TOPIC: 2024 Transmute Recipes

Appears to be 2017 for star edge if my sampling is representative.

I'd be all for 2017 being the cutoff over 2018, but I believe the ship has sailed and not that many people care about the one year difference.

Didn't Jeff say somewhere that the intention was that these Omni tokens should cost more to transmute than the item they replace?
There are a few old URs that are super cheap. Sadly, I expect those are the exact URs some people were wanting a recipe to take 'any UR' for them to use. Maybe next time.

I don't think that there are too many old URs that are much cheaper than tokens like the +2 Staff of Power right now. Maybe they were aiming to do it from when they started using the star edge and just missed it by a year. It is a shame it doesn't include 2017 as Trenttokens currently has four different ones under $40 each.

The recipe for the OMNI CUBE is okay considering what it represents.
The recipe for the OMNI ORB is interesting. The decision for it to have a secondary market value of 3x that of a current PYP in Trade/Reserve materials (based on the lowest prices on Trents website) is curious. Especially considering the recipe cost for each Safehold level we've seen released so far.

I'm curious who would waste their time making the Omni Orb when they could put that $300 value towards buying the Legendary outright.

As for the Safehold program, I think it's a really cool idea that would boost player interest... in theory.
In practice, I'm not so sure. But at least I know by the recipe cost of the Safehold III that I am already priced out of the Mythic tiers. This is helpful info so I know I should stay in my lane and focus on stuff I can afford.
