SPOILER New Boss Altar Fabled Items?

In 1.19, we received both fabled items and major IDs. I mostly want to focus on four: the plague staff/uranium aegis and deadeye/night hawk. Two of these constitute the only fabled weapons currently in the game and are mid level, while both of the armour pieces are endgame viable (uranium not right now due to an ID bug).


Now, let’s consider the new 1.20 major IDs, rally and cherry bombs specifically. I feel that in the trend towards class parity, assassin, warrior and shaman will soon get their own mid-game, most likely boss altar drop, fabled weapons. At present my theory is that the rally spear will be a drop from the skiens altar in dernel jungle and the cherry bombs dagger will be from the Tera-4M altar in corkus.


But wait, what about the armour parallels? I expect that as well as having the mid game weapons, there will also be endgame armour with these IDs (so yes you can probably still abuse idol and grimtrap to your hearts content).


As for a shaman fabled item... I dunno. The other two new major IDs don’t lend themselves to a single class (but then again, neither does plague). We may yet see freerunner or explosive impact treated in the same manner for a shaman weapon.

Let me know what you think!

 

Exploding on hit would be pretty useful for shaman in particular due to the sheer size of their hits, but I do think shaman will eventually get a major id that's exclusive to it. I'm hoping more items get major ids as time goes on; it feels like they could really change up he gameplay if they were on more items, rather than just being a gimmick that hardly matters except for hawkeye.

 

Hopefully we don't get more fabled weapons.

 

I mean, imo, there's currently only a small amount of fableds, it would be nice if there were more. Feel like if there are many fableds that would be cooler, and they should make the fabled ID cost lower and probably buff them by adding more signifact major IDs and special IDs only for fableds and stuff.

 

I'm honestly not too bothered about the weapons. They do need a slight nerf butt otherwise, they're only mid level and not endgame colossuses.

 

I hope cherry bombs isn't in a weapon. It's such a good concept for smoke bomb, a spell that's pretty much an accessory to better avenues of damage. Maybe it'll get the nighthawk treatment where it's in both a weapon and armor, but otherwise cherry bombs will just be another quirky ID on a weapon and be forgotten.

 

I definitely hope Cherry Bombs is only on a weapon. It allows it to be balanced much more precisely.

Re:Fabled weapons, if we are to get more, they should certainly be midgame imo.

 

i hope rally would be in an armour piece or accessories or i will cry because warrior SUCK ASS

 

I hope they add in a bunch of fun broken items with really wild quirks. Rally makes warrior so much more interesting so I hope it's on one of everything, cherrybomb looks interesting, add it to everything too. Really no point in trying to keep balance at this point when there's basically none to begin with. I also want to see that exploding ID on a ring or a bracelet, I'm sure it would make the meta real interesting.

I also think there should be way more fabled items in general, adding them to boss alters would be a great way to add powerful and quirky items for every level range. Would be cool if dungeons could have the same treatment too to freshen up their loot. I also wish they would convert items like the master hive items to fabled since it just makes more sense but that might just be me.
