Yes, the +7 through +12 tools have not dropped since the wipe.
Neither have the crafted healing kits.
Gold strips & bars are also much rarer.
Epic Level Rings :o
Maybe make the thieves tools craftable? Throw them in with the trap crafting skill, to make that crafting skillset more appealing.

how about for epic rings you get +3 to three different (useful) skills. you'd be at a slight disadvantage compared to 2 +5 rings, but it would be a broader benefit.
two of them would at worst get you an "extra" +6 to a skill and -4 to two others. if there's worry about skill check creep you could alternatively do +4/+4/+2
