Clearly this means assassins need a nerf to compensate.

Also, **** vodka and red bull.

#1
Knee-jerk reaction:
HELL no!

Let's say, under optimal conditions (no mis-clicks, no need to mess with inv / cube/ /stash):
30 seconds, 'buff' duration.
4-5 seconds from when you kill the dragon, to get back to your stash.
~3 seconds to drag / drop / sig / eat a set item.

Which means, at best, ~9 sigs per dragon.
Add to that the (current) rarity of the eggs... >_<

Then I thought about it...
How many set items are you going to be dragging along?
How many set items do you get per K3K run?

K3K, being a non-summoning Uber means that you're limited to 1 clear per game*.
So, 1 game, 1 k3k run, 1 dragon run, all done.

Would work, if they weren't so damned rare.

(My experience with dragons, without a Book of Summoning (Don't have the gold for it when I'm running them atm):
I consider myself lucky if I find 2 Act2 eggs per 4 games,
1 Act3 egg per 4 games.)

* Of course, people (ab)using the Ennead Necromancers' summoning to FARM MOAR will have more then ~9 set items per run.
But hey, dem's da breaks.

#2:
Making honorifics is a costly venture, even more so if you want to make a specific one, since you'll certainly be needing to buy (at least) some MOs.

#2 would make that part of it less costly, and (perhaps) encourage picking up random dropped MOs.

So, since both are (potentially) good, no vote atm.

option 2

for the MOs.. is it possible so that they read

"item type MO"

instead of "item type mystic orb"

and instead of mystic orb it says now..

that would save heaps of screen area.

^ and I vote option 2.

ok well being fairly new to the median comuninity i have not yet even SEEN a dragon egg nor a dragon........but i would definatly go for option 1 because that makes it much more interesting than farm for 500 set items and nixing them.......
