Rare to Unique

In response to Anume's request for ideas to turn some of the rare items into unique.

Since casters are moreso hurt by this change. Wouldn't it make sense to change some of the high svs items to unique?

My suggestions would include;

Helm of spell turning (is a source of massive saves, and is far too easy to get)

Djinni bands (same)

Maybe broken terminators

Crested shield of eternal darkness

Soulreaver shadow

Whipping tail of the manticore

Fire lance (A very easy to obtain item that is a very good weapon in addition to hitting vulns)

Maybe Ancient scroll

Glowing ember

tiamat scale/demon tongue (has become much easier to make items burnproof)

Slimy breastplate (thought should be improved a bit first)

I agree.

I don't.

I see no point in upping the limit and then turning most of the rares unique.

Because there's a difference in having 10 sets of double plated leggings and 10 helms of spell turning. And the fire lance as he suggested, why would anyone play a feral if potentially everyone in your pk range could have a fire lance?

The helm of spell turning is unique, I think there are only 2 of them.

There was definitely at least 3 before the change, if my memory serves. (Big IF)

The change doesn't seem to have increased the number of uniques.

Helm of spell turning is actually already unique. Seems I overlooked it.
