Combine legs/bp clicky is wonderful, but I was just wondering if there is any chance a quest could be added that required handing in both the finished robe and legs and possibly something else to receive an item that does both buffs but takes up only 1 slot. Even if it took longer to cast or something, it would be nice to free up an additional buff slot. Perhaps the item could be an ammo slot usable clicky.

Now, some may argue "hey, you have to choose what buffs you want to keep, its part of game balance"

My counter argument is that by sacrificing the two pieces of gear, you are giving up 2 pieces of gear that can be augmented to be used as resist gear. So you end up trading away resist gear, for the ability to free up a buff slot.

this is a good idea.

You take a loss on the gear but get the clicky in one buff.. would be players choice options are always good

I cannot imagine anyone going through the effort just to get a crappy piece of gear to turn into resist gear. If one is at this stage of the game, there are much better choices for resist gear.
 
A+ I loled
Exactly like it was said it's like the uber shamans asking for Swarm Mastery to be auggified through a quest (except as stupid as it sounds at least in that case you can't redo the quest)
 
Yeah, except they have better than that. If you want to compare it it'd be more like asking to get all the stats from the buffs to be turned into innate bonuses you have all the time.

I really don't think it is that unreasonable to request and extension to this quest to combine them into one buff. Is it necessary? No. Would it be great? Yes.
 
I like how people laugh about the loss of the gear as resist peaces, since I know quite a few people who STILL use the legs aug'd for resist on eyes of the father... at least gono and jenks did

And no, its not the same as having it be innate, you still have to cast it, still can be dispelled, and still takes a buff slot. I'm just saying an extension of the quest to combine them into a 1 slot buff instead of 2 would be a very nice addition, because with all of the potions and extra shit and new clickies that are bound to come out, it would help a great deal.

for example, a new piece could drop rarely- possibly a container of sorts. You could combine the robe and legs in the container to get something like "Dull orb of the combine" with no stats. Then you could collect 3 gem drops, that could be added to sanctum trash, similar to the way the normal prison gems are set up based on classes. You could then turn in 3 gems from sanctum along with the dull orb, in to the vaporous projection to receive a "Glimmering orb of the combine" with has like a 30 sec cast time buff that combines the two. The gem could be ammo slot and must equip to cast.

I agree that it would be really nice to have the buffs combined into a single clicky and slot. I do not really like the thought of another "Crap Collection" quest to make it happen though, nor do I think it should really have anything to do with Sanctum....though lore wise I could see why it would.

Buff slots are an issue way before Sanctum and if a player is in a position where they are willing/able to nuke the BP and Legs in order to just get the buffs from them then that sounds like enough.

Anyway, great idea overall.
