I was under the impression (I think from reading the DGB forums) that you could complete the heroic aug quests, even if you didn’t have a heroic character. I just tested this theory and I was able to complete the quests with my heroic characters, but not with my regular characters. So, it looks like you have to be heroic to do the quests, and I apologize for repeating that somewhere around here.

What does everyone do with their F2P alts? I’m assuming that you get the best available F2P augs if you have a tank, but what about non-tanks?? How do most people go about equipping non-tank FTP group members for type 7s??

heroic augs are just heroic aug stats - good marjority of them are prestiege - so f2p can't use them - but the TBM slot 5s can be used f2p and give 32 of the H stat of your choice

Here is a broad list of slot 5 that are non-prestige

Here is an example of a Hdex list of slot 5s that are non-prestige

ah misread, sorry duders --- ive got no clue to your question lol
 
The HoT Feerott quests are just the Mercenary questline. Any character should be able to do the quest, but a Heroic character will be offered the augs in the reward window when they complete the quest. I ran a group through these a few years ago and my non-heroic bard and cleric completed the quests and got only xp/plat rewards, but my mage, who was a heroic, got a choice of augs.

You can do the quests on F2P or any other non heroic but you don't get the aug. Here is a list I have posted from SK forums for some good F2P augs/non heroic augs etc - there are a few standard ones like Jonas Dagmires hand and the Oceangreen line etc

Non-Prestige Augs: (This list does not include type 3 augs)

Shield AC Augs: link
Clump of Concentrated Ethernere AC: 40 HP: 110 HAgi: +8 (rare aug and task is hard to box)
Heroic Prismatic Gemstone AC: 35
Bayle's Heraldic Crest - Secondary AC: 32 HP: 75 (Quest)
Udumbara AC: 28 HP: 170 HSta: +4 (Quest)

Charm AC Augs: link
Heroic Jewel of the Self - AC: 30 HDex: 3
Valthun's Memory Shard - AC: 15 HP: 90 (Quest)
Slipgear's Gem - AC: 10 HP: 50 (Quest)

Core AC Augs from TDS expansion and earlier: (Note: these augs are all better than heroic augs)
Jonas Dagmire's Skeletal Parrot Shoulder - AC: 40 HP: 350 HAgi/Dex/Sta: +6 (TBS Quests Reward)
Darklight Emblem AC: 45 HP: 140 HDex: +8
Possessed Stone Fragment - AC: 35 HP: 240 (Best range slot aug by far, Castle Mistmoore, Revamp)
Tumbled Jasper AC: 45 HSta: +8
Clump of Concentrated Ethernere AC: 40 HP: 110 HAgi: +8 (rare aug and task is hard to box)
Udumbara AC: 28 HP: 170 HSta: +4 (Quest)
Tavon's Polished Gemstone Head/Shoulder - AC: 34 HP: 120 (better Shoulder aug above) - Mage Summoned: (not lore, can use 2 of each)
Gnomework Gaskets AC:12 HP: 300 (New Hot Zone)
Model XLII Spatial Temporal Oculus Face - AC: 25 HP: 155 End Regen: 1 (Quest)
Dark Soul Crystal AC: 25 HP: 155 End Regen: 1 (Quest)
Imbued Feather AC 25 HDex: 3 HP: 150 (Hot Zone)


These augs can be better than heroic augs if you are between HDex or HAgi cutoffs (Hxxx/25) (using 1AC = 10HP scale):
Bayle's Heraldic Crest - AC: 32 HP: 75 (Quest)
Frightening Salve AC: 25 HP: 125 (New Hot Zone)
Tavon's Burnished Gemstone - Feet/Leg AC: 34 (Mage Summoned) -- not Lore
Black Gemstone of Suffering AC: 20 HP: 72 HSta: +5 (Quest)
Cursed Obsidian Faycite AC: 20 HP: 72 HSta: +5 (Quest)

Non-Heroic Character Augs:
Blood of the Fallen AC: 20 HP: 135 HAgi: +3 (Quest)
Sentinel's Claw AC: 20 HP: 100 (Hot Zone)
Jonas Dagmire's Skeletal Hand - Hands AC: 15 HP: 135 (Quest)
Gears of the Mansion AC: 13 HP: 148 (New Hot Zone)
Tablet of Forgotten Lore AC: 26 HP: 15 (Hot Zone)
Gnoll's Gnawbone AC: 25 HP: 5 (Hot Zone)
Dragorn Fang AC: 10 HP: 130 HDex: +2 (Hot Zone)
-- lots of other augs from hot zones, but these still "make the cut".

Non-AC Non-Prestige Augs from COTF:
Enigmatic Teir`Dal Eye HP: 260 HDex +8
Spirit of the Wind HP: 260 HAgi: +8
Vial of Perfected Mana HP: 180 HAgi +8
-- Even with no AC these could replace some of the augs listed above to reach cut offs for HDex or HAgi.


Weapon Augs: Very few weapon augs are available before level 100 from any expansion that are decent.
Weapon Augs (Level 100+)
1H:
Exhumed Rune DMG: 5 + Rune Process
Dulled Gem of Evaporating Life DMG: 5 + 420 Heal (Target of target)
Blademaster's Writ DMG: 5 + 420 Heal Self

2H:
Petrified Titan Splinter DMG: 16
Drezdal's Skull DMG: 8 + DD process

Weapons Augs < Level 100: link
Dioptase Chip and others from the augmentation vendor in your home city.
-- Most of these are weak augs but either use one of those or better yet an AC aug: (link)


Purity:
Priceless Diamond of Ethernere (Quest)
Purified Flawless Faycite Triad (Quest)
-- That is it! Only these 2 augs for purity!

If you can get the augs listed above you will have a decent aug set when all is said and done.
