Bloodmoon
  • Added Mane Collar, Mane Neck and Terror Hands costumes to the Bloodmoon store.
  • Added Black Cat action figure to the Bloodmoon store.
  • The Bone to Pick perk for defeating Takofanes will now always display even if you haven't completed it.
  • Added all of the store costumes as possible drops from the Banish Takofanes open mission.
  • Addressed a bug with Takofanes where he would sometimes skip over the undead heroes and not attempt to attack and make them vulnerable. This caused an issue where the open mission could not be failed.
  • Adjusted the time Takofanes waits before attempting to attack an undead hero. Prior to the change the amount of time he would wait could vary by quite a bit, it's more consistent now.
  • Made it so the Bloodmoon heroes can be seen from a far distance.
  • Known Issue: The aoe attack the Doomlords use have inherited a soundfx from Eidolon.



Misc
  • Fixed an unlocking issue with the Wolf Sleek head textures.

    Moonstruck/Healing Runes still aren't healing anyone besides the user.

    Runes still broke, as noted.

    Nimbus of Force still broke, too.

    Which version of the Nimbus device are you using, and what are the testing conditions? Some of us tried Nimbus devices (both blue and purple versions) in the Powerhouse, and they seemed to apply the shield to other players as described.

    Healing Runes do appear bugged. Tested the runes from Pillar of Poz, Moonstruck, Expulse, and advantaged Condemn. They all seem to only heal the user.

    Why are we removing my post again? I filed a bug report two weeks ago, fixing said bug takes 10 minutes...

    THX. I will chase Tako face till I get one because Magical Girls must have one.
  • chaosdrgnz43chaosdrgnz43 Posts: 1,683 Arc User

    Why does taco face sound like Dr. Destroyer?



    I tried using Nimbus of Force around bloodmoon bosses and in alerts... it's bugged, and there's only one version of the device... nobody's talking about the legacy version or the bugged blue one from last year

    I have both Blue(Rare) and Purple(Unique) Nimbus of Force device. Both can shield 5 friendlies.

    Maybe you're using the limited version?

    Using a legacy Nimbus device, which I think I traded for a full one last year. Don't remember, except that I don't have any limited ones.

    Mine are blue quality legacy devices.
    They are all broken now.

    Looks like they were fixed.

    I know that feeling. This event is such a burden these days. I find myself wanting to do other things. This used to be my favorite event but since last year I find myself hating it more and more.

    I did many times but still not got by myself. And also never seen in AH or someone reporting about getting Shadowy cat with growing eyes. Is it really dropping?

    Yeah, it'd be nice if it got some sort of revamp to be less focused on big group nonsense and grotesque levels of farming. The Taco fights are fine as they are, but the undead hero train-killing is fairly retarded.​​
    (Hopefully) Useful CO Resources: HeroCreator (character planner), Cosmic Timers/Alert Checklist, Blood Moon Map, Anniversary Cat Map, and more (eventually, anyway).

    Now if only it would stop being so darned popular. I swear these durn players and their insistence on playing content we don't like, why it makes me mad enough to eat this sandwich!

    There's not too much else to do, tbh.

    This event should be about saving undead heroes not defeating them. It's completely not worth your while to do crypts now, it's better to stay on the pain train because you can grind coins and unlocks by killing undead heroes. If you stop to do a crypt and when you come back you'll be in a different zone without a pain train with all the crypts sealed by undead heroes.

    It's not popular though, most of the zones don't have pain trains in them and running crypts is not the norm. I got friends running around trick or treating and that's the extent of the solo content for this event for 90% of the population. Everything else is group content out of necessity. Get into zone 1 or GTFO.

    Well, somebody is doing something more than they usually do this month. I doubt we’ll have 5 instances of MC next Friday.

    they've reduced the cap so there's only 50 per instance, when the event is over it'll got back up to 65 or 100 or whatever it is.

    Throw together a 5 man team and smash as many undead faces as are needed to get the job done!

    seriously, the undead jerks you need to kill to open the crypts are merely tedious to kill when you 5-man it.

    One thing I would like is....if you get the mission to enter the crypt, let that portal always be open to you.(as long as you have the mission)

    It’s hard to do the weekly when you are in zone 1 pain train....and then you go in the tomb and come out and now in zone 2 with an undead hero to not be able to kill.

    That would be good. It's a pain getting into a zone for pain train, and then drop out of that zone when you leave the crypt.

    That's still a long time fighting undead heroes, faster for the crypt, but even with 5 people these fights are going to be 10 minutes, some of these fights are 5 minutes with 25 people.

    I really wish they'd revert the undead heroes to something more reasonable to fight. That way we could have people fighting them across all zones instead of just a couple.
  • revanantmoriturirevanantmorituri Posts: 397 Arc User
    I think the rationale last year was that the Devs wanted it to take 10-15 minutes per undead hero. Being able to max out diminishing returns on the event currency inside of an hour was not WAI.

    I would rather get one coin for 10-15 minutes of something I could solo then five for something that took the same amount of time in a group. There's less work involved, you don't need to wait for anyone else, and you get that feeling of empowerment.

    Disconnections suck :'(
    I should add here that I do like group missions, I think thrash the lich king is great, I like the improvements there, makes the mission that much more challenging. I want to do stuff on my own. I liked it back when I felt some of my toons were a match to the fallen heroes of Detroit.
