Now I know that HCS, Biggrim in particular has stated many times that there will never be an epic set. That is not what my suggestion is for, well not really.

 

I was looking at the auction house earlier at some of the items and while I'm happy that some are available for lower levels, it does mean that anyone high enough to wear ALL of the Hunted Cow epics will be hampering themselves with inferior items. (stam/xp gain wise)

 

Would it be possible to create a unique set bonus for these items, that gives no battle stats, only stam/xp gain increases and also does not enable SH/CoA/CoD etc. (although the buff would be virtually useless to use on them anyway)

 

 

Now, failing that as I can already sense the, "We've said multiple times there will never be an epic set!" statement incoming...

 

How about a new enhancement that adds the stam/xp gain but only works at certain intervals?

So each item could give 12% to this new enhancement with bonuses coming in at 24% and every 12% after?

 

I realise this seems like a lot of work for just a little extra stam/xp gain but in my mind these new HCS epics should be, well, you shouldn't have to take a hit in your stam/xp gains to wear them.

I think doing that might further drive the prices of the lower level HC Epics to unreachable points for anyone who is actually reasonably close to the items level.

Sure, but then again if they want one they could hunt one themselves instead of buying. The titan has an increased spawn rate compared to other titans. Letting these epics have prestige and a respectable price tag isn't inherently bad. It's how all epics used to be...

These epics, for the most part, already have a respectable price tag because the crystalline components for them are only dribbling into the game ...

 

Personally, I don't think they need changing, sorry Doom

 

Like everything else in the game, there are choices and there are consequences .. You wanna suck up to the cows ( ) by wearing a full set of their new epics, then sure, go for it, but at the cost of a reduced stam / xp gain

Seems like people don't get the concept of 'Epic' any more.

I'm not interested in pushing it though, was simply something that came to me when I was looking around.

That's a good valid point

Hi there.

 

Sorry, this still goes under the Epic set, which as we all know, we've said no too. Sorry. Not going to do this.
