Man, I probably won't be the first, but I do see some farming in my future.

@ Ah Pook

Yeah I got about 400 doing it, but I live in explorer zones so I got a lot of xp without the chance at them.

I have trouble believing it's duper-bait since nobody has yet to come up with a viable duping-method.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

I've been following the forums here pretty carefully. No one's posted one or admitted to having one.

Granted, that'd be wise, but still. I don't think there is one.

When you say the forums it sounds like you have access to all of them, which I know as a fact that you don't, IMO just send a PM to Strake.

Hmmm, 10,000 mysterious fragments, or a handful of runs of low-mid-level dungeons for clickies with the same effect.

Especially since I make greensteel for all of my characters, anyway, which covers stoneskin and displacement; the deathward clicky from tangleroot is quick and easy to get (and how often do you need it more than 1/rest? Beholders, but it's a complete waste against them); haste is laughable these days; FoM is OK, I guess, but I think maybe 2 out of my 9 high level characters does not have either an item or the spell, and you don't need it very often at all.

So, these items are for casual players.... who will never, ever get 10,000 mysterious fragments!

Is Turbine a charity employer for the mentally deranged or something?

Is that anything like PMing Epoch?

I jest, of course. I know there's no 'secret' forum and that I wouldn't be allowed in even if there was Tongue

See, here's the interesting part...

Additionally, we did run some data showing general acquisition of Mysterious Remnants and there are folks who will likely be getting some of this new stuff if they want.


What's "run some data" mean?

So...the new stuff is a list of things nearly everyone already has...plus a hat.

Well...that's cool.

Maybe they'll add Tornado Pots and Raid Timers next.

Its a tiny, tiny thing, but these are flask-clickies, which makes them ever-so-slightly more useful than clickies you have to wear.

Personally I don't like clickies that displace things like my HP item. Taking 45 damage for a haste is kinda annoying.

But at 10,000 that's just kind of ludicrous. Given the drop rate its considerably worse than the flask of endless grog some of us "Ground" Cove for.

Why not just sell the flasks directly? I'd buy. In fact, if they sold those flasks for a TP cost in the store I'd probably grab a few of them at some point, whereas if they just sold the fragments I'd never once drop a penny on them.

flasks are ML1, iirc. but you can use only one at a time as they all share a 10minute cooldown, which ends up making them kinda useless. shrines make it worse, as they dont reset.
GS clickies (on a different slot than your HP GS), DW clickies. fom flask is the only one i would make if i didnt have/couldnt fit the fom boots or cast it otherwise.

crown of fire and some cooldown sharing flasks, what +1 skill tomes didn't want any of that? sick of getting new time wasting, bag filling trash. how about something useful like revamping the old epic item system, or updating cannith crafting to do deadly and mutations like debilitating? too much to ask for I guess.

Didn't know the flasked shared a cooldown. Yeah that officially makes 'em useless. ML1 is kinda nice, but useless with a 10-minute cooldown when it means you can't use your heal flask.

Strictly speaking, buying a hat in the store costs less than grinding for this Crown of Announcing You're Fuckwitted Enough to Grind Champion Poo.

You would be paying yourself in actual champion turds/hour.

See the problem here is no matter how much time I spend on the vault I still can't tell when I'm being fucked with or not. I'm just too trusting I guess Tongue
