Fun Trinket Ideas

Was thinking about the trinkets that are in the game and I feel like many are quite boring. Some that I’ve seen that are nice are ones like the trinket where you summon a blackhole void ball thing; I do have a peeve for those kinds of trinkets though because they feel bad to use (for me) when I’m a paladin for instance.

Anyway a couple of examples for trinket ideas I’ve had:
Trinket that summons “minion” npc’s for a time that fight for you and work in the same way as army of the dead (of course not as many of them), I think it would be really cool to get a trinket from priory that “calls” some knights or something to come in and attack mobs or maybe it calls in some priests that give buffs to the party or yourself. Could also be really cool if there was a trinket that would summon some undead guys, which could easily come from a dungeon like Necrotic Wake.

A trinket that is a portable minigun turret would be amazing; whether it’s gnomish or whatever, you use the trinket and it puts down a little minigun that unpacks and just starts absolutely blasting full auto at various mobs that you’re in combat with

A grenade-type trinket could be really cool as well, pretty straightforward it’s just a grenade on a CD.

Trinket that is kind of like a ‘scroll’ from usually older RPG’s, which can do whatever at the developers’ discretion; maybe it could launch a big mortar fireball that explodes and burns in aoe or it could spawn a big fire/frost tornado that moves around a lil’ bit in a circle and does aoe damage.

Really the whole point I think I’m trying to make is that trinkets should be much more fun, like that one that has a chance to summon a cannon and shoots people from stratholme. I would love to hear suggestions or other people’s ideas as well <3

ALSO I AM REALLY BIASED BUT I LOVE THE PRIORY LIGHTSPAWN TRINKET*

Once the Rookery comes into next season we get a ‘buddy’ trinket in Sigil of Algari concordence.

Kinda feel you - in S4 I ran the one that turned me into a pulsing Zerith Mortis prism. Wasn’t bis but god I loved the effect enough (and lets be real you can use anything to ksm).

Interesting trinkets are rarely the best trinkets.

a fun trinket would be like the exilar of tongs an 1hr buff with 20 min cd and will not go away on death

I remember in Legion when the void tentacle heirloom was broken in scaling and made dungeon bosses fall over. Was pretty funny having the boss lose half their hp to slaps.

I’m confused, because those trinkets do exist. Perhaps not in the same exact way but similarly, we’ve had quite a few trinkets that summon a guy that shows up and does a thing. Also had trinkets that threw grenades quite literally, also Spears and anchors. There’s even a trinket out right now that has you jump through some hoops for the buff, the Treacherous Transmitter.

Tanks and healers usually get the more flavorful trinkets because most of the DPS trinkets that do something besides stat buff to align with CDs or nuclear levels of damage (Beacon and Belor’relos from DF) usually end up undertuned.
