    Get Gloomthirst, it's the best weapon to get more cards for your team. I don't know how many burning items do you have, and whether do you plan to build a burning wizard to evaluate the Cup for you. Bloodchopper is nice, and you can try to prevent damage from Ouch! with Adaptable, but it's just another good weapon, and I'm sure you've got a lot of them.

    If you play all classes equally, I would get the Bloodchopper because it's hard to replace for builds. I would have my eye on Avakiria's Cup if I had no minor token burning item yet. Gloomthirst is nice and has its own niche especially in over-time effect builds, but Bless items overshadow it. However, Gloomthirst is the best way to move card draw to the divine weapon slot. It has replacements which provide better attacks but less card draw, though.

    Red Jon's Staff is the only thing I would consider. It's one of those tokenless staff options that fit a particular niche,
    the niche being a safe tokenless traitless staff. However if money's tight I think skipping it is fine.

    Off-topic, but, whatever. Do you even still play this game, @Ector?

    I rarely have time and energy for PvP, but I'm still buying the best items that may be useful for some future build.

    Save your money for something useful, although I'm a penny pincher: (and none of that has come from pizza)

    Stuff like what I listed IS something useful for me. I end up using these legendaries. Though I think I won't buy Eeygonnic right now - looks like a shield I'd love to drop, just not buy.

    But I just noticed something I missed earlier. Kreevian Radcannon (have 1). 9 Genetic Engineerings go!!

    How much is some legendary treasure / what is your gold total? None of those items you listed count as a must-have in my books, so if your gold total is lower than 10k and your must-have legendary list has 4+ items, I wouldn't buy any of those.

    But if you just want us to rank those items, I'd order them like this:
    1. Yvette's Buckler: I don't usually recommend buying legendary shield, but this is IMHO better "have 0" option on your list. If you have other legendary minor token all-purpose shields (eg. Bloodshield Of Xoc, Ichabod's Buckler, Kelvim's Buckler, Throon's Quick Laser Shield & Wellington's Shield), I'd use those first to see, if you really need more minor token shields.
    2. Smoke On The Water: Cheaper than those legendaries and I think you need two of these staves to make a dedicated Smoke/Water build. I haven't played with this, so I might be wrong.
    3. Superb Trickery: Again, ranked a bit higher only because it would be your first. Only item with 2x Elven Trickery, so additional points for being unique. However, I'd prefer Healthy Trickery for Elf Vampire and wouldn't really consider using this for Warrior or Wizard.
    4. Blue Destruction: The strongest of the bunch, but I find myself using Searing Pain or dedicated burn staves for my bursting needs.
    5. Quellic's Boots: Luxury item for mostly SP farming.
    ***
    Speaking of bad / questionable legendaries, my RR offers a new leg twice in a row (last week was Perfect Agility) for me to buy. This week I'm going to buy my first St. Gwendolyn's Armor.

    Just to give a counter to Pawn's preferences, I'd rank them as so:
    Blue Destruction
    Quellic's Boots
    Smoke On The Water
    Yvette's Buckler
    Superb Trickery

    This isn't necessarily to say that there's a disagreement in item strength, as much as a difference in playing styles and preferences - ultimately you want to buy items you will use. Also fwiw, BD I'd use more in MP, QB's more in SP as Pawn noted already.

    Last note... Be aware there's a reasonable possibility that burst will get a nerf down the lines (I have no actual knowledge on this, just my own conjecture), so keep that in mind if you're considering BD.

    Anyone using Sundersong? It's the only thing I'm tempted by this week.

    It can have some value in particular SP adventures. That said there are plenty of other options for armor removal.

    While armor has seen mild increased value in MP over the last year, it's still not frequent enough to spend two gold power tokens. I'd rather run Troll's Ire or Penetrating attacks.

    Overall I see it as a specialized and unnecessary SP weapon atm.
