Please buff non-summoning equipment. If you consider how many hitpoints and damage the summoning equip contribute over a battle, it becomes obvious how underpowered a lot of the damage/health equips are.

what in particular would you like to see buffed?
here's my top ten of almost-good items:
assault knife - needs pierce and we're good to go
blessed empire shield - nothing wrong with it but appears strictly worse than decorated platemail at the same rarity - what if it gave shield + wind shield instead?
brass cog - i know it's only an uncommon but making the bonus into a +2 would definitely help machine decks exist
cobra fangs - you could make them apply both poison AND corrode, which makes acid flask look dumb but you never see these right now
dryad thorn - well-intentioned item which doesn't particularly help elementals :)) what if it granted an ability to them instead?
large healing crystal - would be incredibly solid and maybe played in the arena if it always healed two points
memory claw - using this as path to victory is always so scary and precarious, haha, a modest hp bonus might make it more palatable + maybe you'd see two claw suicide decks
potion of aggression - have it grant aggression and fearless to the same unit?
shimmering trinket - now that the Wisdom buff exists maybe this thing in addition to the bonus could somehow grant it once per game
void charm - adding an hp bonus might make this really nice - its function ending so quickly into a match makes it questionable right now
here are some incredibly heavy and game-warping items which should give you an hp penalty when you equip them:
raven ward
treant root
magic mirror
rune of rage
probably cave eggs and raio blaster too
flashfire jewel seems balanced as a powerful thing which burns out straight away
every item which only exists to give hp/deck bonuses needs a secondary ability even if it's a very small ability
there's just no case where anyone is tempted to spend an eq slot on one

Thank you guys, this is an extremely helpful topic. As you can see we've just rebalanced all the heroes today. We will need to make a lot of tweaks and adjustments there, but equipment is something we could always do the same with a bit later.

Problem with topics like this, is that people who propose changes, tend to value things based on decks THEY are using or want to use, and how much something helps them or annoys them, hence wants tweaks :D
