I was thinking, the old smithable items were really good. A nice balance between normal weapons and uniques.
I've broched this to various imms and gotten favorable reactions, but i was wondering if we could have these weapons load on high end smobs (agelmar, murash) on a low %.

I like it!

i was thinking that having them load in a chest that had a 100% chance to load a random one of them would be better. Its blocked by 4 doors, each requires a key from 4 different smobs. idk just an idea

that sounds really good actually.

throw in a 100% load for a complete high end recipe somewhere and i'll be more than happy! (i'm really struggling to find smithing recipes i have over 120 bits and still only 2 full recipes)

I was thinking something along the lines of this also. Either that, or using them as some sort of arena prize.

OR BOTH!!! ohh and add studded leather belts and combat staves to that chest load :P i realize they arent craftable but as there is currently no load in game....

Keep in mind that that the new smithing system includes items that are just below, comparable, and just above these Items.

how bout a smob (or smob chain/quest) that loads full recipes, high end herbs, and high end ore ( a lot of herbs and ore). It'd be a good way to facilitate trades. Mining and herb gathering can get boring, having some diversity on how to acquire the materials would be nice. Smithing in particular demands a lot of material, especially since you don't get the same thing on each attempt (wide range of quality for each item).

simpilest way i see is a mob that rewards you a pack with 10 random items (bits, high end ore, high end herb) for handing in the scalp of some super hard mob/ quest

Smobs and humanoid mobs already load ore and herbs on %. There's no reason we can't do what you're saying too, Ifrit, but is it necessary?

I like the (un)intended effect of having recipes, high end herbs, and high end ore on a smob chain, that being that newer players, and crappy pkers, will have an easier time getting gear.
