A little disappointed with the changes to Trinket of Trollform. With so many classes on the new UR sword new Druid's are definitely being left behind a bit. Hopefully we can get a UR level trinket soon. The only thing between this token and the Legendary is the Shaman's Greater Necklace. Starting Druid's need something more.

With the Heal on Trollform and Iktomi allowing reuse any number of times is there anything that prevents Legendary druids from shape shifting into and out of Trollform to heal 2hp each time indefinitely?

It could be changed to regain 2 hp / room. It would be a little stronger for newer Druids without the legendary and would close any loopholes. It would also be more troll like.

This is assuming a Druid can stay in the form between multiple rooms and it doesn't automatically end after the first room.

Thank you for tuning down damage on Trinket of Trollform; average damage is now 8, which is a bit higher than the other weapons (+1 Heavy Axe: 6.5; +1 Sword of Seth: 5.375), but has no to-hit bonus.

(Personally I feel that's still a bit high, but that can -- wait no; let's save the discussion on Polymorph for when Polymorph is being discussed)

Hopefully, we'll get a new UR next year once Polymorph changes have stabilised (or an existing -- er, that discussion later).

Thanks, Jeff!

I like that Trollform has an ability beyond just the damage wheel now. One question though, it sounds like you heal two points when you polymorph into the Trollform. Ordinarily that would be fine, but does that turn into an infinite healing loop with Iktomi? Also, could that cause problems with non-Iktomi Druids if they have a pile of these and polymorph into them one after the other in a room?

Maybe it could say something like "heal 2 points 1/room" or "heal 2 points when exiting room"?

Thanks,
Mike

The Earcuff of Aset seems quite goof for a rare to me.

I don't mind the players who are likely to equip this getting ~+2-6 HP over the game from it, but that's a lot compared to Earcuff of Vitality.

+1 Mystic Staff of the Serpent's damage wheel is in line with prior rare Mystic Staffs, but I wonder if it's too high.

A 6.5 average damage on a ranged weapon usable by these classes is a lot for a rare (it's more than the +1 Oaisis Longbow which is more class restricted).

I don't see this as game breaking, and there is a downside of having to balance mental stats for to-hit instead of DEX which also gives AC.

Charm of Gifted Vigor is fine; however if it were a bead it would seem to align more with the other stat beads, and the volunteer tokens which combine all these effects in a bead.

I like the buff to Ammunition this year.

Scarab Shield is really good (it's -1 AC from the UR Lucky Shield).

That's fine, however I think it would also be fine if it were restricted down to Barbarian, Cleric, Fighters and Paladin (and possibly leave off Barbarian).

Also, maybe this should have wording that you can't equip any different shields, to prevent someone from equipping this in their Ranged Offhand, and the Lucky Shield in their Melee Offhand for +2 to saves.

I spot checked things like: transmute categories, class restrictions, hand icons and they look good to me.
