They should probably put these up at the same time they put the update on Lamma. More legendary stuff though, it would seem. Some items aren't bad, but they really have no creativity at all.

Just curious, not trying to start a fight here, but what items would you consider creative? What items do you want? (please don't cheap out and say ddoor clickie)

I personally would love a trinket that's just like 8 or 9 augment slots, you know what I mean? Something like that.

These are for some new quests in U31.  As you can see, the quests will have a heroic range and a legendary range.

The level 13 helm that adds about 100 SP via potency (to all spell types) and 5% magical efficiency with a green slot is a nice item.  Competing items at that level are generally around 60-70 SP.

The legendary cloak that gives really nice Evo DC, Quality Wisdom, and Force spell power is a good divine item. 

The legendary gloves with quality charisma and sonic spell power are very strong for a bard.

The legendary ring is a pretty strong melee ring.  MP and deadly and accuracy and a slot.  hard to beat.

The legendary boots have some serious armor piercing (off slot vs. loot gen, I think) and the seeker and strength.  Not bad. 

The belt that is giving wicked high diversion, dodge, and combat master is nice too.

There are some decent items that I can see fitting on builds.  Some are odd.  But there are some item's I'd like.

I like both versions of this belt:
Belt - Negative Energy Amp +72, Greater Boon of Undeath (Inflict Moderate Wounds), Enhancement Light resistance +68, Quality Int +4, Green Augment Slot

I could be tempted by the sonic gloves, too (for the same character) and that might make me want the necklace with lesser displacement on it. It's been a long time since I've wanted more than one item from an update. So, I think they're doing all right with the design of the gear.

I have the same question.  They aren't introducing any new effects, so all items are just a bunch of combinations of the already existing stats.  At least these look like they are trying to be more focused than the anniversary turn ins, with crap like incite mixed with diplomacy.

I'm still not quite used to the effect ranges on the new random loot, so it's difficult for me to see if these will be good to wear or just competing with random items by virtue of having one or two more effects than the random stuff.

Or even a Paladin who went with scion of the feywild.  Or a fey pact lock.  It's only a shame that the anni party gloves had +6 quality cha and these only have +4.

I think things like Quality displacement / incorp would be cool.

I true cloak of the displacer beast. It tells mobs you are actually 5-10 feat in front of you. They would start beating the air in front of you, engaging them in melee would break it and they would attack your actual location.

FAKE

The armor does not have repair amp listed and the docents don't have healing amp listed.

It would be nice and should be easy to code, but devs have been very reluctant when it comes to messing with displacement/incorporeal.

Spell effects, unique effects, clickies, short-term effects, sets that are actually worthwhile, maybe items that bring back some of the old stuff like % bonuses, items that work differently with different classes, or have an effect that only works with a certain class, buffs to a specific enhancement, buffs that give the effect of an enhancement or feat, or even something completely new.

Anything but another Deadly IX of Accuracy X (Yellow Slot).

It isn't the fucking meaning of life. Pull your shit-smeared head out of your ass and use it for something other than enema deliveries.

Man I want that so bad. Finally slot FF/Deathblock/Blindness/Fear/water breathing/run speed/master's gift, all on one item. God that would make life so much easier.

Pretty strong caster items.  Looking at it from a shiradi caster perspective, the PRR docent and potency helmet look obscenely overpowered.  Not sure the sonic gloves and force cloak are worth a slot over greensteel.

You saying there's something wrong with convenience? Tongue

I'm a standard naysayer but I am kind of looking forward to this stuff. Assuming its all BtA and not BtC it'll be nice to have some more twink items to fill in the gap between 15 and 20. Be nice to see some more stuff for the 20-26 range, but what are ya gonna do?

Also here is hoping they don't fuck with the drop rates like they did last time. 240+ runs and STILL no bracers.

"Necklace - Quality Enchantment DC +1 , Enhancement Spellpoints +162, Blurry 20%, Stealth Strike 15%, Green Augment Slot"

"Necklace - Quality Enchantment DC +2 , Enhancement Spellpoints +371, Lesser Displacement 25%, Stealth Strike 15%, Green Augment Slot"

Will be pretty handy on Terror builds, just a shame it's a necklace as it will screw with DH set.

Regarding the loot, my previous criticisms were around the lack of logic and coherency of the items. 
At least this time, some of the items have a clear use as Asheras pointed out.  It isn't creative, but at least the items are useful to some.  Whomever is designing loot, deserves some credit for that.

Honestly, how much creativity do you really demand from a list of stat bonuses? We haven't seen the names or the quest they drop from yet. Every item can't have it's own unique special effect, there are too many of those already.
