U53 Quest Loot

[Zavina]

* Level 7 with sentience (needs to be fixed)

[Lencrennis]

Pretty clearly not done. Smart money's on these getting seasons added to them, else the artifacts come up very short.

Ooh the Deception cloak is a nice Tetris piece, especially since Vinelash bracers dont slot well with other melee gear for a lot of builds

+24 Psionic spellpower augment for hybrid caster builds is pretty nice too. Or even just for better self-heals on any solo build, thats probably ~+10-20% spellpower for a non-caster that might just slot a Devotion ruby or something to use with Renewal. Should be a must-slot for leveling 29-30 and soloing at cap (ML28 is kind of an odd spot for quest augs since there's not much ML28 quest gear to slot it in)...obviously it loses its utility in raids and high reaper which requires you to avoid getting hit that often

[Mindos]

Do the cloaks look nice?

[Seph1roth5]

Cloak is such a ripoff. Using 3 slots to cover all diversions when practically no one needs more than one is just ****.

Also, +2 seems weak for a ml7 item, when ravenloft stuff is +5 at ml10. Fey weapons are the same at ml5, does that mean it's +3 at ml8, +4 at ml9?

[Dreppo]

The greenstone weapons are extremely disappointing, 3 damage enhancing effects that are best worn on gear.

[JOTMON]

Boring loots.
Nothing struck me as interesting or unique in any of that quest gear.
Unicorn Tear/Drop of Tea are worthless at level 28. make them level 8 not 28.. at 28 these should be 10x what they are to be worth slotting.
cant even find the enthusiasm to respond to specific items... its all just... yawn....

Only interesting thing from U53 is the pony.

Maybe next update will bring something worth looking at.

[Assassination]

Theme of not very useful loot continued for 2022. The generic diversion piece is particularly useless, nice.

[Alphabox]

A lot of caster equipment?

[Iriale]

Cobalt pocketwath would be very interesting if it didn't have speed as an enchantment. That's not a useful caster enchantment, and this is a caster artifact. Please add something more interesting.

So many items have speed already, and furthermore can be added via level 20 augment. Please put something more exciting on this and any future speed items. I do think it is here for flavor (pocketwatch), but if that’s the case make it 5th effect.

[Dreppo]

Hedge Trimmer:
From the name and the Plant Bane, this seems aimed at fighting plants. The Bleeding effect therefore seems out of place, as plants would be immune to it. Please change Bleeding to something else that wouldn't be useless against plants.

Aral'Aul'Nevae's Hide:
I have a suggestion for Subtle Target, could you change it to proc on any use of Diplomacy OR Bluff? Bluff would tie in nicely with an assassin using Shiv or a druid wolf using various bluff attacks, so this cloak could appeal to a few more builds. I know there's an existing item with Subtle Target (Negiotiator's Spectacles), that item would be fine with this change too.
Also, like others have suggested, could you combine the various Diversions into one Universal Diversion, making room for an additional effect? The three separate effects are just too bulky and make the item pretty weak. Edit: There is already a universal diversion affix in the game I believe, Occultation.

[Paladin_of_Power]

How about an Augment to add to WARLOCK dice?
