Brad Mortensen wrote: There are currently something like 30 slots to fill, not counting those from extenders, and slotless tokens (like pouches, Scroll Tubes, Teeth, segments, etc). A fully equipped character can be wearing upwards of 50 (or more) tokens.

Even if shins remain TPO, that’s just one out of thirty, or fifty.

Note Teeth, Orbs, and Segments aren’t even in treasure boxes. At least, not in meaningful quantities. They aren’t in random packs, either, unless you count buying $8k at a time as being “in packs.”

Let’s say you do. For precedent, the Alchemist Pouch in 2007 was “Dungeon-only.” Greaves aren’t the first token unavailable by buying tokens.

If they don't even have it listed... well.. that's a bad sign. I have never had an issue with TD Tavern or MasterEd's prices but when neither of them has them listed... time to wait awhile. Likely a long while.

Thank you for your patronage Hershel. That I didn't have the token listed is my fault - real life has gotten in the way of my addiction (TD). I am glad you got one on the secondary market and I think many casual players will have to as well. In all cases, feel free to PM or stop by at a con and I am sure we can come up with a reasonable trade. I will have my entire stock at GHC and Origins.

PS - that TD Tavern guy is good too! ;-)

True, but there were other boots to choose from. You needn’t go barefoot if you didn’t find a BoW.

The Pouch and Greaves didn’t/don’t have any non-TPO alternatives, which I think was one of the main complaints. Not that non-pack tokens exist, but only that they are the only choice for their slot. But I may be misinterpreting the concern.

Great Avatar. I love that you went the extra mile to change the text and not just the title. :)
