  • Shadowscream Trivial Lowered?

    Last night on Eci a Enchanter by the name of Falcoor made a bunch of shadowscream boots then told our public raid channel that he had gotten the cannot advance message for these with a skill of 176. He said he did /feedback on this but I was hoping that others could confirm this or was it just a bug or something.

    I just got my skill up to 222 with SS boots, your friend may have seen the message from creating the Humming orb. I did my combine on Wed night for the skill up.

      This sounds fishy to me. SS boots don't trivial to 248, so I highly doubt that someone at skill levels 176 and under would be making "lots" of these to begin with. Perhaps he was making Royal Velium Boots that which trivial at 176, and he mispoke? Or perhaps he was making the Humming Orbs for Shadowscream armor (trivial 168).

      I just can't understand why someone would choose to make a run of SS boots when their skill is *so far under the posted trivial.

        I missed the obligatory message here that the SS has had trivials lowered after the patch. Haven't had one of them for a few patches now.

        Your friend is probably reporting the humming orb trivials.

          I agree it's more likely he or she is looking at the humming orb trivs and not the boot trivials.

          And I agree ... why on earth someone wouldn't do themselves the favor of fully trivialling fine plate before moving to SS is beyond me. People say it's cheaper but the farming involved makes it SO not worth it. Besides, the sellback on FP is not that bad.

            Don't know about boots, but I was making bracers last night at 192 skill and not getting trivial messages on success, (not that I got a skillup or anything, bah) so I really doubt the trivials have changed enough for boots to be trivial that low.

              I did 32 combines on SS boots yesterday and not a single trivial message. Not one. Skill is 222.

              Please next time you try making the boots, bracers what have you do this. Combine all the items for orbs first, do something else that will appear in the same window as your skill (Emote or something) then attempt the SS item. You will see that the trivial messages are coming from the Orbs not the SS armor, I promiss (unless they patch this later) that SS armor WILL take you to the 240's.

              Thanks

                I did 3 stacks of SS collars yesterday (3 skill ups i believe) with 204ish skill to start. DEFINITELY has not been nerfed.

                  I hit (250) on SS Gloves just a couple nights ago so this is still the path to 250. Now I have to decide whether to even keep the hammer & anvil or just destroy them,

                    First of all, congratulations!

                    Secondly, I'd definitely keep them if you have any room at all. If by some odd chance they ever come up with a continuation quest... or if you get a sudden urge to make DS "potions" (it could happen!) do you really want to redo the whole beginning portion?

                      I already gave away all my left over acrylia supplies including my Combine Smithing Hammer, but I guess I will save thses 2 because of the hassels involved with replacing them. Being a SK with the coldain ring I already have 2 DS's. Tonight I'll blow an Orb just to test the stacking out.
