Add EndRedux to Taunt IO sets

[gameboy1234]

I have a PBAOE that takes Taunt sets (actually only takes Taunt sets, it's Against All Odds).  None of the Taunt IO sets have any EndRedux, which is a bit of a bummer because it really needs the EndRedux.  I'd like to request that two to three Enh of each Taunt set get added EndRedux, just for folks who want to slot some Taunt into powers that also use End.  Thanks!

What stat are you suggesting they have lowered/removed?  I assume that any adding of end redx into Taunt IO sets would piss off someone when some other stat was removed.

 

A suggestion that might be more generally palatable would be to add new Taunt IO sets that included end redx.

I'm not suggesting any stats be removed or lowered.  Just add EndRedux.  That's it.  (Adding a new IO would mess with the number of IOs need to get set bonuses, I assume that would be bad.  We could end up 7 IOs in a set that only supported 6 for bonuses.)

I think losing a smidge of recharge would be fine in exchange for 20-30% worth of end red.

There is a built-in formula for what enhancement values an IO gives, based on the stat type and the number of stats the IO boosts. If you have a Taunt/Recharge IO, each aspect gets 26.5% at level 50. Change it to a Taunt/Rech/End IO, and by the established formulas, each aspect gets 21.2% at level 50. No matter what you add it to, adding an enhancement aspect to an IO is going to reduce the enhancement value of each aspect of the IO.

 

You'd do better by arguing for the creation of new Taunt sets that had EndRdx built into them, the same way that new Endurance Modification sets were added that had Damage built into the sets for powers that did both damage and endurance drain/transfer. That way you'd get the effects you want without affecting all the people who already have the existing taunt sets slotted.

An entire new set, not a new component in an existing set.

 

As @srmalloy said, it's extremely unlikely that they'll break the rules and make the enhancements in this set give more total enhancement than other set IOs.
