    Default Trailblazer passive past life is lame

    Compare to:

    Scoundrel has +1 reflex save.
    Rogue has +2 saves vs traps and +1 sneak attack damage.

    Both of those are relevant and desired.

    Trailblazer +1 saves vs traps might as well not exist. SSG, you can do better.

    It should AT LEAST be +2 to trap saves for Iconics to have past lives of comparable power.

    The saves vs traps isn't enough by itself since it's way too niche.

    Spell saves instead of traps? Desirable.
    +1 seeker? (Parity with Rogue +1 SA.) Desirable.

    +3 saves vs traps (total) is something I'd expect to see from a favor reward, not triple iconic passive past lives.

    Well, it had to fit with the meh race itself...

    But yes, +1 vs traps is silly bad.

    Exactly. I'll be changing my business cards to 'UBER Completionist, ABT' (All But Trailblazer).

    All the OCD people (like me) with uber completionist, are still going to run it 3x no matter what is said here.

    It really should have been "Nine Lives" a self Raise Dead/Resurrection/True Resurrection clickie that suppresses your iconic stance while it's on cooldown.
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.
