Hanging up my CO gloves

After 2 months of play I have decided to stop playing due to the reasons stated below,

Knockbacks are so anoying. I think Strength, Dex and Ego should give knockback resistance to all, and the only superstat that boosts knockbacks is Presence

Dodge too OP in PvP

ATs suck real bad - it sucks that bad I made a Gunslinger and had full Legion gear and slotted gear with mostly Dex and had 8k HP and the team on Teleios Tower said my DPS is bad.

Sucks that every class needs Strength main superstat and slot constituation high to do be any good for the end game content.

Casting on melee skills? lol

Block = nice feature but the game is heavily dependent on it and causes the boss fights to be too static and boring, and the only way you win these bosses/cosmics is if no one falls aleep on their keyboard.

Freeform = big issue for me because due to the slotted passives and toggle forms not a great deal works together

Recovery is a big issue, when I had 4 rank 7 mods slotted one time I never noticed a great increase in my recovery gain.

Conclusion.....
ATs are so bad they make you want to freeform, freeform is a complete mess intended to make you do 100s of retcons, The visuals and character creation and costumnes are a big plus in the game and the only thing its got going for it IMO, and who ever is in charge of powers and ATs need a kick up the ****.

    He's not entirely wrong about several of his complaints:

    1) ATs (mainly the free ones) are pretty bad and limited. When I first played this game, my experience mirrored the OPs pretty closely. I had a soldier, a grimoire, and a glacier. The DPS characters felt so squishy and were largely unpleasant to play (no heirlooms, new player at the time) and the tank was...okay, but that AT in particular has pretty awful energy management due to a lack of energy unlocks. I left the game shortly after and didn't return until the freeform slots were given away back in...2015? Which leads me to...

    2) When you're learning the ropes, you really do end up needing several retcons. Since filthy silvers are second-class citizens who don't get freebie retcon handouts as they level up, they have to pay out the ****, and it's pretty costly at 40. It's an extremely punishing system until you learn it, and that learning is costly either in terms of ingame currency or RL currency spent on overpriced retcon tokens.

    So, while some folks want to be "clever" by repeating a phrase used by millions of toxic, socially-dysfunctional people before them to show disdain for someone leaving a game, know that sometimes, I-quit complaints can be perfectly valid.

    That said, good luck wherever you go, OP.​​

    I figured its all done on purpose to keep the money coming in, this is why i advise against game play videos until more players come in and these electronic cash store survival tactics arent needed anymore for the company to pay the bills.





    Courage is doing what is right even when it isn't popular or safe. Honor is retaining the dignity and virtue in one's self, so it can light the way for others in the darkest of times. Compassion is showing patience and mercy towards others, even when it isn't returned or deserved. A hero is defined by these 3 words, they set him apart from others as a beacon of hope and excellence.
