What is up with the Greater Belt of Lathander

All of the Greater belts/cloaks have the same stats (just bigger numbers) as their "normal" counterparts, except for this one. I have a regular belt of Lathander and it gives CON/DEX as its bonuses, but the Greater version has WIS/???. I don't know what the second stat is because even the Neverwinter Wiki entry says the Greater is also DEX/CON. I'm not about to dump RP into it just to see what its second stat would be. What gives? Can I assume this is a bug? Or is there some weird reason to change this one item? Unless this is addressed, I'm not going to bother with getting a Greater Belt since CON/DEX is perfect for my build.

    The Greater Lathander belt stats are WIS/CHA. You can find this by going to the Collections page.

    I'm in the same boat. As an HR, the normal one is much better suited for me than the Greater one. I'm going to have to stick with what I have, since having the cloak and artifact give me the set bonus.

    It's not only the Greater Belt of Lathander, but the Seldarine Belt, too. They have switched their attribute bonus.

    It may be a bug. It may also be a sudden idea, that Lathander Set should be more suited for Paladins.

    No one knows. Except the devs. Perhaps. Perhaps not.


    I stay with the normal Belt of Lathander on my GF. The difference in stats is not so big, considering with the new stat curve you get 1% per 400 points. The bonus of Con/Dex instead of Wis/Cha is better. (And the set still works, though I have the greater cloak)

    Well originally Lathander set was awesome for GWF / GF / Anyone who wanted to be tanky, but Now it seems they are like "Lathander set is meant for paladins, lostmauth is meant for Rogues / GWF." and changed the stats to reflect this.


    I wanna see a artifact set bonus that has the ability like
    3/3 - 25 % of all damage you take is returned as health over 10 seconds. or something healy like that. haha
    People are way too negative, Why cant we just all get along.

    The same with the Black Ice belt. The old one gives maxed out +2 INT and +2 CHA which is good for my CW, the new one +2 CON and +2 CHA.
    The new BI cloak can only be purchased in IWD for a huge mountain of black ice, even if i would be crazy enough to go and harvest in IWD, it's not doable to fight 10 minutes (and survive) for 1 pile of black ice.

    Exact same in my case, and I'm still hoping it's an error that will be corrected in time ...

    Well maybe they wanted force peeps to swap belts (and for that cloak and arti if you want a set bonus) as the level 70 belts also have 2x +2 to attributes so is not a big upgrade.

    Are there other cases with the Greater having worse features than the regular? For weapon/armour enchants for instance?

    I was a little shocked at first too, but since I am a Heal Cleric, it actually works out better for me. Cha/Wiz being our main stats.
