Edit: for Strife, pick up the quest Essence of the Fallen in Library, go pick up the 3 Cinderfall skulls on skeletal remains, return quest, equip the pocket item you just recieved.

The stats on the ring is shiieet!!! and the bonus

Yupp I was expecting the chance on hit heal, seemed cool for solo survivability.
First the Oathstones and now this, I will throw all my newfound ToKJewelry in mount doom.

None of the sets have had a real value in 1.4.8. I think most people complaining forgot that the most useful/OP procs got nerfed in later patches.
e.g. iirc the oathstone set was nerfed to a 480(?) armor debuff with a 2-3% proc chance, so that it only procced once every 10 minutes...
Same for strife and torment: the 10% proc on getting hit to get healed by 1xx was nerfed to 2-3% and a lower heal value (as far as i remember).
Both sets were absolutely useless after the nerf; what we have now is useful in the current T4 meta with the T4 starter equip, without restoring the OP factor of the old sets.
Maybe some sets can be tuned a bit (e.g. 3% parry strikethrough on torment+strife), but that should be argued in a proper manner.

Edit:
as far as i can tell only the set bonuses have been changed, the stats on the items have not been touched. If an item has 2% parry/disrupt/block/dodge it has normally very low stat values, because mythic valued these percent chances very high.
Iirc you need 47 weaponskill for 1% parry on level 40; same for BS/dodge and WP/disrupt. This gives an idea what it takes to buff these stats further, after every other percent buff has been taken. You don't get the "offensive/main effect" from those percent buffs though.

yes it did

I've already asked for a reason why the set bonuses got nerfed in ror, but no answer yet.

the armor debuff on the oathstones was 444 after nerf.
the wind set had lvl*5 all resist debuff proc (200@lvl40) on 2 pcs and iirc morale drain from the attacker on being hit proc on 3pcs
the current form of the wind set is pretty far from "useful in the current T4 meta"

What is time spawn Crushclaw from The Winds Impervious? Im rly cant find this mob.

Nice

nice guide.
waaaagghhhh!

None of the items have Start Quests. Simply go to the coordinates, and kill/talk to whom you need too. The first part of Fortunes Baubles has you enter a cave and near the end is a champion bat that you need to kill. Each of the quests is completed by whomever gets the DB or picks up the loot. So if you have 2-3 people you will have to complete each part a few times.

I did the Fortunes on my WH and Knight. Both where able to solo and it took about 45min each. I had to wait for a few others to finish getting their unlocks.

Oathstone of Karak Eight Peaks: [currently unavailable]

is there any update on this item im trying to get the set
