Multi-use Ioun Stones?

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

Multi-use Ioun Stones?

Post by TheGreatMars »

I'm sure this has been said before but... why in the hells are Ioun stones single use on Arelith? They're once per days in base game! And even then it's wrong. Ioun stones are magical gems that float around your head and give you a color based bonus (Which they got correct) it's definetly not a consumable.

In fact, Ioun stones should by rights have their own equipment slot if they're used in a game, but Baldur's Gate used the helmet slot for Ioun stones which was accurate enough, but still not entirely correct.

What I'm saying is, can we at least return them to the acceptable base game version? We can even jack up their price, have them be the highly sought after artifacts they're supposed to be.

The new folks may want to change this, but they are that way because the Ioun stone VFX is a terrible thing, and I didn't want to see all of the players running about with constant whirling colors around them.
