Artimus
Artimus
He was considerably upgraded, yet the eq unchanged...was that supposed to happen? Found it odd that that was priority over the downgrading of rogues and those damned DS solo'g khanjari's *halo*

Rogues can't solo DS effectively, most other classes can. Rogues are fun. Arti certainly needed something in order to substantiate the future when they are going to fix ring of raw energy which was downgraded from 50HP to 0.... :P :P :P... damn ansi schemes hating areas! :P

While not on topic, I'll address the thoughts on the raw energy ring here.
I wasn't the one that changed the stats on the ring, but I can see why they might have been changed.
Being a ring of raw energy, mana/psp seems to fit it better then hps.
However, if enough people would like it changed, I could do something like 40mana 30hps or something around there. I don't want to drop all the mana, nor do I want to drop it below useful levels. I also can't make it 50/50. If it were changed, it would also have to loose its 9power stat as well (I know, like anyone would miss it).

+stat gear doesn't really belong on any high level items because it's basically a worthless stat. This is why items need to have more than 2 modifiers.
It will be fixed in Toril 2.0.

Even when you only talk about the 2 classes that mosly use mana, none of them would use raw energy rings. The absolute only time I could imaging using a mana ring like that instead of hitpoints is to plevel a small squid. When they were changed from 40 hp, to 50 in first round of changes, then 50hp to 50 mana in second, we figured it was someone doing just that, since changing the innate nature of an item doesn't have much to do with it's balance. There were and certainly are some great hitpoint rings that are much easier to get. If it was 50/50 a mana class would probably wear it over an ele ring, the mage classes would not. But over a signet / avernus / flower? Raw energy rings were hard to get just for the rare factor, I worked for AGES to get a pair just to fit a nice ansi scheme, they were still no where near as good as other rings at 40hp, or then upgraded to 50 hitpoints. I can't say I've tried new artimus yet, but if he is harder then I guess the rings need a look in even more than ever. I might wear them again if they had some hitpoints because I think they look nice (i'm in the minority here), but I now have a pair of 65HP 13str rings that I soloed much easier (and are also blue).
