The thing is, I would purchase tracking, but only if I had the ability to turn it on and off.

Yes, these ideas need the concept of active and passive (and buff) skills.

I like not being able to turn it on or off. Pick your poison. How bad do you want help grinding for that ring.

Tracking/stealth - that's why I like the idea of an item providing these benefits from my thread "monster faster respawn".

I like a lot of your other skill ideas!

nice attitude .....

Well, what if I wanted both, they would negate each other. And I would only use it for xp grinding, I'll stick to my save/reaload for the item grinding.

i have a full set except a shaf on my main anyway.

With my new found love with the Blackwater items because of dual wielding, I have a "blackwater build" character that is currently wielding the "Blackwater Poisoned Dagger" which inflicts the "weak Poison" actor condition on the NPC at a rate of 50% for -1HP/round for 5 rounds.
While waiting for the NPC to die (inflict & flee) and it taking forever, it came to me. Why not introduce a skill that behaves exactly like the "Better Criticals" does except that it would inflict more HP lose per round on the "blood disorder" actor conditions. And just like "Better Criticals" requires a critical hit weapon be equipped, this skill requires a weapon that inflicts such an actor condition be equipped. Maybe call this "Better Blood Disorders"

Creating an equivalent to the "More Criticals" could also work. Maybe call this "More Blood Disorders"
