I am going to be very honest and upfront from the get go. This post started out to be very self-centered, and then turned into a possible good idea. Even still, if any of these ideas do get implemented it would benefit me and that would be cool. Sorry I'm selfish...
I originally wanted to post about Gloves of Aerial Vibrations to see if they could be changed from a type 5 aug slot to a type 2.
I had some "great" reasons for the change:
- Aug Type 2 vs 5 on gloves really make zero difference since a nameless monk got Refuge Augs (that are type 5 only) nerfed and no longer have the ability to be placed into Hands and Feet slots. (well to be 100% correct they still can be placed into these items but in return you can no longer equip them). In short gloves having a T2 aug or T5 aug is moot.
- The icon used by these gloves (518) looks more armor like (metal) then fabric (cloth). 12 of the 19 gloves that have aug slots use the Type 2 aug slot so at least the majority of developers from past and present also feel the same way.
- The items lore is "Glove that makes you hear vibrations in the air! Like... sound! Uh... yeah.." and we all know it's more easy to produce sounds from from a metal material (Blacksmiting) then cloth (Tailoring).
Ok.. perhaps my reasons were terrible...
The main thing I wanted was to once again have the ability to use my Quest Augmentation Gemstone of the Scale.
I cut the heads off many a giant; dragging them behind me one by one, because they are so large, by their long frozen dreads. The repeated journeys to my winged friends were long and harsh but I had to gain the respect to be bestowed with the task to once and for all (for 5 days) end the great war between the Dragons and Giants. The task: to make waste of the mighty Frost King, Rymaz Sunbane. I did not let Empress Penerlia faith in me wary, I returned to her with the head of the once great king and in return she granted me the greatest gift, a remarkable Gemstone with 40 hp and mana....
And now I cant even use the thing. Of the 18 items I have equipped (that have the ability to be augmented) only one of them is a T2 and it is filled with an augment that would poof if I were to remove it.
Basically here is the problem:
Druids, Monks, Beastlords, Necromancers, Wizards, Magicians and Enchanters get a T5 quest aug
and...
Warriors, Clerics, Paladins, Shadowknights, Bards, Rogues, Shamans get a T2 quest aug slot
Both augs other then that are 100% the same. This just seems silly. I am not sure what the original idea for this was, but I can only guess this was not meant to be some in game Metagaming min/max scheme.

both for the Gemstone of the Scale and Gemstone of the Storm. Any class should have the ability to turn in one type and get the other type so they can still only have one but also have the ability to equip the aug in any gear they choose. This would not only help me but other people. I simply can not be the only one that finds himself banking this quest aug due to my gear no longer having the correct slot type to put it in.
Sorry this post is so long and terrible. I have been banned for a long time and I am a bit rusty on making posts. Not that I was ever good at it....
