TOPIC: 2027 Ultra Rare FINAL

A BIG thanks to the TD Forumites for their ample help with crafting a nice set of Ultra Rares for 2027. I think the only thing that was changed text-wise was adding "Monk: FoB" to the +2 Cosmic Hammer. I did make a lot of visual tweaks which took a bit of time -- but it was well worth it.

I like it.

I am glad the the set came out so good overall. I see 8 tokens I likely will PYP on this set and I’ll probably end up getting 18 PYPs when it is all said and done. I will end up getting 10 of the charm of coordination when it is all said and done since it stayed to hit instead of changing to bonus damage.

This is definitely the best set in years.

Still think the Ioun Stone Amethyst Sphere is an over complicated token that is probably more trouble than it is worth to print. Complicated combats both in person and in VTD for very little reward, if it triggers. Even as a Fighter Main, I can't see a reason to use it.

I'm also a fan of changing the belt as part of the multi-year UR transmute, and moving it into the Eye slot with Lenses of Time Step or the Gloves Slot with Gloves of Eldrich Horror, as those slots could probably use more love, as they have been stagnant for many builds, and a glove/eye multi-year token I feel would be more interesting.

As a Paladin main, I'm hoping I'll be able to "pay people off" with healing potions ahead of time to avoid them running this token, lol. I just really don't want people aiming for my puck every combat for +3HP.

I’m with you on that last part. But at least for me if I pull one randomly I know what token to sacrifice to the mulch god for my Charm of Unity

Well - on the other hand - if you miss wouldn't it be cool if someone bumped you onto a hit while healing themselves?

Still not convinced on the Ioun Stone. I'd replace it with something else, but offhand not sure what would work instead.

Jeff, nice job on the set. There are a handful of very good to must-have options for experienced (geared-up) players and more excellent options for the mass player base.

The only token I actively dislike and (as a player who mains Cleric and Fighter) actively dislike is the Ioun Stone and would dump it and workshop a cool FoP instead that gives a 1/game immunity to XYZ conditions (including Dream, Sleep, Charm, and Possession).

Thanks again.
