    Looks like the +1 Craft Skill wasn't added after all.
    Thanks for listening to our feedback.

    Hmm.. we will see. Just because it wasnt added this time doesnt mean it the other +1 Craft Skill isn't off the table.

    Defender: let's roast these miscreants like a pig!

    Hero: yeah!!...wait, what?
  • jaazaniah1jaazaniah1 Posts: 5,561 Arc User
    Personally, I think this is the beginning of a new piece of end game content where heroes have to determine which is the real defender and then defeat the evil robot duplicate placed there by Dr. Destroyer. It's not a dev mistake, it's an opportunity!

    Is the ooze trail aura going to be a thing, or was it just a test for the cold and frost travel powers?​​

    The team wasn't happy with the visuals on the ooze aura, so it wasn't released. It may return at some point after some adjustments.​​

    Thank you for fixing the Retrain screen and, in doing so, showing that Gold toons can be re-re-trained from AT to FF if needed.

    Gripe Alert: the thing about low-res screens makes my inner pedant want to point out that most retail 15" laptops, even with integrated graphics, are perfectly capable of playing CO (or STO, or Neverwinter) at 30+fps. 1080p isn't standard yet. Embrace your low-tech players and their kit, there may be a few more players to be found out there... :)

    Besides just the two Defenders, I'm also hearing about there are two Foxbats as well somewhere in the middle of Westside, though nobody's saying where their exact location is. Will update the comment to know where they are if I ever do find them.

    I use a 4 year old 2G RAM Duo Core, and low-ish settings is the only way for me to play (as I use the stronger PCs for projects and work). So I agree with this. :)

    Hey uh... can you tone down the size of the pic in your signature? You're kinda not supposed to have a billboard in there...
    Squishy DPS builds that can solo QWZ w/videos.
    My super cool CC build and how to use it.

    That's a really nice feature in Adblock. Let's you get rid of all the forum-size violating signatures and annoyingly unnecessary animated gifs.

    Now there are two Defenders and still NEITHER one helps when an OV invades Ren Cen.

    My screen shows the same as yours, jer. Comes up the same size as spinny's and others.

    I think we'll just have to deal with it.
  • ealford1985ealford1985 Posts: 3,594 Arc User
    Mobile didn't show anything but desktop version or mobile showed extreme size.

    I haven't looked at computer desktop.


    Forum is bonkers. You can't trust anything here.

    Now it looks fine, but when it was pointed out, it was humongous and a third of it went off the page. Whatever you did worked... for now. :P
    I say stuff and I say things, sometimes together but only when I'm feeling adventurous.

    I'm @blu8 in game! :D
