of Superior Mnemonic. Or, make it 3 clicks of 10% SP cost reduction lasting 20 seconds each.

Make a Deathward clicky like Visor of the Flesh Render Guards, but make it exclusive, and give it a 15-20 minute duration.

To possibly encourage teamwork.... make a spell point regen clicky like Vile Blasphemy, but only useable on other party members. Sort of like a Divine Vitality clicky.

I do disagree on the idea of an item granting permanent evasion, but I do think it's fun to try out other classes "signature features". A permanent evasion item would be OP, but what about a clicky effect 1/1 day (exclusive) that grants evasion for 45 seconds? Give the item +10 DEX. It'll give people a decent one-shot chance at getting through tough traps, but won't be OP, as the people most likely to use it won't have a super high DEX to begin with.

Rare augment with +3 Luck?

We have several raise dead clickies, but no Resurrection clicky.

Know what else would be nice? A better scaling Stoneskin clicky. Something with 300/adamantine. An item with resist +45 as a 10 minute clicky, one element only.

Take the things that people have ground for in the past, and make them have higher values that scale to epic, or longer lasting effects.

Agreed. We were talking about this during guild runs tonight. As it stands, none of us are interested in running Epic 3BC. I want the self-rez thingy for my Bard (especially if a graphic/animation is included), and possibly the boots for running Peaks, but I'm not going to be spending a great deal of time in there farming them. If I happen to get them on a run, cool. If not, I've got more interesting things to chase after.
