As if I haven't already found enough random loot with 4 completely mismatched effect slots...

Gonna assume that they're hoping the whales think this though just as much as the drooling morons that thought this was an effective sales strategy.

It’s useful for hardcore when you don’t have full think gear I guess.    But RL and Sharon sets are not that hard to farm out. 

On live id not buy them.

I am assuming we eventually get a crafting system for cannith loot pushed to 32/38/40. There will inevitably be odd times where we have not much new loot coming, then combined with the new crafting system we should get, which all ends up to make it where potentially getting an immensely rare 4 perfect rolls slotted item becomes best in slot.

As of now they are useless on live at cap, to me.

imagine a publisher whose business model was to release a single, really long book, one word per version, with a new version released every week. every few weeks, the publisher goes back and changes core components of the story. this goes on for 15 years. then they hire a new storyline editor, who decides that this book is too short, and to extend the longevity of this read, has the text within encrypted on each page with a random cypher. finally, they release an unplanned second book, whos content is JUST the random cyphers required for each page. however due to the nature of the unending changes to all parts of the first book, they now have two books that you must endlessly reacquire and read one word at a time while the text youve already seen morphs into completely different stories each version in both of them.

this is the business model of DDO. and if you dont like reading this way, maybe youre just illiterate.

I did actually manage to find a ring yesterday with 2 complimentary affixes and a third good general affix, AND 2 augment slots, so I guess it's not impossible.

Side question: does +3 UMD on an ML30 item sound right?

Well not at current levels. Maybe once we get to 35 or so, as ssg will not be able to fill in those gearing gaps from 32-40 as extensively. The random cannith loot has to be upgraded first to allow values that we would use past level 32 and then we can get a small window for a 6 or so months where we chase random cannith loot in hopes of landing a perfect item.
