Upcoming Winter Event - Help design the equipment reward drops

[Dan]

Help me design the upcoming winter reward equipment drops.

As stated before, most event item EQUIPMENT drops will spawn as Brittle. This has been true for the last few events and will continue.

Why:

• Allows me to introduce more powerful items that won't necessarily always be available, so power creep could be temporary
• Allows me to re-introduce past items since these will decay over time and need replacement.

So with that in mind, what pieces of equipment should we have during the next event, and what could some of their properties be? Past event items can also be recommended for reintroduction.

If it is a past event item lets try to look back a minimum of 2 years from when it first dropped.

I have some item suggestions, which are from events that took place on OSI.

What point in weeping edge? It breaking purpose bokuto are used for?
And its not hard to drop 30splint bokuto with no other mods

This is just a suggestion of items, to be stupid, and the purpose of this item is that it can have imbuing.

Since this thread is for suggestions, I wanted to share a list of valuable items that have dropped over the years.
Most of these are from events held at least two years ago, as requested. I've also included a few recent items that are too good not to mention due to their unique value and impact on gameplay.
Because many of these are so hard to find now, it creates a tough situation for active or returning players. It almost feels like a penalty for having missed the original events, leaving players a step behind.

Older Drops:
Shroud of the Shadowlord (2019)
Void Bone Armor (2021)
Void Touched Trinket (2021)
Gloves of the Lich King (2022)
Robe of the Lich King (2022)
Juka Slaying Trinket (2022)
Ilshenar Adventurer's Quiver (2022)

From most Recent Events:
Belt from the Daemon Invasion of Nujel’m (2023)
Lord Valentine's Sash (2023)
Swords of Prosperity – Luck 450 (2024)
All Shade Shrouds (2024)

The Void Bone Armor (Taishō's Platemail Do), Gloves of the Lich King (Seiryu Kote), and Robe of the Lich King (Gensui's Kamishimo) were just recently reintroduced during the Tokuno summer event of 2024.

I am looking for items that are a few years older (2 minimum), as per the original post. We will certainly see most of these items again at some point, just not during the rest of the 2025 event season.

I will look at the Shroud of the Shadowlord, Void Touched Trinket, Juka Slaying Trinket, Belt from the Daemon Invasion of Nujel'm, and Ilshenar Adventurer's Quiver. Was the quiver ever reintroduced? (asking everyone) The Heritage event items folder is quite large at this point, and I can't remember. It would be a great contender to see reintroduction if not.

Quiver was only during ilsh paragon event and never re introduced

 

[Bob]

what pieces of equipment should we have during the next event, and what could some of their properties be?

gloves are always interesting, sdi and all the normal mage mods
earrings, sdi and all the normal mage mods
tunic, sdi and all the normal mage mods
gorget, sdi and all the normal mage mods
boots, sdi and all the normal mage mods
sword belt , sdi and all the normal mage mods
spellbook demon slayer, with sdi

adding + skills points to items always interesting too,

 

[FireFly]

How about custom weapons?
Would be cool to have something not directly overcaped mods but like
Double axe/black staff or war hammers/kama(to fit all 3 weapon skills and those all have whirlwind special) gargish whirlwind weapon as well
Or 1handed weapons like katana/kryss/hammer or war axe

Lets say those all could have basicly mods like
WW weapons :
Area damage 50
Hit mana leech 80
Hit life leech 80
Hit stamina 50
And almost non existed mod (great for pvm) BANE

1hands just replace area with hit spell and add BANE

Just dont make them brittle bcs weapons last not long specially when players know how usefull damage wise BANE could be

As a player who's just come back to the game now, I feel like there's no way for me to catch up with the other players when it comes to these good items that no longer drop. It's really frustrating not having access to any of the items that would, at the very least, allow me to get somewhat close to the veteran players.

I'm not asking to bring those items back, but to consider other options that would let us get at least somewhat close to the old items.

Meanwhile recent drops cc and tangle with 1extra regen added to base
