Ascension Talismans

[Askora]

Curious as to whether anyone actually uses these? I've got some, but not leveled them up as they don't seem to be much of a gain compared to most of the other talismans.

Is there any chance these might be improved? Don't think they should double stats, but 5% seems pretty low.

I don't think I've used them before on anyone, seems wasteful when you look at all of the much better talisman sets out there. Maybe they could be changed to give Ascension status for one or two turns. That'd be cool.

I leveled a couple sets of these long ago to test them, but they are definitely the ultimate throwaway set out there. I just use them as extra greens, these days.

They definitely would be a lot cooler if they did grant Ascension! Methinks they'd have to be a lot less common drops though, for that to happen. lol

EDIT: It would seem that my Axis Commander-remembering brain was thinking of the Talismans formerly known as Ascension (now Warp) when I posted this, not the new taste of Ascension (formerly Warp)... curses, foiled again! lol The yellow Ascension talismans sit on a toon or two of mine with nary a bit of development, and represent one of two types of talismans in the entire game that I have never bothered to develop (the other being Ivory). I apologize for my confusion. For what it's worth, and just as Yup has already posted below, I have heard that they can indeed be useful when Chance talismans aren't available, but, as I've always been rich in Chance, I've never had occasion to bother with them.

Guess mine will just sit for now then. I think guaranteed full ascension of stats would be way to OP, especially as a 2-set. 10% or even 15% would be more appropriate I think. If they stack you could get some good numbers, HP might be out of line then.

[The Educated fool]

Guaranteed Ascension from a set of talismans would never happen, I don't think...even as a four-set of rare talis. It would probably be a 12% chance to trigger if it ever did happen though, like Freeze/Paralysis talis, and best as a (rare) three-set, I would say. Maybe one day...

Yeah true, I'd be fine with maybe a 15-25% boost and make them a 3 or 4 set for compensation. That way it's a decent boost but we can't stack them like madmen.
