Range Slot added to Ceramic Skull of Decay

[Zephaus]

Logged in this morning and found Ceramic Skull of Decay is now Ranged Slot.

:) Guess someone out there is reading our posts. Thanks!!

Its also rec. level 46 now - same goes for ceramic hammer of innovation.

Yes, apparently that restriction was on there before (some of my customers had problems equipping it). I guess they decided to finally clue us in on it :)

So should I double my price on these, or triple it? Might as well start early before the skyrocketing price of foul smelling liquid forces me. :P

[Zephaus]

I doubled mine to 4k.

This is SO COOL!

I paid 3k+ingredients for my skull just before the patch (I knew affliction haste was going to be fixed, didn't know it was going to be range-useable). As a held item it was little more than a toy, but now it's a seriously desireable item for enchanters.

There are a few other affliction efficiency IV items in PoP, including one other range item that's tradeable. But the skull is the only affliction haste IV item known so far (Diku's list at http://www.bjornstar.com/focusitems.html is pretty good). I'd say you could easily get 4-6k for the skull from knowledgable players now.

affliction haste is nice, but not that nice....

I guess you're not an enchanter :).

[DarkSidhe]

Affliction haste is nice for shammies, necros and druids as well. Ragnars and SKs could make some use of it, but I think they have different priorities. :)

This is a shaman/enchanter item.

Two scenarios at this point: You have an affliction haste IV item, or you don't. Two seconds cast vs three seconds cast. Which cast time would YOU pick?
