Nice , Belt drops in the Temple of Tiamat 25 man raid and the cloak drops in the Well of dragons dungeon , they also drop from lockboxes.

Also take into account potential changes to stat allocation planned by the system designer -

The base ability scores given by the new artifact belts could use some changes to better cover the classes.

Would something like this address y'alls concerns?
Lathander - CON, DEX unchanged
Seldarine - CHA, DEX (WIS switched out for DEX)
Black Ice - INT, CHA (WIS switched out for CHA)
Imperial - STR, WIS (DEX switched out for WIS)

This gives each class a belt that hits 2 of their three primary/secondary stats.

    At a glance, they seem to be a relative mishmash of stats, not necessarily ones you'd intuitively want on characters where you might already be using those artifacts.

    sad thing is that apparently takes the same amount of RP as the ones we have now

    Too much stuff in this game for me now. I do not have the time to grind for all the new gear since I'm already working hard on the gear I still have. I'm not sure how any new player will get all of this without paying an insane mount of real cash. I will maybe give it a long break and see if they come up with better ideas in the future that aren't based on just making money.

    I have to agree with you here. There is literally no content that justifies the amount of power creep being introduced every module (even the new dungeons). Everything made and everything being made can still be beat in equipment introduced before module 1 (except some artifacts to help spread out stats).

    Wow. Looks like Cryptic ignored a 7 page thread saying "NO!!" Why am I not surprised? Sorry to say the truth, but this game isn't going to last much longer if the Devs keep on ignoring their players.

    That being said, I hope the drop rate is much, much better than what they are now.

    And the Black Ice items DO look nice.

    To be fair, this stuff was most likely well into development long before that thread got started. No one honestly expected a major change in design focus on this mod. There have been subtle tweaks that offer a small window of hope. But honestly, the real proof of change will most likely have to wait for further modules.

    Ok... black ice cloak, looks amazing... I want one. Too bad i have 3 artifacts better than the beholder.

    And seriously, MOAR? you are just telling me I need to not only refine a belt (which I don't have) plus the offhand and cloak, so almost 15M RP?

    Is it time to buy another bank page and fill with resonance stones? likely.

    So let me get this straight.... I'm gonna need all 3 at legendary for the set bonus? If so, combine that with a legendary offhand and that means I'll need like 14-15 million RP for all this stuff at legendary?! This is completely unreasonable.

    This has to be a joke, especially after so many people didn't want this. This is unbelievably greedy. This will only encourage exploitation and cheating by purchasing off other sites as their is no way anyone can legitimately farm this amount of RP and I highly doubt that the amount of AD required for these upgrades is just sitting on shelves somewhere.

    Please think this through before implementing this. Many loyal players are very very upset by this!

    Just wow......................

    I'm starting to get annoyed by this game for real.

    Haven't got on in ages, might go back to FPS. Too much darn grind and power creep.

    Combine this powercreep with a loot system that relies more on RNG than anything else, and you have the formula to entice certain players to drop funds into this game to maintain their BIS status

    I've said it when the rumors first broke out. Cryptic, you NEED to introduce challenging BUT rewarding PVE content to balance it out so that players can climb the progression tree and be able to afford this stuff within a reasonable timeframe.

    You are only encouraging other means of obtaining these items from players who will lose their moral standards on it if the game does not reciprocate their honor and instead goes into an extremely greedy model.

    This tiamat encounter better be stupid hard - but i bet it won't be.

    Therefore we MUST have a much much harder dungeon...

    Why my post was delete? You remove inconvenient posts for you which saying the truth? This is getting worse, not only in the game but in the forum. Shame on you.

    I will wrote this again. Devs dont care about normal players, they only favor P2W players who made legendary eq in first day of game and now they are boring. Such a thing does not surprise me because they have to earn for themselves but if you exaggerate this, you will lose many players and small ZEN buyers like me and many of my friends and it will be the beginning of your end. Changes are need we all know that, but look, legendary weapon and belt is already big challenge for new players and non big ZEN buyers. Those changes will deepen the difference between players especialy in pvp wITH your genius class balance and matchmaking system. Saying nothing of rest of bugs and problems in this game that you should fix in first place , adding next legendary eq is in my and many other people- big mistake.
