These consumables should be called "legal cheat items". It allows players to continue playing badly and still do it with the help of these items. I would prefer a meaningful and entertaining way of increasing the odds and making the player better at the game in the process. Ah well. I do not have to use it, after all. Maybe till hard mode comes, to compensate for my lack of skill... and there should not be any items compensating for that, IMO. This is why I do not like the EOTN consumables. --Longasc 13:48, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Eh, I dunno. They're certainly not helping improve the skill of the playerbase, but I for one like them. I rarely use them, but this one is cool if only because you usually have a lot of terrain to cover in any given PvE area, so it's nice to speed up the wait between fights. And the Powerstone of Courage has been a long time coming, and I think that's perfectly reasonable with so many long dungeons, now. Fighting the end bosses with high DP is basically suicide. Parties with only one human player benefit from them as well, and the bonuses are really useful since it's hard to make them do smart things like walk out of meteor showers or scatter before that damn scorpion uses his siege.

I absolutely love these. As a paragon its my job to keep party alive with protection and healing chants, and mobile with "fall back". These gwen consumables freaking rock for that. My role as team protector says "I MUST HAVE THESE" and i just go ahead and stock them on my belt pouch ;-) --Justice 18:24, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Good thing these can't be used in PvP ;P — Eloc 22:23, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The rarity of feathers

Almost nothing drops them apart from the odd Tengu and Griffon as demonstrated by Category:Contains feather. As you may have noticed the trader price of feathers is now a lot higher than any other common material because of this. --LemmingImage:User Lemming64 sigicon.png 13:58, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Saw them going for 7.5k a stack in LA earlier. --24.9.234.253 14:14, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
Tengu farming incoming? lol--Ryudo 10:09, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
EotN has increased the price of feathers because of Silver Eagle armor and these very addictive consumables. Generally speaking, I can make a stack of feathers in 3-4 runs in a typical "farm whenever, no pressure" day. It's a good way to make a few quick bucks without searching for tomes or greens.

Just by helping a friend with Nahpui Quarter I can get quite a few feathers. — Eloc 15:42, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Recharge bonus stacks?

Just wondering, does the 25% recharge bonus stacks with skills such as Quickening Zephyr? If so, any ideas if it applies before, after or adds up with Quickening Zephyr's (or any other skill's) recharge bonus?
