Mysterious remnant turn-in.

Cloak and bracers do the same thing.

Lvl 7: 1000, 15 excep heal amp, 11 insight MRR (even though the description says heal amp....)
Lvl 14: 4000, 30 HA 18 MRR
Lvl 21: 8000, 45 HA 25 MRR

All have a green and colourless slot.

They have fuck all for durability, but a hardness almost twice that of Flawless Shadow Dragonplate.

FFS - cause testing is hard yo.

They have a knack for cocking up even good ideas with sloppy work.
It's like they want their hard work to look like something coded while they sat on the shitter between rounds of candy crush.

does limited time mean its over with april 5, and u may never see them again, or will it come back occasionally with champion hunter weeks?

I assume since cosmetic crap returned with it, bracers and cloaks will come back later as well but turbine....who knows.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

it is insight MRR so it should.

I see one of the PC members was expecting a yellow slot, which has been downgraded to colourless on Live.

I will offer a comment that I really do think they have the cost calibration wrong on this stuff.
At 8000 remnants, that is not really accessible for many players.
That is pretty steep for an "okay" item.

I'm not suggesting that everyone should be able to get one, but I think their pricing is at the extreme end of the range.

Hardcore grinders can probably get the remnants in a few days of play (yes, less for those of you who have no life outside of DDO), but ironically, they're probably the least interested in the items.

They told us these were coming like a month ago, if you wanted them you should have been farming rems already.

Looks like there's a level 28 that's missing that should have 60 HA and 32 MRR, guess Turbine can't figure out how to make something cost more than 10k rems.

Thank you Taco.
That whooshing sound is my point going high over your head.

Allow me to clarify - where did they say that these specific items were coming a month ago?  I did not see that post.
EDIT: Belay that - link provided below (thanks Madman).  No costs were mentioned though.

And this was not a personal whinge post.  Due to some forward planning, I have sufficient remnants to acquire whatever I need for a long time.  I am approaching my comment from the perspective of the general populace who likely don't have 4000-8000 remnants (because they don't play Hard or Elite).

Yes, you could indeed have been farming for a month to get this one item.  Awesome isn't it.
Unless you play alot and choose to farm them, you will likely not have 1,000's of remnants.
As a benchmark, I know some regular (most nights) but casual players (play the difficulty level that suits the group available) that don't have anywhere near 1,000 remnants.
If you play HH 8 hours a day on EE, then you will be fine! 
Of course, you'll be bored out of your fucking brain, but all set for that ML21 item which you will likely never use.

I believe there will be a series of items over time.
But you get this before Apr 5 or you miss out (for now).  Whether they recycle them or not, I don't know.  Actually, given the laziness in their development, pretty sure they will recycle them.

I don't have a soln to the broader argument around remnants.  I was just observing that the cost is fairly high on the scale.
I would suggest the cost is outside "stretch target" range for most players, so they simply won't bother.

Yes, yes he did.
Looks like he did it yesterday.
No acknowledgement or flagging it, just a sneaky edit despite all the previous quotations.  Do you think Cordo will go thru and re-write all the quotes to re-wrote history?

Can anyone confirm the problem with the green slot?
If there is a problem, not going to bother getting anything until they fix it.

Not sneaky. He said right in the post he changed it:

Quote:
Mysterious Cloaks & Mysterious Bracers
These are intentionally identical items. We're choosing to put out a Cloak version and a Bracers version to make it easier to mix into the puzzle that is juggling items between your equipment slots.

• Minimum Level 7: +15 Exceptional bonus to Positive Healing Amplification, +11 Competence bonus to Magical Resistance, Green Augment Slot, Colorless Augment Slot, Masterful Craftsmanship 4
• Minimum Level 14: +30 Exceptional bonus to Positive Healing Amplification, +18 Competence bonus to Magical Resistance, Green Augment Slot, Colorless Augment Slot, Masterful Craftsmanship 4
• Minimum Level 21: +45 Exceptional bonus to Positive Healing Amplification, +25 Competence bonus to Magical Resistance, Green Augment Slot, Colorless Augment Slot, Masterful Craftsmanship 4

+45 healing amp and 25 stacking MRR is extremely solid for a single item slot in my opinion. Very competitive with necropolis gear.

Turbine is starved for material. Everything will return. It might not be desirable when it does.... or it might have extra features. Because why test it to see if something they did in the meantime broke it?
