    Loving all of the Brutal costume pieces! Just that the bracer and shoulder pads seem to hover and too wide for big toons. Still pretty wide even when you're at 0 shoulder slider.

    At least I have something to spend my Gs with now.

    I still don't understand the reasoning behind this, especially since Ebon Rift is rather outdated power with a lot of issues
    The heal can critical heal, but is it really worth it on a 15-11 Seconds CD power? even if it's considered a Healing Burst
    Does it have a target cap? how it will affect overcrowd areas like cosmics? or will it get eaten by pets?
    Why not make it heal while maintaining it? which would make it more optimized for that CD?​​

    I don't think the intention of the advantage is to turn it into a reliable healing power. The power itself still has plenty of potential just as damage alone, this is just an added benefit for healers who might want a quick AOE heal in a jiff. Basically, it's not meant to replace lifedrain or other reliable heals. At least that's what I understand of it.

    That said, that value for the one tick might still be a bit underwhelming, but I haven't tested it personally.

    Afaik, the heal from ERift's Endless Void is about that of R1 Conviction's, but in a 15ft AoE. That sounds fine on its own, but yeah the effective cd is pretty long for it. I guess it's been balanced around ERift being primarily a dmg power, unlike stuff like Vala's, Absorb Heat, or Elec Siphon (which are better for AoE healing, ofc, but aren't taken for dmg). Perhaps it does have a higher target cap than 5 allies, but I'm assuming not (that detail could be outlined in the adv's description, since it isn't clear atm).

    Either way, nice work overall on the new costume pieces and transforms :+1:

    BUG: The Weapon Dance Costume Transformations use the weapon skin of the current skin you're wearing instead of the weapon skin of the costume you're changing too. It would make much more sense to use the new weapon skin instead of your current one.

    Not a bug. Working as intentend.
    Or the way it can only work...

    Really great stuff overall, but one suggestion/request:

    Is there anyway Brutal Hair 1 (the bun) could have a version that doesn't include the little fan of hair pointing upward at the nape of the neck? It looks kinda ridiculous and makes an otherwise good part virtually unusable (for me, YMMV). Removing it would also allow for more interaction with other hairstyles in the "B" slot.

    Absolutely, it's strange that it was designed like that.

    Can we like, adjust the front and back of the pauldrons so it's touching the skin a bit? it's kinda getting distracting the more we look into it. XP

    Not only on males, but also females, the distance betweet the pauldrons with the model is ankward
    also they became TOO LOOONG with the sliders instead of remaining spherical​​

    I think that the gap between toon and pauldron is to make room for the fur attachment on it.

    It is annoying though as I would be more likely to use this piece without the fur attachment more than I would with the fur, but won't because it's just floating in air above the body far too much without using the fur.

    I use it with the fur attachment. But looking at the Chaosticus, seems like there's a gap because of the bulky chest wear. Even then, the gap is still noticeable.

    BUG: Summon Shadows + Devouring Darkness ADV still doesn't trigger Harbinger's Siphoning Aura despite being tagged as a Life Drain effect

    Also other powers that DO Trigger Siphoning Aura which I forgot to test, Thrash and Bite from Bestial Supernatural
    SUGGESTION: BITE could use a Description update since the description doesn't mention it's Tagged as Lifedrain power like Thrash


    Description on Ebon Rift's - Endless Void ADV is really vague

    SUGGESTION:Please update the description to provide more clear informations for the ADV's attributes (Target Cap, Ability to critial Heal e.t.c)

    That's not a bug, it triggers off of direct effects.

    Bite's description does mention it's a life drain effect.​​

    Indeed, but the Pop-up Tooltip doesn't!
    Also powers with Life Drain could use a Description update to make it with Bold HTML coding so it can stand out (Like Pyre Patch, Fear, Devoid are tagged with Bold and Colour) in their Descriptions
    With all those new powers relying on existing effects, it's kinda hard to keep up
