TOPIC: 2019 Reprinted Token Suggestions

I expect number of reprints to be low.

Charm of Enlightenment is the most important effect. But, there should be more tokens that allow Divine Sight.

Briano's or the like.

Charm of Brooching

Mad Evoker's Charm

All three of these are hard to find, expensive to acquire and extremely useful in game. Three very good reasons to reprint.

I personally hope they keep the number of reprints down each year regardless. With the exception of tokens that are functionally the same but are not special.

Say max each year
3 UR a year
4 rares a year

On common and uncommon I could care less

Agreed! +1

I think this is a good year to reprint either all three of

+2 viper strike fang
Viper strike shirt
Viper strike belt

Or to reprint the +2 fang and plan to print the belt and shirt over the next few years.

The reason would be with the addition of a new viper strike pants last year, that will still be in print, this will allowe new players access to what is probably the best all around melee gear.

Also, by reprinting the viper strike fangs we can hopefully forestall power creep that would eventually overtake them.

I’d also be interested if the pants, shirt, and belt could have a relic level transmute a-la charm of awakened synergy - otherwise I don’t see much call for the pants goin forward.

Questors charm if luck is a unique effect that is long in the tooth.

Also, if we continue to have 1 save die per party maybe it could have a slightly different retool effect - and make a new one that says: “rolled 1s count as automatic successes” or something .

So if the viper set cam back through, would you open the relics up again as that's new territory.

It has already been printed and thus the cats already out of the bag one could say.

With the addition of epic this year I see this reprint as a token that starts people on the path of trying hard difficulties and thus getting deeper into the game in many aspects.

Plus, you could argue that if a token is overpowered, it actually balances the game by reprinting it and getting it into the hands of more people. It makes the overall player base more balanced. For instance, if Mad Evoker's Charm were reprinted, Nightmare and Epic could be designed assuming most magic users at that level are using it.

Nice analysis - this makes sense to me.

I already +1 ed Charm of Broocking but wanted to elucidate why.

I think this may be the single most important token - especially at UR for survivability on higher difficulty levels.

It also scales like a dream - it’s as good in a red build that adds a Cloak of Shadows to its +2 Cloak of resistance as it is in a legendary build where it allows you to pick your favorite two of:

Pharacus’ +6 saves
Greater +4 saves
Cloak of Shadowskin

If we can’t have a striaght reprint I’d suggest putting in a similar effect in another token.

I’d also like to see a nice back slot UR this year - it’s been a while - this would make a nice 1-2 punch if we get that.

I think the Viper pants where created so that those already with the Viper Strike set could have some alternative build options, not to open the hornets nest of reprinting viper sets.

There's no Cloak of Focus, yet. So, if looking for a nice cloak, that's it. Now, given how competitive back can be at higher levels (and not so competitive at lower levels), not sure it adds much to the game other than making offense and healing that much better. Maybe I should suggest lower rarity back slots since I pretty much only use +2 at lower rarities and don't even bother with blue cloaks (sadly).

My vote would be to print the remainder of the set and not the viper strike fang. That way you can still benefit from the viper strike set, but not open the can of worms on reprint able legendaries.
